One Tough Varmint!

What's your instagram? I wanna read your stories!

[Doodleworx]

It's 'doodle_worx' on Instagram. I actually forgot to write a story for this one, but I am going to do another version with the story.

@Doodleworx I guess that's a robo-bolo tie? I couldn't resist. I haven't watched it myself but I'm guessing you're a fan of the show, West World?

[Doodleworx]

@smithdraws I like that, 'robo-bolo,' and yes I like West World, but I am also a fan of old Western movies; I watched a lot of them when I was a kid (especially Clint Eastwood ones!). I used to love black and white old TV shows and movies as a child, even the Lone Ranger!

[smithdraws]

@Doodleworx I watched, Bonanza and Rin Tin Tin, and Hopalong Cassidy re-runs. And of coure Zoro, but not as much Lone Ranger. It's too bad Westerns fell out of favor with Hollywood. But I enjoyed the recent remakes of, True Grit and 3:10 to Yuma. Good stuff.

[Doodleworx]

@smithdraws I watched Bonanza and Zorro as well. Everything old is new again, so maybe Westerns will make a comeback once everyone gets sick of zombies!

I tried a night time version with lightning as I have never tried that effect before, as it seemed to difficult for me to do. I was pleasantly surprised with the results! I learned an important lesson, and that's : try something even if you don't know how to do it, you might actually figure it out!

I think this version is a good improvement. It's less expected and it works with the wacky subject matter very well (I'm using wacky as a good adjective, btw).

[Doodleworx]

@tessw Thanks Tess! I'm glad I tried another version. That's what I like about digital, the ability to experiment and try differenet versions that you didn't think of the first time, or were scared to try. I like wacky too; it's much more interesting!

@doodleworx i like the night time piece better too, but think the lightning is not needed. It also seems strange to be coming from a clear cloudless sky. I think it woul dbe enough to have just the night time sky behind them. That leaves a bit of a place for the eyes to rest.

Second comment: try muting the colors a bit in the background (walls/door etc) behind the characters. THat way it feels less busy and we pay attention to the characters the best.

@mirkah Thanks for the input!
