“Hello there! Nice work here! You already have a solid foundation. What I would suggest at this point is blending some of the color transitions a bit more to help give the face additional volume....”

“Hey! Nice work here! I made a few adjustments to the pose. Overall, the proportions were already working quite well, so I don't see any major issues there. What I mainly did was push the pose a...”

“Hello there! I really like the idea here! The main issue is that the perspective of the horse and the character doesn't match the perspective of the scene. Both of them appear to be following...”

“Hello there! Great work! I don't have much to add or correct. I only made a small adjustment to the perspective of the character in the lower drawing. I think the pose feels a bit more balanced t...”

“Hey there! Nice work so far. I can definitely see that the feedback Um9s gave you earlier helped improve the composition! Here are a few things that I hope will help push the environment even fu...”

“Hello there! Nice work here! So cool style! :D The only issue I see is that the lighting feels inconsistent because there are two separate light sources, one on each side of the image. This mak...”

“Hey! Nice work here! The perspective was a little off, mainly on the front cylinder. Notice that the front ellipse was wider than the back ellipse, which made it feel inconsistent with the box i...”

“Hello there! The main issue is that the leg isn't following the same direction or orientation as the rest of the body. As a result, it feels like the torso is pointing one way while the hips are po...”

“Hey! I couldn't really judge whether this is "good enough" for a professional artist. There's always room for improvement! However, you've only been drawing for one year and you're already produci...”

“Hello there! I made some corrections and even changed the pose a bit. The perspective was feeling a little off, as the facial features weren't following the same perspective as the torso. The pr...”

“Hey! Qué chévere personaje, dude! :D The only thing I would consider doing is introducing a few more bluish tones throughout the design to better justify the glow effect. I looked up a few refe...”

“Hey! I made a few adjustments to the pose. The original pose didn't feel entirely convincing to me, so I opened up the arms a bit more. Keeping them so close together felt unnatural, especially ...”

“Hey! It's important to develop a solid understanding of form, perspective, and anatomy, since these are fundamental skills if your goal is to become a comic artist. I can't say whether Marcos ha...”

“Hey there! Nice work here! I only made a few adjustments to the lighting, since the character was feeling a bit flat. Based on the cast shadow around the neck area, I'm assuming you were aimi...”

“Wooh! Love these sketches! :D Wish I have the patient to hatch like you did it :p”

“This one is so cool! I love it :D I'd exagerate the proportions a bit. Like making the frog bigger and the flower-hat smaller or viceversa. The frog and the flower have almost the same size he...”

“Hey! Very well done! I only made a few perspective corrections to these two groups of shapes. The boxes that weren't rotated weren't fully converging toward the vanishing point. Instead, some...”

“Interesting drawings, and definitely kinda dark! I like all of them, but the character in the center is my favourite I made a few adjustments to the proportions. The head felt a bit too large comp...”

“Hey! It's a cool idea and an interesting concept, the combination of a human face with a catfish is pretty unique. That said, I'd highly recommend spending some time studying form and perspectiv...”

“Hey there! Here's an example. Remember that in shadow mapping you gotta block the shadows shapes, using one single value/hue. After that, you can either continue paitning in the shadow areas, mid...”

“Hello there! Nice work here! I think the lighting would work even better if the character were kept mostly in shadow, with the light only catching the upper body. This would help emphasize the s...”

“Hey dude! This has definitely been my favourite Mermay piece! The design is incredible, and the mood and lighting are absolutely chef’s kiss! Very inspiring work! The only thing I might conside...”

“Hello there! The proportions feel quite off at the moment. The nose is too long, while the ears are too small. The lips are also too small and sit a bit too far away from the nose. Because of th...”

“Hello there! Nice work on your mermaid! The anatomy felt a little off in a few areas. In particular, the way the ribcage is bending, the fact that the arm appears to be positioned behind the bod...”

“Hello there! Exaggerating proportions doesn’t really affect the shading itself. What would affect it is not understanding the volume of the body and, as a result, not shading according to the forms...”

“Hands... The nemesis of every artist haha. You’ve done a good job! One thing you could try is learning to see the hand through simplified forms using a "mitten" approach. This is a technique tha...”

“Hey! Nice work! Personally, the forearm muscles are something I still haven’t completely mastered either, and I often forget exactly how they connect to the upper arm. Morphos is a great book t...”

“Hey! Fantastic! :D I've really enjoyed seeing your process up to this point, especially now that the illustration is almost finished. I only made a few adjustments, mainly to the glow on the swo...”

“Good work here! One thing I would suggest regarding the lighting is placing the main light source above the character. With that in mind, think about all the planes that are not directly facing the...”

“Hey! Nice work! :) I adjusted the lighting a bit, assuming the light source is coming from above. With that in mind, I darkened the side of the head, parts of the hair, the cheek area, and the ey...”

“Hey there! Nice work here! Personally, I would choose a different lighting setup. I think the scene could work really well with a light source coming from above, allowing the merman to read mostl...”

“Hello there! One thing I would recommend is avoiding flat shapes and focusing more on suggesting volume. This applies particularly to the way you drew the hair and the beard. Notice how I approac...”

“Hey! I would play around with the composition a bit more to make it feel more dynamic. First of all, establish your horizon line. Doing so will help you determine whether we should see the tops or...”

“Hello there! Great illustration so far! I made a few adjustments, particularly to the values, because the value range throughout the image is very similar. As a result, there isn’t much distinct...”

“Hey! Same feedback as the previous one. Draw in "X-Ray" if you struggle figuring out how the limbs on the other side. Hope this helps!”

“Hey! I think this can be solved fairly easily; you need to learn to see forms in "X-ray mode." In other words, try to understand how the parts of the form that are facing away from the viewer woul...”

“Hey there! I don’t think they look like bears at all. In fact, before I even read your comment, I immediately recognized these heads as belonging to a feline. The only thing I did was make a few p...”

“What a great style and simplification of detail! The proportions are looking good overall, but the neck itself feels a bit too wide. From this angle, the neck typically connects slightly farther b...”

“Hello there! You’re right about the values; they’re too bright overall. For the fire to really stand out, you need to darken a large portion of the scene, including some of the interior areas o...”

“Hey! You’re doing a really great job with this piece! One thing I would suggest is avoiding shadows that are too dark. Even underwater, there is usually some amount of bounced light, unless you...”

“Hey there! It looks great! I completely understand the fear of working with ink. I don’t use the technique very often myself because of a lack of confidence haha, but hopefully I’ll start using i...”

“Hey there! I don’t see much of an issue with the mouth or the nose. The nose is a bit long, but honestly, that’s not a major problem. The proportions are what feel off. The eyes are too close to...”

“Hello there! This is a bit tricky to explain, but in general, there are two important things to keep in mind when shading organic forms. The first is the form itself. You already have a good under...”

“Hey there! The proportions of the mermaid aren’t quite working yet. The head doesn’t feel properly connected to the neck. In fact, you can see that the jaw is significantly wider than the neck i...”

“Good work here! The main issue I’m noticing with some of the vehicles is the perspective. In some cases, certain parts aren’t fully aligned or converging correctly toward the vanishing points. I...”

“Hello there! Good work here The head feels a bit strange because it’s reading as both a profile view and a 3/4 view at the same time. Part of the reason is that you didn’t draw the eye or eye s...”

“Hey! Good work. One thing I would highly recommend is studying perspective a bit more so you can draw hands and fingers more accurately. The reason the fingers feel a bit strange or flat is tha...”

“Hello there! Good work! I really like the character design so far I wanted to help a bit with the proportions since Vincent already gave you really solid feedback regarding the lighting. First ...”

“Hey! Always keep the light's direction in mind when shading, and try to make the shadows slightly darker to create a stronger contrast between light and shadow. On top of that, think about the sim...”

“Hello there! Good work so far! I really like the technique you’re using. One thing I’ve noticed is that some artists reinforce their shadows using soft value passes underneath the hatching, wh...”

“Hey! Good job! In the end, it turned out really well too! I honestly wish I could’ve given you feedback earlier so you would’ve had more time to apply it to the final piece. Hopefully, the prev...”

“Hey there! Nice job here. The only thing I'd do is to make the colours a bit more saturated. I was looking for the painting of the artist you mentioned (I loved what she does btw) and I noticed...”

“Ey! Perdona la gran demora. Hemos estado trabajando para darles feedback a entradas antiguas como la tuya. El rostro en general se ve bien, pero algunas proporciones se ven apagadas. Siento ...”

