Description A thing that will be used in another thing later on, but which probably merits its own post.

You might possibly think this is a Gmod screenshot. In that case, think again.

So was this photoshop? What brushes did you use?

Liquidsilk In reply to Luftwaffles [2008-09-30 17:09:53 +0000 UTC]

T'was. Solely using the calligraphic brushes on about a 42% opacity, and the shape tool for the opaque backgrounds.

I panicked! I mean, what else can you say? But, by pretending to not notice, I have created a level of jocularity that is lacking in all the dozen other comments that go "wait what".

On the other hand you run the risk of appearing to be the kind of brash person who looks at a piece for five seconds and then posts their thoughts immediately (usually in capital letters), and until the Windows sarcasm filter is mass-produced that risk will just keep growing.

I, too, thought it was a screenshot. xD Until I payed more attention to the wall in the direct foreground, and was all "OH SHI--"

Very nicely done.

Don't worry about that (there are, after all, on girls on the internet) I was just amused by the fact that you put 'they'.

LOL!
I was fooled, believe it or not.
You have the colours down incredibly accurately, I mistook it for a screen shot.
Really nice design, it's all soft and gentle; the exact opposite to the carnage that usually occurs there.

Holy shiiit, for a second there you fooled me too. Then I saw the brush strokes and just went "DDDD:"

And I suck at drawing environments/buildings so I GIVE THIS A THOUSAND EXTRA POINTS.

I don't know if you want any crits, but nyerr. The stairs on the right there look more like a stripe on the wall. I wouldn't think they were stairs if I didn't know better. But I don't know if that's a problem, since the picture as a whole seems to be more on the carefree speed-painty side. Butbut the stairs on the left look so fine. D:

Blurgh blorgh anyhow. Awesome.

Liquidsilk In reply to applesong [2008-09-27 22:29:03 +0000 UTC]

I hate drawing buildings without Photoshop's straight-line-making tools, so I will take your THOUSAND EXTRA POINTS.

Ah yes, the stairs. I admit I started doing them with proper perspective and then though 'you know what? I hate stairs. Sod it, it can just be a wall-stripe'. Maybe I should just remove them. On the other hand you win fifty red stars for knowing there are stairs right there in the game.

A combination of Photoshop and finding bits of Gmod that are easy to paint. And copying Dhabih Eng, of course.
