Hey, thanx for the crit Kirt:beer:
I haven’t really tried starting from a clean line drawing, so I thought I’d give it a shot this time. I tried to scale down the size of the ostrich and give the woman a meaner look.

The Hapless Villain-character/hq-wildsheepchase
nice start. might put a strap over the beak to make the bit look a litte more like a harness.
and you get a
for putting the bow tie on an ostrich. 
this concept is really funny…I love the cruela devile look of her to hehe…
good work man, lets see some more!
As much as I enjoyed your last challenge efforts I think I’ll enjoy this one as much if not more.Very nice look already.I like the concept very much.As King Mob stated the cruela devilelook is really intersting to me as well.She has this real “cannot not notice look to her”…I think a woman like her would actually ride the bigggest of the ostriches,always wanting the biggest and best of everything attitude is what I get from her looks.
Exxagerate everything,the look really calls for it.The concept is great,but with exxageration she will go off the charts.Looking forward to your progress. :thumbsup: :beer:
sheep #2
(or would you prefer #1 cuz factory hasnt claimed either)
yeaaa ostrich herd…right. this is truly gonna be great
eventually have her standing with one foot on two ostriches, standing between them like they do with horses
:applause:
you can get very creative with a herd of ostriches and an old woman :shrug:
Ok…this is my final sketch, I think. I’m going to start coloring tonight.

Slacker: Thanks! I’ll make sure to put a strap over the beak…good suggestion
I think all the ostriches will have something special in the final image along the lines of the bowtie. 
King Mob: Thanks dude!
Virtuoso:Thanks for the kind words:D I experimented with the different sizes and I’m finding that the smaller ostrich does look more humorous so that’s what I’m going with. However, I’m going to make sure that the ostrich that the woman is riding looks as if it’s received “extra attention”. I’m really trying to exaggerate this character…a big challenge for me. I haven’t really done a lot of cartoony stuff before:D
Risibility: Hey thanx! Not a bad suggestion with the riding of the two ostriches…hehe. Maybe I’ll get around to making multiple images:beer:
Love the new tea party setting. That works much better than the previous sketch. Keep going! It’s looking fantastic! ![]()
lol. :applause: I like this one better too. maybe put a wine glass in her hand instead of the whip. looking great so far.
Well…I didn’t get very much work done on this in the last couple of days, but here’s an update anyhow:

Thanks for the feedback slacker and Kirt:beer:
Ok…well, I’ve found some time to work on this. I ended up reworking the sketch…again:rolleyes: While I liked the general composition on the one before this, I didn’t think the main character was large enough in the frame to get the level of detail I wanted on her face/body. Hopefully, this new one works. Let me know what you guys think:wip:

This one is going soooo sloooooow…:insane:

And a close up:

Well, I’ve done some work on the colors, fixed some anatomy problems, and started on the ostrich. I hope I have time to finish this one this month…not a whole lot of free time coming up.
I’ve got some time to work on this today, so I’ll be posting some updates periodically…
Here’s a bit of an update from my previous post:

And some details:


C&C welcome:D
lmao, the bow on the ostrich’s head is a really nice touch.
Lets hope we can all finish something.
The 2d challenge side is kinda stale. :banghead:
Hey, I know what you mean…I’ve been really busy this month. I’m going to try to make myself finish…that should be a challenge within itself:beer:
