Description
This one goes to my very friend Bob.We are both fans of the symphonic metal band Nightwish. 'The Islander' is one of my favourite songs, it always rememberes me a bit of a calm day with my friends at the Isar, a river in Bavaria - bringing our instruments with us, making a campfire and jam to the meat which is grilling above it.
The scene shown on this picture is out of the Islander video, credits to Nightwish.
Edit: Uploaded a new version because some things were needed to be changed. E.g.: sparks, fire colour sheme, rain, clouds and a bit more.
Estimated time: ~15hrs Done with CS3, Wacom Inuos 4 Tablet

Oh yes it is. Marco has just the PERFECT voice for that scenario. The whole atmosphere is really touching, I thank God for making Tuomas mix his symphonic metal style with this folk/viking sheme

Yeah! But did you know that it was Marco who wrote The Islander? Tuomas just wrote the lyrics for this song! So we must thank our dear Marco for this sweet lullaby

Of course I know that he wrote (the lyrics of) The Islander
It fits perfectly to his appearance and his style

Even the video is very close to Tim Burton's style... We can clearly see Tuomas' influences

This is really cool!!
I've heard maybe a song or two a long time ago, but someone I know LOVES Nightwish and sings their songs all the time, so that's probably why I didn't bother looking them up XD I think I might now ^^
And congrats on that feature!

Hehe, you should look them up. Nothing against your friend but I bet the singers of Nightwish have a more-convincing-voice
Thanks for the congratulation, I'm very amazed about that feature

Thank you very much ! Yeah, I'm in love with the mood of the video, too. The regisseur has a lot of skills, creating such a touching video for such a strange topic.
