Hello again!
Well, now I'm posting these out of order lol...But here is my belated entry for the prompt Protect!
As soon as I read the prompt, I was struck by the image of Ingo bravely protecting the main character. (I, too, am a fan of the "Duncle Ingo" concept haha).
I'm not exactly sure of the story here (ambiguity is fun!), but it looks like Akari had a bad run-in with a Zoroark. She's lucky Ingo found her! (Don't worry! They'll be okay!).

I originally wanted a shadow of the threatening Pokemon looming onto the rocks behind them, but I wasn't able to figure out how to do that. So, I decided to try to make some fun ghost flames instead and threw in the Zoroark claws. But now I think the paws look kind of silly. (They kind of look like bear paws...). Oh well.
I'd like to color this one day! I definitely want the ghost flames and Ingo's eyes to pop! I imagine his eyes shine in a very cool manner in dramatic moments.
This is the first finished Hisui Ingo drawing I've made so far. Drawing both older and young ingo has made me appreciate their designs more -- it's amazing how a few tweaks in style can make a fella with a simple design look a bit older!


Aloha!
Here is my belated submission for the Sept-Ingo prompt GHOST! I was inspired by Hisuian Typhlosian's Pokedex description -- it states that the species benevolently eats lost spirits to help guide them to the afterlife. Additionally, Ingo strikes me as a "ghost" in a poetic sense, in that he is someone displaced in time, a "ghost" of the future, so to speak.
With all that said, I thought it'd be kind of funny for a Hisui Typhlosion to get a bit confused, lol. Although realistically, it would probably tell Ingo is a living person, I'm conjecturing here that Ingo gives off enough vibes similar to lost spirits (forgotten memories, a lonely aura, a sense of being displaced in time/space, etc.) to make it second-guess itself!
btw i hate having to say this but the weirdness of the internet gives me paranoia: Akari's Typhlosion is being motherly here! please don't tag as a ship i beg of you
More comments under the cut
This Typhlosion is Akari's, and she is a very nurturing, motherly typeāa bit like a sweet grandma, lol. Hisuian Typhlosions strike me as gentle and kind despite being a little eerie and mysterious. They are friendly psychopomps, after all!!
Although Akari helps her understand that Ingo is indeed not a ghost to be eaten, I imagine she still goes out of her way to dote on Ingo (probably as much as she does so for Akari!). She does not see age -- everyone is a potential child to her lollll.
Ingo is not sure how to feel about this. After almost losing his beloved hat, he probably is a little wary of her at first (I think losing his hat is one way to make the composed man panic! It is one of his very few beloved possessions, and it holds strong meaning to him, even though he doesn't remember why completely). It doesn't take very long for him to warm up to the silly team mom fire badger, however. :)
Hmm, I need to come up with a name for her! You guys have any ideas? >0>








Look for anything (or anyone) that could be familiar

Hi there, Vitalia!
Thank you so much for this wonderfully educational reply!! It was so kind of you to take the time to share art advice and even make some amazing, useful mock-ups! You really went above and beyond, and these tips are exactly what Iām looking for as an artist noob!

