Bear: Then you couldn't see his shirt collar or the bow tie! But ok, I'll adjust. Also, aside from Cthulhu, we have Charles Hadley "Cletus" Niedemeyer, downwards, Geoff Chaser (nerdy kid who's suspicious), to the right of him, we have Nina Miller the cunning planner and improviser; upwards from her is Carmen Rosales, the teacher, and above her is Emily Skelter, the only person that creeps out Cthulhu. Feel free to change the names if you want. I still need to come up with Cthulhu's two friends.
I still stand by what I said. Maybe she does ride around in a mortar, but the more iconic Baba Yaga rides in a very old-fashioned one that's a tall cylinder. Which is why I, as a kid, mistook it for a wastebasket. I wouldn't know what a mortar and pestle was. Also, she's waving her broom around as she flies. Maybe she has a pestle. I dunno.

I may be completely reading this wrong, but i feel like his head is too small.

I dunno. That looks pretty heavy for an ant. I realize its stylized, and there are quite a number of species of ants out there, but typically there is a lot more definition between the thorax and the abdomen. That, and the ant's left set of legs look just a liiiittle off kilter.
Yeah, it's not based on a specific ant. Just an ant-esque giant bug.
I've been doing a few of these monster illustrations for an online game and the hardest part is that they have to fit in a specific size of rectangle. It's really tricky to use as much of the space as possible and not make them look too unnatural/squeezed.
50 minute speedpaint, trying to get my head around spotting shapes, drawing what is infront of me sorta thing. I screen-recorded this one so ill put it on youtube soon
Leggraphics, I just want to say that I've been watching you put your stuff on AC for a while now, and it's really awesome how much you've improved since the first time I saw you post! It gives a poor young sapling like I some hope. 8D
Choice is an illusion anyway. Also the plants/smoke/skulls thingy looks like it's sliding off her head to our left. I would center it more on her skull. Second one is amazing, as always, but her eyes don't seem to be looking in the same direction. When you zoom way in, it looks like the left (our right) is looking too far in (crosseyed), but zoomed out it just reads a little oddly. Might just be the coloring/lighting in the eye and not the actual pupil that is misplaced (or it could just be me!)
EDIT: After staring at it some more, I want to say that whole side of her face is a little wonky, like its slopes up more than the other side.

Haven't done a good old-fashioned tossing out bullshit and seeing what sticks speedpainting in awhile
Would have taken it further to try and make it better but holy shit it's 4 fucking 23 in the morning already.

Inside Man and The International were okay
and Children of Men was awesome.
e: Bacon, I can't tell if thats a huge dream catcher or some sort of wagon wheel.
Either way, I like that cloud the most.
And that's an awesome environment Bacon, despite the inclusion of mid-90s gimmick store dream catcher thing!
I do like the composition.
one more sketch before bed.

It would look boring if it was all lined up. Nothing really stands out to me that you should lose sleep over.
FUg: YAY
legg: improved!
Bacon: Great colors!
