Description Price sheet.

Commission for for his zombie novel.

I had been doing his stuff without any kind of texture, and this time I decided to try. Let's see what he thinks...
Also I thought I'd add another lightsource: sunlight. I'm not sure it's suitable for the story, or if they're going out in the day, but at any rate I felt they needed a stronger lightsource than just the supermarket's cold white light. There's not a single light worse than that.
If the sunlight's not good, I'll just try to change it^^

Oh and you may have noticed my new signature/watermark! I'll try to remember to include it in everything I do from now on. What do you think?

Hope you digs!

This is very sweet, capturing a simple moment in life...and what I think is so cool about it is that it combines my names :3

That's a neat coincidence. These two are the hero and heroine of one of seven story arcs in a zombie novel a friend of mine are editing currently.

Technically, this isn't really a scene from the section where they're leaving the store, but a few scenes like this happen. There are a bunch of zombies on the outside of the store. They lived inside for 4 days, so they def made sure to clear it out before they hunkered down.

Once again, another wonderful piece! Love the signature btw; it's simple but effective, and it doesn't distract from the rest of the piece. Nice attention to detail here, and I think the lighting is okay. I wonder if any zombies will be coming up next....

At any rate, great job!

Hurray! I'm happy with the signature as well. It was about time I made myself one, and this one actually means something to me, since the symbol's from my novel^^
Myeah, lighting's not the most wonderful thing I've done, yes... But it's a supermarket XD

Haha I still don't have a name!!! I might ask people once it's finished. Thought I would go for the names of the main characters, like Enaranavid, or Leneke, but it's just so obvious lawl.
Hmmm I think it's time I found out where that ZOMBIES EVERYWHERE! thing comes from, it seems to be everywhere. Well?^^

Dracontar In reply to suthnmeh [2010-10-15 22:47:30 +0000 UTC]

Oh, okay. Maybe I'll have some ideas too, but as a word of advice: it should be a title that holds some form of context to the main plot of your book, but not something too too obvious. Perhaps something that has symbolism to a certain important character, or maybe it could reference a moment in the plot that is actually quite small in the whole scheme of things, and yet that same scene holds this big impact throughout.

I;m not sure where all these zombies are coming from... but they're raining down like hail in the winter during a snow-in.

Bfff you're gonna laugh at this, but years ago I even considered calling it New Moon XD I had my reasons but not anymore. Oh Dear...
Yeeeh now I just need to make up my mind for a scene or something I want it to sound simple, easy to remember, to call the attention but not be cheesy or over dramatic. I guess I'll just wait until the perfect thing comes up, heh.

Yuh, Vampires are dying, now ZOMBIES ARE GOING TO CONQUER THE BOOKSTORES!

LOLZ. I never actually read THAT book, but... What a coincidence? But whichever way you go, I'm sure you'll come up with a good title. I mean, when I was thinking up the title for my series "Gracious Lunacy", it was more or less a way to describe Michael.

I certainly hope so.. as long as they don't become romance novels... >.< XD

suthnmeh In reply to Dracontar [2010-10-18 16:40:20 +0000 UTC]

Never read it either, but a close friend did and pretty much summed it up in a few sentences XD Plus I saw the movie.
Teehee... Gracious Lunacy... Excellent.

Ffff well...! How about Corpse Bride!

Dracontar In reply to suthnmeh [2010-10-19 01:48:33 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I see. I saw the movie too... meh, not too fond of it; in retrospect, when I actually look at the plot, it's well directed, but by the end of it, it's pretty much a slap to the face. Just my opinion about it. I don't hate it, but I don't praise it either.

Well, I'm glad the title is appealing to you, although personally I still am not so sure if it is the most stellar title for it, but I digress.

Ah yes, The Corpse Bride. I liked that movie a lot, and it was made by Tim-freaking- Burtin; that guy is a legend when it comes to Gothic-style films.

suthnmeh In reply to Dracontar [2010-10-19 14:32:40 +0000 UTC]

It's hard to hate something you have such a great time making fun of XDDD

The title's good, but of course it depends on what context. It probably wouldn't say much on its own if it were in a bookstore. No one would expect it to be about d9 XD

Oh you said it broddah!!! Tim Burton is... ah, can't really make him justice with one word...

Dracontar In reply to suthnmeh [2010-10-19 23:12:01 +0000 UTC]

Indeed, I agree. Then again, with a lot of other books out there, the title can be quite vague given the context of the book itself. But hey, I'm glad you like it.

Indeed, he is up there with the cinematic legends of our time.

