@Nyrryl-Cadiz Okay here's an update. I've been slowing down these days. I need to listen to that burnout podcast.

I'm trying a new technique where I draw everything in grayscale then add in color later. I think this composition will be very strong if there is a clear figure-ground (black part and white part).

I started working on the dad. I think the values are okay at the moment. I'm sort of guessing the lighting of this scene already. Oh and I already changed the pose for Maganda and her nanay. I think they look closer than ever.

Ooh ooh @NessIllustration look at this!

@Michael-Angelo-Go How pretty! This is a step above your other work, Michael! Try to add a bit more contrast to improve readability! For instance,the little girl's hair darker to distinguish it more from her hair. You could also move around the foliage in the window a little bit so the mom's head clearly pops out against the sky

[Michael Angelo Go]

@NessIllustration Oh I forgot to mention I'm not done. I'll add an update later today! I didn't add the fan as you can see.

@Nyrryl-Cadiz @NessIllustration

I just finished rendering the scene. I added some motion blur, but I'm worried it might be overkill. Should I add some blur, no blur, or only a little bit of in-between? Let me know what you all think!

[NessIllustration]

@Michael-Angelo-Go I prefer without, it just looks nice and crisp This is probably my favorite piece of yours ever! I love the limited color palette and the emotions. I do think you could push your blacks a bit more black to make the contrast sharper though!

[NessIllustration]

@Michael-Angelo-Go Like so?

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@NessIllustration no blur and perhaps increase the value contrast.

My next drawing.

@Nyrryl-Cadiz

I darkened the values, but now I'm thinking maybe the mother's shirt sticks out too much because it's a little saturated.

@Michael-Angelo-Go

Subtle but feels much better.

[Michael Angelo Go]

Progress you guys!

[Michael Angelo Go]

This one's taking a little while to render.

[Michael Angelo Go]

[Michael Angelo Go]

That's all for tonight folks. Goodnight. I know the lighting's really ....eh but I'll fix it's still a wip.

[Michael Angelo Go]

Okay, I'm finished with this second piece. I'll be honest, I hated drawing this because there were so many characters on this page and the lighting was pretty complex! I'm also worried that the composition isn't great. It's not as strong as the first thing I drew.

I made two drawings, one with blur.

And one without. To be honest, I think I'm okay without blur on this one.

@Nyrryl-Cadiz @NessIllustration do you see any areas for improvement? It's kind of busy.
