More texture, or less texture?

@burvantill Thanks :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes: I'm rather partial to the linework of 'a' as well. Closer to ink than pencil almost.

I like better A as well but can't say why

Royalties baby if they make you big haha. Thanks, I knew what they were but I couldn’t find the words. lols

@Braden-Hallett is it possible to just run texture along terminator/halftone area only? They all look very nice to me but I would vote for A if I had to pick one.

@Kevin-Longueil Thanks! It's POSSIBLE to run the texture along the terminator of the shadow only, but I think it'd amount to more work if you get what I mean

@Braden-Hallett I am thinking about what @davidhohn kept saying in class, "Get more by doing less."

I would vote whichever of these is the quickest/easiest for you to do. I would agree with @NessIllustration that they all look like your work and there isn't a big difference in delivery... just my 2 thoughts.

@Braden-Hallett Ooh, I think I'm in the minority, but I prefer B. With A as a close second. I'm liking the lighter outline on parts of B. All are beautifully rendered, though.

braden H

@theprairiefox I really do need to remember that 'get more by doing less'

Amount of work's about the same, I think. This has a lot to do with me kinda struggling to make my work look better without tearing it apart first, I think. (I've really gotta do that dream portfolio project)

@Johanna-Kim Interesting! Thanks for the feedback

Judy Elizabeth Wilson

@Braden-Hallett These are really good. I like the line of A and lots of the yellow texture and highlights on B. Maybe mix the two and see what you come up with. Like how your work is evolving! Cool work.