Panochoooooooo Dios mío, me recuerda al Capitan Zanahoria XDDDD y no solo por lo panocho sino por los rasgos faciales, si te fijas en como le dibuja Paul Kidby. Mira el link, podrían ser primos XDDD:
[link]
Y la chica, es mulata o algo así?, es que tiene unos rasgos curiosos, como de ascendencia negra, pero sin serlo del todo.
El dibujo es estupendo my luv, a pesar de que esa luz de supermercado no les favorezca para nada a ninguno de los dos, especialmente a Zanahoria...esto digo a Jordan, si eso, Jordan XDDDDDDDDD

La watermark te ha quedado estupenda! Sencillita pero estilosa, ahora te toca marcar todos los dibujos viejuno para evitar el manguteo

Ah, una cosita del club, nos ha escrito uno de los miembros diciendo que si podriamos hacer un concurso de fotos de la peña disfrazada de Halloween (algo asi como best costume pero a base de submitir fotos en el club) o que por lo menos las pudieran subir al club. Yo creo que lo de hacer otro contest tan cerca del final del que tenemos ahora, pues como que no, porque podría ser que necesitaramos alargar un poco el actual por si hay algun miembro que necesitara mas tiempo Y que estaríamos en plena semana gótica y no habría tiempo para nada. Lo de que suban sus fotos de halloween al club, me parece estupendo, porque va con la tematica y ademas, fomentamos las submisiones.
Tu que opinas^^

Lawl Capitán Zanahoria?? Que demontres?!? XD Lol, el link mola! Bueno, el cliente me dijo más o menos cómo quería al chaval, así que no es culpa mía XD Y podía estar mucho más panocho! Y no, la chica no me ha dicho que sea nada de eso, me dijo que tenía la cara redondita y la nariz pequeñica, y el pelo así. Pero vete tú a saber, sí creo recordar que me dijo que estaba morenita...

Si, pfff y eso que les puse otra fuente de luz de una ventana, o una puerta. No es tan blanquecino como estaba antes. Pero gachaaas^^

falsfjdlasfjk qué pereza más grande, por Dios, no quieroooorrr! Creo que lo puedo hacer para empezar para los originales míos. Si es que tengo 200 devs!!!!! No puidor, no puidorrr!!!

Siiiii, ya vi el mensaje y te lo iba a comentar! La verdad es que sí me parecía una buena idea, y oye, aunque para entonces todavía no hayamos terminado con este, qué nos impide llevar dos concursos al mismo tiempo? Es que decir a la gente que suba está bien, pero si no hay motivación lo mismo no lo hace ni Dios... Hay que quedar en algo y anunciarlo. Y deberíamos subir nosotras tambien tijiji!

Es la malvada luz de supermercado! nada puede acabar con ella! De nada^^

Ya, es un toston, pero es lo mejor para evitar las manos largas de los "quiero-ser-artista-pero-no-puedo" roboarte de los demas >X(

I really like this a lot!
I'm actually kind of glad you took the liberty of adding the sunlight as a light source. It makes it look so much better.
And, they are leaving the Ferrington in the morning, so it works out perfectly.
I noticed two things that bug me a bit, but not enough that I want you to change them. The apron never got changed to "grocery", and the basket clashes with the one Christian was holding in the last one.
Although, some of the baskets at the store I work at (that the Ferrington is based on), have are different. i.e. some say Hy-Vee Grocery. Some just say Hy-Vee. So, it's no big deal.
Overall, very wonderfully done, and I'll send money very soon.
I can't wait to see my "about the author" picture!

suthnmeh In reply to Sevidian [2010-10-14 08:38:33 +0000 UTC]

Yes? Oh good! I was hoping you'd like the sunlight^^ Thank you! Good thing it's in the morning, tho, huh? XD Phew. I added the sunlight also because it seemed meaningful, that they're both walking into the sunlight, out of this deppressing place, together. Kinda gives hope, or that's how I see it. And the sun's not as noticeable as I would've liked, but I had already done the shading in the artificial lighting. Ah well!

Hmm yeah, I wasn't sure what you'd think about the basket being changed. I realized I for one liked this version better, but I can change whichever of the two you want, IF you want. The apron thing's easily changable too. I got confused there, I actually thought it had been the other way around. Guh...

Yayz, moneyz!

Sevidian In reply to suthnmeh [2010-10-14 14:46:30 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, if you could change them, I'd appreciate it. Just make the apron say: 'Ferrington Grocery'.
And the basket: 'Ferrington'.
If they're easy to change that is...
