@sarahlash I really like how he is really up close to that giant foot.

[Heather Boyd]

@frita I think it would fit in nicely with a children's book style.

@xin-li I love the color choices, and how you did the final render. Beautiful!!

@xin-li I love the concept! Rendering is spot on!

@Heather-Boyd thank you! I really wanted to try this perspective. My initial thumbnails had the POV on the ground looking up at Will with a flying alien in a spacesuit above him.. but when I got the idea for a reflection in the footprint I ditched the alien idea for an easier read. It was fun to come up with and execute this concept.

@Heather-Boyd thank you! Flowers and trees and I guess nature in general are some of my favorite things to draw!

@demotlj Yeah keep experimenting with different things thinking "THIS seems like the medium I like" and then find something else hah. I think I'm coming to a point where I'm going to end up with a really mixed media approach. I just realized not too long ago that I'm using acrylics a lot like water colors where I was doing all kinds of watered down washes and glazes to get it to do what I wanted. Someone just pointed it out to me so I started messing with watercolor but I'm still using watered down acrylic in the process. It's gettin' weird.

Do you ever reach for the undo key after you paint an actual stroke in a way you didn't like? I do that WAY too much lol.

@xin-li I rotated the canvas MANY times before I settled on the original way up, lol
