Description "I can't come with you, Peter. I've forgotten how to fly."

This one's for . You're an talented artist who've given alot to the community; you're always willing to help and I feel privileged to be your friend.

And your working/replying capacity is admirable.
------------------------------------------------------

Peter Pan was one of my favorite stories as a child. Although... I still think Wendy was stupid for leaving Neverland and taking the Lost Boys with her so Peter had to be all alone and - right? Right?

Anyhow.

I've had this one lying around for a while. With all that's been going on I haven't had the time to work on it. But it bugged me to have it unfinished, so I'm staying up late to add the final touches.

You forgot everything, so Peter will forget you.

Hey this is really good. Can I ask how did you get the painted effect on the skin?

Eil In reply to Irishchicky [2007-11-19 00:19:41 +0000 UTC]

Of course I use the smudge tool alot, and to get more highlights/shadows, I brush black and white on a separate layer, and put it on Soft Light.

I've uploaded 2 of my psd files, where I think I use some of the same technique... it's been a while so I don't remember quite. But you could download them and see if any of it makes sense : [link] [link]

Hope that helped. And thanks for the comment

Oh, I absolutely love Peter Pan...it's definitely one of my favorite stories, ever since childhood. It's interesting seeing Wendy again at the window, but looking a little older. *sigh* When my high school did Peter Pan, I was grown-up Wendy, and that was my line. "I can't come with you, Peter. I've forgotten how to fly."

IGNIPHIS In reply to Eil [2007-03-22 17:47:17 +0000 UTC]

Yes, that was French I'm sorry ^^" I was so surprised by the studied elegance and the artistic quality of your art that I expressed my feelings in French To tell the truth, my French is better than my English

Eil In reply to IGNIPHIS [2007-03-30 18:39:55 +0000 UTC]

No problem I took French for 5 years, so I got some of the basics... like "Je ne sais pas"

This is so cool! I definitely have to say that my favorite part of the piece is Peter's shadow on the wall, the only way we're able to know he's still there....so amazing! I'm very glad you did finish this because it would have been a shame to leave it undone! :claps:

I never saw the whole movie of Peter Pan, but yes, Wendy is a jerk

I just love what you did with the image, great job! Thank you so much for showing us such a beautiful art

By the way... Iยดve always imagined Wendy as a little girl (like in the movie) and never this sexiest

Eil In reply to Erinamis [2007-03-14 11:13:27 +0000 UTC]

She's grown up now! You should see the rest of the movie if you get the chance - it's cute I liked "Hook" better, though - an old movie with Robin Williams and that I loved as a kid. The Peter Pan there fits better with my mental image than the boy in the new movie.

Thankies

But you did an amazing job on capturing the emotion in the line.
