As an animator it's important that I can adapt to drawing different styles. This Christmas card commission for Tom Kerin (http://www.singingmutestuff.com/) was a great chance to try this out, while tweaking the art style in my own way too. The first difference in style was that the lineart changes depending on the colouring, which creates a "gummy" texture, as a friend of mine calls it. These softer colours can be useful when it comes to shading as there's less attention on the outlines and more on form. To help make the picture a little more dynamic, I rounded off the background and tapered it inwards towards the top.
You can see the art style I based this picture on in the video below:
