I want to draw 2 or 3 different things right now but I can’t get a hang of any of them LOL…

I’m surprised the colours turned out like that, usually I’d have to layer-mode the shit out of a pic to get those kind of colours ): but ya I wanted to draw the background of a huge castle in the distance in front of a huge cloud, then I thought I could somehow work this into the veloce overlooking a disaster scene I wanted redo before. But I guess I forgot nice blue skies != disaster… I GUESS I CAN’T BE LAZY AND HAVE TO DRAW 2 DIFFERENT PICS BOOO

And I was going to take a picture of my cat sleeping, since she rarely ever stays still when I try to take pics of her. Except she was sleeping on this very unfashionable towel and I was like man this is totally ruining my otherwise ~*kawaii*~ photo… THEN I REALIZED, SHE’S BLACK AND WHITE!! I can just hue the towel to some other less obtrusive colour. But instead of doing that I made this rainbow gif HAHA

She is immune to hue and saturation

    Aw, lol, at first I thought I was getting a nice happy picture with that blue sky and then it kind of disintegrates into chaos, a mysterious castle…oh, and Veloce, too! Hi Veloce's fancy sash! Although in nearly all seriousness, there's something that quirks my lips upward about how a disaster can happen amongst a clear day. Like a slap in the face, if that makes sense.

    The rainbow! Guh, my eyes…it compels me to eat Skittles. And pet the kitty.



  3. It may not be the disaster scene you had in mind, but it remiss me of an oncoming storm.

      haha yeah, it kind of turned into a randomly different but working concept LOL



  4. I'm seconding what others have already said but, I really like the contrast of blue skies and destruction. Its kind of like when you're in a place with a really clear view and you can see a storm coming but also clear skies at the same time? I really like the wip so far. *__*

    Hopefully you'll have time to stream the painting of that picture :).
    I wonder if it's bad that I hear "unss unss unss" like a techno song when I look at that .gif :P

      sleeping cat and techno, that's new

    Also, I really like the empty feeling that nice blue skies and destruction give off, it's like you can hear the wind blowing, if that makes any sense.




    • { Shilin }

      it does! I love that sound and feeling, that kind of openness is one of the things I am really dying to be able to illustrate.

    Nice blue skies doesn't mean that destruction hasn't happened, if anything she could be looking at the aftermath of a disaster. Besides, it gives for nice dynamic and contrast. I also really like what you have going on in the sketch in terms of colors and composition. :)



  8. awladusljanedasd RAINBOW CAT. Sounds like a meme.

    Vel is so destructive. Does she ever feel bad for breaking stuff with her magic? D: like Keri's ship!
