Illustrating Children's books assignments

[Karim Benyagoub]

@Everyone I'm enjoying looking at all your fun versions, so cool to see different characters created
@DanetteDraws thanks for the feedback, yeah I agree, the arms would need some more work, which I would do at some coloring step (I would also change the size of the nuts and probably use only one nut

Meanwhile, here are my three foxes-like furries, had a lot of fun doing them

[Leontine]

@DanetteDraws Thanks Danette, for your comments. I had some big ears but for this I thought it would be funny to hide them, but some bumps can be fun! The feet are ment to be comical aswell, If she has Charlie Chaplin feet and leans on her left hip, its no pproblem to pose like this. Maybe its best to turn the right foot a bit and make it shorter. Ill try some different angles.

[Thrace]

Do these ears look right? I don't know why ears are so difficult for me!?!

[Karim Benyagoub]

@Leontine-Gaasenbeek thank you Leontine, I like your characters too and I like also your delicate lines, soft and smooth ones

[Steve Young]

Not bad going,

[Leontine]

@Thrace-Shirley-Mears HI Thrace! what a lovely mouse-girly! a view things for improvement: The left ear should be more to the front of the head. and the right arm is bending forwards, witch is anatomically not possible. Don't forget to place centerlines to help you whit placement of the face. Love the tipsy tail!

@Thrace-Shirley-Mears That's a cute mouse! And I see you used the bean-shape and contrapposto very well.

A little late to the party, but still found it hehe. I just started the ICB course. I am in love with the drawings so far! Part of what inspired me to start it heh. I printed the first assignment and was working on it at work...yay desk job! here are a few of my squirrels Critique is welcome!

[Leontine]

@Lynn-Larson I love them, especially the one who's reaching fur nuts, it tells a story even though it's only a sketch!!

[Rich Green]
