        @Valerie-Light Thanks for sharing this idea, I have started it and reached 72 out of 100.

          @PenAndrew how's your 100 things coming? I think I started with about 150 and had to narrow it down. Now i have to revise again because I need room for rickety houses and elaborate porches.

          I'm thumbnailing for a piece that uses the characters from my Storm submission, and fills one of the empty gaps in my portfolio, with:
          -full bleed
          -closeup of kids interacting
          -realistic interior perspective
          -shows off something my portfolio is lacking

          Which do you like? Screen Shot 2022-06-01 at 10.47.35 AM.png

            @Valerie-Light I almost feel like you could take that 100 and seperate it into categories of person, place, thing, action, feeling and draw out of a hat and get 25 really interesting illustrations that touches on all of your 100 favorite things to draw

              @Valerie-Light I have about 72, but I am not hitting a realisation point yet.

                  I'm working through some companion illustrations that go with the characters I put into my Storm prompt. Starting to think about narratives that these two sisters could be involved in.
                  Question: Is a sister who is part-bat and usually upside down a fun idea, or is it too weird?

                    @Valerie-Light I don't think it's too weird, but I didn't get part bat without you saying part bat. Could you lean into the bat more? Wings? hair that mimics the shape of a bats head?

                      @AngelinaKizz Thanks, Angelina, that's a good point. I can lean into that more, and spend some more time on the character design.

                        @Valerie-Light I really like the composition where the child character is being pulled - I think you could have a lot of fun with the poses in that one.
