The prompt says nothing about the pooch being glad its back from the other side, so that's where I went with it.

Edited to keep the file size down.

Lucky rabbit's feet are only lucky if you're not the rabbit.

Gave myself plenty of time early in the month to work on this, then almost forgot to post it! Some fun entries for this one.

Looks like my month is filling up quickly, so I might need to post this now and then tweak it if time allows. Fun project!!

Decided to redraw this after watching Will Terry's alien TP abduction piece last week but couldn't get this to post last night from my iPad intro this thread, even though it posted into my WIP one. Hope that doesn't disqualify me.

Spending the day watching canceledcon and doodling. Another personal project inspired by one of the cats sneezing in my face.

Time to call it.

Not as fun as anything else on this page, but more from the super-sexy world of utility infographics!

Once again, it seems like the month has gotten away from me. This scene is an excerpt out of the Navajo tale of how the constellations and night sky came to be, and is really a great story. After the First Man and First Woman, among others, get through hand-setting all the constellations, a great Coyote grabs the blanket and creates the Milky Way!

Starting out the new year feeling a little bit deflated...just found a project that I had been working on for months is getting canned. Was working with a local bar to develop their cocktail menu at a new location and I was getting to fill it with illustrations.

The bar chain is a long-time client, (bar clients are still the best clients, BTW), and their logo features a pig I had drawn years ago on a napkin. Over the years I’ve probably drawn this pig 50 times, for posters, events, t-shirts, etc. My thought was to put the pig in all kinds of single-panel adventures as the reader peruses the different sections of the menu: rums, vodkas, bourbons, specialty cocktails, etc. I was having a blast with it even though I ended up re-flowing the menu over and over as they changed their product offerings (should have been my first clue), and eventually they came to the conclusion that a full-size printed menu would be too much of an expense to keep up to date.

Anyway, the menu will end up being a stylized list printed out in-house as they run out of things, so the fun illustrations are a no-go. Wanted to post them up just so someone else gets to see them before they go away.

Thanks for letting me vent ;0

How is it the end of another month already!?!?

@baileymvidler That's got to be it...I mostly draw in the evenings, and keep my screen blindingly bright. Who needs sunlight anyway?

@TessaW @jdubz Good point...moving it up in the timeline by just a few seconds like the original C does give it a little more anticipation.

Kind of an un-related note, but does anyone else notice how dark Procreate is when you export and then post? I feel like I always have to run it through Photoshop just to lighten it up so I can see it before I post it. The same image as above, just lightened up slightly in Photoshop, where as the one last night was exported and posted without the Photoshop pit stop. Wonder if my settings are out of whack. @EliaMurrayArt I just saw you mentioned the same thing while I was typing! Nice fix...I haven't got in and highlighted the foreground yet but I really like what you did with the yellow!

@Neha-Rawat Yes, I’m struggling with that too. My goal was to make sure clydes mouth was big enough to get the monkey in between his teeth. I may be over thinking it but I don’t want the next scene to be a monkey in thirds

@baileymvidler Looks great! The value study reads really well too, just by itself. I would love to be able to just draw in values like some people can but I can’t seem to get my head around it.

For a prompt that seemed lighthearted enough I seemed to make it as dark as possible.

Ha ha...sounds like C is the way to go. I'll work on it a bit and muddy the water so it looks like its a river moving and not a still pond. Thank you everyone!

@theprairiefox Cool...thanks!

What a great idea @theprairiefox! Looks like you were part of a series? Do you know, are they looking for collections like that or would they just take whatever sheets they end up with and put them together on their end?
