As a boy I wandered field and mountain, desert and ocean, forest and the icy reaches at the top and bottom of our world, and each place I found was another mystery waiting for me to discover. One day I found a silver doorway set into the side of a tall mountain. There were such detailed carvings of moons and planets and stars and all those things beyond our own small planet that I pulled the door open without hesitation, and within was the infinite apeirogon. I traveled the apeirogon on the back of a moonbeam I had rescued from the Land of Shadows. In time, I came to the Crystal Universe, and there I live to this day, writing of all I have seen.

Looks like things might get a little tense... Awesome work!
It's a process, isn't it? I really don't do much story-boarding. I'll just scribble ideas down, sift through them for the best movement of the story-line, and maybe do a few quick-and-dirty small renders, just to get positions/ poses / lighting close, then work up the full size render. (Which I need to get busy on..).

I would not hazard a guess as to any direction to take for Ren! I believe in the genius of your muse who has not steered you wrong in the slightest thus far! Give it plenty of room and I have every confidence that your patience will be amply rewarded! Another fine storyboard image here! Coming along quite nicely! Bravo! Well done!

like some say above, you have real tensions here. Ren is protective---w/ such impressive wing spans---and Toma is hovering in the background, looking for protection. (He also looks like he's bending over, as if preparing to take prey.) You've textured your image---something you do often with real success---which makes it look like an etching, or a photograph that's been aged by time. You do that very well. The ground is almost montaged, like a cutout. The whole image feels like a cutout. Beautiful, and you're definitely showing more and more about these characters. Your storyboarding is giving us a glimpse into how your characters emerge. Very well done, Bob. (ps---i'm not sure 'montaged' is a word, but it is now, i guess) All the best on this amazing process of yours. It's great to see it flesh-out via your beautiful and intriguing images...

Awesome image! Ren seems quite fearless and protective of the little one. I think I'm going to like him.
