What an adorable little wizard & it looks like she has a great mentor! I'm glad that you decided to share it!
You take care of yourself!

Thank you! I just love using Kit as a little wizard or whatever she is. I started thinking of her as a wizard's apprentice b/c that outfit she's wearing is called something like Esmerelda Apprentice. And of course her little elf ears and chubby fingers and feet make her something other than human. Not sure what, other than cute!

A very sweet image! She looking like a very intelligent student. Just keep her away from the mop and bucket! LOL! Excellent scene! Very nicely realized!

Thanks for the comment! I think she's probably a pretty quick study. But if I start to hear classical music, I'll double check what she's been up to! :-)

Thanks for sharing this, I enjoyed viewing. It's really effectively lit although it might have been fun to put a point light source in the cauldron (very dim... maybe 2 or 3% with inverse square drop off) to simulate some sort of energy generating the smoke. Such a fun idea that suggest so many different poses and interactions between the wizard and his cute apprentice!

Thanks, Molly! I actually did do that: there's an inverse square point light inside the little mortar, set to about 5% intensity and green in color. That's what creates the light on the sides of the mortar and on Mathilda's face. (The smoke fx plane has an ambient color, but I didn't render with IDL enabled, so it couldn't have contributed any light.)
I originally wanted the green light to extend further, lighting up both their faces, but I hadn't accounted for the awesome shadowing power of her massive hat, so I had to change direction. Actually, had I planned on the green glowing light from the start, I might'v done many things differently, but that idea came only after most of the scene was set up. I love the idea of the littlest wizard in training, though, so I'm sure Mathilda will have more opportunities to practice :-)

So very fun and so very darling. You do some amazingly fun art for us. Thanks !!!!!!

Thanks for such a nice comment :-) I do enjoy aiming for fun, cute, and/or interesting! I enjoy viewing other kinds of art, but those are the themes I seem most drawn to creating.
