Description Edit: Repainted over the whole thing (toned most everything the grey-green base colour I use and went from there). If I'd been smart/not lazy I'd have redrawn the bridge. But I am dumb/lazy and didn't, so. Here's the old one, for comparison- [link]
Much better.

Giant glowy mushroom-jellyfish-things never looked so pretty.

I've been drawing, and a lot, just nothing good. So I haven't uploaded much. Sowwy. >.<

This is gorgeous. I love your colors and the composition. <3
I echo the others' statements though. What happens if you take away the sketchy lines? Or perhaps even retain some of them but use, say, the lighter color? You could also push the depth even more (especially at the bottom, by that archway) by making the shadows even more intense.

Thanks.
I thought about ditching the lines, but I really hate working like that and it was just a quicky, so I didn't bother. >.> It kinda takes the fun out of it.

I think I agree about the shadows though. I'll keep that in mind for next time. Thanks!

I really like the cave idea!! The only thing I would suggest is ot make it where the lines can't be seen... ^__^ That rather knocks down the punch the this kind of landscape gives... I also suggest a little more saturation and higher contrast... that will give it a gloomy look.

How does higher saturation + contrast = gloomy? o_O

It does... Most people think that high saturation is ultra bright... but I guess I use thatterm for anything relative to rich colors (which includes dark colors like maroon, blood red, navy and such). High contrast would just make the super dark, rich shades pop even more along with dark, heavy shadows.

^___^ Am I using the term "higher saturation" wrong?

Wail, seeing as "higher saturation" generally turns into neon pretty fast it confused me for a moment. Part of what makes darker colours like maroon or navy what they are is the *slightly* lower saturation coupled with the lower values, so...

I just read it wrong

oook, so we're on the same page now ^___^ good.

You don't really need to fiddle with the pic that much... If you wish.. you could just open it up and fiddle with the saturation, valuing and contrast and then done... ^__^ If you don't, then it's still cool!

I be still watching what you're doing!

I could spend hours just wandering around down there. It's pretty, huge, and full of juicy lootable Falmer.

The Falmer give me the creeps. I spent most of my time down there letting Meeko and Lydia tank everything while looting whatever I could. XD

Sneaking around in the darkness is an amusing pastime, also.
