Description
Concept art for a game proposal I worked on. This is my take on the idea of the Mad Hatter as a mysterious, skilled ninja-like warrior.Related content

Did you have some inspiration from "The Looking Glass Wars" Books?

Yes, this was done for a game proposal based on The Looking Glass Wars.

His hat is made of caterpillar silk, not pure metal.

Oh, that's interesting to know. When I first came up with this concept that information wasn't made available to me.

This is lovely! This is based off of Frank Bedder's books, yes? This is the first time someone took Mr. Bedder's Hatter and let him keep the white hair (which is how I always pictured him). Very nice!

Indeed it is! Really glad you like it (and the white hair)!

You certainly capture Hatter M's mystique well. Nice use of shading.

... and that is almost exactly how I pictured Hatter M.
This I think just became my favorite rendition of the "Mad Hatter".

*stares open-mouthed* Oh my sweet flipping lady goddess of crack, THAT IS PURE AWESOME.
Wow. Instant Fave.

This is totally Hatter M from the Looking Glass Wars series, yes? Terrifically awesome and just like the vision in my mind! He's such a super bad-ass character in that incarnation and you captured it very well.

ive noticed these seem to rit the discriptions from the book, the Looking Glass wars, quite alot?
you read it? lol
by the way i love them so much
even if they arent from the book, i like to think they are, cause they fit in so well to the discriptions they have there

Oh, he'S so cute and assasin-ish!
Soes he have weapons in his hat?
Maybe you could make them ridiculousy amazine, like a flame thrower and rocket launcher and tea bags in case he has the need for TEA!
I like hats.

Out of curiosity, was the game proposal made by anyone named Frank Beddor? He recently published a book entitled 'The Looking Glass Wars' featuring a Hatter very much like how you depicted yours, and I seem to faintly recall an interview in the national paper where Beddor said he'd like to expand his novel into a franchise of sorts.
Coincidence or not, you are extremely talented! Was this a completely digital creation?

Yep, this proposal art was made for that title... you got it!
I drew the initial linework in pencil but coloured it completely in Photoshop.

Haha!
