Full Story: [CST2] In the Taurus Mountains...


 Artist's Notes

I'm really proud of this one :3 This is probably one of the biggest finished pieces I've done in a long time, I might even call it the biggest, since there are two people and a massive background. It was going to be a lot bigger and elaborate, with the Lady made out of flower petals, but that would definitely be overdoing it. My eyes are already crossing from just doing this much XD I already had to save my mind by doing scribble lines rather than pretty finished lines. I felt much happier with it that way.

Before you ask, yes, the Taurus Mountains are a real place in Turkey  and this is the picture that inspired the whole thing. Of course, I didn't draw each individual flower, I would have been here forever if I had. I just went with the whole impressionism thing. It really works :3 plus it's much more fun than trying to pick out every flower.

Really, it's all scribbles until it looks nice XD That's how I roll. It's especially true with the cloudy sky. Just slap down colour with the airbrush and watercolour tools until it looks like a cloudy sky. I'm sure there are better techniques, but that's what works here CX

And with that, I can now move on to some of the more interesting tasks I believe I had Task 5 planned next...

((Also, congratulations nickyflamingo , you got me to draw a boob window))
