@smceccarelli thank you very much. No there is a pet cat as well I was starting with the spot and the vignettes to see how it would go before I do two full spread illustrations which have the third character in them. I have been trying to get that balance not over rendered and not too simple. I'm glad it's coming through. I'm just trying to finish all the pieces then I'll spend a week touching them up before I send this out again. I guess I'm just leaving the rest of the dummy book just rough line work? I'm not quite sure how far I'm suppose to take the rest of the illustrations in the dummy. I sent this out already in the other style with just rough pencil sketches and three finished spreads. I'm wondering if I should take the pencil sketches all the way to finished line work this time.
@mattramsey thank you for the great feedback. I was not real fond of that illustration. I was going to revisit it at the end because I was getting stuck on it. Thanks for the crit that should help greatly when I get back to it. I have a very hard time with night scenes...so of course I wrote a book where every page is a night scene....lol.....
