Pretty Tree?

[luco]

So, first off, I want to thank everyone who called last Friday. You guys kept me sane and it was really nice to talk to so many of you!

I would have responded sooner, but mom kidnapped me. She decided that, between the nut reaction, a fear of classrooms and the frustration that brings and a visit from the SWAT team that I need time away from school and with a kitty curled up in my lap. So I spent the weekend playing Skies of Arcadia and had Rico purring away in my lap.

It's helped and having an understand Animation teacher also helps. I've been told to take my time on the assignments until I have my head figured out and to just keep him up to date. So, with a small break from that, I'm taking the time to play catch up on other assignments, one of which was for Digital Painting. The teacher wanted us to paint so sort of exterior. We could use linework he provided, or create our own.





So, it took me about a day and a half to draw and colour. And it's not the greatest but I kind of like it. Want to put some characters into it, but I'm not sure if i want original or fanart? Because some fairies and dragons would look pretty, but I can see Robin and Chopper exploring it, or maybe Fran?

Will have to think on it.

Anyways, wish me luck with the rest of my work.

Well, since it looks like a ruin overtaken by nature, how about a few innocent critters?

It looks like the kind of place that my neighbor tortoro would live in.

[mailechan.livejournal.com]

Go with plushies. It looks a little like the Ancient Forest in FF7.

BTW? My arm is KILLING me from cutting mat. I need to go to the gym more.

Wooo! That is an *awesome* landscape. I love it!

[ripfangdragon.livejournal.com]

I absolutely love the drawing <3~

I do hope you're feeling better after than entire ordeal, luv :3

[ningen-demonai.livejournal.com]

Uwah, that looks AWESOME. :D

*Snugs*

[white_aster]

I'm glad you're feeling better! :hugz~:

And ooh, I like the pic. With the broken stairway and the darker colors, it kind of makes me think of STEAMPUNK fairies. :)

Very nicely done! A couple punk elves with mohawks and piercings would fit in quite nicely.

[anguisel.livejournal.com]

That looks like something you'd see in Final Fantasy 9. Really love the detail to it and design of the tree. Absolutely wonderful. Also, have some more goodies for you. Always with the links

[dragonsong12.livejournal.com]

Wow, beautiful!
I can just picture some epic scene taking place there...

[hii-chan.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you're feeling better!!

And the tree is really cool!! How about leave 1 version as it is and have 1 version with characters? And I'm sure Robin-chwan would like to explore it! It's ruins after all ^.~

[aerlyn.livejournal.com]

That's beautiful. I can't think of any other way to describe it!

[dracontia.livejournal.com]

Anything with wings would look very good. I really like the cracks on the stones, well distributed and not overdone.

[onikotsu.livejournal.com]

*hug* I'm better you're feeling better *hugs*! I really like the picture, the way everything seems green reminds me of elves. I hope you have better luck now!

[cephy.livejournal.com]

Oooh, love the atmosphere. There's something very haunted about it.

Good luck with the rest! ^^

[kala-aira.livejournal.com]

Oh, very pretty! It looks like it has some mighty interesting history!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

It does feel a little inviting doesn't it?

Re: purdy

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I can see innocent little cute things running around here. . .

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Good! That's how it's suppose to feel!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I was hoping for magical, but haunted does suit the drawing better >_>

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Yup, I could see elves here, but I'm still undecided...

And sorry we didn't get time to chat ;___;

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

The cracks took a bit of trial and error but I think the closest portion of the bridge still looks a little cluttered with them. . .

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I'm quite happy you think that since I do rather like how it turned out and my teacher liked it too ^__^

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Well, it will be left alone for one version of it, but the other with characters is still undecided. . .

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Can you tell I was thinking of more of a video-game layout then an animation layout? ^___^

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

...yeah, you're right. There is definately a FF9 feel. . .

I miss that game ;___;

And thanks for the link ^__^ I love your icons!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

*laughs* That would indeed make an interesting picture ^____^

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Steampunk fairies huh? I may have to try and draw that just on it's own one day ^___^

*snuggles*

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Why thank you ^___^

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I'm starting to feel better. I'm still out of it and realize it, but I am better.

Thanks ^__^

[ripfangdragon.livejournal.com]

Absolutely, hun. I'm glad to hear you're feeling better <3~

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I'm kinda glad Digital Painting is forcing me to practice these. It's turning out to be a lot of fun ^__^

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I think the Ancient Forest would have more of a blue colour scheme, but we shall see what happens...

And I feel bad about you having to cut all that mat, but I'm so excited about this weekend ^___^

It is this weekend right?

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Really? that's kinda cool ^___^

[dragonsong12.livejournal.com]

Actually - yes! My first thought was: what kind of character would I take up that path? XD

[onikotsu.livejournal.com]

It's fin after all school work is very important, but maybe sometime when yo have freetime you'll let me know?

[mailechan.livejournal.com]

Yup, this weekend. I finished all but the Ladybug Fairy and Flower Girl. Actually, I was cutting the mat for FG, but I sneezed and my hand jerked, and I sliced the mat wrong. So now I need to get some more mat board.

[weenergord.livejournal.com]

Is there a kodama in there? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodama_(spirit))

[imagines.livejournal.com]

Ooh! The poofy trees remind me of the Lorax. :o I loooove it. It's spooky!

[ahja-reyn.livejournal.com]

oooOOOo, I like the sense of lost history it holds. Kind of sad, though, with the color scheme...so it feels not like an amazing discovery of wonder but more something one should mourn over...
