Description

This has been languishing on my hard drive halfway colored for God knows how long... I found it a couple days ago and decided to finish it since I always liked the concept... I just forgot about it entirely. XP

I know it's filler and movie/anime canon only, but I've always adored the childhood flashbacks they added of Inuyasha as a child, particularly the one of the other nobles of the court tricking him into thinking he could play with them and then deserting him. It's always had such a feeling of isolation and lonliness that I got this visual in my head and had to get it down on paper.

It's in the third movie, I believe, that Kagome explains the concept of a "sport" to him saying it's a game which makes him flash back to that again briefly before telling her "I don't like games."

I have a fully saturated version of this but the brightness of the red and yellow of the ball made it seem a little too... cheery. I tried kicking down the saturation just a touch and this seemed to work a bit better. (This is why I let pieces sit overnight before I post them. lol)

Aw! I like how you made the back ground white like he doesn't even have color to be with him... Sorry that probably doesn't even make any sense!^^
Anyways.......... cool pic!^^

You actually aren't that far off! I made the background all white to make him look isolated/alone.

Yeah these parts really kill me, so sad. And even though it's only filler it still seems like something that could happen in the main series, unlike the Naruto filler. Although their stories of loneliness are up there with this stuff

While I'm flattered that you want to, I'd rather you not. That's a blanket policy for me. Thank you for asking, though.

Well, I knew I was doing the right thing by asking ^^ It's ok and I understand, thank you for the fast reply too!

KrisCynical In reply to CinnyChan [2011-12-18 09:40:46 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I appreciate that. A lot of people just take without bothering to ask, so it's always nice when people do.

CinnyChan In reply to KrisCynical [2011-12-18 13:06:15 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it really is unfair to artists. They work so hard on each piece and decide to share them with the world knowing that Internet it's a risky place and people still abuse of what they have and disrespect others. people should stop a minute to think about what they do, sometimes...

I don't like crying, it's why I don't dwell too long on the scene.

What do you mean by "use it?" Please don't just take it before getting permission.

Scarecroww In reply to KrisCynical [2009-01-17 08:30:26 +0000 UTC]

By using it i mean where we control char's but i don't think it will be used beacuse the hole site is shutting down : /

I still don't quite understand what you mean, but I don't like the "using it I mean we control char's", so I'm going to have to deny you permission to use the image. My apologies.

Yeah, but I especially like your use of 3-D art.

KrisCynical In reply to Devario [2009-01-23 05:48:11 +0000 UTC]

By 3D do you mean depth of field or my shading? I'm not quite sure what you mean.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Devario In reply to KrisCynical [2009-01-23 15:33:21 +0000 UTC]

Well, when you look at it, it looks almost like 3-D.So yes, depth of feild, but your shading is also pretty good.

KrisCynical In reply to Devario [2009-01-23 16:02:06 +0000 UTC]

Ah, okay. Thanks for clarifying. Depth of field is something I've had trouble with before.
