The World of Smurfsby *nippy13

Fan Art / Cartoons & Comics / Digital / Other

And finally here is the picture i've been working on for a while!
I've always loved the Smurfs but the idea to do a fanart came to my mind after reading a wonderful book about their history

Hope you like it!

Impact: the picture is vey bright and happy,darker shades are balanced out Making the envioronment feel editable and warm,there is not much hard black at all and really I can see anything which is a good quality for a picture of this calibre.

Technique: the way you lined the Smurfs and everything makes it seem less hard making it a softer looking picture, the houses and Smurfs are spot on, they look right in every way and the proportions are evenly balanced, the circular shapes give it a more childish feel which is exactly what the Smurfs is Aimed at I love how you drew them all!!!

Vision: every body knows what Smurfs are and in this picture you can tell, they are Smurfs...not some blue people doing random things, each has a story and you can tell from their expressions that they love being Smurfs and that they are very content and happy

you can see that a Smurf,perhaps lazy, is feeling relaxed not a Smurf lying down. It feels very welcoming and I just want to sit in there and bake in the warm sun with tiny mushroom houses and cute little Smurfs.

Originality: the area you based this in is quite stunning, you chose a good amount of Smurfs to work on and it is less of an eyesore, flowers,trees,mushrooms and a lake make it more fantasy which is perfect for this picture, the only minor drawback is that for originality it is sort of an already seen type of picture never the less I love it and I think it is beautiful, it is so joyful and merry Fantastic job!!!
