Description
I know you're stuck inside your headYou're low, you better get used to it
And I know the feeling has to end
We all struggle, it sucks you
in again*throws self off cliff*
Hi, I am exhausted and sleep deprived. I need to have packed, slept, and be ready to head out on an early start to the weekend in about nine hours. Something is seriously wrong with that picture.
Hopefully this picture is a bit more on the correct side of things. This is Kaja, she's one of my friend's characters and the daughter of one of my all time favourite characters. This manip...I don't mind it too much but I don't think it really suits her. I kept trying to go for something more chaotic and unsettling but couldn't do it so I rearranged my whole goal. Instead I tried to make something a bit more bright, not so hopeless yet still on the dreary side of things. The raven symbollizes Kaja's mother, whose memory pretty much haunts her. Even this was difficult, I've never done rain before or painted raindrops or anything of the sort. It may be a really simple manip, but I got caught up in the details. None of which you can really see and what you can see shouldn't have taken me as long as it did. : D Oh, and speaking of things you probably won't notice, I took a chainsaw to the horse. Kaja is a friesian/arabian mix and the horse I used is actually a welsh pony. So I pretty much cut it up and fooled around with the anatomy as much as I dared. Personally I think it looks different but that's just me. xD
Oh, and as long as it's okay with the stock providers I'd like to allow my friend to use a smaller version of this picture here . I'll note or message all of you unless post here saying itβs all okay. (:

You should totally do a tutorial on how to create your own running water + rain. ;D

Ummm. xDD There's nothing really to do it on, just lots of erasing and smudging and scribbling for a white brush at 1px. *shot*
