Hi! This is my first time trying out one of the monthly prompt. I've been looking at this board for a while and thought I'd like to join in! I love seeing all the sketches and revisions and seeing how the final pieces turn out.
In my image, I want to show a yellow bird with a broken wing, "meeting" the other main character, a snapping turtle. The bird is hiding for cover, believing that it is going to end up as a snack for this gigantic turtle. They end up going on an adventure later.
I'm wondering if anyone has advice on how to make this composition better? Should I adjust the angle? Maybe have the turtle's mouth even closer? The plant in the foreground is a cattail that the turtle stepped on. Is it distracting?
I'll work in watercolour/gouache and then edit in photoshop for the final image.
Any comments would be awesome!
Thanks!
