MARCH CONTEST: Fairy-Tale Traveler

[Sara Nilsson]

Hi this is Eira, her name means snow and she lives in a secret valley that's under attack. Her love for and abilities to connect with animals is the reson she's been the chosen one to find help saving the valley from goblins. Off she goes scared and feeling lonely.
Before she began her journey the elders gave her an amulet,

-keep this close to your hart, they said.
And so she did, not knowing why, until she met Badge! a grumpy but kind badger. From this day he followed alongside her on the quest she's been given, finding help to save her secret valley.

(I'm not used to in English, so I hope this story isn't totally off!)

I worked more on this than I usually do, I have the research and story but working on translating it in pictures. Here lies my weakness I think, most of the time I go for pretty rather then expression, trying to change but old habits are hard to fix. Good luck everyone

Hello! First time entering as an SVS member- super excited!

[JoshSchouwstra]

Don't let his size and friendliness fool you, he will go as far as it takes to find help for
his peaceful village. He'll even fight off the goblins himself if he has to!

[cathy spee]

Here we go again. Another nerve wracking submition. However the process of designing and thinking through things is helping me greatly. I still rather do all my art traditionally. I hope to get better at it. Good luck everybody!

[willicreate]

They could be a halfling, elf, human, or animal.

I chose vegetable.

[Georgios Christopoulos]

Hi! Here is my entry. That was fun!

[chrisaakins]

Here is my 2nd entry. I had fun with this one. very different from my normal style but I kind like it.

[jdubz]

I was debating on whether or not to do a 2nd one. On my original sketches there were two I really liked - the bunny won in the end but I had really liked this character quite a bit and I had half a dozen finished poses and sketches of her. So I figured I'd spent the extra 4-5 hours to finish her up.

@JoshSchouwstra Solid... love me a good brave mushroom!

[Lindsey Pittenger]

Still working on my composition skills, but since this is my first full character sheet, I'm fairly happy with how it turned out

[Jacy13]

Here is Ember the Cat! She's a potion maker at the Purple Raven Apothecary. She's ready to embark on a treacherous journey to save her village

[Kimberly Nissinen]

Question: All the poses have to be on one page... Does that page have to be 8x11 (printer paper) proportions or can we stretch it one way? Choosing a way to organize these poses is a little trickier to me than I expected.

[Georgios Christopoulos]

@chrisaakins Nice!!!it was worth it after all right?

[Georgios Christopoulos]

@Larue This fella is beautiful!!love his birdie pal!!

[Larue]

@Georgios-Christopoulos Thanks Georgios, I had a lot of fun on this one. I come from a mind of whimsical realism and I'm trying to learn to push that but still on the journey.

[Mr.NiftyRat]

Hi! The deadline is on the 31st at midnight of which timezone? I'm in UK

[Lee White]

I made a quick sketch of a traveler I thought I'd share here. Can't let you guys have all the fun! I'm not entering the contest obviously, so no turnarounds on this guy. : )

[Kim Rosenlof]

Here is my entry this month. I was hoping to make two, but not sure if that is going to happen or not. It was a fun prompt! I love seeing all the different ideas!
