Hello.
This is an old piece I did around March of last year.
You can see the full resolution image here.
The idea came from one sketch -of a bunch of nonsensical ones- I did on February 24th 2018.
I was watching a few references of neolithic architecture. I aimed for the simplest... as usual.
I wanted to paint an anime-style background. Don't think I succeeded. Was my first attempt though.
I also wanted characters to look like animation cells over a more textured background. That I think was a mild success.
Another thing I tried, was to give a subtle feel of grunge to the image, as if it was a photo taken from a monitor or old tv, or a printing of a 90's magazine.
I was pretty content with the result... But.
Now that I see it after some time, I have to say composition could have been way better. Foreground and middle-ground are cool, but background could have been better handled. I don't like the texture in this part:
Clouds and water... I like them... I really like to paint clouds. Is really fun and relaxing.
And in terms of composition:
Green lines are cool I think, but then flow get lost on the red ones, it could have worked if I had added something to lead the eye... But didn't. Such a shame.
There's such good content here, I promise to catch up with all of you and your posts ;)
