Incredible work on anatomy, lighting and scales!! Love his expression, and how he looks both determined and longing :)
This isn´t a surprise man... Is a GREAT surprise!!! : D
This is a wonderful drawing that you have done after a while ago. The content here is so nice, clean, and joyful, not to mention that the traditional art gave a living touch to the work, which is super effective, especially with some little lively touches that I´ll mention forward XD
First at all I notice a little observation. It might be my imagination, but these scales that are in his eyebrows, I see them look biggers with the traditional media and for the digital they aren´t that big. I´m not saying is a bad thing though, but I was wonder why us that heheh XD I think I also do the same thing with Orion sometimes, I guess heh. But looks nice, even soooo detailed there with the lines and the coloring strokes to make them less flat ; )
Next step is his hand, my my, the most expressive hands you have done a long time : ) the interaction of his hands and the flower is very believable and natural, also I guess is the first time that I clearly notice his 4 fingers, including his thump XD I really like how you have done this. Also good work with the arm´s position. In that view on the otherside I get difficulties of keeping his shoulder in his right place heheh that´s indeed a nice work here : )
About his facial expression. Can´t be so sure about it, but is that happiness? XD just saying because showing his tooths like that makes the idea that he´s ok, but the line of his mouth shows a serious expression. Is true that animals hardly make facial expressions, even in our characters heheh XD You really did a nice work by making him more animal on his face XD.
And nice touch by showing the wind with the leafs : ) that always work, classic, but effective. In general this has been a great work for an end to this year ; ) a great finale. And obviously I look forward to see more amazing works from you to the next year and so on and so on : )
Have a Happy New Year Patrick!!!! : D
