Description [[[I know this is a HUGE image but PLEASE FULLVIEW]]]


"Streetcorner Symphony"

It's morning
I wake up
The taste of summer sweetness on my mind
It's a clear day
In this city
Let's go dance under the street lights
All the people in this world
Let's come together
More than ever
I can feel it
Can you feel it

Come on over
Down to the corner
My sisters and my brothers of every different color
Can't you feel that sunshine telling you to hold tight
Things will be alright
Try to find a better life
Come on over
Down to the corner
My sisters and my brothers there for one another
Come on over
Man I know you wanna let yourself go

Some people
It's a pity
They go all their lives and never know
How to love or to let love go
But it's alright now
We'll make it through this somehow
And we'll paint the perfect picture
All the colors of this world will run together more than ever
I can feel it
Can you feel it

Come on over
Down to the corner
My sisters and my brothers of every different color
Can't you feel that sunshine telling you to hold tight
Things will be alright
Try to find a better life
Come on over
Down to the corner
My sisters and my brothers there for one another
Come on over
Man I know you wanna let yourself go

We may never find our reason to shine
But here and now this is our time
And I may never find the meaning of life
But for this moment I am fine
So

Come on over
Down to the corner
My sisters and my brothers of every different color
Can't you feel that sunshine telling you to hold tight
Things will be alright
Try to find a better life
Come on over
Down to the corner
My sisters and my brothers there for one another
Come on over
Man I know you wanna let yourself go

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is my 1000th! Deviation!!!!! [and I'm not a stock account!]

I'm so excited! I've been working on this for the past few nights, getting section by section done little by little. It's three sheets of paper taped together. There were so many other characters [Mack, Malachi, Darnzii, Takumi, Gabe, Keione, Izdrath, Eldaron, Amar, Galiphile, Shand, Zin, Raven, Veit, Dash, River, Pollade, Lad, Amatae, Buffy, Delilah, Okalani, Evita, etc etc etc to name a few] that I really wished to include in this but ran out of room and ideas on placement for them....do forgive! Even so this tops my "highest number of characters drawn in the same image" I do believe heh. So yay for that. There's a few that came out kinda weird or wonky and some that came out great....some I can't help but smile at and others I can't stop laughing about. But all in all I'm proud. I've been wanting to do something like this for a long while. Wanted to do it for a "new year's pic" but didn't get to it but what better occassion than breaking my 1000th dev?...it'll only happen once. So I wanted to tribute all of you that mean so much to me. So to EVERYONE, I LOVE YOU!!!!

Thank you to all of you. I have never felt more part of a community and a good thing then here at DevArt. Truly there is a sense of community here and I'm so proud to be here as one of its parts. I have met so many wonderful people here. And you all....my watchers, my friends, my commenters, those who have just stopped randomly by my page or randomly peeked at a drawing, all of you here have truly made my life so much brighter. You mean the world to me!

Thank you to all of you!

There's no way I could ever say enough or sum it up in words!


So come on over...down to the corner...all my sisters and my brothers...of every different color...

thanks hehhehhe it took me a LONG time to do but I was so happy of the end result hehhee.. yeah :laugh: I upload a lot hehehe!

hmmmm *opens the pic to look again* the one holding the rum in the hat is my bro's anthro wolf pirate character Olivious, the cat with the scrunched face and flattened ears is my anthro caracal mage character Iskosian..the female kinda going "wha?" in front of him is my friend's half-snow leopard anthro half-drow character Kyndrix [Isko's wife] and she's holding their son, Jahfir, in her arms

thanks for the fav!

PoldalleLovesnare In reply to LadyLiena [2010-01-27 05:41:52 +0000 UTC]

it was well worth it in the end though! hehhehehe and it's ok. I know I'm pretty obsessed with DA and checking all my messages everynight but not everyone else is so it's all good lol! I don't expect people to look at and comment on everything after all

Uhh....well they're all played on Furcadia...but as for "based off " of anything? I know my bro's wolf guy is sorta based off of Jack Sparrow but has some Mortal Kombat influence as well. Iskosian has some influences from TheFinalDance series at least for his deities and his homelands/backstory....I don't know about his wife, Kyndrix.

