      @mag I haven't submitted a dummy either so take whatever I say with a big grain of salt, but from everything I've heard they are supposed to be quite rough since the whole point is that it's not final and both manuscript and layouts are subject to change. Your sketches are clear and readable, so I think they're fine as it is!

      Does this placement look better, @Kevin-Longueil, @Larue or anyone who wants to give their opinion? I'm open to opinions about how to work out laying the text over the image, and how to split it up, as well. Thanks!

      Currently I'm working on illustrations with cartoony dragons. I am actually working on the way overdue "Dragonfly" prompt... In preparation for that I did a bookmark design for "St Jordi's day" which is a big celebration in Catalonia (the day of the book and the rose). This is for a contest at my son's school: This is done with markers, ink (callibrated pen) and prismacolor color pens for the greens.

      I think there should be more detail or something to clarify the “liquid moonlight” that is the floor or ground space. But as @Matthew-Oberdier said it’s a little unclear at what stage your illustration is at. I’m sure you have a clear image in your mind that will translate beautifully as it comes along just like your other works.

      I really love the feel of this. And the color of the curtain is really striking and shows the lighting of the picture really well. My recommendation would be to consider where the curtain touches the top of the frame. It draws a lot of attention to that point, so I might crop it a bit more or give it more breathing room. Thanks for sharing.

      Hello! My name is Madeline and I’m new in this forum. I’m 21, I want to learn illustration but I can’t study that in University because I live in Guatemala and there are no art schools or illustration degrees here. I don’t know how much feedback I can ask for in the forum but I like to know what others think of my artworks so here’s another one!! (I’ll try to not post too many, just the ones I like better and are more finished). Also sorry that my english is not great, my first language is spanish.

      @TessaW thanks for the feedback! You’re right about making the dog the focal point, I think I didn’t put that much attention on the dog because I liked the plants better But thanks to you and to everyone for making me see that I need to work in my values, perspective and colors.

      I have forgotten what size to build a digital image at so that when you zoom it there are no problems. I learned it somewhere here but forget where I learned it, can anyone tell me? TIA
