Description This is another basic idea layout test again it's so far just a composite from brushes but it gave me a good idea for the final pic which will be all my own.

The concept is for an old alchemy book that has been handed down and very much added to hence the various had writing brushes in the many languages. There's even a bit or organic chem in there.


Brushes:
Arcane Circles by redheadstock

Arcane Runes by redheadstock

Eltops Elvish set

Handwriting but I don't know whose it is as I can't find were I got it from. If it's yours please let me know and I'll put your name here.

Hmm...chinese/japanese,elven, Mordor..i think there is even a hint of arabic in there, no? Truly an inspired work! It is indeed worthy of applause

Though one thing haunts my mind...what do the diffrent seals/arrays represent?

Thank you. The circles were brushes so I'm not sure...

Lol the worst bit is that most of the handwriting brushes are poems except for the inscription of the one ring hiding out under the great big circle.

Well, whatever the case youve done a great job, keep it up.

I like the idea of using the langauge of mordor, yet doesnt it strike you as...i dont know, somehow..sterile? It looks too much like an elven typewriter..perhaps you could think of a way to make it more fluid? It would suit the alchemical theme rather well. Still just thinking out loud, again its a great work, no matter how you look at it.

Yes, you are right it is a bit...

Oh! Just had an idea, though I’m not sure if I have the file anymore so this may turn into a remake, let me rephrase that, this WILL turn into a remake I have been meaning to for so long maybe it will end the laziness that has plagued me for the past week.

Good to know I'm not the only one that thinks out loud! I was shunned as a bit of a weirdo for my habit at least I know I’m not the only one.

Those who shun us so are people who rarely think, so as i do, ignore them...im licky i can look menacing so i just glare at them at times

I cannot look menacing, however I tend to be very good at scathing cyancism coupled with razor edged sarcasm, it treats me well.
Sorry for taking so long to respond. Will have to reply to the other comments tomorrow, thanks btw.

I do love sarcasm so..strange how the little people take such offense from it at times. Oh and i just now noticed, that should be "lucky"...

I didn't want to say anything. Far worse than the ones that take offense are the ones who wouldn't know sarcasm if you slapped the repeatedly in the face with it.

Did you really do this alone? It looks like a real bookpage! If so: damn good work!

Thanks! It’s mostly brushes at the moment but eventually, probably when I run out of line art to colour in*, I'll try making a new version using all my own stuff. Shouldn't be to long though all I have is hedgehog tea party**, LFG at the beach and Richard V Chuck Norris***.

*God bless Lar Desouza!
**Ra bless Lar Desouza!
***Odin, Atum, Zeus, Jupiter, Jehovah bless Lar Desouza! And all hail the fearsome Chuck Norris!
