That's definitely how I imagined Kotir to look like. Beautifully done.

I really like this. Simple, but not simple. Black and white but full of so many different shades. And of course the subject matter is great.

...I always hear Professor Farnsworth when someone says "Good News".

The alternative would be a fun bouncy house with streamers and balloons! If the vermin really did live there, I don't think they'd be bothering the rest of Mossflower much...

Heh, that would have been different!
Sounds like the sort of place Kotir might have been if it was run by Mr Dark from the first Rayman game...

Wow, just looking at that sends chills up my spine. It looks cold as in snow cold, 'cause it's obviously a winter scene, but the grim darkness of the castle is just - scary. And majestic at the same time. Wonderful job.

This is beautiful! I love this style it looks so real! I really like that you made this black and white it helps with the cruel and icy effect! I love the Brian Jacques Redwall series. This is definately worth a fave! Great job.

Eshva In reply to SparrowFairfax [2010-09-03 20:24:31 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much! Actually, there's brown and green in there if you squint, but I'm glad it looks generally bleak, that's what I was going for Thank you again, very much.

This is really gorgeous and... uhhh, I really wish I was good at critiques. I gotta take an art criticism class or something, t'would be good for me.

It reminds me of The Fall of the House of Usher, or some other such thing that Poe would write.

jhfklsjhfdkfgh!@!! Do you know, I could not remember for the life of me remember that title. I failed so hard at describing it to my friends ("that one! With the girl buried alive! IN A SCARY HOUSE!") and it wasn't until your comment that I remembered. Thank you.

Also, thank you for the nice words

Seriously it's not fair! you have such awesome black and white skills I love how you add the feel of texture (of the snow or teh tiles in teh roof and the stone on the walls >.<) *sobs in envy!!!*

Saankyyuuuuu

Haha there's brown and green too but it's ok, I know they're faint XD I did start this painting b&w afterall.

Oh those silly textures. 1/3rd is accidental (I looked at the pic and went, hey wait, when did I paint those tiles - for real), 1/3rd is gritty brushwork, and the last is overlaid specific textures on reeeeeeeeeeaally low opacity (like 6%).

I squinted to see it but I saw it! its really really faint! (green flags???)

Lol yes! DING DING DING! GREEN FLAGS lol. I work on two different computers and the brightness/saturation are REALLY different, so its hard for me to tell which one's got the *correct* settings. In other words, I can't tell if what I see is the same as what OTHERS see. Blargh!

Cream cheese! Mmmmm on a toasted bagel from Tim Horton's mmmmmmmm.

Hahahha I don't think there is a computer with the correct settings..... after all I noticed that what I see on one comp I don't on another... super changes between brands of computers too! XD

too much to ask... standardness... it's like asking for all humans to be the same carbon copy.... XP hahaha besides the quirks are what make life interesting XD
