Happy early birthday Tsu! < 3
I vectored allen from this way back when. i knew it'd look best scenic but i was reluctant due to my relative inexperience with that style. but justin got me to give it a go.
then came summer. two months of bits and pieces of work, much frustration (i redrew those two huge arches about seven times, four times in full, from absolute zero), brain-wracking, pain... my september was 100% photoshop-FREE. a few days' more work in october and now i'm submitting now.
i have a more acute appreciation for perspective and painting. and drawing from scratch. so yeah, the reason why this scene might look weird is that it is original. i did get inspired by this for that row of arches and i took the approximate shape of part of this building. still, the weird far away building and all details are imaginary. some things might appear lopsided/off, but more likely than not, it is the illusion caused by the arches. all the painting was done without references.
i've gone through the loving-it phase and the hating-it phase. right now, i think i can be proud of myself for having tried. x__x it was a good learning experience. hopefully, i'll get some good feedback!
also, this fulfills `MyrrhLynn's request in the Moar Plz! Project @ Invalid Litter Department
thank you justin and saku for the advice. :] More at brokenTONE!
