*watches as ale shoots out of the dwarfs nose*
man, you do such an awesome job at capturing imaginary moments in time with such vivid detail.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Hehehe,Thank you my friend!I appreciate your words.I love creating such concepts and detail is a primary value to me.Ofcourse its easy to overdo it since I have a passion for details and always Im worried if the result it too "heavy" for the viewers to look at.So,Im glad to see that is something welcomed after all.

I love details, I'll obsess for hours over tiny details I know no one else will notice because I know that once I'm finished it will look that little bit more attractive to the eye 
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Im really glad to hear that other people think exactly as I do
I do believe that details make the difference as while they are used wisely hehe,something that is really hard to maintain often.Some small details also seem to stand as a reason for the viewer to "search" deeper in the picture for that,and while I love offering that chance I become obsessed as well!I think that passion for a definition of details whether exists in someone or not.And definitely works different for each artist.I have seen countless works that while dont contain a high amount of detail,they manage to drag you in with their perfect execution that might come to terms of lightning or colors,I personally love both detailed and more abstract works and I do believe that some artists have the charisma to create strong emotional impact with very simple works.Lol,to be honest,even after 17 years in this job,I havent still figure out which one of those is more effective,but I definitely relate to you in the detail obsession
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
in my opinion, they're both just as effective in their own ways, but I've always preferred realism
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Oh,absolutely my friend,both are effective in their own special ways and thats why I finding my self shifting sometimes from abstract to more realism,heh,I guess mood or some specific concepts carry out the meaning with a particular execution.

Hello honey,Thank you(First of all)
Yes,its actually something like that!We needed to share a picture where all the heroes/races would gather in calm moments to enjoy their time away from battles and such
Im happy you like this and that shows off that atmosphere that you mentioned,it was really our purpose in this one.Oh yea,it took much time really,If I can recall correctly was around 2 weeks of constantly work for several hours each day.
I appreciate your comments and support as always!
