Description

Sonja thought for a moment, looking at the beautiful little girl. By the looks of her, she didn’t have much innocence left to her. Soon she would start to transform into the warrior that stood before her. “Yes,” she said with a hint of sorrow. Sonja had forgotten how feminine she had once been.
-- Cameron Wayne Smith, "Sorrow's Empowerment", from the book "Holtur stories".


Sonja, captain of the monster slayers, was locked inside memories of her past, the day when her mother died, assaulted by a monster. She was like a stranger in their home, looking at her own younger self and her family, as they were before that happened.

Check out Cameron's books, I love his characters and dynamic pace! And some pretty cool monsters and a whole fantastic world to go with it ;)  cameronwaynesmith.com/

Hi I’m here with ProjectComment  First off I want to say that I can see how the young girl’s face matches the older woman’s face, so that’s great!  I think that’s impressive.  Second, I think that it is really neat that you were inspired by a book to make this piece.  I’ve never heard of it before, but I went to the website link you provided and the covers look cool.  I love the expression on the boy’s face, I think you did a great job there, his hand could use some work though.  I know that neither of these tutorials have that exact hand position, but hopefully they will be helpful!  LearnManga Basics Hands Part 1 Hand Tutorial 2I know that the main focus of this piece are the people, but it would be nice if in the future you give the background a little more care as well.  It is almost spot on already, with your style, but the utensils hanging down from the wall, the one above the mother’s head just disappears before it reaches her, and the one beside the spoon isn’t finished.  I feel like just completing those two would make it so that they don’t detract from the piece.  Well, I want to end positive so I also want to say that I love the boy’s and the mother’s hair, I think it is fantastic!
