      I´ve started working on this sketch today. The story of this scene is Jack the Rabbit, who has to get 100 acorns on his bicycle before night if he wants to save his best friend from a spell that turned him into a worm. (sorry my english) 😉

              @aska Thanks Aska!, I´m not sure if the scene is too confuse, cause the tree house has a lot of details, but I think if I will carefully with the contrast between background and character, the scene will look good.

                      @Jose-Ramos Hey! I saw the painting version. It's look pretty good. But you could exaggerate more in the expression. Also you could place the sunset in the background and play with the light? Anyway. It's look's nice 🙂

                        @Jose-Ramos I was like wow that tree house is so similar to mine, checked my reference photo and it looks like we are using the same reference LOL back to the drawing board for me.

                          Hi Jose,
                          I am loving this design. The composition looks nice and the new expression on his face served the story well.
                          I agree on the illumination note, the source o light is not really clear.
                          Good luck!

                            Is it the same reference that you used? 🙂

                                @Doha Hi my friend, Yes I agree about the light, maybe now is better, I´ve made the changes that Guillerme told me.
                                Sunset light and a bit more exagerate the bunny expression.

                                    @Jose-Ramos looks good the only thing I see is that you are getting some tangents with the rabbit's ears and the tree house railings. Nice work.

                                        Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but the treehouse is brighter than the rabbit, which draws me to the treehouse first. Perhaps tone down the light in the doorway and window, and some of the glow on the house, and have a ray of the sunset focused on the rabbit. Also, took me a second to realize the bar dividing the doorway was in fact one of the posts holding up the porch roof. I would move the door opening to be more centered under the roof peak so as to avoid that confusing split.

                                          @tombarrettillo Hi Tom, yes I agree with your comments.
                                          The treehose is not so bright like before, some glow around the tree and house has been added.
                                          And the sunshine is there too, maybe is it so soft?
                                          I´ve improved the doorway ...what you think? 😉

                                            Very nice! Light and colors are good. My only pic (and it is a very small one) would be the small bit of light coming thru at the corner of the gray tree.