“Hey there! I think you could push the value contrast a bit more. For example, even though the lower part of the scene is underwater and naturally darker, you still have control over the lighting...”

“The issue I see here is that the 2-point perspective boxes aren’t following the same logic as the 1-point perspective boxes. In the 1-point perspective examples, the boxes go from looking “narrower” ...”

“Hello there! Good work here The ellipses overall feel a bit off because you’re not fully drawing the “roundness” of them. Some of the ellipses end up looking slightly square instead of properly...”

“Hey! Just a few small corrections. I’d recommend pushing the contrast between light and shadow a bit more. You can do this pretty easily using a Levels adjustment layer and slightly deepening the...”

“Hey! I wanted to adjust the pose a bit overall, since some parts felt slightly off, especially around the upper torso and the arms. The arms suggest that one is positioned forward while the othe...”

“Hey! Good work here! The main issue I see is that there isn’t enough shadow contrast yet, which makes the image feel a bit flat. What I did was paint darker shadows, since that helps define the...”

“Hey! Good work here. The main thing I would do is increase the shadow contrast a bit more. Right now, the face feels somewhat flat because there aren’t enough shadows defining the facial featur...”

“Hey! What a beautiful illustration! Usually, this kind of issue is solved by pushing the lighting contrast a bit more. Try to always create a “dark against light” or “light against dark” relati...”

“Hey! I can see that you’re struggling a bit with head construction and proportions. I’d recommend studying the Loomis head method. It’s a really good tool for learning how to simplify the struc...”

“Hey! Good work If you’re going to study Michael Hampton, I’d recommend focusing mainly on how he simplifies muscles into simple forms. That approach helps a lot when it comes to drawing muscles...”

“Hey! To draw foreshortening properly, you need a stronger understanding of perspective first. Because in the end, foreshortening is really just perspective drawing. Notice how the issue becomes m...”

“Hello there! I don’t think the vehicle is actually wrong. However, because of the perspective and viewing angle, it can feel a little strange. This happens because the vehicle is positioned fa...”

“Hello there! Well done so far! The main issue here is the structure of the head. The proportions themselves aren’t completely wrong, but the overall structure feels a bit off. Notice the way I...”

“Hey Alessio! The main issue I see here is that the characters aren’t really following the same perspective as the scene. For example, look at the upper part of the larger character. The ribcage...”

“Hey there! This looks so cool so far! :D Well, regarding the textures, I’d focus mainly on the face since that’s the primary focal point. Because of that, it makes sense to place the highest l...”

“Hey! One thing I’d recommend here is having better control over hard and soft edges, and the silhouette in general. Right now, almost everything has the same level of focus. To make the piece fee...”

“Hey! This is looking really good so far! The main thing I think you need is to define certain areas a bit more, especially the hair. As you know, it’s not necessary to paint every individual st...”

“Hey there! Overall, you did a really good job, and I don’t think you have trouble understanding how 5-point perspective works. What I think makes the cubes feel a little less dynamic is that the...”

“Hey! Good work so far I’m not really an expert when it comes to poster design or illustration work related to this kind of theme, but I think the piece could work even better if you pushed the c...”

“Hello there! Now, regarding the colors, I think you could add more vibrancy to avoid the image feeling muddy. Right now, the shadows feel a bit dull because they lean too much into brown tones. To...”

“Hey! Good work! It’s definitely looking better now Just a few small adjustments, mainly around the face. Because of the angle, we should be seeing a bit more of the underside of the head. Oth...”

“Hey! Good work so far! I really like how this is looking overall. That said, the perspective and proportions feel a bit off in some areas. The head doesn’t fully match the same perspective as ...”

“Hey there! Good work so far! One thing I’d recommend is that if you struggle with finding the organic forms of animals, try building the body using more boxy or squared shapes first. Drawing wi...”

“Hey! The pose overall isn’t bad at all. The only things that feel a little off to me are that the character seems slightly tilted or unbalanced (though maybe that’s just my perception haha), and...”

“Hey! Yeah, the neck was feeling a bit too thin. Also, the angle of the head doesn’t fully match the perspective you’re suggesting. In theory, we probably shouldn’t be seeing that much of the ey...”

“Hey Oscar! I love your designs, dude. You're nailing it! I saw that um9s already gave you some really solid feedback! So the only thing I’d add here is that if you’re working with a light source l...”

