Chipping away at it. The orange is a place holder

Ok so this was what I was thinking. I’m gonna attempt this on paper next. Any feedback?

Ooooh love it that mouse with the glasses is amazing, i love him haha! The way you've framed the fox too is brilliant, i can't wait to see this in colour!

@Aleksey You did so well with the last composition, I like it a lot.

burvantill

Wow, this is looking great!

@Aleksey Nice! I think the sepia ink'll look really cool!

I almost want to se the fox looking not quite at the mice (up and away, maybe?) to show that he hasn't QUITE found them yet, but that may put his foxy face at an awkward angle to draw. Super nitpicky thing looks really cool so far. I get a wood-cut vibe from it.

Also, the little mouse skulls hanging off the spear is an awesome detail. a DARK awesome detail, but an awesome detail!

OOH! have the spear tip end in that nice empty space between the foxes paws instead of over his bracer. Stronger silhouette that way I think.

Lookin' forward to the finished version!

@Braden-Hallett Ohh I missed the mouse sculls...ty for pointing it out.

@Aleksey me too. Especially the sniffing they do in Jackson’s

ArtofAleksey

@Braden-Hallett ohhh good idea. Yeah i tried to do that with the face it was a tad awkward. So i left it. The spear is a doable thing tho.

So I did this in ink. I also made the sepia ink behind it and hated how it looked. So I’m gonna practice more with that later but for now I’m going to just choose values and will create a background digitally. These values might change as I play with it.
