@tessw Thanks Tess This one came from my awful month I have had with my own tooth needing an extraction. I really like the idea of tilting the perspective I was thinking of a chequered floor but was unable to keep it straight.I like the little boys hand gesture,I was thinking of my own hands clutching the armrests, but your idea comes across better,Thanks for taking the time to comment and redraw you have been very helpful.

It feels a little awkward that the end of the drill is not in the painting. You could make it funny and put a toothbrush at the end of the drill?

@holleywilliamson That is a great idea.Thanks holley

I feel like the 3 kids in the back are an unnecessary distraction. You have plenty going on with just your main characters. I love this idea. You did a great job making the dentist look crazy and creepy. I like how his teeth are so prominent. Maybe play around with pushing that? Bigger teeth and too many teeth? An even bigger mouth? Just an idea. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

I was actually thinking the same thing about the kids. If this was part of a story, I think the kids might work, but if it's a stand alone illustration, it might be a better choice to leave them out. It kind of splits your sympathies between the kid in the chair and the kids observing. Instead of the kids you could go with darkness or maybe some xrays, teeth models, instruments, stuff like that.

Ha! Ha! I liek it. I actually think the three kids are fin ebecause they're all terrified too. It really IS the greatest fear! I also think the kid in the chair could be zoomed in a bit more -closer to the action! You know how close that dentist is when he's about to nail your tooth with a drill But, I could be all wrong. Just a thought. The dentist could eb moved to the right a bit so that the boy in the chair could be zoomed in a little more with the "evil assistant" hovering over him. Then the back kids might not be as distracting either.
