The illustrative drawing,colors and composition in this work make the story;and,tell it,quite well. The flying arrows are,also, effective.
Cordially,

Comment from Renate-Bertodi


I am aware that you are running a particular story line, but this so reminded me of my children when they used to have their action men, in the back garden. You know, they lived their games, I would listen to them sometimes, and then my youngest, Joe, would draw his action pictures. He had piles of them. Those games drawn in simple forms! I like the way you have tied up your drawings with the same design leaves.

Comment from mamamary


I love it. Your drawings are always so detailed. The leaves look real. The sky is blended well. The main characters are ready for battle. Do you do drawings for children's books? You would be so good at that.

    i have done 2..1 was published titled "According To Granpa" by Eigle Rull. i think its still on Amazon.com...the 2nd was "Flower Power"(worlds 1st flower super hero).. by Rasmine...but that writer has not published it yet. other stuff in the past was lil spot ads ..you know local stuff.. i started going after the songwriters and musicians instead of the writers. after 20 videos it might pay off. this one that you reviewed will be the next video. Bryan Taylor is gonna release his new CD next year and wants to use our video collaboration as the promo. so im giving yall a sneak peak on this future video. wink. thanks for the great review.

Comment from Gianna Rodriguez


A very creative idea. I can see this art in a children's book. As a person with a cartoonish style myself, your drawing really pops with movement and energy and such. Nice job

Sure the bird-mice warriors will succeed Robin Mouse is especial experienced in shooting his arrows from the back of his devoted friend Captain Cardinal. This is a perfect story idea and a nice page in the book of The Victory over the Tree Rats. The colors are as perfect as the composition to hug the readers/viewers to the story.

Comment from suzannethompson2


Another great cartoon, Mark, and I love your story idea - why aren't you a writer? I'm sure you'd be great at that. Love the colours you used in this one and the detail, as always, is fantastic - those eyes and the claws are brilliant. Very imaginative work. Great composition. Suzanne
