Today we honor the artwork of the master illustrator behind animated shows like Samurai Jack, Star Wars: Clone Wars, and Ren & Stimpy. Scott Wills is a visual development artist specializing in backgrounds for animation. His detailed, graphic style often combines traditional acrylic with digital mediums. His traditional techniques employ a variety of brushes, air brush, sponges, stencils, and masks to achieve precise edges and a wide range of textures. Scott even demonstrates his techniques in a series of videos on YouTube. You can check out his full gallery on his blog at http://animationbgs.blogspot.com/. In the meantime, enjoy a few samples below.
