Thanks for the critique! 8D <33

You're totally right though, Simon's hair ended up terrible. I need to practice hair from the back of the head haha.

One thing; It's not a girl. All the characters in the book are male.

Bonjour, I'm going to try for a bitta critique.

Cons:

So the only major con I see here (and apparently felt it was big enough to do this entire critique thing over), is that the texture of the hair upon the child's head (it's Simon, right?), looks really really non-hair...ish. (Articulation! I has it,) what I mean is that when I first saw this picture I thought the head was another leaf. The lines aren't soft or fine enough to be hair, instead you get the impression that they are thick pieces of straw or something along those lines. Also, dodge tool use on the hair looks a little silly.

Anyway, the background is amazing, and so is the pig head e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/sā€¦ " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Smile)"/> Its actually a bit of a weird jump in quality in everything else in the picture to the back of the kid's head. Did you rush it in at the end or something?

...

That's rhetorical by the way.

Thanks for the crit!

Yeah I completely flopped on Simon's hair. 8I;; I think my main issue is I've never drawn hair from the back before, so obviously I need practice.

I love your work! This image is particularly brilliant and really captures the essence of the novel. I am a teacher and am putting together a lesson plan pack on Lord of the Flies - can I get your permission to use this artwork? I will credit you.Ā

This is great. I love the depiction of the Lord of the Flies, you did a great job of portraying the evil that he represents.

the-muffin-queen In reply to Zakeno [2011-07-27 03:17:28 +0000 UTC]

DUDE. YES. it would be beautiful. they'd walk up to undertakers and be like, "woah, are we wearing the same perfume?", and the undertakers would ask, "the heck have you been doing with carcasses and formaldehyde????"

Zakeno In reply to the-muffin-queen [2011-07-27 16:04:29 +0000 UTC]

And the hipsters would flip their hair, say 'GOSH.' and walk away, knowing in their hearts that all undertakers are actually preps in clever disguises.

yep. undertakers would only be cool if they were a band that wore scarves and played music you haven't heard of... poor things don't know what real culture is, poor sheep.

That book...oh that book...it was one of those books that made me feel, like...empty...books like "Of Mice and Men" made me cry hard, made me really sad and upset, but LotF made me feel like I had a void inside, a void which obliterated all emotions for a while, except the want of a distraction. I still feel the same whe nI think about the book, and don't rightly know whether or not I liked it...

The picture is definately more gruesome now that I see it up close. O.O It's really the perfect image for the scene, I always had a hard time picturing that book in my mind, but this helps a lot. XD Makes one awesome cd cover.
