@nyrrylcadiz cool, I missed this thread before now but I love love your artwork!

@Will-Terry we were happy to do it

I'm only here at SVS and diving into illustration after a search a year and a half ago took me to your youtube channel and eventually here........

I have learned so much from you. This whole thing has likely changed the trajectory of my own life in art, I am building new skills and more than anything, learning to find a lot more meaning in my art. It all comes back to what you said about everyone giving of themselves to make another person's life a little better and we have all found that here at SVS.

Really happy @ShannonBiondi stepped up (kudos!!) and everyone else too, and am really happy to hear how much it meant to you. Take care Will!

@theprairiefox this is awesome

@nyrrylcadiz so cute!

so cute !

this is great! I like the idea that the prariefox had about broken buildings next to him. I had the thought that they could be toy buildings,....then I thought about Calvin and Hobbes, where Calvin always was imagining he was actually for example a monster stomping down a village but in reality he was just a little boy stepping on his toy trucks and buildings in the sandpit lol. That might be a fun idea to play with too. Great start tho!

@theprairiefox yes I think you're right I don't think I'm going to go back and fix this due to time committments (moving forward with new art), but I want to learn for the going forward stuff. And, who knows, I may come back to it again so if I do I will definitely be fixing those lips

@sarahlawrence good ideas, thank you! I think those extra wispy hairs would help for sure. I think you're right on the darker shadows on the seahorse for glow, too. I was trying to figure out what to do there Thanks again!

@theprairiefox thanks, and I did have a bit of trouble with the lips! Thanks for the advice on the camera angle too. I actually added her tail in after the fact to add a bit of mermaid to it.........lots to learn

@Heather-Boyd thanks so much Heather. I appreciate your input! You always have a developed idea/story in mind so I will try to learn from you and improve my sense in that area. It is a great strength of yours!! I will try to osmose it lol. I saw Happy Feet once , can;t remember that scene, will have to go look it up. Thanks again
