Well, here it is! Never inked before, so a true learning experience. I tried to keep it simple, and focus on storytelling and composition... hope you like it

After weeks of work, here's my submission... finally! First time submitting to a contest, not just for SVS. In fact, this is my very first time using Photoshop to illustrate, so thank you for the tutorials! And thank you for setting up the contest; it was a great incentive to get a project done... I have illustrated characters before, but this is my very first full composition. I had never worked so intensely in a project before! So looking forward to the next one

Worked so hard on this piece!! I think I was a bit too ambitious, gotta keep it simpler... it took me all month! Happy with the result, though, even if not perfect...

As usual, running out of time to finish! Really enjoyed this one, though love all the submissions!

It was a challenge, but I can’t say I didn’t enjoy it! so great to get people’s feedback in this forum... so helpful! Love all the designs

I take so long to make my illustrations! Haven't managed to do more than the contest illustrations... currently working on a faster process, but not sure I'm happy with the result, so won't share yet... So for now, here's what I've managed to finish are you all having the same problem or is it just me?!

EDIT uploaded my file again as I had uploaded the wrong one!

Wow! Each project is a completely different learning experience... I wish I'd had more time for this piece, but oh well, I had fun and did what I could in the little time I had! BTW, I love how different all the submitted designs are... so beautiful!

Thanks for the feedback @Gary-Wilkinson

I do try to do the thumbnails first, but I end up giving it lots of detail! I gotta work on that...

I created a third version. What do you think? Not sure her body is right... I was also wondering if I should crop the bottom, not sure...

Hi! First time sharing my work before I submit, so very excited Quite happy with it I think, but not sure if anything could use more tweaking... anything you’d improve or even change? Thanks for your help!

This is my Inktober2020 music illustration. It’s the fastest illustration I’ve ever made! So just for that, I’m happy... I did struggle a bit with the lights, I wanted these super cool stage lights, but not sure I achieved that... wish I’d had more time for inktober this year! So much work...

@AustinShurtliff no worries! Thanks for the link?

Is there a Featured Student post to submit our illustrations this month?

Thanks, everyone! Your feedback helped me sooooo much this month!

I usually use the whole month, but I’ve decided to stop and commit. Gotta force myself to limit the time I spend on each project.

Hope you like it. I already submitted, but feedback’s still appreciated. It’ll never be perfect!

I love number 3. There’s something really funny about her overkill lens

@Dima-Eichhorn I love it! Beautiful design and shading but wasn’t it meant to be fully black and white?

By the way, is it live this Thursday? I still haven’t received the Zoom link.

@Freya-Chakour thanks! so helpful to have constructive feedback. How would you get closer? Cropping top and bottom maybe? Maybe make the girl bigger. I did consider that, I was just concerned about losing the house framing, as I thought it was interesting with the door arch and all that... what do you think?
