@Braden-Hallett middle fits the prompt the best.
-
Middle prompt will be a hit!
-
Thanks everyone
(I meant to do a smiley face but I'm keeping whatever the hell that thing is) 
I'm surprised it's the middle one! But that's probably because I identify with #3 more as an ex substitute teacher :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:
Middle one it is! I may do a spread to extend the train of weird stuff
-
I decided this was a good candidate for a spread (and also, I don't have any spreads in my portfolio...)
Rough sketch, basic value study, and a couple of colour studies.
I'm going with the one with the orange bus (it's closer to a real school bus colour and isn't so vibratey colour-wise.
My plan with the colour choices (I wanted LOTS of colours.) is to start with red on the left, and then gradually go around the colour wheel with green on the right. Then we pop up to yellow for the bird cage and street sign and finally orange for the bus. And then in flows round and round (I hope
)
-
And my goal for artistic development at the moment is work lighter and brighter in general. I have the bad habit of going dark and grey given half a chance
-
@Braden-Hallett this already looks great! I really like where you’re going with the color!
-
@Braden-Hallett wow it's already totally awesome
-
@Braden-Hallett I love the contrast and dark!
-
Sketch! So many kids! I fit in my webcomic characters and a few of the kids from my grade 5 practicum class
Tryin' to push sizes and shapes!
-
@Braden-Hallett looking great! So many lil people to paint. Love that shark in the tank LOL
-
@Braden-Hallett it is looking good. I love all the faces and expressions. Makes the piece stand out!

@Chip-Valecek @theprairiefox @holleywilliamson @Coley @Nyrryl-Cadiz
Thanks for the feedback everyone
-
Phew! Ready for inks! I think I'm happy with the variety of kids and poses.
-
@Braden-Hallett In loooove with this composition! It is so much fun!
-
@Braden-Hallett yes this is totally awesome!
-
@Erin-Cortese @Coley Thanks!
I never know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing that no one's finding any problems :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat: -
Inking begins! SO MUCH INKING!
In fact so much colouring.
I'm hoping to have inks done tomorrow and then paint over the weekend
If all else fails, I can turn it in as black and white :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:

Braden, this is so funny and amazing! I’d double check the steering wheel lining up with the orientation of the bus. Can’t wait to see this progress... I could look at all the details for hours.
