Rian, A Kind-Hearted Jungle Explorer

Created by HMD Publishing Illustration Studio

Meet Rian, a hand-drawn jungle illustration concept of trail maps, paw-print tracking and fruit picnics with elephant, bear and big-cat friends.

Rian stands on a giant unfolded map as his animal friends gather round, leads the way down the trail with the bear and the big cat while the elephant follows, points out fresh paw prints, and shares a fruit picnic of bananas and coconuts by the waterfall. Deep jungle greens and warm browns carry the adventure. The supporting sheets add turnarounds, eight expressions, six labelled action poses, six outfit variations, gear from compass to trail snacks and a six-panel day-in-the-jungle storyboard.
