      @Jon-Anderson said in July art contest WIP feedback always welcome 🙂:

      One suggestion might be to factor in elements that support the summer vacation vibe (luggage on the car, etc.)

      I absolutely agree 🙂 I'm thinkin a couple of people decked out in fishing gear or some swimmers running back toward the car

        I really love the bottom one too, even the rough texture of your brushstrokes!
        Looking forward to seeing how you develop it 🙂

          @hannahmccaffery Thanks! I'm hoping it works out colour-wise with all the crazy orange fire and nasty brown smoke.

            I really like how it was going, but I need some more time to let the whole concept sit and distill a while.

            So I restarted 😃

            Somethin' super simple that I can rattle off by the deadline. Minimal backgrounds, almost all character.

                I like the second one, the gips is better to see and his trying to pick it up

                  @MichaelaH That's the one I like, too 🙂 The first one's neat but I've been doing WAY too many exaggerated perspective drawings.

                    I like the first ones composition but I didn't notice the broken arms. I saw the broken arms immediately in the second and then went back and saw them in the first.

                      @Braden-Hallett yeah, what the others said. Maybe even having him walking away from the ball for more heartwrenching drama. Poor kid.

                            @chrisaakins That would've been an awesome idea! Head hung and shoulders drooping.

                                Not as many WIP shots, sorry 🙂

                                From here on it's paint over the linework.

                                  @Braden-Hallett man you are so good. Even in the simplicity of it it looks like a pro page out of a children's book.

                                    @chrisaakins Thanks 😃 that's some pretty high praise 🙂 I'm glad it works with just the characters and not much else.

                                      @chrisaakins I think we need to kidnap @Braden-Hallett and do some sort of experiment to figure out where these super powers come from.

                                        @Chip-Valecek @Braden-Hallett or at least watch him work and steal his secrets.

                                          @chrisaakins @Chip-Valecek go watch more SVS videos 🙂

                                          Ignore the box labelled 'Braden's art secrets'. It's empty.

                                          Though if anyone's got superpowers it's the kid who managed to get his baseball jersey to fit over those arm casts :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:

                                            @Braden-Hallett man I can't believe you don't even know your own characters!!!! Of course he broke both arms sliding into home plate. They rushed him to the hospital and they put the casts on right way. Geez, maybe next time ask him what happened :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat: 😂 🤣 😂
