Description I'm usually kind of down on a lot of the artwork that I make, but this one turned out pretty cool. it is also an example of me using a lot of different tools to achieve this look, from liquid watercolor paper to computer graphics.

Traditional portion: Gouache paint on watercolor paper

Digital Airbrush: Gimp Paint Studio

Thank you very much.

This is my concept piece of Zack Snyder's remake of Jim Henson's 'The Frog Prince'.

(P.S. Everything I said in that second line is a joke.)

Thank you very much, I do have more of these in my gallery and I am prepping to do several more. Where looking at the super nintendo sprites makes the 16-bit music come to mind, I want these paintings to make an orchestral version of the music come to mind.

Yea, it's good to do as much as you can with traditional materials, but sometimes adding a digital touch will give it a good punch.

Frog was one of my favorites from Chrono Trigger..which is also probably my favorite rpg!

Timbo1834 In reply to MisterDatt [2012-09-30 19:05:29 +0000 UTC]

It's one of my favorite RPGs as well. I don't know if Frog is my favorite. I kind of think that I don't have a favorite. Well I would say that Ayla maybe has my least favorite music theme.

I guess it goes back to the old saying the we are our own worst critics. We reach as high as we can at the time and then we always feel like we could have reached higher.
