MerMay: Trucks in a Bottle
-
@Darian Oh, I'm already running into issues, haha. I have to be better at answering all the design questions before starting on coloring.
-
I'm wanting to wrap this up and upload it to the Mermay thread. Before I do, are there any glaring fixes that I might be missing? Depending on how much time I have, I may be able to do a few tweaks before the 31st.

I like it as it is, it is very outstanding in story and composition
-
I love this concept and really awesome characer design! I'm liking the composition a lot, especially that you have added details in the foreground as well. Very nice work! If I were to say something, maybe you can push the contrasts between light and shadow a little bit more? Or maybe add a glow from her skin/scales? I'm imagining that her scales would reflect the sun rays and create a shimmering and almost magical effect
But I really like what you have done so far! -
IT is fabulous! The only thing that struck out at me (because I am struggling with it right now) is the direction of light being consistent-does that make sense?
-
@lmrush Could you elaborate on that? This one was a bit tricky for me because I don't know how light reflects off rocks in water. There is one light source out of frame, and then the hole in the rock. I tried to make it seem like the light is reflecting throughout the room, but maybe that isn't working?

@KajsaH Thanks! I'll see if I can push the lighting a bit.
-
Wow this looks awesome!
-
@Andy-Nichols-Art Thanks Andy!
-
Awesome and clever concept!
-
@shinjifujioka Cute idea
-
@shinjifujioka I am no expert so @lee white, @Jake-Parker @Will-Terry step in here if you can. I tried to type out what I meant, then just decide an image would be easier. Obvioulsy this is really dark and the values are exaggerated, I did it just so I could easily draw the light directions I meant. I would love to hear from the experts as I would hate to lead you astray!
-
@shinjifujioka - this is just gorgeous! I love the character design - and that you didn't take the obvious approach in developing her aesthetic. Really nice work.
