Description Uggh this took forever >_<

The thing I have most difficulty doing are backgrounds, especially the detailed ones. My bgs are always kind of abstract and really few detailed.

So I thought it was time to train them.. since I'm gonna need it for my manga.

I tried focusing lighting and details here.

Made in paper with a 2-B pencil and adjusted the levels in PS.

A part of my story is passed in a book store.. so i'll use this pic in the future.

Almost kinda medievel bookstore isn't it!! ^^ The books would have killed my patience...T.T Amazing!! Only thing that's bugging me....the floor and the wall are like...conjoined? Maybe you want it like that i don't know, but it just seems too much for the eye at one time...especially for a manga that's gonna be resized to make it even smaller....it would look very messy...also the table seems a bit skinny, even with the perspective considered...

AkaiSoul In reply to Silver-Strife-Angel [2008-09-26 16:21:58 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I tried to make it look medieval.. xD
They killed mine.. I don't want to draw this many books never again xDD

Thanks!

yeah.. there's actually a lot of weird things here... I guess I got consumed by all the books and didn't give enough effort in some other parts...
