Description Another instance of me killing myself with perspective and such.

Also, liberal application of @eteric halftone dots and CLAMPesque white splashies.

The white splashies have a formal name, actually, as I found out two semesters ago in Alternative Drawing. They are called "Constable Snow," named after an artist named Constable (go figure). This guy's approach at "realism" wasn't to reproduce every last detail photo-realistically, it was to reproduce how things are actually SEEN - in flickers and bits, with random pinpoints of light at the corners of your eyes. The "snow" is an attempt to make something not only look "real," but "alive."

As for the obnoxious dots... I have neither excuses nor apologies.

Geeze. This and panel 6 [link] are pretty impressive. You're skills seem to be taking leaps and bounds, especially in design.

Have you been practicing more frequently or something?

To the point where I'm having nightmares about Void characters, yes. :/

Well, it's paying off.
Keep it up and you'll reach new heights right before being shipped off to the padded room screaming "They're everywhere! WHY CAN'T YOU SEE THEM?!?! AHAHAHA!".

It's a noble sacrifice for art, and since someone has to make it, I volunteer you.



....And how is that meme coming along, Hmm? :>