“Hey! Just a few corrections. The main one would be the shield. Right now, it isn’t following the same orientation or perspective logic as the body. In theory, the left arm is the one holding t...”

“Hey there! For the “curiosity” scene, I would probably change the pose a bit. With the way it’s currently posed, the character feels more surprised than curious. So I sketched out these two al...”

“Hello there! Good work so far I really like the direction you’re taking with the warrior mermaid concept, but I would probably change the color palettes for Grace and Phantom. For Grace, the wa...”

“Hey! This looks incredible! I really like the creepy take on The Little Mermaid The main thing I noticed was the structure of the character, especially around the lower section of the torso. It...”

“Hey! Good work so far! It keeps improving with every revision. The main thing I would adjust here is the proportions of the characters. Darth’s head felt a bit too large, especially when com...”

“Hey! This looks really promising! :D The silhouette is interesting. One thing I’d suggest is: don’t get too attached to a single idea. You already have a strong base silhouette, so now it’s tim...”

“Hey! The perspective felt a bit off. The head was following one perspective (something closer to a frontal view), while the body was following a different one. If we’re looking at the body from a...”

“Hey! Good work so far, and you already have a solid base! :D If you want a more dramatic lighting setup, I’d recommend pushing the contrast between light and shadow much further. Right now, the...”

“Hey! Very nice! There’s definitely improvement in this illustration compared to the previous one of your character. You could push the piece even further by emphasizing the shadows more. Doing thi...”

“Hey! This is so cool! The way I would push the lighting further is by darkening the body a bit more so you can create stronger contrast between the light coming from above and the light coming f...”

“Hey mate. Just my two cents here. Perspective was a bit off. On the other hand, the hair was off too; it didn't have volume, which is why the portrait looked a bit flat. Hope it helps!”

“Yo! I’m assuming what you mean is being able to paint or “sculpt” the form once you’ve already established the graphic shapes of light and shadow. In summary, or at least based on how I’ve learn...”

“Yo! Be careful with the drawing’s perspective. You’re drawing as if the horizon line were positioned at the top; this is because the lines of the shoulders and knees are converging upward, when it...”

“Yo! What an incredible design! It looks amazing! I honestly don’t think I would’ve ever thought of incorporating obsidian this way into an Aztec warrior haha. Alright, regarding the line art: ...”

“Hey! Welcome to the world of painting! :D Painting environments can be quite complex when you're just starting out (especially when working in color). Because of that, I would recommend starting...”

“Hey! Just a few small adjustments to the design regarding the lighting. Try shading the forms while thinking of them as cylinders. This can help you better understand which areas should fall int...”

“Hello there! Nice job so far! :D First of all, focus on the clarity of your shapes, since everything feels a bit unfinished and somewhat confusing due to the lack of strong edges defining the ch...”

“Hello there! You did a great job overall! Just a few small details would help bring it a bit closer to the reference from Sinix (I love his work, by the way). The main thing is the skin tone....”

“Hey! Great work so far! First, I made a few adjustments to the character. The arm was a bit too long, which made the hand almost reach the edge of the canvas. It’s usually not ideal to have imp...”

“Yo! It's a great start, but you need more work here. The lines aren’t properly converging toward the vanishing points, mainly because there isn’t a clearly established horizon line. Because of...”

“Hello there! Nice job so far! So cool you feel proud about this portrait! Is comming out great :D I vaguely remember seeing this image on Pinterest before, so I have at least a slight idea of h...”

“Hey! Great drawing, and your technique is really nice! I’m a little jealous of it, haha. The proportions felt a bit off, so I made a few small adjustments. Mainly, I reduced the space between t...”

“Hey! Sorry for the looong text haha. As for the drawing, it looks good overall (i liked the other sketches!) It works nicely as a sketch to start exploring an idea, which is great. At this st...”

“Hey there! Cool design here! :D So... Short answer: Yes, it is too much purple. Long answer: Work with a color palette; whether it’s analogous, complementary, or triadic, but avoid choo...”

“Hey! In the same way the rib cage is simplified, try doing the same with the pelvis—both can be simplified into a simple box. What you need to keep in mind is that we’ll usually see the top plan...”

“Hey! Great work here! :D I really like the mood of your illustration! Just a few points to adjust that I think could help improve it: First of all, try adjusting the values a bit since many ...”

