Congrats, This is a beautiful book. You don't have to leave the forum. It would be great if you stayed around and helped others with advice and support to get through their projects.

@Tony-Barber

I like it as is. I originally agreed with Nyrryl Cadiz. This sounded like a good Idea but I borrowed one of your designs and tried it out. I think the original is simple, rough, and has a really clean appeal for kids.

Good job, keep it up.

PS: My 6 year old son and 8 year old daughter loved them.

I did this illustration for my class awhile back and looking at it now I'm not too happy with it and want to improve. The purpose of this assignment was to create something geared more towards a children's book where I challenged myself to do a garden like background (since artists seem to be allergic to backgrounds...) but had the idea to turn it into an actual portrait if it were hanging on a wall. Any Ideas how to improve? Project02.PNG

When Mirroring a rectangle in Perspective, which corner are you meant to draw through middle with? As I get two different widths.

Am I over complicating this in my head, just cant grasp the fundamentals

Hello All,

Attached is an illustration for my current book project. The client requested a mix of line art and spot color, so elements like the sky, grass, and trees remain unrendered. The typography is just a placeholder—a graphic designer will refine it later. I'd love to hear your first impressions and any red flags you might notice. Thanks in advance!!

Thanks, I liked the concept but ran out time to really push the story. Did the best with the time I had left.

Hey Everyone! I’ve personally been MIA on this platform for a bit, but I hope I can contribute this month. That said, let’s share our work for December! I made a Christmas card—Did you? I’m excited to see what everyone is working on, festive or otherwise. As always, this is a place for admiration, not critiques.

@_sadira_ This looks better! I wouldn't change a lot, maybe a little bit more detail in the background and maybe some other magical creature with the okapi, but otherwise it looks great!

I love how you portrayed this narrative without dialogue! Good composition and the dinos' expressions really contribute to it!

@ArtistErin Sounds great! The hand gesture will definitely add more to the rage expression!

Haha, your story is hilarious! 😂 You and your sister were definitely a mischievous duo. I’d love to see you illustrate the scene of you both throwing dirt clods at the neighbor's house and then getting scolded by the Sheriff. Those would be such fun illustrations!

@mzameckaart LOL these are the things I totally love about family life. OMG... I get caught scrolling through silly memes, reels and stuff on social media because I crave it, the goofier the better! Love how you saw this in my piece 😂

Thanks @StudioHannah !

@mag That is a great observation and I'm glad you pointed it out. I'm going to make the changes on my end. It makes me happy to see how the illustration has improved with the right feedback. Thank you so much! 🙂

@LauraA great work! I'm really happy you finished this illustration. I think it is really clear now that the ice cream is transforming the kids.

@annastenger Thanks!
