@Asyas_illos I LOVE this! I want to get to this level of painting!
Art is hard.

@Janette haha no worries!

@Gary-Wilkinson So, fantastic! I love seeing all the steps you've taken to get to the final image and hands-down #4 definitely has the most impact. So fun, I can't wait to see what you do with the other characters.
-
Thank you for all the comments. I hope I can expand more on these and I really appreciate your critiques
@cianamacaroni good points. I was going to put the hair clip in more correct position but it felt like it looked better to the side. I should have asked my wife about where is correct though
also I see what you mean about the glasses, maybe needs more of a touch up -
Started work on the Voldemort character and my original plan was to have him hold a flower that was falling apart to refer to his wand in the last movie. However, it doesnt feel like it fits the painting well and doesnt have much in common with the Harry painting. Im thinking to perhaps take out the flower and add a hose pipe that is spraying water. Any thoughts on that and the color choices for the painting?
-
I so admire all your work. It brings a smile to my face. The joy and thoughtfulness you put into each painting is so contagious.
-
Hi @Gary-Wilkinson, looking good! Actually, I kinda prefer the flower wand over the water hose, but both look cool. Perhaps a magenta background for added tension??
-
I agree with @Jeremy-Ross the flower has something more magical too it, and a little ironic I guess cuz he’s supposed to be a baddie?
-
@Gary-Wilkinson I like the hose better, I think it has a much stronger relationship to the Harry image with the umbrella dripping water, I can totally imagine the duel they are having, lol. The flower idea is super cute and maybe can be used for one of the other characters. I also really like the colors, dark and moody violet, I think it works well with the character. Can't wait to see this one done!!!!
-
@Tiffany-Thomas ooh I didn’t make that connection, good call!
-
@Gary-Wilkinson Such a wonderful piece!
I noticed his sleeve wasn’t resting/draping on his arm, is this intentional? -
@Fay Not intentional, but hopefully when I add light and shadow it should clear up issues, though im sure there are many
A little step forward, not there yet, but trying to work out a nice color scheme for it as I go. I'm not 100% sure about the hose addition yet though as I want to keep the voldemort wand pose, but not sure its working so well with that prop. Thank you @Jeremy-Ross @Asyas_illos and @Tiffany-Thomas for your critiques about that.
@Larue That's a lovely thing to hear
-
@Gary-Wilkinson Ohhh you could try a watering can (though it is less wand shaped), or a water balloon? Haha, trying to think of alternatives to the hose that still work with the Harry concept. It's looking good though, I still like the hose and I love that you've incorporated the house colors into each of the characters...so fun!
-
Not perfect, but i'm happy to leave it as it is and move onto another character.
-
Hi @Gary-Wilkinson, amazing! I especially love the leaks in the hose, well done!
When you flipped the canvas, I noticed Tom’s name was mirrored; is that intentional?
Cheers!
-
@Gary-Wilkinson I love it! Can't wait to see the next one!
-
@Jeremy-Ross Nope not intentional.... I'll fix that up, nice catch
