Making Narrative pieces- Tortoise and the Hare project
-
I feel you! I really love your designs and they look so much fun!
I also love your color scheme
-
Such good advice and I love your story twist idea!
-
@nyrrylcadiz I like the characters and the flying stones (meteors) have more deep in values, than the characters, the hare the most, is missing some dark values.
-
Here’s an update! I feel that it’s done. Ok, I’m ready to move on to the next.

@nyrrylcadiz It made me happy to see this update! Great piece, and great idea overall. I can't wait to see more of your progress on this project.
-
@lenwen @Johanna-Kim @MichaelaH @animatosoor thank you!
-
@nyrrylcadiz cool, I missed this thread before now but I love love your artwork!
-
@nyrrylcadiz The rabbit very much reminds of me Zap Brannigan from Futurama
so I think you nailed his attitude.Best detail for me is the fact that the turtle is wearing his suit underneath his shell. Awesome design!
-
@nyrrylcadiz This turned out so awesome! Looking forward to seeing how this series progresses.
-
@Braden-Hallett lol! Hahahahahahafhaahaahahahahhahha!
it’s funny you mentioned that coz I always thought that hare looked like Fry! But yes his obnoxious confidence does remind me of Zap! I was even planning to do a Fry meme with Hare instead. Hehe
-
I love the colors you used for the piece , my eyes instantly know where to look. It's adorable
-
@nyrrylcadiz I (like @Braden-Hallett ) was going to say that my favorite thing was the turtle and how he looks like he had to put his shell on over his clothes. He’s such a round and super cute guy! I look forward to seeing more pieces from this project. It’s a fun concept.
-
Woah awesome work! I really your design process on this. The characters are adorable, especially the tortoise, love how he turned out. I'm interested in seeing how you illustrate the rest.
-
Here’s another update! I still have a lot to do but I just want to show you guys where I’m at. Any thoughts? I’d be happy to hear them. Thanks.

@Coley @Corlette-Douglas @JennyJones @Jorge-Valentin thank you!

@nyrrylcadiz
I think it looks great. I love narrative pieces and I think you have a great thing going here.
Can I ask what you use to illustrate?
I am a traditional artist using color pencil, watercolor and graphite at this point and painting in acrylic but I feel that it might be a good idea for me to start using a digital platform for my work.I love the concept of your current project and I think you have a strong sense of what you are communicating.
I can imagine this being interesting to kids.Jessica Jolicoeur - https://jessicajolicoeur.wixsite.com/jessicajolicoeur

@Jessica-Jolicoeur hi! I’m using Procreate on my ipad
-
@nyrrylcadiz
I have been doing research and I have heard about procreate quite a bit.
I love traditional media so I am reluctant to get into a digital format but I also want to see what I could do with it.
Thank you. -
@Jessica-Jolicoeur I use Procreate for all my digital stuff too. It’s very user friendly and the brushes can look pretty traditional. I work to try to get my digital work to look as traditional as possible and I feel like Procreate it easy to use in a “traditional “ way or with masks and zillions of layers. Lots of tutorials out there on YouTube,Skillshare, and through Procreate itself. Go for it!

I don't mean to hijack the thread but have you three seen Abbie Nurse's Uproot Brushes and Layer system for recreating watercolor in Procreate? If you're into natural looking watercolor, her method is really hard to beat. I'm a big fan of all her brushes, but her watercolor method is really top notch if you're into that. She doesn't just create the brushes, she uses layers in a great way to enhance translucency. It's really remarkable (at least to me, anyway).
