Maaaan! We have so much great art in this calendar! This looks like a classical painting! And another idea for this theme, that I really love. Strongbow making his arrows is so peaceful and he looks so content while doing it. The background and mystical lighting are wondrous! Wonderful use of colors, almost like an impressionist painting. The forest and the Father Tree look so inviting. Strongbow is really handsome and I like how you handled his physique. His wolf is also gorgeous!

There is an extraordinary amount of gorgeous work in this calendar, and I'm thrilled to see names never before for this year! Another wonderful "day in the life" depiction, and this has such a realistic, calm, inviting feel to it. The wolf nearly steals the show; don't think that's Briersting, based on the outfit Strongbow is wearing, but no matter. The wolf is a beautiful addition and adds to the serenity of the overall image. And adorable. Can't stress that enough. Strongbow is looking handsome and oddly happily calm, something you don't see much from him. It is always nice to see a change of pace for some characters, and he needed it with all that's happened to him. Great job with the pose and the hands, so relaxed yet with enough tension to add to the joy of the every night action. The background reminds me of a European Medieval forest, and somehow it fits the narrative of the scene. I can imagine with a better monitor, I'll be able to see even more in the background. All beautifully woven together into an amazing imagine! Again, hope to see more from you!

Very nice! First off, I was surprised to see Strongbow in the row of creators, but of course, preparing hunting equipment makes sense. I do like the surrounding a lot, the little tree with colourful leaves, the mossy tree / big branch Strongbow is resting upon, and of course his wolf-friend with his grey shape who rest comfortably near his elf-friend, knowing, that he is safe here.
And Strongbow has very distinct colours while the background is somewhat desaturated and blurry like a bokeh, which gives a good focus on him. |

Whoa, the background with the painterly trees almost fading from view is gorgeous! Love the blue touches. And the scene itself is also wonderful, he'd spend a good deal of time fletching I'm sure! And he's got his wolffriend with him, that's so sweet

There is just so much that is gorgeous here! The cozy scene with Strongbow concentrating on fletching his arrows, the wolf napping content and so sleepy. I just wanna rub my hands all over the fur, it looks so nice! Though I guess his wolf would not enjoy me waking him up, lol. But above all I love the background! The painterly way you added in Father Tree Holt, mimicking a soft morning, of it is so gorgeous.

Wow, this is so much! The background looks absolutely stunning. The colors of that little tree are brilliant, the whole coloring has such a nice vibe. The thick branch with the moos looks so real.
I adore the little smile of Strongbow. He not often smiles and it looks so nice. Does he lift his foot in exertion? Or is just a tune in his head that makes him also smile? The sleeping wolf is such a nice thing to attach, makes the whole Picture more complete. What a gorgeous Picture! Did someone else ever ask themself how the long boots are holding in place? |
