Description This was more practice for me than anything. I've just prodded this the past few months to test out random techniques and attempt to get a little better at backgrounds and buildings. I suck at buildings.

The one useful thing I've learned through this would be that burning things are best painted when listening to City by Hollywood Undead.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the Old Republic era, this would be the Sacking of Coruscant.

And Star Wars and Coruscant belong to Lucas, blah, blah, blah...

No prob! I like the foreground elements you placed! Wish I had more of those!

NitWhit In reply to AnJu-PANDA [2010-08-28 17:05:09 +0000 UTC]

Honestly, I added those so I wouldn't have to keep drawing building after building. Yay laziness.

Haha! It's all good. I do that sometimes, but if it helps the composition in any way, I'm all for it! ^^

Wow! You say you might refine this, someday in the future? That would rock. It could use it in a few areas. It's not that bad, though, the things that I see have already been mentioned and are VERY minor. Yeah. Keep up the good work. I'd like to see this revised, but it's cool enough if you don't. Nice work.

I'm considering it depending on how things go and how fickle my Muse decides to be. Right now though, I just need to step away from it a bit in order to recharge. And thanks.

I'd love to see this sharpened and a lot more detail put into it, however the perspective and the storytelling in this piece is great, keep it up.

NitWhit In reply to Cyrisal [2010-08-07 23:43:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks and I really do appreciate the feedback. I contemplated adding more detail but I started to burn out. I do have a version where the blurred rubble is in focus too, I might have to refine that one some after I've had a break from the picture for awhile.

Cyrisal In reply to NitWhit [2010-08-09 14:58:59 +0000 UTC]

No it's not the blurred rubble, that's great as it is, it's as if you were watching through a camera, I ment some of the buildings, I would...nevermind I'll show you if I do a landscape piece, when I eventually have the time to update this website.

Heh. I just picture some scared person peering over that rubble and going "oh shit oh shit oh shit."

NitWhit In reply to MeshlaRuni [2010-08-07 15:33:57 +0000 UTC]

I almost added a person peeking out from that closer section actually before I decided to make it unfocused. I'm tempted to go back and try to add them now.

Hahaha. They should totally have this look of D: on their face, unless you're just going to have the back of their head, which works too.

NitWhit In reply to MeshlaRuni [2010-08-07 23:45:39 +0000 UTC]

It'd likely be the back of their head. I like to be lazy and avoid having to paint expressions when I can.

Thanks, I'll have to take a look at adjusting that.

And your english isn't bad at all. Honestly pointing out which tower when every other thing in a picture seems to be a tower would even be a pain for me. >_<
