Description The day u chose 2 leave me
it rained constantly outside.
In truth I swore the rain 2 be
the tears from Cupid's eyes.

Not my usual style, but I just wanted to mess around with stocks (originals provided in links). A friend pointed out it was my first manip with both weather, building/interior and model.

Thanks to

stock.xchang for excellent service and cracked glass:

Tolkienmaster for raindrops (I could probably have made them myself, but I was feeling lazy ):

I'm really hoping I haven't forgotten anyone now... I've been running low on sleep and high on coffeine the last days, so...

This is how I felt last summer. Not only was I seperated by my boyfriend (by three measly hours and I still hadn't gotten my license!) but I couldn't see any of my friends, either. I could have seen one friend when I was in town for a dental appointment, but he decided to sleep in (past 11!) instead of coming to see me. That hurt.

My boyfriend did come to see me a few times, and I drove the three hours (which turned into five due to an errand in the city and many blocked streets due to a Tall Ships festivle) to see him.

So...yeah, in a nutshell, I can feel this one.

Aww

Yes, we all have days like this, unfortunately. I hope you didn't go too hard on your friend - I'm not a morning person either so I can sleep for pretty long But I can understand your feelings.

Thank you so much for your comments, and favs, and the :+watch: - I appreciate it very, very much.

I'll have a manip of Liadan uploaded soon, I hope you'll like it

well... beautifull pic.

but i just can't understand why everyone longs for light sunshine and day... night can be so much more beautyfull and romantic and a little misterious! i'd sit there just to watch the moon and feel better every second i can look at this big ball in the sky^^

To be honest, I'm more active at night than in the day Everythings just more quiet then. However, I based this manip on the poem by Tupac and the song "Ain't no sunshine when she's gone", so I sorta went for the gloomy look.

Thanks for the comment and Happy New Year!

Beautiful manip - I like the dark mood, the tones compliment it nicely and you did a great job with blending.

Wizard-Studios [2006-12-06 16:48:26 +0000 UTC]

Very nice as usual. I'd like to see you experiment with some different styles though- less blurry perhaps?

Well done anyway

Eil In reply to Wizard-Studios [2006-12-07 00:24:43 +0000 UTC]

But... sharp edges takes so long time I think I'm this close to perfecting my incredibly advanced soft round brush method - you should see my first manip

I'll see if I can find a filter method to sharpen... I've used it before, but most of the time I forget - thanks for reminding me

Updated the illumination on the pic, hopefully it looks a bit better:

Wow, great choice of stocks to use, the model sort of.. sticks out, but its not that noticeable.
other than that, lovely outcome.

Eil In reply to GreenNeptune [2006-12-07 00:15:25 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I agree - thanks for pointing that out I was so tired when I finished this (and the motive wasn't exactly inspiring), I didn't bother looking it over. I tried to fix it - still doesn't look quite right... but a bit better?

Good heavens, no

The beautiful girl is Lucia, whose stocks you can find here:

Something went wrong with the Artist's comment when I posted, so the model link was missing the first 15-20 min after this was posted - trust my luck to get 30+ views in that time...
