Description What I've been working on for the last... three days? Between studying for my finals, that is. It's for a contest on wajas.

I like it. I'm not sure if I like the way the picture doesn't really blend with the background well, but besides that, I'm relatively pleased with this.

I've come to the conclusion that it's impossible for me to do a background'd picture and not add anything shiny at the end. >> -prods background- Five minutes before I should be finished, I think, 'HEY! Lets add lightning!" So to the contrast we go.

...I like lightning. owo

......HOLY SNAP NOCHI.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. o______O

Seriously. This is..Absolutely gorgeous.

Not only have you clearly spent time and effort on the figures, the background is superb and complements the characters.

WHY CAN'T I ACHIEVE THIS?!1111

I MEAN...APPLAUSE FOR YOU. XD

..But..WOW. o__O

The poses are wonderful and really are dynamic. WHICH IS A THUMBS UP!1

And Kazzika..Is so lovely. ;o; I WANT ONE!11

I think if you want to make the characters blend more with the background, you should include some drops of water running down each character, and little splatters of water as the rain hits them. o:

Right now, it kinda looks like "LOL I DODGE RAIN DROPZ!111" XD But yeah.

IT STILL ROCKS OUT LOUD. (And I'm totally giving you long comments since I'm so late. BAD MEHAE.)

I was all "Kazzika"? -looks up again to make sure what deviation this is-

I tried the rain stuff. :/ If you look closely you can see a few places where it looks like it bounced off, buuttttt. I think I've decided that they're just waterproof. xD

The contest's only been going for a few days, though. c: There's going to be lots more entries, especially with the prizes you put forth.

I'm usually a really slow drawer, but the way Kurushimi came out when I linearted her inspired meto move faster. I surprised myself by getting it entered so early. o_o I'm usually a "As the bell rings" sort of person.

True, but still, I'm obligated to give the best entrant the prize, and look forward to good entries like yours and windseeker's in my last contest.

4 people won first place in my last contest, I got some good entries in that one, I couldn't even choose one.

I think the lightening works. :3 The brightness of the snow, and the darkness of the waja's coats (from the angle that we're seeing them) looks more... Purposeful is not the right word. And it's not even spelled right. ;;


But rly i do hate u. D:

so much that i'm like. faving. ;;

Kunochi In reply to marine-snow [2007-06-08 19:30:34 +0000 UTC]

I did a lot of work on the main char in the picture after I put her in the picture, basically trying to make her blend in more. I think I succeeded in a more 'wet' look, at least, though the picture isn't as clean as it was before.

marine-snow In reply to Kunochi [2007-06-08 20:45:14 +0000 UTC]

Drippy water, or like, water splatters might have made it look wetter, but I wouldn't go that far. XDD I'd be afraid I'd mess it up or something. :< But, it looks great, anyway. <333
