Final Version!! Winslow is in trouble!!

@Michael-Angelo-Go I actually love the original horizon line in terms of storytelling. To me, having the horizon line higher on the page and having the character facing the horizon makes it seem like the character is leaving behind a lot, taking a risk, or heading into the unknown (at least that's how I read it).

@xin-li That's good to know!!

wow, thank you this was super helpful, this is pretty much what I was looking to find out! I'll definitely look into these I'm not very set on what school I go to as long as the program it offers is a good way to transition into the field I'm leaning towards thank you!

@carlianne Thank you! I feel like there is so much to learn and expand over. I'm currently trying to relook at my artwork and work on stuff missing out from my pieces and these pointers are very insightful and helpful.

Hi @Tom-Burchell. I really like your illustrations. You have a very fun style! I like that Wix and Adobe Portfolio let you have rows of images instead of columns, something I've yet to figure out with Squarespace. I also really like that you've got the "heart" feature for you images. A few thoughts after checking out your site. I noticed that on each of the artwork tabs (Illustrations, Character Design and Picture Books) you have an "orphan" image at the bottom in its own row. Not a huge deal, but in my research I've found that it tends to look a little unfinished in the presentation of your portfolio. Reformatting the row so that there are no single images (or taking one image out) will make the whole illustration "block" a little more pleasing to the eye. I like your "About" page and that it's more personal and casual (I do something similar in mine). The only thought I had while reading it is that the display font you use and is a little hard to read. That typeface is great for your tab titles, etc., but I'd consider a more readable font when typing long paragraphs, to keep the reader interested. Other than that, it looks great! Hope this helps! Josh

Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum. Anyone joining folktale week? This is my first time, I loved the prompts!!! I wanted to explore this year's prompts with a little twist of my own. This piece is inspired by the classic tale of Knight and Dragon with a little twist of my own. Instagram : @navyaraju.illustration

@Georgios-Christopoulos I really enjoy this! Looks like its going to be a wonderful composition cant wait to see how it turns out

Hey SVS people! what do you think about these thumbnails? Are they clear? Do they look ok? Any critiques and comments are welcome. Thanks! Also it goes from bottom to top. )

You made amazing improvements!! I really like this new cover compared to the old one. My only comment is I think you should still say "by pheonix yip" and maybe less kearning on that so it's easier to read. Also, maybe adjust the cloud shape around 'Battle" so it overlaps with the letters just once. It's getting hard to read there too.

@aprilshin Thanks April! ️

Hi guys! I m currently working on a step to step timelapse video for my followers on IG , regarding the stages I go through when making a digital illustration. I upload a step every day ,and I answer questions regarding that step. Figured I d share this here if anyone is interested to see another approach to art , and also to get feedback and critiques. Here is the first four steps I made , rough concept-sketch-inks-colour blocked. If you have any questions, feel free to share! Cheers! G-Chris

Hi all! I’m brand new to SVS and am struggling to illustrate a few children’s books that have been on my To Do list for years. The task seems very daunting and I feel I am lacking in skills. What advice would you give? Perhaps a mentor or coach to help me along this arduous and exciting journey????

@theprairiefox great! Thank you!

@phoenix-yip No problem, I hope I helped, but now after you told me the story I can see it I this page. It's good. See you!

@Jeremy-Ross just checked it out! It s wonderful! Thanks for the feedback my friend!!

I think the values could be worked out a little better, the guy on the left (sorry, im not a star wars fan!) His arms are the same value and colour as his body and leg, and also some if the storm troopers ( i know that much) in the background also have the same colour and value. It destroys the illusion of depth.

@chrisaakins trust me I’m not better than you . Thanks so much for the advice! It is a part of a comic I’m making, but I think you’re right because I also want it to be stand alone. Thanks a lot!

@phoenix-yip Sorry missed your question @phoenix-yip. Yes it was just in photoshop, if you want the brush I think its free and should be easy to find. I like your update, but I think your should remove or reduce the intensity of the light in the upper left as I feel that it is in conflict with the composition. Have you also looked at using 2 different colors for the scene? I think you might get something really interesting if you played around with it

Hello everyone! G.Chris here.I hope everyone is in good health. Coronavirus is awful, but let s tell the truth. Artists know what it means to stay quarantined... Anyways , I found myself thinking a lot of new concepts for artworks now that I am confined. Here is one, feel free to critique and say what you like or don't like about this piece! Be safe and stay healthy! Giorgos Christopoulos / G.Chris.Artwork
