Such an adorable concept. The childlike innocence of it makes me feel young again

Another thing I like is the detail you put into the boy's room - I only just noticed the Monsters, Inc. poster There's also the warm colours, and the endless possibilities of what kind of creature the tentacles belong to, leading the viewer to wonder about the story behind the situation. The whole picture is charming really.

Grown-ups are so scared of monsters - they don't want any of them around.

Great job!

Thanks for the constructive comment Cog..
I always look for new ways to improve, so feel free to mention where it lacks and what could have been done - love to hear it

Thanks again

Cheers.. I did try some stuff that didn't work..
Making the tentacles going behind the door as if it was about to touch the mom, that didn't really work.
Regarding the figures I reckon you are right.. At first she had the arms in the side and looked more angry, but I kind of liked the "hhmmff" attitude better?
But bottom line I think you're right, and I have thought about getting some of those "poses" books and see if that could strengthen my illustrations.
Oh well... thanks

cogwurx In reply to TinyPilot [2008-02-07 19:35:19 +0000 UTC]

No prob. The poses of the figures don't look as expressive as the could be. The mom is just standing there like a statue...a little more body language to suggest that she's questioning and disbelieving her boy's story. I think the boy can be a little more animated trying to convince his mom that "it's just a blanket".