This drawing is so freakishly awesome I just love it! And you're right, Saul turned out very nice I see why it was giving you so much trouble I think that's so awesome too how many deviations you have! In how many years that you've been here? o.O It's just awesome. I wish I could print this off and hang it up on my wall, but I have no ink heh Ziggy is cute and I like how his leg matches up with Odo's I noticed Dimi didn't look real happy lol! I have to say, I really love how Kiley and Rhylan came out.

I'm so very glad...if any of my deviations was to be appreciated, I'd hope it to be this one since it is truly a tribute to all that I love so much here at DA and how everyone has really moved me lol yeah Saul's a sexy devil when he wants to be hehehe uhhh..been here 4 years I think? ..I draw a lot..and share nearly everything but hey..I'm proud to have a crapload of deviations...makes me feel special lol awe!!! lol I'm sorry? ...yeah, I keep debating what I should do with the original .... *littlegoblet had an awesome idea about offering this up to everyone that has people involved...to color their characters in the drawing and then piece it all back together ^^...I thought that'd be cool! lol... lol Ziggy was a doll here...he gave me issues in the other drawing but he worked fine here...lol and yes..I can't get over the funny lil leg trick there hehehe lol well Dimiath is supposed to not look the happiest because...if you notice Lea's right there with him...kinda curling closer to him with a nervous laugh...the two men to the left...well the bearded one that sorta looks like Odo...that's Seifer...and the one he's got his arm around is Pendryg....and Seifer's trying to likely auction off Pendryg to Lea again lol...making some kind of comment about scars she might see if she gets lucky or something....to which Pen's disgruntled about and Lea's all "eh-heh!" and Dimi's kinda like "?!" lol... and yeah I think Rhy looks really girly and all but I'm glad they actually do look like they're dancing thanks for the fav love

Indeed! I really love it, it's just so much fun ^^ I know most of those characters too through watching others or you talking about them. Hey it's cool to share everything! Just means you don't care what people think lol that's a good thing. lol that'd be quite a little project to do Do as you wish! Sounds like a good idea though. LOL yeah I kind of thought maybe someone was hitting on Lea from the looks of it hehe

I think it'd be fun but I've yet to propose it to people..keep forgetting lol yeah...pretty much

Grr, damn it...forgot to say that I liked the two at the top left that were dancing. They actually look like they are dancing and it doesn't look awkwardly done like most "dancing" pics. (Hard to explain, but I hope that makes sense).

DarrkestDrow [2009-03-14 06:03:40 +0000 UTC]

Good Lord, are you insane? How the hell long did this take you and has your hand finished healing from the strain this surly put on it? Hehe.

Dare I ask which is Szordrin? I saw a few (3 possibilities) that I thought could potentially be him, but I didn't know several of the other characters to eliminate them all. I'm leaning heavily toward the poor sod with the "will work for N E thing" sign...but the last of Szordrin's stubborn pride hopes that maybe he's one of the ones with a hussy, I mean...lady at his side. But, it's hard to tell for sure.

I am amazed at the level of detail you were able to achieve with so many characters on each page though. And I still think yer crazy.

Oh, and the "This is my 1000 Deviation and I'm not a stock account" comment was funny, hehe.

PoldalleLovesnare In reply to DarrkestDrow [2009-03-14 06:44:08 +0000 UTC]

lol I don't think there's a question about my sanity, my friend! Yesh, I'm very much nuts but I'm also very much proud to take on such a task and so happy to be able to do something for so many friends. You guys seriously rock my world after all hehehe... uhhhhh...*rubs chin*...basically it took me roughly 1-2 hours per lil "group" of 2-4 people. And there ended up being around 50 people in the image?...I'm guessing a rough estimate of around 30 hrs or so to completion heh.... and yeah...everytime my hand started to go "Wtf?!!?!?!?" I was like "awe...don't break on me I'll be nice" and stopped lol...which usually was about halfway on each of the pages

