Toa Deserok Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 .... you can only bear it through the storm.A little taste of what I plan for my fan epic, entitled Sins of Our Forefathers. The picture was all done by hand, gimp, and word's paint. It took a few days and several hours to get this accomplished in total, sometime during the summer when I worked on this. Overall, I feel a strong emotion behind this piece when I look at, and I like that with my pieces. I feel it is an accomplishment when I manage to retain vibrant works like this. I hope this is with others, 'cus I'm already proud to have done it.If you'd like to see the story behind this, you can click on the "spoiler" tag below to reveal the info about it:This picks off where Disgrace Amongst the Skrall left (sort of), but it follows a different approach rather than by the view of an ex-Skrall. Now it follows the story of lamentation and fulfillment by Padelean, a female Skrall recently afflicted by amnesia (loss of memory of her past self), but she still remembers bits and pieces of her troubled life.... especially the pain brought by it. Now she struggles to find her identity, as well as find Malduki in time to save him.Otherwise, enjoy and comment on it.-Toa Deserok Quote Banner Proudly made by Maxilos.Bolso.

Another epic of mine, Cold Dawn, is available for reading, as well as reviewing. Thanks!

Maganar Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 The best thing I see is the way you melded the expressions with the canon masks/faces. You succeeded in conveying the emotions of your subjects. Other than that, it is - in one word... quite eerie.Wait...that's two words. Disregard what I said about one word.

Simulacrum Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Uh.Um.Spooky?Seriously, a little more practice, and a little more... edged (?) artwork, and this would be better than good. 6.5/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Deserok Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 Uh.Um.Spooky?Seriously, a little more practice, and a little more... edged (?) artwork, and this would be better than good. 6.5/10.What do you mean edged? If you're referring to the dark surrounding, it's meant to be dark like a pit. It is smoothened like you're looking into the mind's eye, into your memories or darkest recesses of your nightmares (ok, that is kinda weird and freaky, but its supposed to jive that sort of sense). I can see where you guys go with the eerie part, but nothing else? Maybe proportions, or something like that? If you want, there is an uncolored scan of it here so you can better outline it without the colors.-Toa Deserok Quote Banner Proudly made by Maxilos.Bolso.
