Illustration Friday: Fast
Cheetah is the fastest land animal and the pronghorn antelope is the 2nd fastest.

This was inspired by the 1980s era Safari Cards. I used to get samples of these cards in the mail when I was a kid.
Here is my sketch:

Love the retro feel to this, great textures.
Love the texture and final composition
Love the textures too. Charming idea!
Great texture and images!
Nice vintage look and colors! Lovely characters and great composition.
It's better for the antelope this way than have that cheetah run behind him :) Very nice stuff!
cool retro look you got here...
love it!
Thanks for telling us how you worked. This is beautiful. Nice going!
I used to get those cards too! I must have hundreds of them stored away, totally forgot about them until I saw this - happy animally memories. Gorgeous textures btw.
Very cute illustration! And great stuff in your blog! :)
