 Topic: Goodnight, Travel Well Posted: 01 November 2009 at 9:31pm |
A piece I was inspired to do after listening to The Killers' "Goodnight, Travel Well". Listen to the song on Youtube and then give me comments and critiques and stuff.
This pic is a guy (doesn't look too good) standing against the ocean, grieving over the loss of a loved one.

Would anybody be horribly upset if I bumped this? I posted it this morning and it plummetted to the bottom due to the new challenge of mustachiness.

What you have so far is looking fine. You need to throw in the ocean to see if things are really working. Please don't make a blue ocean...think purples, aquas, greens, greys----with some blue.

I think this would benefit greatly from a perspective shift... Perhaps to be slightly behind and more level with the ground.
I think you could add a lot more depth to it that way.
Just my opinion though~

All things posted by me are simply my opinion mixed with experience, I will make no claim to the otherwise~
I am most used to working with sprite outlines.

If you meant "Google 'ocean' and post a picture you find" then I will.
Or I would, but I lost interest. I was sick and didn't have a chance to do it, so...yeah. D: Sorry. :<

Alright, here's your sea.

...:P Seriously, though, I was bored and did a little bit more, but I'm not sure about how I did it. I'll post it here later today.
