Revisited a sketch I did a long time ago - tried to bring to more finished state. A story about a puppy and a caterpillar friendship has begun to germinate

It's taking me forever to finish this piece for some reason, but it's getting there! Still need to add more values, shading and lighting, and there's a window behind that floating puffin at the bottom haha! The dog also needs to pop out a bit more I think.
If anyone has any feedback or suggestions then it's always welcome as I'd like to improve this piece as much as I can because i'm not totally in love with it at the moment

@hannahmccaffery I think the inside grey color should be more darker in values, as the bottom part of the red bottom part also bit. The left and right puffin ist almost like mirrored puffin, I would change it in some way or one away or it is to symetrical. Maybe I would change the position of the girl and the dog, that not everything is so middle centred or the big granddaddy more right to brake this middle..there is puffin in the middle of the wall sitting. And the background, I think I would like some white lines there? I love this pice, since you showed it on insagram...so I am happy to see it in color.

@MichaelaH Thanks so much for the feedback Michaela you're right about the values, i am going to start playing around with them as soon as all the last bits and bobs are finished.
Ah yes, you're totally right about the mirrored puffins, I'll definitely change on of them so that they're different! I think i could space out the Grandad and girl a bit more so that they're not totally centered like you say.
Thank you, it's taking forever though! Just can't seem to get into it!

@hannahmccaffery This looks really nice! I think desaturating the railing a lot would be the only thing I would say for feedback - if it is not on it's own layer you could use the "sponge" tool to desaturate it to see what you think - great image

[Buddy Skelton]

The latest thing I've made.

My latest doodle. I feel like I can see an improvement in basic composition and perspective.

@Buddy-Skelton

That's a fabulous job and love the textured details. It's a smart and serious looking bird. Your concept creation or a bird unknown to me? lols

[Heather Boyd]

@ShannonBiondi

It's has a nice punch (bold) -well done!

[ShannonBiondi]

@Heather-Boyd Thanks Heather!

I started this For the Creative Environment Design assignment in another thread and decided to try working it up. Lots of tweaks still to do on the line work and I’m hoping the next stage of values and shadows will clarify some of the busy-ness of the line but it’s been fun working on it.

@Kevin-Longueil Thanks so much for the feedback Kevin, I think you're right, it is a bit too saturated so I will have a look at that

[Buddy Skelton]

@Heather-Boyd

Thanks so much! It's my own concept based on prehistoric terror birds. Fascinating creatures.

[Coley]

@burvantill ooh I love the color combos here and that bit of texture too

[burvantill]

@Coley thanx . I’m doing the final in watercolor so it will most likely not look like this.

[Coley]

@burvantill watercolor sounds nice!

This is based off of a sketch by Ian McQue.

I finished the album cover I was working on and the band is super happy with it.

While I had a day to unwind and relax I did this quick piece for fun...
