February (Octopus) WIP
-
@will-terry Thank you
Did my best on the chairs perspective drawing is a pain. Hoping to get a good portfolio piece out of this one... here's my next work in progress.
-
Finished the line drawing for the first side of the spread. Now onto the second side.
-
@evilrobot Great composition!! This will be a portfolio piece for sure - for critique the only thing I can come up with is to maybe not have texture or as much texture on the octopus so that he might pop more - really nice piece William!
-
The girl's expression is perfect! I can hear her making that yuck noise, and my face wants to do what she's doing because I feel her pain. Hahah way to go.
-
Love this, such a fun image!
-
Another WIP line drawing for the completed spread
-
These are great! I love the expressions and details.
-
Next work in progress. Started on the colors. Going to let it sit for a day and come back to it.
-
@evilrobot Looking awesome! It may not be something you want to alter, but the tentacle in the foreground seems a little off to me and feels like it should behind the candelabra, maybe it's just me
-
@evilrobot WOW. It looks amazing in color!
-
Thanks for the advice @Gary-Wilkinson Yeah I need to fix the front tentacle. I like it coming in front of the candle stick but it is a bit wonky.
With the background on the first page of the spread, do you think I should leave it blue? I was debating with my self over if I should just leave it, if I should throw in some flat colors, or if I should do a little rendering back there? I just want the foreground to be popped out no matter what I do. And on the other one not sure if I should put some texture on that blue background or erase it out on one side and have a gradient that goes to white. -
@evilrobot you could leave the background white, but maybe complete the top of the chair so it all pops off the page
-
@evilrobot Sick! I mean that in the nicest possible way. This is looking amazing.
