Thank you so much! Also, no this is a small town in Alabama called Cordova. There was a whole documentary about it when they were discussing the tornadoes that happened on that day.

im sure..over the years there are endless documentaries. on record the longest and deadliest tornado happen back in the 50's..it started in Missouri and ended in illinois traveling over 100 miles and hit a school killing a few children and parents..that tornado prompted or government to come up with an early warning system. Weather Channel did a documentary on it some years back. maybe you will find it on google. wink

Yessir, the Tri-State tornado! Traveled over 100 miles (I think 250), took 695 lives (probably was more, they didn't do a good job keeping records). Laid waste to multiple towns and cites. Even destroying 100% of 3 different towns

yep that is the one.

As with the other post earlier about the tornado, I really feel that the hurricane needs to appear more ominous than is seen here. It needs to stand out, command attention and really grab the viewer's eye at first glance. All of the colors you are using work very well together, but they all have the same value and intensity. Contrast is needed to make the tornado come to life. Your ability to convey foreshortening is perfect, your attention to detail is good and you're notes are very helpful. Give the creature life.

Thank you very much! I will try with the next tornado drawing. I try with bolden the colors but I might need some stronger color pencils. But I will figure it out, to make it pop more.

I know you will. You are very talented.

Mother nature can be very cruel can't she. I feel for these people. I can't imagine the horror that they were facing. I'm glad that you do drawings to highlight these wonders. Thank you for sharing.

Goodmorning
Your tornados are amazing
You can see the destruction happening
I love the two cars they are positioned right in the way of the tornado so realistic
The colouring is excellent
Thank you for sharing
Hope this helps

What a gripping visual you've paintedâ€"with both words and your sketch! The way you've captured the sheer power and eerie motion of the tornado is truly commendable. I'm looking forward to your EF4 seriesâ€"your art tells stories that must not be forgotten. Stay inspired!
