Rope slidin'

Published:

Description

Dobie is above the trees and sliding on a Rope hundreds of feet up.
He's using his hammer to glide gracefully above the treetops to another point in the huge forest.

if he lets go, well.. Dobie can fly <.<; wouldn't be as fun as sliding though... or is it? <.<

===

Okay dokie, I drew this.. I think in November and I'm just now finishing it up... boy do I procrastinate -.-;

but anyways.. I like the pose, but it doesn't look like Dobie is way way way way above the trees... I was trying to avoid him looking like a giant, but I think I failed.

also failed; making it look like he's going fast, I don't really know what to do with that.. ugh.

I do dig the lake and mountains in the background though.

anyways, enjoy this picture!

Vision: I can understand clearly what is going on in this picture, and what I like most about the scenery is the vast amount of variety to it (the forest, the mountains, the water, and the winding tree). The character is highly animated here as he slides down the rope.

Originality: The character was quite original to begin with. This scenario is familiar. I have seen it in many movies, and it's never a dull moment to see a character slide down a rope.

Technique: Your shading can use a little more work. Some of the trees on the right side lack shading, causing an inconsistency with the trees next to it. I would also like to point out that the path below is very thin when compared side-by-side with the tree trunks. The water could use a bit of a white splash of paint to show the viewer the reflection of shimmering sunlight. Please pardon these nitpicks of mine. Improve on whichever one is most important to you before moving onto the next one, in your future drawings.

Impact: This is normally an epic, suspenseful, and danger-filled scene. Yet I am surprised you didn't take advantage of the comedy woven into the scenario; the fact that the character has wings, and is in absolutely no danger of falling from a great height. Dohohoh...

Overall: Bright, colorful, and highly animated. This is what I've come to expect from you for the years I've known you. Keep up the good work in that regard. Your character I have almost no problems with in design (except for perhaps the fact that the glasses appear have no lenses, but I digress). Work on your shading and staying consistent.
