Description
This is loosely based on a drawing I made back in 2002 named "Before I Lose Everything", after a song from the now disbanded Mighty Man and Yuk. But instead of making the same thing, I gave it a bit of a happier tone. Here's the link for the old piece: [link]The smoke bubbles idea was taken from that time back in 2002 when one of my friends thought that she could make everyone in our group quit smoking by giving everyone a bubble maker. (She followed the logic that we'd be too preoccupied to light a cigarette while we were busy making bubbles.) A few moments later, one of us lit a cigarette and blew smoke into some bubbles. They looked so nice, everyone else lit up and no one was able to quit smoking.
Anyway, Happy New Year to everyone!

Hahah. You said it.
Me too. I've been digging up a handful of them from my backup drive's zips and might do some more remakes.
Thank you very much, man! And you're doing well with photography, I see. You've got the eye, so to speak.

Awesome picture! I love the warm tones and the detail in the background. Did you use refs for it, or is this all out of your head? Again, beautifuly done!

robotnicc In reply to atelophobia [2007-01-20 10:47:50 +0000 UTC]
Part stuff from memory and part refereces, like I always do. When I'm stumped on how to pull off a certain part, I stop and search for references.
Thank you very much.

Gorgeous piece! It makes me think of summer. I'd very much like to sit on a roof in the warm night and blow bubbles (I'll pass on the smoking, as pretty as smoke bubbles are).
And anything warm is quite excellent, compared to the cold and snow and ice we're getting here. This is just terrible D:

robotnicc In reply to saintpink [2007-01-20 10:42:46 +0000 UTC]
Yeap. No need to start smoking, now. I hope they invent some device to make smoke bubbles.
Thank you! And hope spring comes sooner. We're having lotsa ice here as well.