“Well done! I really like what you’ve done so far. Just a few adjustments, and keeping the following ideas in mind, could help you improve the piece. First of all, you need to define the focal p...”

“Hey! Regarding sharing your work: There isn’t an official or exclusive channel on Discord for these challenges, so you could share your final result in “Shameless Spam” and mention that you made i...”

“Hey! Great work! You have a really strong technique. Honestly, I wish I had that kind of pencil technique myself haha. Now, regarding the difficulty of drawing from imagination: This usually...”

“Hey there! I don’t really see a major issue with the depth in the boxes you’ve drawn (although I’m not entirely sure what you mean by “spacing them correctly”). If the goal was for the third up...”

“Hey there! Nice illustration so far! :D So, you need to add some shadows, even if they’re just flat shadows, so they can help define the volume of the forms. They should also be relatively s...”

“Hey! You already have a solid base! There are two possible approaches. If you plan to move this to digital, it would be easier to fix the composition by making your characters a bit smaller s...”

“Hey there! Cool portrait! :) Start with a simple color base, just think in terms of flat colors. Once you have that base, you can paint a shadow mapping pass to establish the shadows based on ...”

“Hello there! Nice job here! It’s tricky, I understand. I won’t lie, sometimes I also find it a bit difficult to keep vanishing points in mind when they’re outside the page. However, there...”

“Yo! I really like the potential of this illustration! I love the sense of dynamism you created and the opportunity you have here to push the lighting even further :D Because of that, I’d like ...”

“I like the design of the astronaut with the glass helmet! I’m imagining the weapon probably shoots colorful rays or something like that, hehe. First of all, you need to determine where the light s...”

“Hey! To be honest, it’s a bit difficult to understand what you’re trying to achieve or what you’re struggling with. When you share your work, I highly recommend providing a bit of context about ...”

“Hey there! This looks amazing! Just a few small adjustments could help improve the illustration. First of all, you need to separate the BG, MG, and FG planes a bit more, since the values betw...”

“Hey there! It’s a bit difficult to give precise feedback since I don’t know what the original reference looks like, so I’ll have to guess the lighting a bit and base it loosely on the photo that’s ...”

“Hey there! Welcome back! Overall, your values look good, and the drawing looks great! :D I would use these three pencils in the following way: 2H – For planes that are directly exposed to...”

“Hey there, Well done so far! :D One of the main issues is the connection between the head and the torso. Since part of the neck wasn’t drawn, it makes the head look like it’s just placed on top...”

“Hey there! You already have a solid base. It’s mostly a matter of adjusting the proportions a bit and fixing a small detail. The main issue is the way you drew the arm that’s holding the sword...”

“Hey! I’ll focus mainly on the structure of your characters, since the proportions are slightly off, particularly the face of the character and the woman’s shoulder. Try to draw a simple but soli...”

“Hey there! Great job here! :D The issue is that you’re not choosing a clear light direction, and because of that, you’re not painting according to a specific light source. Keep the light so...”

“Hey! It looks amazing! Very well done! The only thing I might suggest is adding some lighting to the illustration and slightly reducing the saturation of certain elements, like the background. ...”

“Based on what I did previously, I made this version where I adjusted the lighting a bit. Now, remember that you are the artist, and you control where you want the viewer’s attention to go. Because ...”

“Hey there! You can think about it this way when you need to shade characters, objects, etc. Think in terms of basic forms like boxes, cylinders, and even simple planes. This will give you a bet...”

“Hey there! Overall, you did well! Just a few small notes regarding perspective: remember that the different parts of the body should converge toward the same vanishing point. It would also be g...”

“I don't have anything to say. I love the simplified style! :D z I would just define the closed fist a little more clearly, specifically the thumb. Looks a bit odd hehe.”

“Hey there! Looks so cool! :D First of all, I recommend using a gray background and avoiding completely white backgrounds. This will give you better control over your values. Now, keep in mi...”

“Hey there! I would just emphasize the gesture a bit more. Instead of having the body leaning to the side, it would be better if the torso leaned slightly forward, since when we naturally take this...”

“Hey there! The illustration looks good so far! I feel like the anime style is already there, but you might just need to adjust a few things. First, I would suggest not cropping the hand that’s h...”

