Description (...)
'Then I did not imagine your eyes on me'
'No, you did not. I stood on the top tower peering into space long after you became indistinguishable dot on the road'
'Thank you'


Illustration to Kivan and Aurora's (charname's) parting, inspired by one talk from Domi's mod.

It's set in the end of Baldur's Gate(game). Aurora's watching Kivan leaving for Shilmista. She's bitter, because she thinks that she'll never see him again...
And Imoen, the Pink Thief, who caught her up and keeps Aurora company. Aurora has her 'first BG' appearance, which she had to change after events in SoA. Yeah, from the beginning of SoA. That's how I explain why Imoen and Jaheira look different in BG and BG2.
I also planned to add Xan's face, but... he was distant to Aurora, after he's learnt about her heritage. And Kivan still sees Aurora as his friend.
Btw. they are facing eastern gate of Baldur's Gate.

Okay, I cursed this picture several times, because it was incredibly difficult to draw >___<' Backgrounds on their own are challenging, but there were so many other things.. (crowd, small people, Imoen's pose, buildings).
Gotta love Picassa 3. Thanks to few effects it looks more like a sun setting :3


But still, it was nice to draw. I'm kind of proud of the sky and Kivan's face.

Newer version is here: Namaarie

Baldur's Gate belongs to Bioware
Aurora is mine.
The text on the beginning isn't mine either, it's an extract from above mentioned mod.

Ależ epicki rysunek! Bardzo podoba mi się ambitna perspektywa i mnogość szczegółów. Ach, i narysowałaś przepiękne niebo! Brawo!

Pikne kolory ^^ Ale nie znam tej gry, więc to wszystko, co mogę powiedzieć.

Znaczy, obrazek oczywiście ładny
Stare dobre kredki są najlepsze

SailorLi In reply to Koralgolster [2010-09-20 18:44:02 +0000 UTC]

dziękować.
w skrócie to gra jest o dziecku boga mordu. Dwie dziewczyny na pierwszym planie są owymi dziecięciami, a koleś, z którym się żegna, jest jednym z towarzyszy.

Taaa, mam te kredki od roku, a dopiero miesiąc temu dowiedziałam się, jak się z nich korzysta...

Koralgolster In reply to SailorLi [2010-09-20 19:54:43 +0000 UTC]

"Te" to znaczy jakie? To jakieś specjalne kredki?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SailorLi In reply to Koralgolster [2010-09-20 19:57:40 +0000 UTC]

akwarelowe. Można nimi normalnie kolorować, jak i rozmazać wodą - dają efekt farby (niebo na moim rysunku jest przykładem tej właściwości).

Koralgolster In reply to SailorLi [2010-09-20 19:59:52 +0000 UTC]

A faktycznie, trochę widać... I te kolory *-*

SailorLi In reply to Koralgolster [2010-09-20 20:02:46 +0000 UTC]

jak zbiorę więcej kasy, to kupię sobie więcej kolorów. Tyle że ceny Faber Castella (firmy kredek) mnie przerażają...

Koralgolster In reply to SailorLi [2010-09-20 20:04:49 +0000 UTC]

Fakt, Faber Castell jest drogi... Nie wiem, jak kredki, ale ołówki mają świetne

SailorLi In reply to Koralgolster [2010-09-20 20:09:32 +0000 UTC]

pamiętam, że chciałam kupić kredki...
te same kredki, co ja mam teraz, tyle że w metalowym pudełku.
200 złotych.

ja za swoje dałam 40.

Backgrounds are tremendously challenging, andI think you should have gongrats for this one. I haven't heard of domi's mod, but it sounds interesting.

SailorLi In reply to realityhelix [2010-09-20 08:04:14 +0000 UTC]

thank you so much!

btw. the mod is 'Kivan and Deheriana companions for BG2'/'Kivan of Shilmista'

it's really well-written and develops Kivan character too (well...he didn't have chance to speak in the first BG ^^' too bad for him)

ależ mi się ta praca podoba, takie żywe kolory i widać, że się napracowałaś przy niej... ludki fajnie wyglądają
perspektywa trochę zawodzi, ale to zrozumiałe... wcale nie jest łatwa

świetne

Oh, Li, it's lovely. The sunset image, the colours, the details...what a gem of a drawing.

Yes, backgrounds are hard! >.< But you just keep working at them!

awww, thanks! Your comments always cheer me up ^^
I've noticed that whenever you comment art, you use unique words, like an art critique...(that's a compliment!)
Yeah, you won't improve unless you draw them xp

I thought that no one would recognise Khalid, after I made his colours close to Flamming Fist mercenary ^^'

Na prawo od fontanny powinni stać Khalid z Jaheirą (przyszli z Elminsterem), ale Khalid wyszedł mi jak najemnik Płomiennej Pięści ^^'
