Description I do enjoy painting backgrounds just as much as drawing characters. I've yet to do the 2 together though But for now, i need to keep practicing. The idea.. whatever you imagine.

That's nice. I like the composition and colors. It makes me think of souls making their way in the afterlife.

Looks great but yeah, you should use references. As my instructors always tell us at school; "Use a reference or you will only come up with a new form of ass." Not that this is ass. I mean I obviously faved it.

I find it more fun using just imagination, doesn't take references to do speed paints imo.

True, you can create some pretty good stuff, as you have. It's just nice to get references from life and photos if you need to know textures and color and lighting/shading.

Looks very cool and I can't believe it only took you that long, so quick. (hence the speed-paint title I guessing!)
To me it gives the impression that it'd be a place where you'd hold some sort of magical riturel.

I'm working on it! Cause that's my dream, to run this kinda company.

It would be a paying job, I need to sit down with my right hand man about all of it, but i've got the basic idea of how to start, and where it's goin!
