JUNE CONTEST: Meet Albert!

[chrisaakins]

I ended up getting sick after family vacation so this ended up being a rush job. My apologies!

[Melissa_Bailey]

@charlottesart thanks so much! ️ I really didn't want to anthropomorphize him by putting him in clothes, so his cheekiness was a response to that.

[Melissa_Bailey]

@lizardillo another amazing submission! Love how colorful and cute and mischievous he is.

[Janette]

@Melissa-Bailey-0 LOL I literally just said that line yesterday!

[Gaelle Grizzly]

At the last minute! I wanted to test my future picture book character. What do you think of him?

[charlottesart]

@Melissa-Bailey-0 welcome

[Katie Carling]

Meet Albert the little Beaver who is so kind and tries his best but just can't help chewing on things here and there.

Albert the Ermine

[Melissa_Bailey]

@Janette great minds, and all that!

[Isabel Reyes Feeney]

Wiping my brow right now !

[Melissa_Bailey]

@Isabel-Reyes-Feeney love your Albert! Great expressions. Seems we had the same idea ... an Albert who's not a fan of human clothes.

[Janette]

@Isabel-Reyes-Feeney love his teeth!

@Gaelle-Grizzly He is absolutely precious So smart to use his tail as a border. And the cape!!!!

Such a fun challenge to complete! Albert is a kind, clumsy, and recently-revived Woolly Mammoth with a lot to learn. Luckily for him, the local Kindergarten accepts all kids, even furry ones.

@RHirsch Hey! I hope I can help, since I struggled to figure this out for weeks.

I'm using mobile, in this example. In the reply feature, you'll see the options for Bold and Italic, that's the bar we want, but we want the paper icon with an upward arrow, so you need to scroll or drag this icon bar to the left, all the way to the end, and click the folded-corner-page-with-arrow icon. This should get you to the upload image feature.

okay Peeps, I made an entry using traditional mediums and then finished it in photoshop instead of my usual starting digital in procreate. I also tried to keep desaturated in color (which is really hard for me). What do you think?

Love it! Great overall choice And you were able to get great detail with the watercolor, the close-up is awesome.

@Janette Thank you for the help!!