“Hey! What a beautiful piece! I really love the mood and the composition! The next thing I think you could focus on is achieving better contrast between your planes and your focal point. If we...”

“Hey! Loved this character and the illustration in general! Looks fantastic! :D I feel like just a few small adjustments could really help the illustration. Since we have two types of light...”

“Sorry for the ugly paintover. I used the previous one and just altered the colors with some poorly applied filters, but it was mainly to show you another example. Another option you could try is l...”

“Hey there! It depends on what your goal is in terms of color and lighting. But assuming this is meant to be a cheerful scene: I would avoid using muted colors across the entire scene if the go...”

“Hey there! First of all, I always recommend painting on a light or neutral gray background, since it gives you better control over your values, instead of painting in a pure white or black. Re...”

“As for the painting, I’d brighten up the face a bit more. But mainly, I’d reduce the saturation of the background. It bothers me to have saturated colours in both the background and the character....”

“Hey! So cool entry! :D Love the colours and dynamis! :D My drawing isn’t that great today, haha (one of those days when the hand isn’t connected to the brain lol). So, sorry if something looks...”

“Hey there! There are two factors that are causing you to miss the foreshortening. First, look at the angle of the face. It’s slightly tilted to the side and leaning back (the camera lens also m...”

“Hey there! It’s a bit difficult to tell you exactly how to correct it since I don’t know what the character looks like in the reference. My apologies if I ended up changing some aspects of the ori...”

“Hey there! I don’t have the reference for what you’re studying, so I had to guess a bit. But broadly speaking, first try to think about the overall shape of the hair. Once you have that, think ...”

“Hey there! So cool drawing! The thing here with the hand is that they are not following the same perspective as the composition. Simplify the hands into simple boxes to solve the perspecti...”

“Hey there! Well done here! :D Be careful with the body proportions. Notice that the arm is quite long while the torso is a bit small. At the same time, the legs are very thin, which makes it l...”

“Hey there! Keep in mind that the light source is the moon. Because of that, the character will mostly remain in darker values, and only the contours facing the moon should be illuminated (not the ...”

“I changed the perspective of the background to avoid having a completely flat background (which can make the image feel a bit boring) and instead gave it a different perspective. Also, remember to ...”

“Hey! It looks so cool! Really love the design so far :D So, I corrected the pose a bit. The legs weren't quite in sync, so to speak, and they weren't spaced properly either. I've extended the...”

“Try to define the forms a bit more, especially in the torso: the ribcage, abdomen, and pelvis. IMO, these shapes are the most important to define in a gesture drawing. Also, try to avoid placing ...”

“Hey there Hope is not too late. Just some minor changes that I think can help to push your illustration. The design is so cool, tho! Great job! :D”

“Hey! Try to follow the form of the face when using lines for shading (in general, always follow the form of the object when shading—avoid shading randomly or in directions that go against the form...”

“I’d say the simplest way to fix this is by making sure your shapes are clearly defined. Right now, the hand gets completely lost against the clothing. Try using simple shapes first; this will help you...”

“You’re not doing things wrong. The key detail (and it may sound a bit obvious) is that you need to reduce either the length (the side converging toward the right vanishing point) or the width (the sid...”

“This looks great! I like the design :D I think if you exaggerate the pose a bit and add more gesture lines, it will help to push your character and avoid making it look stiff. Notice that I drew...”

“Hey there! So, I made this quick drawing, proportions may be a bit wrong, tho... But I'd suggest reducing the size of the character so we can see the arm and not cut it, it's not recommended to ...”

“Hey there. Nice drawing! :D I'm not an expert at drawing folds, and some may not be correct. But what I'd recommend you to do is first study the different kinds of folds, such as diaper, zig-...”

“Hey! Great gesture! :) Ideally, it is best to visualise the torso as simple shapes. Once you have done this, identify the three main parts: the ribcage, the abdomen and the pelvis. Think of...”

“Hey there! Love the design of this character and the "P" at the bottom right :D The only thing I did was to adjust the values a bit since the bright areas were slightly low. I think that with t...”

“I don’t see any major issues with the composition overall, but I think you could increase the values of the dragon to create a stronger contrast between the character and the dragon. That way, you’d g...”

“Hey! So cool character! Great job! :D I'd paint the BG darker so you can play with the lighting a bit more. The white canvas kills the lighting from the staff and the magic. But with a darke...”
