MrRico: Thank you!

Stutts: Yeah! Going away again over the weekend unfortunately :confused: but I’ll be back on sunday again…

I’ll try to check some of your guys stuff out when i get back… All this stress has been tiring. I hope i get something really good done for the final illu, so i can relax and feel good when its all done. I’ve stressed together a layout for the modelsheet… It needs some work. I just want to start with the final, orthos sucks. Here it is… All thoughts very welcome! :slight_smile:

looking good man!

The orthos are good, but I’m just worried if they’re a bit too dark, and not relaying all the information clearly.

#124

Excellent Niklas, I’ve been dying to see the modeling sheet for this character, she looks great. Are you going to include the pet in the modeling sheet?

All the best!

#125

#126

#127

Sepulverture: Thanks man! You might be right, i forget that my monitor is quite bright… I’ll make some adjustments before handing it in ;).

GaeasHerald: Thanks! I dont know if I’ll include him :/, actually I’d rather not but i heard that you might need to in the FAQ…

erik_j: :smiley: Thanks man! Gonna try to push it haaard for the final… :slight_smile:

DefiledVisions: Thanks m8! Final sketches coming up ;)…

I’m home now! I’ve got this kick ass vision(i hope) for my final, I’m only afraid its beyond my skill at the moment, I’m gonna try to push myself to the edge this time… 2 weeks to go… Time to kick some freakin ass!

Here’s the composition i’ve been working on, obviously the character isnt in there yet… Its very rough right now, I’m gonna push this one really far… All thoughts very much welcome! :slight_smile:

-Niklas

#129

Still working the composition… Trying to pose the main character roughly. I’d love to hear any thoughts on this! :slight_smile:

Hey frozzt,
really cool concept! I like your characters a lot.

i think the character doesn’t get enough attention and is placed a bit to far to the right side.
Cheers!

#131

I keep watching! and Just can’t wait to see the completed illustration.

yakonusuke: Thanks man! I get what you mean, but right now I’ve built the intire composition on her being at least in that area. I guess i could try to pull her just a little bit toward sthe middle… we’ll see… I’ll try to use the light and some colors to make her eye catching! Let’s hope it works. :stuck_out_tongue:

ario: Thanks man, starting to get a bit stressed though. I really want to pull it of in a satisfying manner… :confused:

I’ve slowed down some… :confused: Tomorrow at lunch I’ll head for the park and drink some beer with friends, its a big holiday here in sweden. Hopefully I’ll get inspired and pumped up when i get home! :slight_smile: Still any thoughts much appriciated!!

-Niklas

I like the towering trees and the overall composition although IMO I’d advise against putting too much detail in the corner.

#134

Happy holiday Niklas! I wait for the next update after a big inspiring day! :wink: :smiley:

Hi FrozZT, I like the overall composition, but I agree with yakonusuke that she could have more presence in the image. Maybe it’s just a matter of cropping the image down or making her bigger. I absolutely love the concept of the forest overrunning an urban area, with new trees sprouting off the ground at her command and cracking the cement. Still, you have to give the character a bit more visual weight, to go with the spirit of this character-oriented challenge. :wink:

I may be wrong, but from what I’ve seen from previous DWs, all the top entries have a strong focus on the character rather than the overall scene. It’s a pitty really, but there’s little we can do about it. :hmm:

Cheers my friend! Keep up the good work!

#136

Hi FrozZT,

I love the dark spot of the forest behind her, it really makes you want to go inside.
BTW, what happend to the other creatures? Are you still including them?

Cheers!!

Baron Imporrible: Thanks. yea i get what you mean. I’ll keep it in mind, but right now i have this vision i must work against first, if it doesnt work out in the end i’ll adjust it. :wink:

ario: Thanks man! We’ll se how it goes, I’ll probably post something tonight…

GaeasHerald: Thank m8! Yea i will make sure she gets the attention she needs ;). At first I’ll try playing with the lighting and colors to make her pop. I might change her position/size slightly but right now im gonna stay true to my vision.

Silkcats: Hey, Thanks! Yea I definately want to include the other designs, if they find a place to fit in. I’m definately gonna use the spermlike “soulcarriers” I’m gonna show that she’s just given birth to a bunch of them… Her guardian will probably burst out from the trees to the left, and the small aggressive guys im not sure about yet… We’ll see what happens…

Thanks for the support guys! Its very much needed trying to pull this shit together. The end is always just hard work… Keep it up everyone! :slight_smile:

#138

love the composition man and if it comes out like you have described it will be sick! :buttrock: keep it up man!

#139

Stutts: Hey thanks man, yea i hope i pull it together in the end! Thanks for the support!

Ok here’s another update… I’m gonna work with alot more color on her, she’s not close to how i want her really. Added some mist, i love doing weird smokepuffs so i just had to!!! :smiley: All thoughts very much welcome and appriciated! :slight_smile:
