      @Chip-Valecek I agree with you. Symmetrical compositions make my day any day! Thank for reaching out!

      @neschof cheers for B. Love that you spotted the difference in their footing!Thanks!

      @KathrynAdebayo Yeah that s true!if I go with an angled option and no the symmetrical one , hair must go towards the elf ,since it has a "departure" meaning. Thanks for taking the time to reach out!You are awesome!

      @Neha-Rawat thanks a lot on those opinions!!You are great!

        C draws my eye, but E feels so sad, and it sounds like a bitter sweet scene.

          I really like F best, it seems like the body images convey best the idea youโ€™re trying to get across.

            Hi Georgios, I think A. is more a dramatic composition.
            When you are drawing the final image, I would recommend that you use the movement of her hair and clothes to illustrate the fact that she is floating away, on some of your thumbnails it gives me the impression that she is arriving to meet him, rather then leaving.
            Great start, cant wait to see how you progress ๐Ÿ˜€

                  I like E the best because you can create an expressive curved back gesture -emotionally sunken (heartbreak) along with the slop in his arm. I loved D but D felt more like "no please don't go" desperation instead of a sorrowful goodbye (letting her go) that I believe in E you have created. ๐Ÿ™‚

                    @Georgios-Christopoulos I like A and B the most for conveying your concept and emotions. D is a really cool angle, but I feel the dynamism and lack of negative space detracts from the message you're trying to tell.

                        I like B because it has a very clear communication of the emotion - separation, longing.

                          @Heather-Boyd hey thanks so much for the opinion!!

                          @NessIllustration I start to feel the same way about D.I think the sky as a negative space will really add to the overall concept!thanks for taking the time to say your opinion!

                          @carriecopadraws thanks a lot!!

                            The emotion in this scenario belongs to the elf. And D shows the strongest emotion so I'll go with D. The over the shoulder pov of the spirit also shows the weight of her value in the story.
