@KevinTreaccar Was close enough that I went ahead and finished it, but I have half the month to figure out something that works better.

Wow! I love this! 🤩
The expressions of every individual goblin are so great!

Very nice! I usually start with a written list too...I like number 3, it has the start of a twist. Something that makes total sense (after you are shown), is consistent with the elements of the story, and leads to a resolution or next step of the conflict.

In this case the expectation is the moon is behind the earth, but what if it dipped into, illuminated, led to, the next place to go? Or is the moon a character that is refusing to go beyond the horizon and chooses a different path?

@mzameckaart I Googled it too.
I always find it interesting to learn the meaning of a name.
The results I got said the same thing you found, "moon", or "moonlight". It's the name of one of the male hyenas in "The Lion King". [edit: It's not one of the ones in the original Lion King, so it must be from a sequel, TV show, or remake. I don't think I've seen any of those. So that's why I couldn't really remember that name from the movie.]

Another thing I found is that "Kamari is a village and resort on the east coast of Santorini, a Greek island."

@baileyvidler thank you! Funny enough it was Justin Gerard's Artstation tutorial that helped me get my "pencil > digital paint" workflow sorted. Yeah I love his stuff. I should really check out the Discord.

@Jeremy-Ross It looks good with the ears all the way in the illustration!

Unfortunately I wasn't able to finish this piece in time for the deadline due to personal issues, but I will still be finishing it in the near future! Thanks everyone who has given me feedback so far, it means a lot!

Just wanted to give everyone a massive thank you for the invaluable feedback on my roughs. You saved me from taking a completely incomprehensible rough to final art 😛 Here's my submission. I don't usually work with such saturated colours so I'm finding it a bit hard to look at. I'm very new to working digitally so I find digital colour quite tricky. Anyhoo... excuses, excuses... 😃

@AngelinaKizz I'll try a second attempt tonight of the spider. Background darker and more transparent and try to get a sun rise in with better dew drops in the web 😅

This is a great concept I got the idea right away but some sort of sparkles or light stream would help indicate that she is lighting it.

@AngelinaKizz thank you!😊

Think I've done all I have time for. Going to sit on it for the rest of the day and then enter. 🤞

@ArtMelC switching the position of dad and kid really helps getting the attention back to the main story. The rainbow cloud makes much more sense with the seven on it. It is still stands out with the lighter colours. To me it seems to be floating a bit. Is it a balloon? Then it might be a good idea to hang it to the string of lights instead of putting it in the corner? The left wall seems an equal blackish colour, but the lights don't reflect on the wall? Small things, but overall much better composition and much clearer story.

@Chantal-Goetheer Aww, thank you 😊 Peww, yeah, maybe I try submitting more than 1 this time.
Time is the one thing I don't really have these days but I'll try 😁

@Chantal-Goetheer I like the less saturated blues/greens throughout. Very clear. Now, if you want, you can use a more saturated color – maybe the same blue/green to draw attention – to draw attention to the inquisitive fish. You also might be able to work in a red on Momma Fish to show her alarm and pull attention to her concern, too.

@kirsten-mcg Thank you for the response. I’m still very new to composition. I think when I’m in the thumbnail phase and I find a design I like, that should be a sign for me to explore that design further.

@Kristen-Lango Hi Kristen, not sure if you still want feedback on this being it has been 12 days, but if so, I need a bit more information on what the story is, as it is not clear at the moment.

@Kiara-Necessary I love it! Looks like a wood block print!

@Katherine so I get that this machine on the left is making clouds and I see that there’s a small cloud in the right image but otherwise these two sides feel disconnected. Is this supposed to be like we are looking at a spread in a picture book so we have the machine on one side and the flooded room on the other?

@Asyas_illos thank you! Glad you like it 🙂
