My sig took a bit of wrangling with the char and line limit, but it works.

Oh wow you guys read so much into that, thank you, it's really something when people can make their own stories from something you made <2

Anyways, to elaborate on it. It's a purely digital piece. I've been watching some tutorials on how to use colour and strokes with more confidence and I've tried to emulate that in this one. Mainly by using almost 100% opacity, layering everything and using big swooshy strokes and shapes to give it all a feeling of motion. Also painting negatively (that is, subtracting from shapes rather than adding to them) is rather fun and leads to some interesting stuff.

Also it's Earth or something, the red was supposed to be flowers (like the yellow) but I guess it doesn't read that much. And yeah the guy is sitting on some sort of steam punkish construction and watching the clouds and jet trails.

Was it inspired by The Dark Tower series?

Never read those so I guess not X)

Mainly inspired by my love of clouds tbh, clouds are fucking awesome and I really don't need much reason to want to paint them. And since just clouds wouln't be very interesting I decided to run with the theme of a guy or guys watching them in every piece ^^

How do people draw hands :l
That little shitty hand alone took like a half hour of staring at my hand with one eye closed without moving. The people in my math class must think I'm bizarre.

Oooooooo. I know. ClF3. That should be a fun surprise.

The hand is slightly off, but not that much.

I personally think it's the best part of the image.

The most glaring thing that I noticed about your hand was that the pinky isn't attached to the right edge of the hand. Also, the right edge could use a little outward curve to it, because hands have a little shape like that, and tapering towards the base of the palm distinguishes the wrist better. Otherwise that's fairly solid construction wise.

Anyone of the equivalent to the royal bloodline in a nomadic group would have a sun tattooed on their hand, or a scrotum on their forehead (it's a little-known fact that fraternities are based off of long-forgotten tribes).

So for one of the campaigns on the forum someone is running, I made a character. Upon talking about this character with one of my friends, he drew it.

So make it completely clear, I didn't draw the thing, I only provided the description, but I though it awesome enough to share.

I can draw okay-ish hands now, after spending something like eight hours doing little but sketch my left hand in various poses. I also find drawing skeleton hands helps nail down proportion and joints.

Random doodle. Not finished, so it's rough and there are no shadows, but I'm out of time and don't really feel like improving it. Been ages since I did anything arty at all...

Yeah,  one of my main points of shame was taking part in the actions that ran him off of the forums.
Do you know if he knows that I'm sorry for what I did?
