@Heather-Boyd yeah i agree. Im kinda making it up. In the old stories hes the protagonist, im kinda making him an antihero because of how self centered he is. My own little adaptation.

@Aleksey Sorry I guess not. Sir Walter Scott wrote a Scottish novel of an Ivanhoe.

@Heather-Boyd ah no this is based off of ivan the fool. And various other slavik folk tales.

Working on finishing color for a to-be indie-published book... had to share with someone! (SHHHhh for now)

Another ivan design. I think i like the pointier jaw more.

@Aleksey I agree gives him a more confident if not a tad overconfident personality/look with the pointed jaw and nose. I don't know anything about the character however.

@Aleksey I also like the pointier jaw. The round jaw gives him more of a lazy look than an arrogant look but the pointier jaw communicates his personality well.

Please feel free to go bananas on your critique
( saw discussion on safe words in forum earlier
)
I have been trying to challenge myself with different camera angles as well using a limited colour palette- still trying to get better at digital too. Have revisited a Hansel and Gretel book cover I worked on in turbocharging your creativity class many moons ago - concept of ‘its a trap’ - but I changed the whole composition. Keywords; ominous,scary.Any and all feed back welcome.
Thanks in advance

@Buddy-Skelton amazing, man. Love these birds, and your 2019 rendition does a great job of capturing their beautiful lines.

Was trying the silhouette method to come up with a character “shape” and it helped me when i drew it on paper. (Thanks @Braden-Hallett ) messed up the back hand a little but I got a good idea now of how i wanna make this character look.
-
@burvantill I think it turned out awesome. Great job at getting all those objects in there and composed so well. There are so many retro late 70s references here--love exploring your illustration. Your Photoshop tweak helped to focus our eye more on the girl, but you didn't overdo it.
