Description
Here's project 3 for my Illustration 2 class. I had to illustrate a scene from a classic children's story. I chose Jack and the Beanstalk.Notable thing about this one is that I chose to use zero reference for the beanstalk, despite the fact that I have no idea what a real beanstalk looks like. I figured whatever popped into my head might be more interesting than something more realistic. Things I create tend to be boring anyway because I put too much value in making things as realistic as possible.
As usual, I never got to take this as far to completion as I would like, but it got me an A for class, so I'm satisfied. My teacher is pretty easy to please. =b

I think the beanstalk thickness, width and density is excellent (which is often missing from Beanstalk pictures). Also I like the misty cloud effect that really gives the impression of height. If you "auto correct" this drawing with Windows MS Office Picture manager, it sharpens up the line and colours and it really does look fantastic.

Nice job!
Not terrible with perspective there! I do see a few things I would've adjusted, mainly the foreshortening of his legs, but thats always troublesome to draw. Foreshortening in general is...
Looks awesome though. Nice use of colors, very lively!
Photoshop, I assume??
Keep it up!

Yeah, I've not had much practice foreshortening parts of the human body. Most character art I would ever draw was a typical 3/4 view at eye level.
Photoshop, yes!

Really cool, I like it, especially the cartoony feel and that your brush strokes are still visible.
A tiny detail that I think would improve the picture even more is that you could add some color perspective. You know, the phenomenon that things far away are more blue.
Anyway, great pic, you deserved the A.

I did try to imply a bit of atmospheric perspective there, but I don't know if it's all that apparent. =b Thanks for the input!
