Description
I started etch a sketching a few days ago and this is what happened. I've always been interested in fantasy-oriented environments, and decided to invent a quasi-aquatic prehistoric kind of scenery. I estimate this took about 3 hours.No references were used, and no sketching or conceptualizing was done beforehand. I started with one thing and kept building upon it until I felt it was complete.
EDIT (7-28-12): I'm so thankful for being awarded a daily deviation for this piece. It was a labor of love, and my favorite thing I've done all summer.
EDIT 2 (4-14-20): I updated the main file with a better quality photo!

It's a pretty sweet album by a pretty sweet band, so it's only natural it would have a pretty sweet cover.

Very well done! I wouldn't believe such things can be achieved with a toy instrument. And you did it in only 3 hours. But now what? You cannot touch it anymore, you have to leave it like that. Frame this one and buy a new Etch A Sketch.

pikajane In reply to aquaTICKworld [2012-07-28 17:12:38 +0000 UTC]
that's the plan! Luckily I am able to preserve etch a sketches, so it won't be so hard to frame it

This is amazing; I can't detect a single flaw. I think the clouds are my favorite part because they are so clean and crisp. And you actually have varied line heaviness and shading!! ON AN ETCHA SKETCH!

Thanks, I too was really happy with how the clouds came out!
