Thank you. This took me a really long time to do. I want to do some more really detailed stuff like this again. Just have to find the time.

You got some pretty sick stuff yourself! This one is crazy. Looks like an atomic blast in the background. Love the bright haziness in the background, with the focus on the foreground. Cool.

wow, again i see that "mandelbulbish" approach, fantastic work...
...and i don't agree with "SleinadFlar" - the white and the backlight look very good to me...

here is an example that fits a bit better...

can't find the one i'm looking for, give you this one instead, from my fave master of mandelbulb works and manipulations as well...

i seriously hope i don't disturb you with my spamming...

A 'simple' but effective method of creating depth. The scenery is fantastic, as are the details. Hats off to you, sir!

However, (and this is a minor nitpick personally I would have added something of a background, just to break the white.

I very much like how you've combined the traditional and digital media together, it works quite well in how it conveys depth and atmosphere!

Thankyou. Your compliment means alot because I love your work.
I want to use my computer for touchups but I don't want my stuff to look too digital. I'm very fond
of pencil work and getting textures that aren't created with a computer.

Thanks. I wanted alot of depth in it and I didn't want it to be too hard to see all
the characters in it. The fading seemed to work.

These beings seem to exist in an amorphous state, perhaps only half materialized?
I think that would be the case in a hell or underworld where creatures exists beyond death.

i like how you used the digital part in the traditional drawing...i mean the fading into the distance

Yes, the fading into the distance was very important to me. It took a very long time but it was worth it.

Lightnymfa [2012-07-09 22:26:56 +0000 UTC]

just wondering, how long do you take to make a drawing this detailed? it would be a hell to draw all these lines so detailed and precise. i really like your style, i can't wait to see more of it!

your drawing style and characters remind me of someone i had in my class last year, he used to draw creatures like yours too, it's amazing to see how someone can put so many detail in a drawing!

Hi,
Honestly, I don't know how long exactly I spent drawing it. I worked on it off and on for maybe 4 or 5 months.

Lightnymfa In reply to curtis-macdonald [2012-07-10 10:08:08 +0000 UTC]

ah, i see. i tend to abandon my drawings if i don't work on them with as little time in between as possible. but then again, i don't have alot of paitence XD

i draw dragons with scales smaller then the tip of a pen. i guess that is something to get impaitent about.

still, i love the details in your work! it looks so real!
