I hope* that's referring to a medical investigation?

*At least I think I hope so. Unless it's mean. But... criminal investigation might be worse, no?

It's for a health investigation because my benefits were denied. It's fun looking over your shoulder and looking all paranoid all the time, you should try it !

Also, everyone's work is looking awesome this month, Oak I really am into your background, the quality of the staff and cape are exactly what you want to achieve with the rest of your pic, keep at it !
Val and Attorney(Atto), you guys are getting your skill levels up there !

A little more.

Atto loving the pose.
I was away for the the weekend hoping to get some work done but forgot my power pack for the laptop. I tried working with the Ipad just find it impossible. So here is an update from me. I tried to put a little interest into the sky. Also a little interest in the clouds as a gathering for his cloud flying but am unsure about both ideas

Oaktree: I like the stirring of the clouds, a bit like a whirlpool in the sea swirling up from the deep. Iit adds a nice little touch of movement and the higher clouds in the sky are adding that subtle suggestion of perspective. I think the whole background is working really well here. Now you just need to push the values in the clothing and then the character will pop out further

Atto: Excellent bit of detail emerging in your pic with the hair/fur and the little designs going on the costume. Some good creases in the fabric too! Keep it going.

Thank you both for the comments Valence and Charlotte. I will keep the high clouds but I will bin the whirlpool of clouds as Charlotte thinks the staff should be doing the stirring which was never my view of it. I will try to come up with something else. Here is another update.

Oaktree - I'm thinking its better without the whirlpool too it would be nice to see some suggestion of his little cloud but I'm at a bit of a loss to make any suggestions. I seem to remember it appearing from over the horizon in the tv series and rushing to his aid - maybe have it approaching from the distance over his shoulder?


Ok think I'm almost done - gonna let this ferment for a little and revisit it tomorrow evening just need to add the gold bands around his staff and take a look at it with fresh eyes. Any C&C would be appreciated and rather timely right now. Thanks in advance.
