Description You may have seen the beautiful lines for this piece over in Tom's gallery already, and if you haven't you're gay HAHAHAHA. Serious, he's a kickass artist and deserves some love. Anyway, as you can see, I made two versions of this. The first one focuses more on rendering, whereas the weight of the second lies in the color choices and contrast alone, which I was aiming to make as saturated, and as inyourface as possible.

Pencils: Tom (Red Monkey)
Colors: Me (Monk)

Software: Painter IX.

I'm amazed by the top version... the detail in the coloring and the emphasis on the line art is gorgeous.
Then I saw the bottom and was blown away at how the contrast brings out the concept... The body seems in the process of standing, very slowly, while pushing in the opposite direction on the other person... paralelling how a plant grows in both directions at the same time. Brilliant and exquisite work, indeed! I am very impressed!

wow, i had a dream like this actualy, and it inspired two pieces [link] and [link] and [link]

so when i saw this, i was just flabergasted by the vision being realised in a different way especialy with the two perspectives with two coloring schemes, very cool.

im amazed by botht he line work, and coloring on here.

One of the finest drawing ever seen, very refreshing ideas. I guess half of the work it's due to the pencil-work, so I'll have to praise the drawer too.