awe! I'm sorry to say that I didn't get a chance to cram Szordrin in there physically...kept debating which chick he'd be trying to frisk, snap photos of, or oogling! lol! or if he'd be trying to stab someone!...and I ran outta room! @.@ SO instead IF you can try to look at the writing on the first wall there behind the behind reclining against it across from the dancers?...there's a "For a good time Call Tebryn (555)739-9832 [555SexyTeb lol] " and then it's crossed out where it says "Tebryn" and written over it "SZORDRIN AND TEH!!! STABBITY!!!!" as if Szordrin spray painted over Tebryn's lil..."offer" lol .... I wanted sooooo bad to get Szordrin actually drawn in there...you've been one of the key people for me here at DA..but I sadly only ended up getting his name in there [so call it that I owe ya a pic of your lil imp? lol] the poor sod with the will work for n e thing sign is BillTheDrow [if you remember him?] from Misery? lol and yeah the one cuddling against Poldalle--my elfie girl--does have a rather similar hair cut to Szordrin...but that's Shiz....who's, from what I understand, far more girlie and underconfident compared to Szordrin! lol....but seriously, if you'd like a pic of the one and only SzordrinStabbityMcStabberson lol I'd be happy to do so!

lol awe! thank you! I was trying hard not to fall into too "cartoony/chibi" a style with the characters. It was impossible to get super realistic ...especially when so many of them are barely more than a few inches big irl on the paper heh....but I was trying to get as detailed as I could only seemed to be fair for such an "important"/tribute pic, you know?

lol I know I'm crazy...but hell being told so by you seems a compliment

lol why thank you hehhehe...I couldn't resist it hehehe. and I don't think I've ever really come across anyone else that has such a big arse gallery unless they WERE a stock account so lol

oh and about the dancers: thank you VERY much! I knew what you meant and I thank you deeply. It's really hard to try to draw dancing and make it not look stiff and wonky/unnatural. I made the one to the farthest left off the top of my head pose-wise...the other I had a gesture figure scribble in an anatomy book that I used as a reference and just tweaked slightly. But I'm very glad you like them! I was trying so hard to make it look like they were indeed dancing and dancing to compliment each other since they're best friends--and once lovers--and I wanted to sorta tribute the song that I posted up there too namely through them in the whole idea of "let's come on over and dance under the streetlights on the corner" and whatnot

thank you very much for the commentary and the fav hun!!!!!!! and for making DA such a special place for me to be ^^

DarrkestDrow In reply to PoldalleLovesnare [2009-03-21 04:07:48 +0000 UTC]

Well, I certainly don't mind if you (or anyone else for that matter) draws him, hehe. I just don't want you to feel like you need to draw him just because his image wasn't included in a picture that was thanking EVERYONE for being a fan of yours. If that were the case then I assume you'd be very busy for the next year or so drawing pictures for all your other watchers that weren't included... Mmm hmm, think about it missey.
I figure me and Szordrin got more than most in that we got his name in the pic, hehe.

PoldalleLovesnare In reply to DarrkestDrow [2009-03-21 05:14:05 +0000 UTC]

lol!...yes, yes...but it's not really because he didn't get in his face in it...so much as because he belongs to you and you're extra special...you've been a very key person here at DA that's really made a difference for me. And I did enjoy drawing him before...and well he is a cool character and you're an amazing person ^^

it was certainly fun and interesting to cram them all together! ...and I don't know if you can see it too well--Tho's legs are kinda in the way [winged guy with the wine bottle and the lady elf against his lap] but the side of the lil "busstop" bench says "Leah Keeler on display at the art museum" lol ...wanted to put some sort of tribute to ya in there cuz I was specifically trying to stay away from anything but OCs so no Drizzt....and I thought about putting Raven in there but wasn't sure what to do with him so I just made a sign for ya hehehehe.... awe thank you!!!!! I'm so proud lol...I like my gigantic gallery lol me likes to share me artses lol

I tried to work really hard on it. Such a big numbered deviation deserved to have some work to it, no? even though a lot of the characters came out more "cartoony" than "realistic" I thought in the end the fact that it's this BIG ole shot of people made up for it. lol and yeah it was fun coming up with all the different things....from the more serious ones to the screwballs bounding around I'm glad you like it!
