Latest Update: Final Image: fish guide

My idea is this, a fish group starting a long journey, they are leading by a man of the under sea, the problem, that man is not sure to go, but he must, so, he is saying good bye to his friends,his face is not very pleasent about the situation.
I want to create the idea of movement, many fishes in a hurry, there will be more characters in this scene, for know, there is only two and some fishes.

I want to use the image at the right of the scene, I don't know why, but I feel it has to be there (Sorry about my English)

hey!

i really like the idea that you have....might be a little hard to tell the story with pictures....
im really looking forward to seeing how you try it...

keep it up!!...

CYB

It will be a hard work, but I think I can do it, thank´s for the reply, in fact, you are the first one that give me a reply in this community, I´m very happy about that.

Will you participate in the contest?, I really want to see your work over here, Your image of the panda destroying Tokio is a very good idea, I really like it and my work partner Anabel likes it too.

Thank´s again
Dewa mata (I think it means see you later)

I create a close idea of what I want like ambient for my draw, I think this is something, but I don´t like my character´s with this atmosphera, I think I should create new ones.

Any Idea or tip is welcome

I worked a little more with the ocean and incorporated some elements, this is one of the fishes that I want to use in my image.

I change my mind about a group of fishes in a hurry, I think it could be more interesting the image of three or four fishes with a heavy objet in their stomaches, the journey will be very hard for them and their guides, and it will be slow, but that´s alright, the ocean is misterious and calm, everythink can happen there

the last sketch is very expressive, nice sketch, keep it going, good start.
the idea about the fish journeying towards something mysterious it s cool, looking forward for the updates.
Good luck

I worked with more elements, I think this is my final sketch,now, I start to work with the elements one by one, the next days I´m going to work with the image of the girl and the big fish, I have to create a good wet dress for her and good efects in the skin of the fish.

Hey, another underwater scene. Not very many of them in here. Nice idea! This could turn out to be a really nice picture!! Keep it comming!

hola es bueno ver un poquito de mexico por aca saludos y buena suerte!!

Hola, bienvenido y buena suerte!

gracias por tomarse el tiempo de ver los progresos de mi dibujo, espero poder lograr una buena imagen que sea competitiva en este concurso.

Thanks for taking time to watch the progress in my draw , I hope to make a competitive image for this challenge

So, this is my line art, from here I´m gonna start my coloring wip, any comment or advice is welcome

now, the most dificult part of the journey begins, the color, I hope manage in a good way this part od the contest.

any suggestion is welcome

very cool Idea, it's very original.

I will suggest that you move the placement of the conch shell away from the fish's nose it is very distracting and results in poor composition. just move it down a bit so they don't overlap. the only time you want to overlap things like that is if you are using heavy contrast. putting dark over light creates visual interest but in this case it's just too busy and takes away from the cool drawing of the fish. my only other comment is that you should put something waaayyyy of in the distance very hazy to add some depth. maybe a whale or a sunken city with absolutley no detail just a blue silhouette.
keep up the good work.
