March WIP
-
@jon-anderson Really great picture. A small thing is the reflection of the land in the water needs to be lighter a but lighter so you can see the separation easier
-
@jon-anderson This is really shaping up and looking great!! I agree with the other posters--I like the vignette idea. In the first images, I was picturing them at a little park, and it had a more intimate feel.
-
I tried to heed the advice about pushing the colors and eased a few shadows but I don't know if I did enough that it translates. I went for the original idea of the vignette and also experimented with the border. Which do you guys prefer?
-
@jon-anderson such a big improvement! I think that by simplifying that background the bottom one fits in really well (the border one). A couple of last things you may want to look in on are adding occlusion shadows and softening the shadow edge of the bench as it moves away from the object. Apart from that I think you have done an awesome job!
-
Almost done! I'll put some fresh eyes on it tomorrow to see what needs adjusting before deadline. To those of you who have helped guide this along I greatly appreciate the time you invested to help me!
-
This is cool. You really made some major improvement and fast. Great work. I love your little birds and the child frog is adorable.
-
@jon-anderson This looks phenomenal. I have enjoyed watching the evolution of this piece and your hard work has paid off. I love the expressions on both of the frogs' faces. The older frog looks so engaged with the little guy. I also really like the clever old/new juxtaposition--older frog with newer tech, newer frog with older tech (book). Well done!
-
And here is the final. Thanks everyone for the valuable advice that helped me move this piece along.
-
@jon-anderson Looks really awesome! It's such a shame your octopus file got corrupt, but glad to see you came back strong
-
Thanks, @gary-wilkinson ! I took the advice of saving to multiple places more often and it helped. My laptop crashed at least once with it this week but I was able to recover the file. My Bamboo and HP are still hanging on as I try to start this illustration life.
