Description

"That you'll stay quiet, no matter what you hear or see."

Why is there fire? why are they in a cave? Why are they bloodied and torn? Why is he abandoning her? Where is he going? What's happening? AUUUGHHH!

Well now, I guess you'll have to wait and see if this was just a spur of the moment idea or a scene in "Redeeming Light"

(I am SO proud of this. 10 nearly consecutive hours, about 30 some layers, a lot of patience and perfectionism )

EDIT: Blurred the smoke to make it more realistic and realized (was told) Shen's tail wouldn't be bleeding XDDD

Wowwwww this picture looks so awesome; your ten hours of hard work really paid off. SO much ;w;
It looks almost like a scene out of the movie! (For a split second, I thought it was a screenshot of a scene from KFP)

Well now I'm really intrigued; mystery cliffhangers

Hmmm, the dialogue reminds mw of Narnia. Or a scene from The First Step.

.......Lord Shen.....is CRYING.

But seriously thought, you are getting GOOD at these!! I think my only critique would be to work on your technique as far as the lighting and effects goes, but you've gor a good vision for it.

gembutterfly In reply to FaithFirefly [2011-06-11 23:18:14 +0000 UTC]

Narnia? I can see "The First Step", but I don't remember a scene from Narnia..

I was hoping someone would catch the small tear

Well, critique makes an artist! Any suggestions?

FaithFirefly In reply to gembutterfly [2011-06-11 23:25:09 +0000 UTC]

In The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Aslan tells Susan and Lucy pretty much the same thing before he goes to be killed by the White Witch. There was also something similar in the original Bambi novel.

Well, you might want to blur the smoke a bit. The brush makes the clouds very clear, and you cannot see smoke clouds that clearly at eye level. It just makes it look like an obvious brush.

Bambi had a novle? Oh I remember now!

I'll do that now. I still have the PSD file

Yes. Book by Felix Salten.

Whoo! And I don't think Shen's tail would be bleeding. They're feathers.
