Description In the dead of the night, the monochrome scenery.
The richly colored impression that I wished for.
The more they're spread out, the more colors are added like a peacock's feathers.
The magic of the blinding light, towards the spiral of fantasy.

The neon cocktail, the world through glass.

[alice nine - Rainbows]

Dint work out well eh? Well less is more as they say It's a great drawing Was it a copy, or did you just use a pic as reference? Or just memory?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

nightfalldream In reply to Serperoth [2009-07-22 01:22:25 +0000 UTC]

Thankies. And it's not traced, it's drawn by observation (= by using a reference). But the paper has to be marked with a grid first so I can get the proportions right. Or I print a same sized reference and every now and then I put it behind the sketch and hold it against a lamp or the sunlight through my window to see if everything matches. Or I use my hands, objects and so on to check. If something doesn't match, then I erase the wrong lines and draw them again. It can be a pain in the ass sometines, but all in all it's fun. °3°~

Besides, if the sketch was traced I would have mentioned it in the description. ^^

Serperoth In reply to nightfalldream [2009-07-22 08:08:51 +0000 UTC]

I didn't mean trace I was asking if you had the same picture and just did in pencil, or if you had Nao's face and just composed the rest Either way its cool I need to finish my song...

No no, I didn´t add anything by myself. Except for the blue background behind his head~

Song? What kind of song?

Serperoth In reply to nightfalldream [2009-07-22 09:40:49 +0000 UTC]

I don't see a blue background... It could be my PC, but...

I write lyrics occasionally, and now I just need to finish the chorus for the second refrain It's called Wings Of Hope

nightfalldream In reply to Serperoth [2009-07-22 12:46:04 +0000 UTC]

WHAT? You don´t see those blue parts behind his hair and on the right and left side? I didn´t mean that the whole background is blue~

Oh , that´s really lovely! I used to write lyrics like a MANIAC when I was 12-16. I have a huge collection. But most of them are kinda weird or dark. I mean not gory or something, but... somehow not easy to understand. Jim Morrison was my inspiration during this time...
Back then I used to compose melodies as well, but I was actually too shy to play them on piano (= because everyone could hear them), so I stopped.

Back to you: How would you describe the music of "Wings of hope"? Sorry, if I´m bombarding you with questions, but well.. I think it´s cool. ^^

Serperoth In reply to nightfalldream [2009-07-22 14:51:26 +0000 UTC]

I... I dun really see much of a blue-ness... There IS something, but it's faint... Maybe it's my screen
Jim Morrisson? The guy who used LSD instead of pen and paper? I kid. But The Doors are WAY trippy
I use a general tune in my head, as I am a music noob...

Well the lyrics are Power Metal-style (Think Blind Guardian), but it's somewhat of a ballad...

nightfalldream In reply to Serperoth [2009-07-22 17:00:47 +0000 UTC]

I know about Morrison and I´m not proud for having him as an idol whatsoever back then. I really wonder if he had ever written anything without shooting up before. >__>

I was a big classic rock whatever it's called fan at that time, but now I think.. it totally sucks. With some small exceptions of course (LED ZEPPELIN!!!), but I really can't stand some people nowadays who say that ONLY this kind of music has quality and bash others verbally for liking modern bands.
Of course, there are many old pieces that are incredible, like Led Zep's "Kashmir" for example. But some times some progressive rock fans tend to be more than annoying. I've been laughed at by such people for liking somewhat mainstream bands like Offspring or Evanescence. Well, I know, they are quite commercialized, but still... They do have songs that I like, soo why shouldn't I listen to them? I even listen to pop songs when I like the beat or something! And I mean, at least those people are not high on drugs or stoned when they compose something...

And something else. I literally HATE it when such people doubt by judging by my appearance that I listen to heavy music!

Sry, I got carried away again. .__.'

I was sure the piece would be something like this!

Serperoth In reply to nightfalldream [2009-07-23 07:13:24 +0000 UTC]

Not everything he wrote was drug-induced... But you're right. Just listen to "The End"... Or not... It's too sad

I like classic rock too, and I don't think it TOTALLY sucks. Led Zep are, were, and will be amazing (I WANNA HAVE JIMMY PAGE'S GUITAR-BABIES!), but it's not the ONLY good music. Why yes, I bash people for listening to some modern bands (Whiners mostly), I think that modern music can be good.
About the old pieces. "Break On Through". 2 minutes of awesome. And to be honest I don't like the Offspring They're your call. Hell my PC playlist has everything from Blind Guardian to Weird Al in it!

The only thing I doubt about you when I see you is whether you still were in school I dunno, you seem a little bit older than that... My opinion, that was

Well... I suppose that's good? I'll upload it when it's finished^^ Hope that you comment *big kitty cute face*

nightfalldream In reply to Serperoth [2009-07-23 08:15:51 +0000 UTC]

I´ve listened to The End, and God, I was so addicted to it...
But my fav used to be Roadhouse Blues and I still like it very much actually. But yeah, I guess I can´t listen too long to such music~
I know "Break On Through" and I used to like it as well.
But right now I can only remember the refrain.

You´ll upload it? Wait, where? YT?

Serperoth In reply to nightfalldream [2009-07-23 08:32:34 +0000 UTC]

I love The End
Roadhouse Blues is also good. Summer's Almost Gone...
I like old stuff too... CCR, Doors, Beatles, Stones... Led Zep OFC

sooo good. I wish I could be that good with color. Problem is, I suck at coloring because I can't ever either pick the right colors, or mix them up correctly. *cries*

Awesome work. Keep it going!

No, don´t cry and don´t stress yourself. ;_; I mean, it´s not like I picked exactly the same colours like the ones of the reference either, you know. I just pick the ones that look similar or the ones that match with each other to my opinion.

MoonlightSlaughter In reply to nightfalldream [2009-07-21 10:56:17 +0000 UTC]

Ah. Still, even if I am simply designing it from my own thoughts, I can't ever get the colors right. ><
