February contest WIP
-
@smceccarelli cool thanks! That’s very helpful i was thinking about the silhouette too. I think i need to reposition the arm to make it work better. Im gonna try to change the perspective entirely too i didnt do the smart thing and make a perspective grid before i started the sketch
-
@Aleksey I love the character. I think you should give him a bigger dynamic pose. He seems a formidable character but looks a bit stiff. Maybe widen his stance,
try a gesture sketch to see what works. -
Very cool! He does look a little off balance like he may fall backwards. But other than that looks great so far
-
Ok cool thanks everyone!
-
I hate it when I arrive so late to the party....I also want a more dynamic pose and a story surrounding this character.....
-
@Laurasketches haha yes i have a story for this character but a dynamic pose must come first!
-
Ok i think this is a bit more open. So im gonna tighten it up and fix the pose a bit more but i think the center of gravity and the silhouette id much better
-
Ok I finally done with the sketch whew. Now im gonna work on the composition of the whole image

Heres my concept, gonna play around with the silhouette because it looks kinda out of place but this is my general idea

@Aleksey i might do a like, a wing in the night sky silhouette too
-
@Aleksey really cool! Looking great
-
Ok i think i figured out my composition more or less. Any feedback? I think the background will have some warm daytime colors but im going to keep them to a minimum.
-
-
@Aleksey I like the linework. What story are you trying to tell? Is he creating the night? Why?
-
@chrisaakins yup hes creating night. He is night birb.
-
Wow, it was quite a surprise to see the scene suddenly appear. I love where this is going.
-
Ok im sorry it took so long to block out the sun, but here is me playing around with The local color. Im keeping the composition simple to focus on the night birb. Would really love critiques here im struggling with the colors. Please and thank you
