Description ...Infinity.

College project. It could be cleaned up a bit, but never mind! Downloading the full thing is recommended.

I put this in the linework gallery because it is coloured in lines, but with ink, not paint. There should be more options!

Anyway, I hope you like it and can follow the story.

(He's walking up the stairs instead of flying because he's a roadrunner (sort of) and they don't fly very much.)

I love the dream-like quality this has. How well you've managed to convey the roadrunner's confusion as he tumbles out of the tree! You've made his climb up the stair look frenetic, yet haven't lost any of the illustration's atmosphere. It's all smart and beautiful and interesting!

I am a birdbrain, because I cannot comprehend. I like this for how much thought I need to put into this simple work. But I don't comprehend it yet. :>

Congratulations on the DD! Have you seen it yet?

I love your painting style here; it's gorgeous. Some of the colors remind me of paintings from medieval times. You've created a beautiful atmosphere.

I've noticed as of a few minutes ago Thanks, I really take your comment on the colours as a compliment. I have a great love of medieval art, though I wasn't deliberately referencing it here.

Sorry if you're thinking this is spam..

I hope i'll be like you one day!
That's because I wanted your opinion about a few off my ugly arts....
Sorry...

It's okay, I'm not angry, but posting your own stuff on other people's work isn't /really/ the done thing. If you want to ask me my opinion on your stuff, you're more than welcome to message me.

kiki-doodle [2011-03-23 00:34:03 +0000 UTC]

I really like the style of this, and it has a nice sort of grungy look to it!

I will say, though, I digress that they don't fly much. I grew up in an area rife with roadrunners, and I saw them ALL the time walking on our fence or our neighbor's roof with lizards in their mouths. Soon as they saw you, though, they'd fly right back down into the canyon :3

popeyethecat In reply to kiki-doodle [2011-03-23 16:27:56 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the comment! Being in the UK, I haven't ever seen roadrunners in their natural habitat, and I suppose all the videos I saw involved them walking...oh well!

kiki-doodle In reply to popeyethecat [2011-03-23 21:12:21 +0000 UTC]

it is true that they mostly run! It may be an environment thing, too. If I lived in a flatter area, they wouldn't have much of a need to fly. Most people are surprised by this, so don't feel bad x3

Still, nice comic!

Everything done with ink!? O.O
I'm even amazed there are that many different colors of ink.
I really like the bird, he/she looks cutely innocent and it's really relaxing to look at.
