Value studies for fantasy illustration
-
@audrey-dowling A value study is just that, a study. It is not the final image. Feel free to change anything in a composition that is not working. The study is only there to inform you of the choices that you have and to see what is NOT working. I may do several studies (small scale) to see what works and what does not, before I enlarge the image and take it further. It is a confidence issue, do not be afraid to change things, right up until you call it done! Good luck. Oh, and if you want me to do a rough paint-over let me know.

I think I'm finished!
I'll let it sit for a while now, just to make sure I'm happy with it
Feel free to critique, but I'm telling you, if you find something too long to fix, I won't do it! (re my post on working speed and getting fed up towards the end)

It looks beautiful! You did a great job controlling the values. I do see the hunter first but then I get curious about what the fairy in the front is looking at. What do you think about having the fairy look at the hunter to draw us back to her?

@audrey-dowling It's beautiful! It looks to me that the front fairy is glancing at the hunter. It's just beautiful.
