SCBWI “bloom” submission, feedback welcome

@Aleksey The one you stared has a lot more weight presence -that's what I like most about it. It be interesting if your dragon was so large that he/she was pressing on and leaning over a fence. I like the fence in the first one. Sorry this comment was concerning the 3 valued sketches a few drawings back lols -I hadn't noticed how far your drawing has come.

@Aleksey Now that I have seen the latest haha -the little girl is in profile while I find a lot of your other elements are in a 3/4 s view. Maybe if you twisted her a bit - I find she gets lost a bit -drawing version (not colour/valued added yet -I know). I read her as a second read and the dragon - 3 vegetable patches first.

@Heather-Boyd yeah i realized this too im gonna try some stuff digitally to improve it. And yeah originally it wasnt gonna be profile but Idk i kinda like it.

@Aleksey Right on time

I like the woodcut look of the sky. I get a miyazaki vibe, dunno why

[ArtofAleksey]

@Braden-Hallett you’re like the 5th person that’s said that! I think it’s the color palette?

[braden H]

@Aleksey In the intro to Laputa there's an animated woodcut kinda sequence that has the same kind of linework for the clouds as you've got here. I think that's what's triggering it for me.

It could also be the adorable hat and the red dress. Miyazaki seems to love that shade of red

[ArtofAleksey]

Oooo I actually havnt seen this

@Aleksey if you can find the original non-disney dub it's amazing The voice acting in the newer release with Mark Hamill is... in many ways atrocious (same with Porco Rosso). Though I suppose you can watch it in japanese with subs instead.

Either way, awesome movie!
