      @doro_thea Okay, see the color choice for the suit makes more sense knowing that. I admittedly don't know much about princess stories, so I wouldn't have known about the yellow color of the attire at all. Oops! 🙃

      And I didn't know that your Beast doesn't have horns per say. Either way, I would still think about exaggerating that part in your silhouette. 🙂

        @doro_thea Yes! I think the balance is much better. I'd probably tilt the line of the floor a bit more towards the right--but that's probably just me getting nit-picky.

        Looking great 💛

          @miranda-hoover Thank you! I'll also try the the tilting the floor, as I really like how your feedback influenced my design.

          BTW tried out the rhino beast. And I am actually considering to rethink my line up, as i think it is so much fun 😉 Untitled_Artwork.jpg

            @Jacy13 I will look into how to exaggarate the "horns". I think this is really good feedback that the silhouette needs to be more interesting...

              @krish-iyer Thank you so much for your opinion. What stood out for you on C and D? anything in specific?

                  @doro_thea is it just me or is the best really standing crooked?

                    @doro_thea I liked that they were both simple and like representations of the characters and in a way open to interpretation, I liked the silhouette style of c and how simple and neat d was

                        @krish-iyer Thanks for the explanation, I was really drawn to the silhouette style as well, so maybe I will make a second version later on.

                            I worked some more on it. Any final feedback before I call this finished?

                                  That's looking great! It's simple but so good , It's like the mix of my two favorite thumbnails! Great work!

                                      @doro_thea I like G the most and H a bit because you have the silhouette of the beast once again. I just realized how late I am to the feedback party but no worries you've got great help!

                                        @doro_thea The only last couple of nitpicky things that I see are 1: there is a tangent where her shoes meet the shadow cast and 2: The texture you have kind of starts to make the face of your main character look a bit blurry. Other than those things, I think this cover is great! I think your beast's silhouette looks much better in this version. Perfect for a portfolio piece in my opinion 😃