Also: I apologize for not replying sooner! Iāve gotten distracted by some life happenings, and I also wanted to have a good moment to sit down and digest all the good advice you gave me. (I also need to get better at dealing with choice-paralysis! Itās so silly since this is just a goofy little project Iām doing, but I still have to grapple with my perfectionism ā I tend to put off stupidly simple choicesā¦ :,D Art projects like this though will hopefully help me overcome this!).
With your advice in mind, I have some ideas on what to do next with the scene!
Iām very tempted to follow your āzoom inā idea - I love the way the multiple trees look, and it creates a great sense of depth!. (In fact, Iām now entertaining am alternate idea where its reversed: we zoom out from a close shot of his face!) But as I am unsure exactly how to do this in After Effects yet, I might stick with my simple ātwo trees; static shotā composition first. Once I feel confident, I might use that as a base to create the āzoom inā effect!
(I think it could be as simple as changing the scale of Emmet AND the background, but I have a feeling messing around with AEās camera tool might be useful if I want to make a cooler ā3D-depthā effect with the tree background you proposed).
I also made some more mock-ups, moving Emmet to be placed around the lower horizon line to place more attention on the trees. Am I understanding and incorporating what I learned well? Iām always open to further critique!: Imgur Gallery of my Edits
Also, if you (or anyone else!) would find it useful, below the cut I included a big summary of what Iāve learned so far about horizon/eye lines and composition from your tips and in looking at other resources. I am unsure if I got everything right -- If you (or anyone else!) are willing, Iād love to know if there are any poor assumptions Iām making or if there might be some other tips I should know regarding composition.
Again, thank you so much for taking the time to help me! It was super kind of you to go out of your way to make an in-depth post, and itās also fun to be able to interact like this with a fellow SubMas fan. (P.S. Iām super happy to hear my drawing of Emmet made you smile! ^w^).
I was first confused on the concepts of the horizon line and eye level/line. I wasnāt sure if there were two different things, and I wanted to understand better on what it meant to place a personās face relatively around this point. So, I did a little more research.
THE BASIC CONCEPTS ā WHAT IS THE HORIZON LINE AND EYE LEVEL?
From what I understand, the Horizon line and Eye Level are two different concepts, but closely related to each other on the topic of perspective in an art piece
Horizon line: where sky separates from land or water
Eye level: the actual height of the viewerās eyes when looking at an object, interior scene, or an exterior scene
Usually the horizon line and eye line are on the same level as each other, and so the terms are often used synonymously.
The former term usually refers to drawings that are outdoors, while the latter is used for drawings that are indoors (since you canāt usually see the horizon when inside a room!). When drawing complex perspectives, you might have the horizon line at a different level than the eye level, but for the most part, they are the same.
As this redditor named FieldWizard noted: āThe horizon line is always at the viewers eye level. Unless you are doing some weird drawing 100 miles above the surface of the planet. Then the horizon line is sort of abstract. The eye line is perpendicular to the picture plane. The eye line does not necessarily intersect the horizonā.
(I also noted that the eye level is also referred to as the eye line by most people Iāve run across onlineā¦I donāt think itās a different thing entirely, but If Iām wrong, anyone can feel free to correct me!)
Other useful notes:
The Horizon Line moves up or down to adjust for your Eye Level (FieldWizard).
As a reminder: Vanishing points are basically than the center of the viewerās vision (i.e. where your eyes are looking); they determine the orientation of the Picture Plane and the Ground Line.
Vanishing points donāt always converge on the horizon/eye line: The vanishing points of objects parallel to the ground converge to the horizon/eye line, but you might have cases where you want to depict a titled object. This objectās vanishing point could be above or below the horizon/eye line, depending on how it is titled. ā LoveLifeDrawing shared this neat explanation (and has other useful notes on horizon/eye lines).
APPLYING THESE CONCEPTS TO ART COMPOSITION -- CREATING A SENSE OF PERSPECTIVE AND DETERMINING THE BEST PLACEMENT OF SUBJECTS IN AN ART PIECE
Now that I know what these concepts are, I can better understand how they can define the depiction of perspective and subjects in an art piece.
How perspective is created by the placement of the horizon line/eye level in an art piece:
āIf the horizon is at the vertical center of your canvas, that means you're looking straight ahead, and vertical lines in the scene (perpendicular to the ground) aren't converging to viewpoints, assuming the image isn't cropped.
If your horizon is below the page center, you're looking up, and vertical lines are converging to a viewpoints above the page.
If your horizon is above the page center, you're looking down, and vertical lines are converging to a vp below the page.ā

The rule of thumb for placing people (& peopleās heads/faces) in an art piece:
Generally, a good composition rule of thumb is to place peopleās heads near the horizon line/eye line, specifically placing them in a way where their eyes line up with the horizon line. (Itās not a hard ruleāyou can subvert itābut it usually looks nice like this).
With all that said, the rule of thumb of where to place the horizon line, a pieceās subjects, and overall, decide the composition of a piece:
A rule-of-thirds grid can be very useful to setting a horizon line.
If you want to have more focus on the sky (the upper part of the rule-of-thirds grid), set the horizon line in (or near) the bottom row of the grid, with the subject of the sky being placed in the upper two rows.
If you want to have the focus on subjects near the ground (people, plants, etc.), place the horizon line in (or near) the top row of the grid so that the viewerās eye is drawn to the subjects in the top two rows.
You can place subjects in the middle row too, but can place them in the upper or lower part of that row based on the ideas above
For further reading: This blog has a nice article explaining using Rule of Thirds Grids and The Golden Ratio in art pieces

Hey you!! Yes, you!
Now that I've got your attention!: This isn't Sept-Ingo related, but I was wondering if any kind soul(s) out there would be willing to give me some art advice!
Interested? More under the cut
I'm currently working on an animation project starring the lovely smiley choo-choo man himself, Emmet! I don't want to share more since I'd like it to be a surprise, but I'm looking forward to pushing myself to learn After Effects while doing this.
However, still being an art noob of sorts here, I am feeling some indecision about how to do things, lol. Mainly, I am trying to figure out what kind of placement/composition to go for...I'm horribly indecisive, so an outside opinion from more seasoned artists than me would be wonderful!
I have a few options here. You can see my mockups in the Imgur link here (as silly as it sounds, I don't want my cruddy sketches here to clog up my blog feed): https://imgur.com/a/mBRQIr7
I suppose I will have to spill some beans on what I'm planning here: I want to make flowers bloom onto the trees as Emmet's expression changes. I'm stuck on whether I want to put more attention on his face or the trees (i.e., should Emmet be the focus and ergo, bigger...or smaller as we want to focus on the trees?). I also don't know if his placement looks awkward or not (following the rule of thirds or something idk???).
I'm leaning toward making his face the focus, but I would like to hear what others have to say! Thank you!!
