Draw Your Summer 2013

Share

I drew this for the 'Draw Your Summer' collab last year that never made it. Topic link with some more entries (by others): http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1336413/1

All the parts in the picture are supposed to symbolize the different activities I partake in during this most awesome part of the year. I was planning to include much more, thinking canoes, badminton, buckets full of cloud-berries, blueberries, lingon-berries, black currents, raspberries, strawberries, birthday cake, all kinds of fun stuff... but there's only place for so much in 550x350px. :P Made with Flash.

Detailed

Wow ok so "NICE-JOB" here because of all the detail and effort you've put into this one. You can really tell you put a lot of work into this piece right here and this piece here is something you can't take your eyes off of due to all this nice detail and artistic effort. I love the use of the "GREENS" for the summer, you've made that the main color and it worked well to establish your theme of summer. I really enjoyed the bunny or rabit you've got in the lower corner, the fuzzy details you've given to the creature was nice and overall made me feel "WARM-AND-FUZZY" inside. The way you do animal hair is a good texture and detailed style that I hope you keep up because I found it more realistic. I like the ping-pong table and paddle to show the summer activties you do and the overall feeling of athletic joy it brings out. The sun is nice with good shading and textures and the overall "TEXTURE" of the piece really come out alive here like it is a summer time party. I think next time try to not have those white parts that you've done, I understand the design you're doing here, but with so much going on, it just looks like you forgot to include something when you do this, like it was an unfinished part that you forgot, and you wouldn't want to make it seem like that, but it is still great even with that part, it was my only real concern, so good job on this one, keep it up and I hope to see more.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Eliminate the white space parts, but that is only the bad part of this really.

I'm really not seeing the surplus of white with this one! XD Just the two clouds, which are unfortunately an inescapable part of summertime too... but maybe I could've worked on adding some depth to them too. Making them stand out. Glad you enjoyed this otherwise! You caught the feeling I was going for too.

Pretty colorful and groovy.
