Description This was a sketch/study that I’d done on one layer in Paint, and then later edited in Photoshop. Hehehe… you can still see all the proportion lines… but I think it’s too nice to be in Scraps.

The background is a pseudo-Spear Pillar from the Diamond, Pearl and Platinum games. Mmm, the colors are soothing here. I’ve always liked that place. There’s a sense of history and… no snow.

Wow, that's much better than I could ever hope to do on paint and one layer. *_* It is much too nice to be in scraps.

Oh, thank you! <3

I did cheat a bit in when I colored it, using more than 1 layer. The sketch was done on one layer. (That's not too unusual.)

Ah, well so long as you're practicing! It's great to keep a sketchbook for things like that. It's like a diary of drawings, so I can understand not wanting to post them. I do the very same for many of my sketches!

LOL. I agree with you on the snow. I live up in Ohio where it never seems to leave us alone. >.>;

Really nice piece.

Ah... I have kind of a phobia of cold weather, so no snow is great. XD Snow may look pretty, but it is a hassle to be around.

I'm really happy you think so!

I love the colors, especially in his scarf. c: I like snow when it's not making you walk like two feet per hour.

When the weather isn't sunny, there's a lot of liberty that can be taken on white objects.

Yes! Snow can be unbearable sometimes. I dislike accidentally breathing it in. XD

C-Sui [2009-09-06 18:42:23 +0000 UTC]

But I like the snow...D: lol Though I've never really noticed that there wasn't any on Spear Pillar. Snow wouldn't suit it right, anyhow.

I agree, this is too nice to be in Scraps. I really like Lucas' expression.

diichan In reply to C-Sui [2009-09-10 15:14:37 +0000 UTC]

Hee; it put an interesting image in my mind to think that Sinnoh's people would have ritual snow-shoveling on the Spear Pillar. XD Or the place itself being so magical, that it bends against weather itself. ...That might explain why you can't fly or teleport from its summit.

Yay! I'm glad you think so, too. His expression turned out kind of serious, albeit worried.
