okay, here it is, finally finished: my donkey-on-a-rowboat-piece (new genre, dex!) from this years zvokz demoparty.. sequel to last year's donkey-on-a-cliff-piece.. same guys, new location - pretty much like the party.

my biggest piece so far - canvas size is 426x240 to fit the parties full hd-bigscreen (300% = 1280x960); so, no resizing this year. looked hell great again.

don't pull it into pieces because of unoptimzed palette, perspective/lightning issues and the slightly unrealistic water, please. i know about these issues, but just want to call it done for now and focus on new projects. too long + jointless arms are intended.. just in case =)

underwater junkyard as as homage/farewell-present to my old honda.. dumped it in favour for this new turbo-charged sweetie, using the german cash for clunkers program.. same carbondioxid-exhaust, but double the horsepower - greenish palette to underline the enviromental character here =P

misc: none, no tv-interviews this year, i learned my lesson ;D

wip: www.piexeln.de/pics/tomic-donkeyboat_wip.gif (170 stages, large file! 3M)

reference: none, except for the bird (link)


p.s. skamocore: i *DO* hate speech bubbles =)

Hadn't seen this yet! Wow!

Your wips are hilarious great stuff just by themselves, too.

One thing I'd say: the donkey doesn't look like one, I thought it was a cow at first. At some stages it looked more donkeyish.


Levi (Level 1 Rookie) at 8/30/2009 10:21:56 AM

at the risk of sounding overly scholared,

dude, wtf, awesomeXD


camlio (Level 1 Gangster) at 8/29/2009 6:45:06 PM

Dex (Level 11 Psychopath) at 8/29/2009 5:10:08 PM

hehe, i work just as slowly as you do, no worries, we're all busy =)

looking forward to the update!~


tomic (Level 11 CEO) at 8/29/2009 2:15:42 AM

thanks all.

@huegenay: judging from the working stages it must have been something around 60 hours.. over a period of one month.. i'm slow =)

@dex+ilkke: yepp, your right. i'll do an edit on the turtle face and geek/donkey.. asap =)

 


Tpoe (Level 2 Peon) at 8/28/2009 10:02:35 PM

i like the whole background, and all that, but i much preffer the style of the cahracters in the older one.


exocet (Level 5 Captain) at 8/28/2009 11:14:13 AM

Great pic! I love the water and the underwater part :)


Huegenay (Level 1 Rookie) at 8/27/2009 3:21:18 AM

how long did you need?


iLKke (Level 8 Cannibal) at 8/27/2009 2:47:24 AM

Roxxorz! The water is so lovely!

I could watch this all day.

Only crit is that the darkest index doesn't blend in so well with the rest of the colors, esp. on the donkey.


Stickman (Level 5 Detective) at 8/26/2009 2:03:53 PM

Heh heh..you just couldn't resist the Monkey Island in the background could you. The underwater scene came out great.

Lovely piece!

Dude, this is really awesome!


jamon (Level 8 Marshal) at 8/25/2009 1:45:39 AM

Nice work Tomic .... ;)


Hatch (Level 3 Hatchikyu) at 8/24/2009 6:27:53 PM

Seems like there are some yellows in your palette that could've been used in the bird beak and legs and would've looked better than the green. Nice regardless :D


Satsume (Level 7 Underboss) at 8/24/2009 5:00:07 PM

great work! ^^ 


RollerKingdom (Level 1 Rookie) at 8/24/2009 3:26:35 PM

OMG that's awesome :D gotta fav it! nice skills!


Jinn (Level 8 Guerrilla) at 8/24/2009 2:06:04 PM

{ That's the third biggest monkey head I've ever seen!


Dex (Level 11 Psychopath) at 8/24/2009 1:50:38 PM

wonderful! i see you're getting into the animated previews like myself, hehe =D

while the black on the characters draws your eyes in i believe it's a bit too harsh and could be a tad lighter but still draw interest. also, the turtle's face is BLEH! =) great work.

and excellent, a new genre! i think i'll leave this one to you though, since you've done it so well =) keep it up!


Mykola (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 8/24/2009 1:46:21 PM

dude if you only knew how glad I am to see this piece today. so refreshing, makes my rusty brain bubbling with ideas again. thank you
