I just didn’t do them yet because I decided it was a hugging day.

Can I just say, that is a hilarious quote. 🤣

I don’t know if the one with Joseph hugging the girl is a major part of the story, so I would maybe hesitate on moving it onto the next stage. Not that every illustration needs to be an important scene, but I don’t k…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I do not like full body illustrations. They are so difficult! Legs are awful! At least I can normally hide them on girls because of skirts and dresses. But Guys….. ugh. So hard to do.

Fair point. I struggle with legs often as well. I’ve been getting better recently.

Do you outline your drawings first? This has helped me improve m…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Also, what’s on Joseph’s hand in the one of him with Amelia in prison?

@ellette-giselle

I really like the imprisoned ones. And the orphaned kiddos. XD

I noticed you don’t seem to keep to specific face structures for characters, especially Amelia’s nose? It made her a little difficult to pick out without looking at subtitles.

As for other scenes I might have liked to see…maybe right before their interrupted…[Read more]

FOR LTBL

Hmm… I don’t think there was any scenes I wanted to see that you didn’t get. Do you have illustrations for anywhere near the end? You probably wouldn’t want to show Aaron’s execution, but maybe him standing arrested by the soldiers or something.

My favorites–probably the one of Sabina hugging Turin, the two little…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yeah, unfortunately it’s really messy. Usually stems from insecurities, I think.

@ellette-giselle @theshadow

Chapters 3 and 4 are out! I think I’m going to post these on a separate doc for now, and we’ll see how it goes. As of now, I’m also planning to post two chapters every week, maybe on Tuesdays. That way I’m not glued to my screen all the time waiting to hear y’all’s feedback, and it gives me some time to catch up on my…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yayyyy!!! Illustrations!!

(Even tho I already saw most of these haha. Great job!!)

Also, you can delete a forum??? 

@ellette-giselle

It was rough, and it was subtly done…….. yeah. I won’t go into it, but I went through a lot of abuse from them, but so subtly that it looked like I was the problem (I even believed I was) It wasn’t until things started to come to light and people started finding out what was really going on that i was able to see the truth.<…

@ellette-giselle

Have a few minutes to give some brief comments in a break in my class. I may have more to say later.

I tend to like illustrations that show the full body. Many of yours are close-ups of the upper torso. But that is a preference, so don’t worry about that. Overall these are fine!

I like the horse. He’s chillin.

@ellette-giselle

Why do you have to make me cry?! I feel so bad!

I thought they were.

They were the only friends I had.

THOSE TWO WORDS ARE SO DEPRESSIqNG!!!! I AM SO SO SO SORRY!!!!

@ellette-giselle

I don’t agree with prayers to anyone buy God/Jesus directly.

I differ.

Mary was a normal teenage girl. She was like any other Hebrew girl, except for her Genealogy, putting her in the direct line of David and Judah, so that Jesus did indeed descend from both. But there were other girls from the same line. She was chosen by God, s…

@ellette-giselle

(I’m watermarking them just because I’m paranoid. Sorry)

Understandable. That’s why I created links to the artwork I shared yesterday instead of uploading them to Kingdom Pen directly, so I can revoke them later if I want to.

Oh, do you want to see the ones from LTBL or TVON?

Tough choice. Hmm… what about… both!

@ellette-giselle

Thank you again!

You’re welcome!

I have a good deal of the illustrations done. Would you be interested in looking them over once I scan them in to the laptop? If you don’t have the time then that’s totally fine. I can ask my editor her thoughts. I would just be interested in the opinion of another artist.

Sure thing! Would lov…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Here’s an alternate version I just edited. I didn’t remove all hints, but I tried to make it less explicit–still not sure which version I’ll eventually go with, though.

When a classmate invites her to an underground church meeting, Sara starts to wonder if she’s been missing something all along–or Someone. But her twin bro…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I use gloves.

Interesting. I feel like I would have to get used to that first before I could use it effectively. Another strategy I have heard it put a clean piece of paper between your hand and the drawing.

My dad has some thick plastic ones he uses when dealing with drug evidence. (He’s a Detective.)

That’s cool! (Though I bet h…[Read more]

Just a reminder that my feedback is just my opinion. You by no means have to follow it, but I hope it will help give you a better understanding of the areas in your book that do well and the areas that need some work. Please let me know if…[Read more]
