Description ZOMG, LARGE FILE!! D: (personally, 2 MB is big for an image file)

Concentration #7: Extinct Cityscape

Originally done with pen and ink on an 8.5 in. x 11 in. sketchbook paper, then graphically enhanced with Photoshop 7.0. And hot damn, my computer graphics teacher's scanner is like a billion times better than my own: her scanner really caught every single detail in the drawing. o.-.O

The original canvas size of this drawing was reeeeaaally huge, so I had to size it down greatly for public view. However, I purposely kept a larger version because I went extremely detailed in this piece, and there are actually hidden words in the piece that help give a backstory. Don't bother trying to look for them, the smaller size pretty much eliminated them from view. Since I left the larger version at my school, it'll be a little while until I can upload it on the net (it'll only be accessible at my main website, however, NOT DeviantART).

Anyways, enjoy the new landscape. xP There will be more throughout the year for my Collegeboard AP Exam!! (Woot! 7 finished! Only a couple more to go!)

Strangely, the inked part and the computer-made part are IMHO a bit 'not fitting together'
The clouds are extremely well made (aint the snow made by "noise" function in photoshop? ) as well as the inked picture.
I dont know, to me its together slightly disharmonic :-/
But besides that its totally A.O.K.

You could change the mode from RGB/8 to Greyscale, breaking it down to roughly 1221.84k (81.456% the original size) without losing any "color information" relevant to this particular piece. However, as far as the actual piece goes, IT ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!

I see one. "Extinction", in the lower right hand corner.

Ragnarokdragon In reply to Panamatt [2007-03-07 01:20:28 +0000 UTC]

OH SHIT. D: You actually found one! But can you find 3 more? x3

Panamatt In reply to Ragnarokdragon [2007-03-07 01:51:30 +0000 UTC]

"War", middle left hand side. Pretty sure about that one.

Something that I can't read up in the right corner; it almost looks like "Meat". XD I'm sure it's another though.

And I don't think I can find that last one. I see possible candidates, but they're unreadable.

Good job with this one. It actually looks really neat when minimized, but there's so much to explore when full sized that it's fun. I can most definitely see the FF influence here (not that I've ever played the games, but I've seen the art enough to see it anyway).

Ragnarokdragon In reply to Panamatt [2007-03-07 02:51:57 +0000 UTC]

Oh my god, how can you see them this small!? (Are you zooming in with a program or something?) D: I can't even see them that small, and I CREATED it!! o_O You get a cookie now. x3
oh, and yeah, "meat" is wrong. XD I think I know what word you're looking at, but I ain't gonna' say.

Heh, thank you for liking this piece of art so much. X3 Yeah, a FF influence is quite obvious here...but what can I say? I love the series so much. >D

Panamatt In reply to Ragnarokdragon [2007-03-07 03:12:16 +0000 UTC]

Well, first of all, I'm using the full view to look, which is pretty darn big so it's not like I'm using a zoom program or anything. And second, I'm focusing on finding the words (cuz you challenged me ), which aren't that hard to find cuz they aren't really that small. Oh, and I figured out what that "Meat" word was. It's actually "Death". Hahahaha! Carrots are good for you!

Panamatt In reply to Ragnarokdragon [2007-03-07 03:32:03 +0000 UTC]

Man, I don't think I can find that last one. It's like that last word in the crossword puzzle that's spelled backward, upsidedown and sideways. That one word that you can never find! Oh well, I'm betting it's so small or hidden among other lines that I'd never find it anyway. Nevertheless, now you can claim victory against my carrot enhanced eyes!
