Well, this forum is supposed to here to improve your current art. Create a cave as good as you can, and we'll help you improve it :)

When drawing a cave probably some things to remember might be this:

- Stalagmite and stalagtite (animate drips at the end)
- Pools of water
- Lots and lots of rocks
- Bats?
- Create it to appear dark, If you've ever been in a real cave you will know that without a torch or match you will not see anything not even your hand a millimeter from your hand.

It might be a good idea as well to add siloette shapes of stalagmite in the front most foreground of the picture to make it seem less empty and the flashlight plugin could be handy as well for a caved room.

But like Mr Peepwood said, have a go first and then we'll help you to improve, If I have some spare time I may quickly sketch something up for your imagination.
When I was a little kid we had a sand box. It was a quicksand box. I was an only child... eventually.

Ha, strange people still know who I am, I rarely ever post anymore.

I wasn't happy with that edit, I used photoshop for once and I was kind of out of my element.
