Occupation: Monster herder (BW)

Did a occupation piece for my illustration class, seeing as I'm leaning more towards the whole fantasy/sci-fi/narratve genre I felt this may have fit the terms of the assignment pretty well. I ended up doing a color version of this that for best words ended interestingly, but since I have this file on hand and it couldn't go that far downhill I put it up. This piece was inspired by on of Frederic Remington's paintings. The animals aren't as active as mine and without that that since the piece is so straight it lacks much action. I still like it but this is definitely a learning experience. This bit of info definitely helped when I layed out my later comic pages.
