Description Indoor background for my portfolio.

These toys have been left in the attic, after the child who had them grew up. Now they wait patiently, hoping for another child that they can create wonderful, happy memories with.

Nice usage of lighting and the dusty textures to give off that desired "antique" feeling.

Great. Reminds me of Oddkins: A Fable for All Ages by Dean Koontz.

Thank you! I've never heard of that before, but I suppose there may be some similarities

Reminds me of Ernest Hemmingway's favourite story he ever wrote, also his shortest:
"Baby shoes for sale, never worn"

Really intriguing.

Aww, yeah, I guess that could be a story that goes with this picture as well. I intended for these toys to just be waiting for a new child though, after the previous one grew up

Yes, these have clearly been loved at some point, and are hoping for some more in future
It's quite cute

So cute! ^^ Again, very nice with the lighting, and I can see a bit of dust there, too.

This could surely be one page in a great children book. What you could add is little more emotions for those toys... Like glint of sadness for the bear.

Manweri In reply to AriVannas [2012-03-06 19:54:12 +0000 UTC]

Thank you I wanted the toys to be happy and positive, always looking at the bright side of things, and ready to make someone happy. But thanks for feedback!
