March WIP: feedback is appreciated
-
@miranda-hoover good call! I wasn't even thinking about that when I sketched him out!@Asyas_illos I thought it would be fun to make him have big ole feet. I may have to draw one of them with just his hooves so that people can see the anatomy of them.
-
Here is some more sketching and a face study. Does the rendering on the face look appealing?
-
More progress...
-
So do you think the reflection in the mirror would count as a neutral 3/4 view? Trying to be as creative as possible here.
-
@chrisaakins Love the idea of using a mirror! I would say it counts, as long as we can see enough of the body to understand the character from all angles. And points for creativity. Cool idea to have him sitting on the lettering too!
-
More progress. Everyone has been oddly silent. I hope that’s a good thing???

Hi Chris! I love the colors and textures you're working with, and that framed running pose is a standout. I think you might need to double check the body proportions in the center image to make sure they match the running pose. He looks kind of stretched out and maybe not like the same guy.
-
@Valerie-Light thanks Valerie! I will!
-
So do you think the reflection in the mirror would count as a neutral 3/4 view?
I probably wouldn't only because the reflection is less detailed. Maybe trying to make it too creative is doing more harm than good in that situation.
Lookin' solid though otherwise!

@jdubz alas, I am committed! Haha. Well hopefully I put enough detail in to satisfy the judges. Last time I did almost no context and “fluff”. This time I am going in for the kill on storytelling and creativity. Even if I don’t place I think it is turning out very much like I want for my portfolio.
Here is more progress:
One more Faraday to go. Sitting on the top of the lettering.

@chrisaakins So much fun! I love the layout and there's definitely a strong sense of who this little guy is. Haha, my favorite is the running shot which also plays nicely into the overall composition with the arrows pointing back towards the central image.
-
@Tiffany-Thomas thanks! I didn't even notice that. Happy little accident!
