Prince Eddy Ipad-dy

[Maile McCarthy]

@Leontine-Gaasenbeek Ooh, I'm loving the feel of this new one. I think just rendering out the characters in different values of the same blue, them maybe highlighting with greenish ipad-blue (Something like this image from Will's Pinterest page: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/432838214160085350/). I'm curious to hear what others think.

And I know you didn't ask, but I really like the composition.

@Maile-McCarthy Thanx so much Maile! I think i can use that inspiring note very well. I will work on that today, and show my progress! thanx also or the compliments!

[Leontine]

[Amanda Jean]

That last one turned out great!! Lovely work on the colour and lighting as well as composition.

[Leontine]

Yeeeah, the Printer send us the first prints before it finally becomes a real book. We have worked hard on this one, and we are so excited that people are already so enthusiastic about it. Thanks SVS, for tips and tricks. without your help, it would n't have become what is is now! #svslearn!

Welldone!

@Leontine-Gaasenbeek So exciting! Congrats!

Lots of fun stuff here! I have one small comment, though. Maybe this was just me, but it took me awhile to figure out that it was an elephant in that second picture. I think if the eyes were easier to find (darker, maybe?) it would have been a quicker read for me.

[Leontine]

@Sarah-LuAnn Thanx, this is the final result. The color has been changed, because the story has a timelaps from morning till it is late at night. So The color of the first one is to early time a day. When the elephant finds the Ipad, the sun should be down already. (liked the soft color of the other one more, but changed the eyes, ahead of what your comment was. i like the eyes better when they have a sparkle like this one is.

[Leontine]

@Rich-Green thank you so much!

[Leontine]

@Steve-Young thanks a lot!

[Leontine]

@Maile-McCarthy Thank you Maile, Also thank you for your valuable feedback during earlier stages of this. We've made a gigantic poster of the illustration you've given suggestions for to use on the dutch bookfair.

Here's a preview of all the spreads in a row!

[Rich Green]

@Leontine-Gaasenbeek All of the pages are wonderful. I really love the first one with the exterior of his castle/home. What a really fun building and so many details. I am in awe of how talented you are!

[Leontine]

@Rich-Green Thank you so much Rich! It was a heavy baby, I can tell you that, I love the progress I am making by taking the svs classes. It is quite addictive to view the composition, and color and light class. Also the watercolor class from @Will-Terry has given a lot of inspiration. I am grateful getting to know you all, and share the struggles but now also the celebration of a finished book!
