Description *died from all details*

It's actually our first assignment from Environments, Props, and Structures class which I'm taking right now (because my works always lack of backgrounds...=__=" so it might be good if this class at least can bump my skills up a little...). After got it back, I played around with tones and stuffs and added a character in there (that's Louise! I haven't drawn him in ages though!)

Our professor took us wandering around downtown in Savannah, taking a bunch of references. And yes, some of SCADDY might recognize, but if not, this is a scene based off Jones Street.

D: The environment and props are based on actual references, but I redrew all of them by my own (and I won't tell you where I made mistakes on my perspective...lol, 'coz I'm lameeeee)

Done by 4B mechanical pencil, and adjusted it darker in Photoshop.

I too find the characters, the human or alien/monster form to be the most interesting. The background is always a task and not always vital, but you did great work here! The details really make it!

Ah, I thought so! I've had you on my dA watch list for forever, so I recognized the style. I'm really excited about going to SCAD next year, but it's so hard to pick a major... x.x They all look so tempting.

wow it looks awsome. I've never been that good with backgrounds myself. though to me the perspective looks a bit off, but that might just be me and my lack of tallent.
