shallow sleep - scenery studies
Added 2018-07-12 11:35:52 +0000 UTCi wanna do things properly this time and plan ahead, which means i have to visualise the places that are important for the story before i dive right into them ° A°);; i spent hours hunting down photographs that i could use for reference because there's no way in hell i can immediately draw this from imagination. i started with this part of the underworld. the right one was my first sketch, from that i decided on a colour scheme and tried to draw it again a little cleaner to see how it would work out? i have some things i need to tweak, i realised the river shouldn't be as bright as the place you can see through that gate and the place doesn't feel as massive and endless as i would like it to feel but i have a starting point now :)
next up are some places from leo's village, which will be highly inspired by my own hometown in some cases. i have weird memories from there and figured this might be the perfect opportunity to.... go back there in my head? without actually having to set one foot there ever again.
but yea, this is a lengthy process and is taking a lot of time ; ; the last days have been 300% exercises and studies, hopefully i'll feel confident enough again for some actual work \o/

that's correct, i am from germany :> my hometown was TINY, only around 800 people live there, so all my roots know each other very well which was kind of... strange and unpleasant during my teenage years as an outsider XD

2018-07-12 20:50:22 +0000 UTCSo excited to see your hometown in drawing, as far as I know you are German, and Germany is so beautiful, maybe not all the memories from our hometowns are happy or placent but is like to go back to our own roots, so: very impatient to see how this story develops 👀😋
2018-07-12 14:30:53 +0000 UTCWow! It looks so cool! I can't wait to see where you go with this. Just from the artwork that you've put up so far, it looks like it's going to be interesting. Looking forward to it. ❤️
