Here is my local values on separate layers. Helps when it comes to painting i can create clipping layers to added shadows and lights.

nice characters, i think if i was going to make some changes it would about the hole in the tree, with the peanuts in it.
For the whole, i think where it touches the top of the squirrells ear. I think if you brought the whole down so it wouldnt look like it is flowing in to the ear, and the peanuts on the inside, the kinda match with the one he is holding, maybe if you twisted the one in his hand or the pile then the textures wouldnt line up so much. but shadding them different would help also.....hope this helped

good work!

Next step complete and always the most time consuming for me. Next up color.

@chip-valecek looking good

After my values I use a color layer and slap on my colors.

From here I clean up the edges and define the forms a little more. Add in some light and additional shadows and call it done.

FYI my kids didn't like the big ear on the bird so at the last minute I scraped it. My kids are my biggest critics LOL.
