Description The slow decay of everything that holds you together... The hopes, the thoughts, the principles... Everything slowly falling apart while you hold on to the last drop of faith...

I've been swamped in work, chess and promo rendering lately, so not so many artistic renders are coming out of my computer. Hope it will change soon, chess is getting quiet and promo's are almost finished for sending. 

DAZStudio and Iray. Postwork in Photoshop and Picasa.

All comments are welcome.

Thank you. Took me a lot of bats and postwork, I might have gotten a bit carried away by Ron's brushes.... But I like what came out.

I don't know, can one have to much of Ron's brushes?  I think its just enough

Chanteur-de-Vent In reply to IceDragonArt [2017-09-14 17:10:24 +0000 UTC]

Yes, one can. You know, when everything is covered with them.... But then it's like abstract art or something...

Lovely. Especially the horns   
But seriously, these eerie renders are so cool, and this one is really so... well, sad, obviously.

I got a bit dark with this one. Started out by the horns (for Mavrosh's challenge), but then a random pose sticked and it got a bit depressive and sad.

This is a cool concept and a great depiction of decay.

Thank you. I was surprised how glass shatter brushes and re-textured bat flocks can be led to feel like shatters of someone's body.

Overdone? I would disagree, but I could see where one could. I love Ron's brushes, though don't use them nearly enough anymore. (and you are quite welcome!)

I tend to keep adding stuff just because I can. In the end I'm never sure if it's making things more enhanced or just swamps everything in noise. But then I'm never good at stopping once I'm doing something anyway.

Tu es Français non ? Et oui mais l'art et l'admiration du monde qui nous entour est plus magnifique que les ténèbres qui se tapisse dans nos cœur

Chanteur-de-Vent In reply to Hellbrumes [2017-06-17 08:58:06 +0000 UTC]

Je suis Néerlandais, mais je parle Français, c'est ma langue deuxième. 

Mais bien, parfois ces ténèbres sont la raison pour création d'art et d'un nouveau monde. C'est difficile de voir la lumière quand on a jamais vu la nuit.

Je te crois, mais on dit que chaque substance peut être un poison quand on y a du trop. Et puis ci on ne prends plus que on a besoin, ce ne doit pas être dangereux. Moi, j'ai des cycles de tristesse, quand on accepte la nuit comme un niveau poétique et sombre. Peut-être même un peut de dépression. Mais après chaque cet cycle je reviens au lumière, pour le apprécier plus.

Oui je suis un peu pareil , mais je garde toujours une admiration pour la vie et la complexité de celle ci quelque soit mon etat d'ame car elle est juste magique . Mais ca me fait penser que j'ai écrit un poeme que je n'ai pas poster qui correspond bien a t'as derniere phrase . Je vais finalement le poster malgres qu'il soit en Français ,pour toi ^^

What I absolutely love about your art is the deepness and emotion that it conveys.  There was a time when those type of words consumed my every fiber.  Dark music will bring it back to the surface.  Anyway, just saying I really love this.

I hope you're not in such a dark place now, but I'm glad you can related. One visits this feeling from time to time, just to remember the contrast with the light.

Then I guess one shouldn't throw the key away. But despite being one of the most inspiring places, it doesn't mean one should live there.

Demons have neither faith or hope. That's a big part of what makes them demons, not the mention the horns that sprout out of their heads LOL! Or is this some other being? 

Wonderful, thought-provoking work either way. Your art always has me gazing at it for some time, nice job!

Chanteur-de-Vent In reply to barbarryan [2017-06-10 10:00:44 +0000 UTC]

I guess it depends on the demons. Some may become human, while transferring from one feeling to another. Perhaps he tried that, perhaps he almost succeeded, just to fall apart at the limit. 

And thank you. I'm glad it makes you stop for a second to look, that's what I would want it to be. Something thought provoking.

This actually gave me goosebumps. Such a sad end...

What did you use for the "decay", if I may ask? It looks brilliant how it is drifting from his body. Very dynamic.

You've been gone a while.

Chanteur-de-Vent In reply to tykey35 [2017-06-10 09:57:48 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. I'm glad the sad feeling came across. 

The decay is the mix from the re-shadered bats flock freebie (made white) and Ron's War Essentials broken glass in red.
