August Illustration Contest: Worst Fear

[Doodleworx]

Hi all, my name is Kevin Jones (Doodleworx),

This my submission for the contest, it's called 'A Bump in the Night.' This is my first submission for any contest, so go easy on me (cring)! I redrew a favorite old ink sketch of mine in digital. The little boy is our eldest, who was obsessed with Batman when he was little (I could never get him to take off his Batman pajamas). Now he is sixteen, 6' 10", 250 lbs and obsessed with basketball. Those 'little boy days' seem so long ago now, as a stay at home dad, but this picture will always remind me of those fun times when he was little!

@lee-white !
Thank you very much for your critique, I took your suggestions and I pushed it further. I hope it got better.
Should I delete the first version then? (I am new on SVS Forum and I red this thread is just for the final images and that one meant as a final image but now is not valid.)
Thank you again!

[Lee White]

Re: August Illustration Contest: Worst Fear

A painting about humans exaggerated fears. Human believe they need a lot of protection and defence against nature and others. They act as if everything and everyone was their enemy and want to kill them or make them sick.

Here's my take on Little Miss Moffit (Spider Slayer).

[Lee White]

@lmrush good concept. Watch your values. Light character on light background...

[TessaW]

Worst Fear- That your dad was responsible for Bambi's mom.

[RHirsch]

Worst Fear - having to go into the basement as a child. Even worse when the lightbulb was at the bottom of the stairs...

@lee-white Oops skipped my value study again and it shows. I am going to make a checklist; thumbnails, rough , final sketch, value, paint-thank you Lee

[lmrush]

Thank you @Lee-White I tried to fix it with Kyle Webster's water color brushes (not sure how successfully) , then checked values, the value is a definite improvement-thanks

[Jason Bowen]

@lmrush I would try and make that dark area that makes your character pop part of the picture more. Is it a tunnel? is there a dark tree trunk there? a big rock? etc... just a thought.
