xD A week ago, I heard that 80's song called "Message in a bottle" (who was singing that again...? The Police...? Or Sting...?).
Anyway, I thought the title was too cool for not using it for a picture, and this instantly appeared in my mind. It doesn't "relate" to the song, just to the words of a "message in a bottle"...

I guess I could have put more work and more effort in this picture because I really liked the idea; but lately I really have no time for drawing at all, so I just tried to make a little *something* at least and have fun, instead of forcing myself to do something boringly long and complicated to draw... and anyway I will have plenty of new ideas when I finally have time for drawing... xD;;
So yes, it could have used some refinement. But I don't have the time. :3

Apart from that, I pretty much like the result, though I guess that many people will find it too simple.
Yes, my skills at drawing hands and feet could definitely use some work.... but who cares, hands and feets are so overrated nowadays. (xD J/k).
At least I tried!

I hope you will enjoy this! I don't think I'll have much stuff to submit in the next few weeks (but who knows), so...

It's a really interesting inspitaion you got for the whole artwork. I like the whole girl in the bottle with the I love you done on the wall of the bottle with blood. The blood seems too sticky though as it looks like strings connected to the girl's fingers

It was The Police, I think the album was Zenyatta Mondatta, but I'd need to go back and check.

Excellent concept, beautifully executed, as always!

Vigipomol [2006-10-26 17:10:08 +0000 UTC]

I think you put enough effort into it, though the white background makes the picture look a bit empty, perhaps making the background a color that would make the bottle and figure stand out, but also not look so bright would help, if you understand what I'm saying.

I absolutely love the dress though, the detail is simply amazing.
