Kamari idea
-
@AngelinaKizz i agree with what others are saying about showing the "new beginning". I was thinking maybe the monster could be holding a piece of paper that reads "new contract" and shows a picture of a different kid who needs scarring. Another thought is maybe give the monster a slight slime so it appears more melancholic rather than just sad. This is a really fun idea, looking forward to updates!

I love this idea! Thank you for spurring me in a direction that will help me for this prompt... I've been working on Folktale week so haven't really been thumbnailing anything however really just sort of not coming up with much other than a shipwreck idea.
-
I like the idea of a character having to move on emotionally because they've reached the end of an era, but I'm not sure that translates into this sketch.
My first impression was that I needed to read your caption to understand what was going on in the image.
But I think with some refining you could use this same idea and just figure out a way to make it read more clearly in a visual way.
-
@AngelinaKizz ah yes ^ what @Jeremiahbrown said haha that's more constructive than my previous comment
-
@Kristen-Lango no problem! It definitely needs refining to get the story clearer.
-
@AngelinaKizz I meant traveling bag. My autocorrect interferred
-
@Chantal-Goetheer oh ok! Sometimes I can’t tell which way the autocorrect took It. He does have a suitcase he’s dragging, but it’s also a very rough sketch
-
@AngelinaKizz This is such a fun concept! It kind of has Monsters Inc vibes. I agree with @Chantal-Goetheer about giving the monster a traveling bag, suitcase, etc to indicate it's leaving. Also maybe changing up the pose a little? I think maybe having it standing up instead of sitting might help further the story. Like he's peaking in through the doorway for one last look at his child before he moves onto another.
-
i love this idea so much! great choice!!
-
@kirsten-mcg thankyou! I'll play with his pose a bit, the idea was him slinking out from under the bed, which may show better when it's rendered, but maybe he needs legs and a sadder slump to his posture.
-
@Ladmireaux thanks!
-
-
@AngelinaKizz the walking comes across stronger, but I like the oozing better because it makes it more obvious it came from under the bed
-
-
@AngelinaKizz you could try to move the kid to the other end of the bed. The new comp looks good though, too.
-
@Asyas_illos I feel like I’d need a wall for the kid to be at the other end of the bed. I’m kinda digging the new comp, so I’ll try fleshing that out and see if it ends up being better… or I’ll end up in a few totally different direction lol.
-
@AngelinaKizz You’re welcome!
…and… maybe because I feel no one can ever decipher my scribbles… i just wanted to let you know, I saw it all from the start. ️
Most definitely not that any of the constructive thoughts were negative in anyway, but, just cause sometimes it’s just nice to know ️
i cannot wait to see the finished product!

@Ladmireaux awe thanks!
I love critique, whether good or bad... honestly we grow more from the "negatives" than everyone doting, so I'm never offended even if it seems harsh (not that anyone was harsh, we have an awesome community here). I don't appreciate rude, but bring on the nitpicking... I prefer finding all the things that can be improved on. -

@AngelinaKizz this composition is really nice too. The teary eye & the suitcase in the background clearly say goodbye. And the stuffed toy also conveys well that the kid is not afraid of the monster
