          Maybe the smoke should be without outlines and renders a little more 3D

            Hi Leah!

            Congrats on landing your first paid gig! That's such an exciting milestone! Could we get a little more information on the project? What will the illustration be used for? Ex: a flier, a logo, an animation, etc. What point does the gas company want to get across? Did they provide any documentation as to what they wanted? I absolutely love the expression on this poor character, lol!

              so they are running a series of adverts, and this will be used on an advert promoting boiler repairs.

              something abt the perspective of the screen looks a teeny bit off...am i right?

                @leah Hi Leah,
                Well done for getting a job!
                I did a rough paint over, just to enhance the values a bit. So there's more shadow on the left side of Yoily. I've filled in the steam clouds on the left so they read quicker (although they could be a bit brighter still), and added a bit of shading to the top pipe so it is consistent with the light direction from the bottom pipes. Also added a tiny bit of shadow to the plaster (band aid). Hope that gives you some ideas. Sorry I can't help with the rest.Yoily.jpg
                Adam.

                  @leah hi Leah congratulations and sorry I have no idea on the money side but think your second version is better with the added rendering. Just one thing though the smoke puffs are like speech bubbles - which may be your intention but would more of a thought bubble with the little bubbles leading to it read better as smoke also maybe changing their sizes to less uniform.
                  I think it’s great though and hope they pay you lots.
                  Cheers

                        i do hear what your saying abt the smoke...however i think i like the pointy sharp bits leading to them coz it just looks more explosive that way
