WHEN SUMMER VACATION GOES WRONG - Bear munchies

APHOTICMOTH

Hard to say no to momma bear and her cubs.

WIP, need to fix some anatomy and play with line weight. Foliage is a placeholder for now (I hate that one tiny shrub). Feel free to critique if you want to.

Thought about cropping it down a bit. Hmm.

@CLCanadyArts I would not crop the bear foot, but after it. It is funny concept, great work

@CLCanadyArts this looks so good!

@CLCanadyArts this is really great. I love all the action with the bears and the look on the face of the campers LOL. I would not crop it, I liked it before. But like you said play with the line weight. Looking forward to how you color it.

@CLCanadyArts you have even managed to bring the food items to life!

I like the uncropped version better. I also really like the way you approached the soda and momma bear's mouth. It's very dynamic and fun. The shivering dog is a nice touch too.

My only real critique on this piece is the cub with the watermelon slice. Compared to the rest of the cubs he feels kind of dog-ish. I think the issue is the proportion of his head to the rest of his body, namely that his neck and chest feel too small. He's the only thing really bugging me.

This is way fun! And that little crushed soda bottle is a cool detail.
I agree you can play with the line weight more. Have fun and push it!

@CLCanadyArts I love this! Your line work is really nice. It might benefit from a crop, but it’s hard to say where exactly, I don’t think the current crop works. For me it would be something I had to play with toward the end.

Thanks everyone.

@DreaGryphon Was trying to make it a runt, to add a bit more to the scene, would making it smaller work or would it still just seem like a mistake? Will probably just redraw it to fit with the rest.

DreaGryphon

@CLCanadyArts Ahhh, I see. It's not coming off as a runt. Having a runt is fine, but runts are small all over. I'd recommend redrawing it like the rest and just shrinking it down to where it is obviously smaller than the rest but still proportional.

Such a great idea, nice line work!
