Description I haven't uploaded in awhile, and this is partly the reason why!

This is a small part of a pan layout that I am working on for my flash animation class, and I still have a long way to go.

So far, the portraits have taken me 5 hours or so to do.

Sketch done by hand, Photoshop CS3 for the rest.

Honestly this makes me think of a really good story by Edger Alan Poe. I really like it.

I really haven't read more than the Tell-Tale Heart in Elementary school, so it was shocking to read of this story.

Mostly because the painting that should be looked upon at the end of the pan is in fact oval. And all the people in the frames have died.

Beautiful and haunting story, thanks for showing it to me.

Dude you read the Tell-Tale Heart in elemenary? That would have given me nightmares as a kid XD (Nevermind that it's my favorite now...)

And you are very welcome. I love to spread the works of Poe.

This reminds me of.. what was it... the Haunted Mansion ride in Disney World. You know that bit where they show regular portraits, but as the 'elevator' elongates, you see that they're really portraits of how the people died?

Either way, bravo! Can't wait to see more :3

Ha, yes, that's actually one of the things that inspired this pan.

Hopefully, most will be done today and tommorow!

I love it! Especially the tiger: he looks like a snobby tiger.

Great work!

Thanks!

The tiger really scared me before I painted it, I really don't draw animals too well, so how well he turned out was a pleasant surprise!

I'm really enjoying painting in the characters.

I love the tiger, he turned out better than i could have hoped!

Seriously, head in tiger = win. Except it's more like head in tiger = lose. But you know what I mean!

Cutting off the drowning victim (I think) is so teasing us! Now go off and work on it some more, nothing would make me happier than hearing that not only did you complete your assignment, it was so awesome they had to invent a new letter grade to assign you because A wasn't awesome enough.

A IS NOT AWESOME ENOUGH.

Anyway, this piece makes me both go "oh wow!" and giggle inappropriately at the scenarios presented in each picture. So yeah. Keep at it, you can finish this wonderful piece of work! <33

There are like... 30 more scenes coming hahaha, half of them are scenarios from the people in my class, so I'm kinda drawing them but not.

Yeah, she's supposed to be a drowned girl, but i do admit that she looks frozen. Which is also really cool, so i will leave it as is.

Yeah, now i am regretting cutting her off.

SHE WILL MOVE TO ANOTHER FRAME. and become whole.

...you will be waiting forever T_T

its the start of the pan, and i didn't want to start with half a pan...

I might move her over to a different frame and do the rest, she's my favorite.

shimoyo In reply to frostyglitch [2007-12-01 07:25:22 +0000 UTC]

I'm using photoshop for this, actually.

One paintbrush does me for all the painting, the frames used a different, textured brush.

Thanks a bunch, and we should!!! Next semester sometime?

I'll be going home too, where my family will steal me away and lock me up where they can see me as talking to me has become sporadic and not easy to come by.

This semester was a killer. I mean, I am going to school on the weekends, every weekend!
