@burvantill Cute scene. I love the little mushroom choir. Looks like a friendly town.

@markoman What a strange and wonderful image. Nice one!

[Chip Valecek]

Going to call this one done! Enjoy your trip...

I wanted to do a piece that would be a small step towards one of my larger goals: make my own comic book. I still have a lot to learn and practice, but it was a lot of fun making this little comic page. Hopefully y'all get a small laugh from it in some way!
The dialogue was added in photoshop, and the rest was just done traditionally and then scanned. If you want, please leave some feedback about what I could have done better and/or your overall thoughts (don't be shy, give me some tough-love! I'll only get better from it). Thanks!

Here is my interpretation. Chris Van Allsburg is a hero of mine so I thought I would try and emulate his style. !

@chrisaakins I couldn't get the graphite to photo well but oh well! This is a first time to enter a contest on SVS and I am a newbie at illustration. I look forward to it! Thanks for any input you may provide.

So here’s my mushroom village prompt. Would have like to gone digital however I suffer from chronic headaches so I did try out my new water brushes with watercolour. I wanted to depict so many types of mushrooms. The Story is about the suffering of a mushroom. He is never really alone, his mushroom family is all around.

@mattdyedraws Crisp and colourful! Nice work.

[bnewman]

@drawnbyshawn I looked at this one for awhile. Lots of great action here. Nice style as well.

[bnewman]

@chip-valecek Thank you! This is quality weirdness.

[bnewman]

@sweta-roy-choudhury This is lovely. Such a nice idea.

[Eli]

@corina magical!!

[Corina]

@eli Thank you!

[bnewman]

Well, I'm no closer to honing in on a signature style but I quite liked the way this turned out. If I had more time, I'd paint out the line work, or at least reduce it. Anyway, I'm just happy to have something to submit.

[Eli]

@chip-valecek love how this turned out

[drawnbyshawn]

@bnewman Thanks! Definitely one of the busier drawings I've done. It was a fun challenge.
