      @Kevin-Longueil Thanks for your vote for D:) I really like that bold perspective and will have to find a better use for it in a future illustration.

        @Johanna-Kim I agree with your choice. I like B! To me it's got more life than the other two.

          @Johanna-Kim I also like B for the color palette as well! Looks very lively and vibrant 😃

            @Johanna-Kim hello! I am coming a little late. My favourite would have been D with an opened mouth but I like your final sketch, it looks great too!
            I can't wait to see the final drawing in colours. Good luck!

              Hi Friends,

              Here's the painted version.

              Some questions:
              Is there anything here that's bugging you (even if you don't know why)?
              Is Bongo cute enough?
              Is Clyde too scary for kids?

                @Johanna-Kim This is so cute! I love the soothing color palette and Clyde is perfect! I love Bongo's teasing expression. The way you've shown the underwater part and the distant foliage is super! I'm struggling to find anything to critique!

                  @Johanna-Kim I agree with Neha! It looks great!! I don't think Clyde looks too scary and you really nailed the teasing expression

                  The only thing that causes me to pause is the branch that bongo is on. I was struggling to tell if it was part of a tree or a leaf for a while, maybe you could just clarify that.

                    I love the look of the alligator in the back 🙂

                      Hey friends,
                      Just want to say thanks again for all the help through my process. I believe that all your notes and encouragement helped to make this illustration far better than if I had worked on it on my own. But I know I still have lots to learn.

                      @carlianne Thanks for that note about the branch. I made some changes (see detail) which I hope clarifies things. But even if not, I think it's time to submit this illo and move on to the next thing.
