Over im really not happy with the base of the large tree, because they just don't work visually for me. I also think the distance needs a little work as the scale is a little off in the background, but i feel like this is somethinmg that would change with more detail being added in. So i'll be going back to the line sketches and making changes.
These are freaking awesome! I like the base, but if you're unhappy, I cant wait to see when you improve it.
ReplyDeleteFigure 6 is starting to have something going for it - I like the glow coming off the water. I think when you add a darker foreground element, such as the spikey vegetation in fig 2, it will help with the depth issues. Keep going!! :)
ReplyDelete@Lucy - Thanks :D i'm just not happy with the shape xD
ReplyDelete@Jackie - Its meant to be a glowing field of flowers, i just haven't added detail yet. the one closer to the foreground will make it more apparent. :P I was intending to add the foreground elements to the image but i started to be really unhappy with the large tree. :3
Whoops! :) Why not try layering on some textures by dropping in photos on the trunk/root? Also, I do think that once your foreground elements are in place, the large tree may start to look more integrated... as it does in fig 2.
ReplyDeleteHey Lekti these look cool I can see what you mean by the scale seeing as it all seems to look the same size and close to the same colour so maybe if you use a lighter colour to show those branches are the further part of the tree and darken the closer ones?
ReplyDeleteHey Lekti - sorry to hear you've been a bit crook of late, but you've obviously been working very hard in regard to invigorating your conception of these spaces. I think you should consider going back to those line thumbs and using them to create a more expansive composition, because your thumbs hint at a more epic spce, which your cropping denies - use these as acorns from which to grow a bigger glimpse! :)
