@Lee-White Ahh yeah that makes sense! I knew it didn't look quite right how I had done it.

This turned out lovely @xin-li ! I love the colors you chose and all the playful linework.

Whenever I get that way I do try to rest and "refill my creative bank account." Just make sure that even when all you want to do is sleep, that you are not over-sleeping as I have found that this can make the whole issue worse. If I'm feeling very tired and unmotivated but have already slept 8 hours I try to get myself up and go on a walk or a hike or ride my bike to a coffee shop for a drink. Getting yourself up and moving around - even if it isn't strenuous activity is often the first step to getting back into a creative mood for me.

Calling this one done! I'm not sure if I am completely satisfied with the color on the squirrel's face yet - I might go back in in a day or two and give it another try if it's still bothering me.

@chrisaakins thanks, I'm still working on the rendering and lighting I hadn't gotten to the squirrel or the bg yet.

@xin-li I agree with @hannahmccaffery about the plants. To me the plants make the room read more like a living room than a bedroom. To me, a potted plant or a vase of fresh flowers would require too much attention and maintenance to belong in a small kid's bedroom.

I don't think it's the placement of the objects in the pirate scene, it's the perspective. (excuse the poor draw over) Going off the perspective of the box, you would need to see a lot more of the bottom side of the shelves. It's also tricky to mix things in 1 and 2 point perspective. I'm pretty sure the way I've done it is not right. Hopefully someone can correct me.

I really love the way these are headed though. You have a very strong sense of character and gesture. Really good stuff!

finally got all the line work fixed up - now on to rendering and light

@Coreyartus oh yeah, totally plan to do that, I still have a bit of work to do with the colors/lighting.

thanks @bathyscaph @Coreyartus I moved some things around and made the squirrel a little bigger. It is supposed to read as a normal sized squirrel that is very close to the camera. You can use the acorns as a refrence point - the tiny ones in the tree in the bg are the same size as the one the squirrel has. Do you think this is working better?
