        Hey all! I'm Anna and brand new to the forum but I've been listening to 3PP for years... I found the food truck prompt engaging and had a fun idea so I thought I'd enter my work this month! Looks like I wasn't the only one with this concept either, @jahn, but my image is a bit of a different take on the rubbish/garbage truck... hope that's okay!

          Here is my submission πŸ™‚ There are tons of things I don't love about this final piece 😬 haha I actually think its totally over-worked.

          And I think I made a huge mistake with trying to get creative with the horizon line... but let me stop pointing out the infinite list of things that are wrong with it πŸ˜„

          So, can't wait to learn about all the things I can do better next time!

          Also yes I am guilty of changing up the prompt a bit... oops 😳

            Hi all, here is my finished art for HTFYA - I submitted a pencil rough to the general forum and, from a few more pencil thumbnails, got to this one.
            Some lessons learned in using inks over water colours...

              Hello!
              What a fun theme it was. And fun to see everyone else's pictures on the theme.

                  @annastenger Oh that's awesome! Love your shapes on the animals and especially the truck. The basic lighting and limited palette works so well. Good work!

                    @thomas-young Thank you! I always have trouble with local color selection so I try to get around that by picking funky palettes [:

                        @AustinShurtliff I couldn't finish this one because my elbow is broken and I won't have my right hand back until at least halfway through August, but I think I'm going to post what I was able to do anyway, because the main thing I wanted feedback on was the story and composition.

                        I'm sort of embarrassed because it's still very rough, and it looks like one mermaid is diving over the old man's head, which I hope I could've fixed, but since this is all I can do I'll post it. Also, I was hoping to find a way to make it obvious that the seller herself was at at least a part-time mermaid.

                        I look forward to seeing the critiques!

                          Here’s my take on this months prompt. I feel like something is missing though, and I cant put my finger on it. I’ve tried softer line work (pencil), more details in the background, less details in the background, but I just can’t seem to get it to a stage where it looks done, but not overdone 🫠 Any feedback or advice is much appreciated 😊

                              @LauraA So sorry about your arm, hope you are well soon! I like how the image turned out, it’s much clearer than the first version and it’s a fun idea πŸ™‚

                                            Hiya everyone. I've not been active on SVS for a little while but I listened to the podcast the other day where Lee was talking about this prompt and he described almost the exact image I drew in 2022! So I thought I would submit it πŸ˜‚ It probably won't count as it's over 2 years old but I couldn't miss the chance to submit it after I heard his description! This is "Chaffy's BirdBox" (the bird inside is a Chaffinch - I'm from the UK).

                                            Any feedback and critique always welcome and it would be interesting to redraw it based on the critique and see the difference.

                                            Thank you!!
