nice designes on those last entrys,maybe work on organizing the values more clearly with the black and white character studies.the last page has very nice composition on the right side!

[Jamesxwu]

Thanks guys been trying to get my illustration process a bit more efficient,  been doing more planning than the actual illustration so far. My process and plan is Idea/Brief > Research/Ref> Studies > Design and Composition > Final Illustration. Thought this might be a good way to divide up parts of a painting without going in directly and keep guessing.

Comps for Chang' e, Moon goddess




any crits and opinions for this one would be fine
