Luv WIP

@Aleksey Thanks! I'm hoping to reinforce that as i paint

[braden H]

@Kevin-Longueil Oh wow! I really like the window idea. That would really let me cast a different light on the parents. If I go back and repaint (I think I almost always do ) I'll totally do that.

As for the scale, I think if I put a shadow under the table and put the mum's feet where they should be it'll reinforce where they are in space. We'll see

Thanks for the paint over :smiling_face_with_open_mouth:

@Braden-Hallett: -Really lovely concept, and very challenging composition to pull off. So well done. @Kevin-Longueil Love the window idea. It really adds so much to the mood.

[braden H]

@xin-li Thanks! I may, instead of doing a LOT of surgery to add the window, play with some kind of hanging kitchen light. Benefit of the light without having to renovate the kitchen :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:

This is looking great! I've learned a lot by seeing your process to get to this point!

[djly]

@cbrocke I agree, really helpful as a newbie!

This thread is great, wonderful to see the work in progress and people helping to bring the illustration along.

[braden H]

Push and pull. Saturate and desaturate. Cool down and warm up.

Next step is flatten linework and paint allllll on one layer.

[braden H]

[rotub]

It looks so good and love seeing the whole process!

[CukiArtist]

Great work and thanks for talking so much about your process along the way. It's really interesting to see how different people reach their final illustration.

@rotub

Thanks

@CukiArtist It blows my mind how different people's approaches can be

@Braden-Hallett it looks great! But that kids red shirt is pulling my attention away from the blue parents

[braden H]

@Aleksey Is true! i was trying to keep colours on the kid's side all warm and was running out of discernable hues :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes: Red's super hard to work with!

Maybe I'll go back in someday and fiddle with the colours a little

[ArtofAleksey]

@Braden-Hallett maybe that kid just likes to be the center of attention
