Description ".... Make the truce now begin
Of this war I banish
I feel the cold reaching you
This way an episode ends
The one of your life
For my spirit to join you.
In this waves of loud noises
And you will wait, Oh my love..."

Penumbra - Testament

Haven't done photo manipulations for a long long time, so wanted to give it a try.

This piece just Rock's for me The Sword the Hot Girl the use of colour!

Ok the fact she might be dead and lying in pool of blood ain't great? Only being silly that last bit, its all great keep up the sweet as work. Nice. Sam

Very romantic.. in the original meaning of the word... it look like a Wagner scene.. may be the death of Brunild...
Great "illustration"!

The gothic bastard sword took my attention as I have a thing for historically accurate swords
I like the idea of turning the grass into dead grass and the petals into leaves... However, the dress doesn't look natural (if you meant it to look so)... It could have some bigger folds in addition to the creases IMO. One caused by the sword blade could work well too.

Apart from the nitpicking I love it, the mood and layout are awesome.

BTW, what font did you use in the text

(Sorry about the language choice, it just feels so much more natural to write in Enlish on the net)

Viika In reply to smuli [2005-09-04 13:33:57 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for the comment and critique I appreciate it
I can't remember the font right now, but I'll try looking for it and then I'll let you know.
When painting the dress I used a picture from my own archives and it looked a lot like that when laying down on the floor in it, but you're right I should fix some parts of it to make it look more natural.

Death is nothing to fear. It is a door opening to another world. But interestesting that you made this piece mostly brown, even the blood is so dark. It is forboding in a way with no color to speak of, to see. Interesting piece for you. I like this.

I don't know somehow Kalevala just pops into mind. The style, the earth-colours, the tradegy. Very nice.

Shriken [2005-08-19 02:05:15 +0000 UTC]

This is a little more dirrectly dark than your usual art, I'm not sure I like such a dirrect art piece. Perhaps that's just because I fear death though.

Viika In reply to Shriken [2005-08-19 08:24:59 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I've had similar comments on my other work that deals pretty directly with death [link]
I fear death, too, and I don't try to romanticize death in any way. I just like depicting it because people see such art very differently. Some fall in love, others are disturbed, and some others don't feel anything.
