Description -------------------------Ok first of all I DID NOT PAINT THIS and do not claim otherwise.-----------------

The original art is by Ken Wong

[link]

And was released as concept art for "Alice : Madness Returns".

---------------------------------------------------------------------

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!


Ken Wong likes it and American Mcgee posted it on FB!!!!!!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Thankyou so much everyone for all the comments.

More so those people saying it needs a DD, that would be a dream come true and a first for me .

It has made it to 39th and is on the second page! for the most popular in the last 24 hours.. I think thats the best anything of mine has ever done


I WILL get round to thanking you all individually for favs and replying to comments when I can.

(Have now thanks every fav individually..... and breathe).

Its FINALLY done YAYA.


This thing is some 200 + layers of HELL, and if my computer could hate me right now I think it would, I will NEVER use a 5000 x 5450 pixel photoshop file as my working source file for animating ... hehe.

It has taken upards of two months to find the time and learn a few new things to complete this and I'M SO FREAKING GLAD IT's DONE!!.

There is a train, traction engine, clock, phone and someone gargeling water in there as well as the sea gulls.

The Audio track is "051 - Ch6_Boss_02" From an unofficial Alice : MR soundtrack and is copyright EA/Apicy Horse

Everything was cut up and edited in Photoshop and Animated in After Effects, then pieced together and Published in Flash.

Audio aditing done in Audacity.

Tiny update I re-compilled the animation and screensavers and moved their hosting to Sta.sh.

Damn, the amount of effort you put into this can be seen! So much detail! From the snails and the seagull, to the machinery in the snail and the heat wave, just... EVERYTHING! Great work for this and you deserve all the recognition!

I'm so glad someone mentioned the head waves coming from the openings in his back!.

I spent so long adding the minor details

Thankyou so much.

Now I just have to learn to paint my own art

This overall is beautiful.. So much going on in just one scene. I can't find myself tired of this animation.

oh hey- I see the artist has commented here and seems pleased- I'm glad that your hard work will not be in vain :>

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Null-Entity In reply to copycat01 [2012-11-16 00:00:43 +0000 UTC]

Likewise and to be honest thanks for the heads up.

I had not asked but was working on the basis that as the picture was published as promotional material for the game it is under copyright of EA/Spicy horse and thus falls under the same grounds as fan made wallpapers used cutting up game art etc. (something that practically never runs into problems).

Had it been someones personal work not used in a larger context I.E. someones painting for themselves where the individual does without question own the rights I would and have asked in the past.

Either way I learnt something today

Please tell me you asked permission- it would be a big shame if you had this taken down because you failed to get permission. Please remember that crediting does not allow you to use someone else's work as stated in the DA rules:
- Does "Crediting" let me use whatever I want?: [link]

I already pointed it out- but please be careful. You wouldn't want to spend all that time making something this awesome and then have a copyright issue. Ask permission beforehand and you will not have any issues (not saying you didn't- just more of a PSA) :>
