DECEMBER CONTEST: YETI

[Cayleen]

A hider, not a hunter: Kristoff the Kind.

Such a fantastic exercise for learning!

[Keeshan Defay]

I decided to draw a young Yeti because I like drawing cute small creatures/ characters. Hope you like it.

@David-starfas He's so cute..the hiked up pants just make me laugh.

Hi, thought the other layout was lot of distraction so here is a blank one.

[ArtofJoseGalue]

@Heather-Boyd Thank you so much! I had a lot of fun with him.

[Kayla Groening]

@K-Flagg I love him!!! His stance, his expressions, his broken tooth are all so great! You did a great job.

@Kori-Jensen Kori the judges (Jake, Lee and Will) select the top 16 from the entries.. and these 16 entries are critiqued by them and voted by SVS Members (subscribers) .. the critique arena happens through Zoom. Hope this helps

@Cayleen Oh he's so sweet, love him!

@shereen-said, your yeti is so fun and crazy, love him too!

Hi! This is my first try at the SVS art contest. I imagine a Yeti as a childish Antarctic prankster.

[neosmash]

@DaveLeekArt Wow! I like this character design allot!

[Kori Jensen]

@Rekha-Salin-0 Thank you so much that is so helpful! Do you know how they choose the top 16?

[DaveLeekArt]

@neosmash this has got a great vibe to it. I like the prankster idea. Keep running with this, I’m curious to see what comes out in the end.

[DaveLeekArt]

@Cayleen ok now this is cute. I always think I’ve got a good direction with my designs until I see everyone else and realize I zigged when I should have zagged. Great character and good twist on the kind and gentle yeti.

[DaveLeekArt]

@Keeshan-Defay another great take on the yeti. I love that I continue to see different shapes and proportions and takes on this classic character.

[Cayleen]

@DaveLeekArt Thanks! I had some other ideas, but I loved this gentle giant that kept popping into my sketches. I love your Yeti! Great expressions and easy to 'read' --- something I'm still working on!

[Cayleen]

@Kat Thank you!

[Kori Jensen]

I honestly should not be so strongly invested in this, but it is literally my first time submitting my art work in for a competition, let alone SVS Learn's critique but I really hope that I learn something from this whole experience. I am glad to have gotten as many votes as I did. In hind sight I should have done a WIP thread before I entered mine :D. I put my heart into this project :D. Can't wait to learn to make my illustrations more effective.
