Practice drawing characters
-
So awesome....have to say I'm a bit jealous I've never been able to do this....no matter how many construction lines and basic shapes I use....
-
Thank you everyone for the great comments!
Here's another practice sketch.

@natiwata @natiwata Super nice Nat! This is so hard and you make it look easy - i have real trouble with this - i was wondering about the profile of the girl - i was wondering what she would look like with a more prominent forehead so i cut and pasted to see - i think it may look a bit more like the girl in the other views for me this way - looking forward to seeing where this is headed
-
@Kevin-Longueil thanks! Subtle change but I like it!
Did some more practice with a crowd and fun angle, and putting Will's suggestion of drawing outside the frame to use. He found a gold nugget! Story starter.

Wow! Good stuff.
-
love the angle for the hand. The dogs eye is a little under-done and I thing his paw on the boy would be more dramatic for a dog...great expressions throughout.
-
@natiwata Really nice image!! I think you should paint this one! If you do however, I would put the dog a little higher so his neck isn't cut where it is... That's the only issue I see with composition! Great characters
-
Really terrific sketches!
-
I love the expression of the boy in the lower corner! Ohhh!
-
@natiwata This is progressing very well! I like the angle and your choice of having no kids behind the hand/gem. Between that and all the eyes leading it draws the readers attention right to the focus.

@Charlie-Eve-Ryan @Jason-Kellogg @Rob-Smith @Camila-Barrera-Daza @BradAYou Thank you for the comments!
@NoWayMe - Thanks for the feedback, good catch with moving the dog up a bit.
@Russ-Van-Dine - I agree the dog's eye could be more pronounced, I'll add that when I paint it. I had tried his paw on the boy and didn't get it quite right, but perhaps I'll try it again, thanks for the suggestion!

Update!
-
Super nice work!
-
@evilrobot thank you! You think this works better as a vignette?

Thats very cool!
-
Wow! love it! (I prefer the NOT vignetted version)
-
Wow, just great! Thanks for sharing
-
@natiwata Super nice as usual Nat! - really nice composition - i like the non-vingette also - i just wanted to see what it would look like if i saturated parts of the gold and the boy to make him pop more - i think i went a bit too far but i thought maybe the boy should pop a tiny bit more than he does? maybe not - possibly just a few more hard edged lines on him? - something though i think - here is the one i did the quick cut/paste/adjust on -
