My road race wips ^_^
-
Whoops sideways… this one is obviously not a drive through but a walkthrough it’s been cut into an old stump, so it’s not a living tree anymore.
-
Coming in late but loving them all. The bright colors, textures and imagination are all great! Seems like you are overflowing with ideas, lucky you!
-
Still working on characters lol
-
Not sure what else I can do here needs something else though I think…
-
@Asyas_illos This is great, I love the colors! The only issue I feel there might be is that my eye is drawn to the awesome lighting around the tree and less on the characters.
-
@Asyas_illos This piece has a really beautiful atmosphere! In fact I think it's my favourite of the three
The lighting really conveys a sense of grandeur and awe.I agree with @Frogpunzel though, that the story around the characters is a little lost. I know your initial concept was to have one of the rabbits be so in all awe of the large tree that it forgot about the race, but it doesn't come through very strongly at this point. The expression on the blue rabbit looks a little more "dumbfounded" and "tired" (because of the slouch) than "awestruck" to me (maybe change his mouth to a smile and add "shiny eyes"?), and my eye is actually more naturally drawn to the grey-green rabbit as he is brilliantly contrasted against the white light behind to tree.
Perhaps you could try changing the awestruck character to the grey-green rabbit, like he's just coming in under the tree and is looking up into the arch? He could be so awestruck that he's forgotten about the carrot he's holding and he's holding it kinda limply in one hand.

@JQ thanks for the feedback I’ll see what I can do! I know it didn’t go quite as planned lol!

Yes, it's not a "rabbit road race" idea, but I think your daughter just gave you gold for a portfolio piece.
I love the idea of "carrot-sel" with carrots replacing the horses. It would be even funnier if a young rabbit couldn't resist taking a bite out of one of the carrots.
-
@Asyas_illos You’ve got the medium and huge components of the composition, but I think you could use more small objects; particularly on the cloud the frog is sitting on. Maybe little flags sticking up or something?
Really loving this piece, the colors are gorgeous and I love the brushwork style especially on the edges. What brush/ brushes do you use?
-
@Griffin thanks griffin I generally use only three brushes in procreate one a gouache brush two a rake, and three 6b pencil for details. Plus a couple watercolor things for sparkles and finishing touches.
-
@Griffin i think those are in procreate though I’ve downloaded a few brush packs that they might have apart of… I can’t recall.
-
@Asyas_illos I love your saturated colors!
Re: your Redwood composition, it certainly feels like a magical place, and it makes sense for a tall tree to take up a lot of vertical space on the page- but I feel like the characters are really crammed into the bottom with other similarly sized background details, and having a hard time competing with the high contrast tree above.
How about a "worm" point of view? That would emphasize the height/grandeur of the tree while providing more real estate for your characters. You mentioned that that the inspiration was an old stump, but this is fiction- you could make a full tree that goes on and on, with no end in sight!
Lots of great work so far. Your graveyard environment is awesome!
-
Working on another concept. I wanted to do a spot illustration since I’ve been lacking those…
-
Haha these faces were too fun
-
@Asyas_illos Have you seen the Making of Frozen 2 doc on Disney+ yet? This reminds me of the girl animating the group/school/pod/dunno of reindeer running and singing.
-
@KevinTreaccar no I’ll check it out though
-
@KevinTreaccar but they remind me of Olaf with their teeth lol
-
@Asyas_illos The whole series is great, but her breaking down how she did that was hilarious and one of the biggest highlights.
