Description And before you, you can see the reason that I don't make backgrounds in my pictures.
It is also the reason that I made this one. I thought that a bit of practice was needed.
I must say, it looks much better in the thumbnail , almost photographic XD

Please, any advice, crits suggestions are all really appreciated!

Yes, that is table mountain >.>

I really think your backgrounds are really simplistic and nice. This one almost looks monochromatic. ;O

Duuude, Ama...This looks so incredibly fantastic and pretty..

I wish we actually had a chance to see this in the real world ;o;

Amadoodles In reply to Flucking-RaveFIERCE [2010-08-16 18:42:11 +0000 UTC]

lol it's Table Mountain in Cape Town. Quite easy to spot, being a giant flat mountain and all XD
Maybe one day you can see it (sans dragons of course!). It would I admit, be incredibly better with the dragons.

Flucking-RaveFIERCE In reply to Amadoodles [2010-08-17 14:29:29 +0000 UTC]

Yes! I looked it up and it's beautiful.
I'd love to go there along with Dubai [link]

Although, I heard there was a huge construction boom and I'm not sure if it still looks like this

My cousin lives in Dubai, I wish I oculd visit her sometime
I heard that it was very sandy and hot (well duh) But is a great place to shop. And I mean, on top of all of that, it's just really different, and that's the exciting bit XD

Woman, you never cease to amaze me...It DOES look like a photography...its like wow seriously. You have serious talent girl....I feel like swiming in that ocean and like....flying on those dragons...

Amazing, just amazing, I have no words to describes it. Wonderful!

Amadoodles In reply to Keberyna [2010-08-15 06:56:33 +0000 UTC]

I does look like a photograph, but only in the thumbnail XD
Once it gets a bit bigger, it just looks a bit messy.
I do like the dragons though!
psssshhhh you thank you.
I don't think it's that good though. I think I'm going to do some more of these. It's my one real weak spot with any kind of drawing.

Keberyna In reply to Amadoodles [2010-08-16 02:10:29 +0000 UTC]

Its not messy, its artistic. Its the style that makes it look even more awesome
The technique is really nice!

Your welcome though!

And please...it looks really nice. But you can do more! That doesnt hurt

Only crit I can give is that table mountain looks a little too short. And devil's peek isn't actually connected to table mountain it's self. Though I guess that can depend on from what angle you're looking at it. BUT NONE OF THAT MATTERS, because you still pulled it off awesomely. Seriously, the lighting is just amazing. And don't even get me started on the waves and the dragons. Stunning.

Amadoodles In reply to RustyBlou [2010-08-15 07:01:03 +0000 UTC]

Haha, well, I've only ever stood on table mountain once, so my memories of it are a bit fuzzy But thanks! I'll remember that next time.
^^ thank you so much. Arrg, I've just seen so many amazing artworks that are MADE by the background, and it's the one bit of a painting that I ALWAYS avoid, even traditionally >_< I thought practice was needed. ^^ I too likes the dragons XD
And thanks again

RustyBlou In reply to Amadoodles [2010-08-27 22:31:34 +0000 UTC]

Eh, s'okay. I only noticed it because I had a desktop background with Table Mountain in it. Otherwise I probably wouldn't even have noticed.

Me too! I always half-ass background, they're just not fun at all. But you're right, background can make an already beautiful drawing just that little bit better.

Amadoodles In reply to RustyBlou [2010-08-28 11:00:36 +0000 UTC]

Lol, darn you desktop background

Aaarg I know! And some artworks are practically MADE by the background.

Indeed they are. And the backgrounds are sometimes the most difficult thing to draw.

It gave me such a surprise when I saw the thumbnail And thanks, this is one of the first backgrounds that I've attempted that isn't just clouds XP
I decided I'd better work on those.
