Description this is a complete redo of the 'Coltaines charge' pic I done a while back, it's probably the longest a pic has ever taken me

cheers it took a fair old time to get what I had in mind down on "paper" and it still needs some touch ups (not the dirty kind) but it turned out all right, glad you like it too

Tattersail In reply to slaine69 [2008-12-18 15:09:49 +0000 UTC]

well, it's a difficult thing to get what you see in your head down on paper. Sometimes your skillz just don't match your visions. That's how it is for me at least



But you've done an excellent job of it

I'll get right to it. RL has been a bit busy lately and I think I have ignored this club more than I should have


Maybe we should hold a new contest soon?

Oh yeah, I love Tehol and Buggs relationship in the previous one! I also love Deathhouse Gates! Though, Garden's of the Moon I found a little confusing. But still pretty good.

TimothyH In reply to slaine69 [2008-11-01 14:16:18 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it also added in some comedy to it. And even enemies showed compassion to each other. I liked that most of all about that story.

It can't possibly be rejected. Period. If it against the odds is, then I'll kick their precious arses.

So what are you going to do then? Can't you just make it smaller? I spied at that prophesyforumthingy and found your posts. They sure are picky!

I'm gonna give it some touch ups first, sneaky little ones to improve the picture a bit, then I'll resize it in photo bucket (cuz it's easy) and see what size I can get away with

At work in a shitty call center in London, I'm trying to draw more to get a portfolio together but I'm knackered in the evenings. You coming down to Chelt for graduation? I'm not graduating but I'm going to re-live the good old days.
