hello everyone!

I created this picture after being inspired by my baby nephew.

If there is any problem in this drawing or suggestions I’d love to hear!

Thanks in advance

I’ve seen real children of that age since my last post in this thread, and I noticed that they have very short necks and not so great range of motion. So to look in the angle your nephew does in your picture, they would have to move their left arm and twist the entire body.

I tried just moving the head to reflect a shorter neck: http://sta.sh/07kt2roj2kt

But it won’t look quite natural until the arm moves too.

Observe your nephew and see if you want to do any changes. It’s nothing one (or at least I) would notice at first (or second or third) glance, so I think it would be ok to leave it as it is.

Good Image ,I like the floor and the reflections ,my suggestions would be ,since there is such a strong light source ,you could try and add translucent areas on the foot and ears ,also the mouth could be a bit pink .

The composition/camera angle can be more interesting. Right now, you have a lot of parallel horizontal and vertical lines that add rigidity to your composition. It you simply altered the camera angle a bit, or tilted the image a little, it’ll create a more dynamic look with more drama and excitement.

I just saw…Thanks for the advice!:slight_smile:

There are a few problems with the perspective.
The viewpoint is located at the far left of the picture. It’s not technically wrong but you need to have a tilt-shift lens to take pictures like this and it looks odd.
The table side edge should have the same vanishing point as the tiles since their front edges are parallel to the picture plane.
The extreme wide angle perspective should affect the body more.
There are more problems…
