Excellent. Nice work with the background. I think you will need moooore shadows on the back of the two guys. Just to contrast more the intensity of light coming from the background (Well, that's what I'll do, don't know what you have in mind ^^)

Tommy's · Jun 11, 2010, 07:56 AM // 07:56

Background is really good, I so suck at that

You really concentrated on it, kudos, jealous on that skill of yours

On the 2 guys on the front, like lili said, more shadows D: It might be cool ( I assume the lightsource are the balloons, so it's coming from the front) is to back their backs really dark, and just the edges of them lighter, as you can see the light a bit on those parts. Tossing some thoughts

Progress pic.

Edit: Meh, I'm going to scrap the little shrine. Angles don't look right and his pose doesn't match what I wanted to convey. Going back to the looking out over a cliff idea.

Wow looking good guys!

Okay so I am planning on entering and hopefully this piece will be done this weekend. I just never have enough time during weekdays to have a significant progress.

It is mine and omens' official entry for the workshop.

and yes, there will be a background lol

Mr. G · Jun 11, 2010, 04:21 PM // 16:21

ohhh thats looking good. Though I will admit it's a rather errr... "strange" position

lol I am sure it will make more sense once I put the background. I just feel like toying with your imaginations a little bit

I actually think it makes perfect sense... it's just it misses raven's ranger for now

Although it's weird omens agreed to it XD

(just jking ofc

)

Mr. G · Jun 11, 2010, 04:49 PM // 16:49

She doesn't look to happy at whatever's happening anyway

Hahaha, I guess when I said "I will put a background" that didn't help my case as much.

Looks exotic Ravenhawk

Looks sweet. Finaly all the input is getting somewhere

But remember, only a few days left ^^ The 15th peopl!

So realistic! Looking forward to see what the context is

How did you do those shades?

Ravenhawk · Jun 11, 2010, 06:41 PM // 18:41

Thanks! Yeah I hope I make it to the deadline >_<.

I used airbrush pen (black or really dark gray color) with (I think) 25%+ opacity , 20% flow in photoshop set to multiply on another layer. That's usually how I start my shading process.

Mintha Syl · Jun 11, 2010, 07:06 PM // 19:06

Uh I didn't understand it's digital, really looked pencilish!!

Ravenhawk · Jun 11, 2010, 07:09 PM // 19:09

oh lol! Well, I think if I'd like the same effect in a pencil drawing I would roughly shade the art and take a cotton ball to smudge the shading

KiyaKoreena · Jun 11, 2010, 08:17 PM // 20:17

Back to the cliff idea.

Tommy's · Jun 11, 2010, 08:38 PM // 20:38

Think I like the yellow sky better but the blue see

Charlie Dayman · Jun 11, 2010, 08:39 PM // 20:39

Didn't realize the deadline was already coming up so soon. Anyways, nice progress everyone. Also good to see some new faces coming out of the woods.

Ravenhawk · Jun 11, 2010, 09:00 PM // 21:00

For some reason the purple sea seem to give a more Canthan feel to it and an air of mystery. The left one made me think of Lion King right away for some reason but they are both looking good!

Mr. G · Jun 11, 2010, 09:32 PM // 21:32

"Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba"

But seriously looking good.

Any tips on shading cloth... It keeps coming out like plastic :S

Stupid overly dressed suun...*grumble*

Tommy's · Jun 11, 2010, 09:36 PM // 21:36

Haha, all advice I could give you is look at real cloths

Look at where the shadows are. Dont be afriad to make not too nice blended shadows, they mostly are quite stong and stop quickly on cloths anyway. I really find it difficult ymself aswell to good luck with that
