Artist's Comments

Finally!

You really need to full view this, theres 50 hours of detail that just doesn't show up on the small version. This is twice as long as iv'e ever spent on a piece, and depending on what they tell me at conceptart.org and what i grade i get, id like to say, for the first time, that this is finished!

Edit: I've been working on this some, and i think its starting to be a bit more attractive. Further updates as i do them...

Bleh, you and your concepting better than be. I have no idea why this feels more like a concept piece than an illustration... maybe lack of story? Like, I guess I expect to see living things in an illustration >.< That may just be me though...

As far as more constructive crit, while the painterly thing is great and you pull it off well, focusing and rendering out more important areas and leaving others vague while still having it all fit, I think the plane that the island thingy rest on needs to give more information. I cannot quite tell what it is supposed to be. I am thinking water, but I am not sure. I mean, that kind of vagueness can be a good thing, but in this piece it just feels wrong. Are those reddish spots out behind other islands? They could use some atmospheric perspective, IMHO, they are not blending as well as they could.

I love the colors. Overall this is already looking great. Perhaps a little more rendering and it will be a fantastic part piece ^.^

Well, those are my thoughts anyway ^.^; Good luck on your finals! (You should totally look at my final stuff for my Conceptual Dev class and rip it to pieces, 'twould be a great help.)

Lol, Lee keeps telling my Conceptual class to steal colors ^.^ This is a really strong concept piece, for sure. Very good look and feel thing going on thar. Water is a toughie... you have a good start with the reflections and stuff, but there is too much white fluff ( IMHO ^.^; ) it looks a little like clouds.

You know, I sorta figured as much, but it seems far too white to me. And maybe too puffy? Fog lays kinda flat-ish. Gaw, water and fog though, pain in the butt ^.^; Er... I hope I am being at all helpful. >.<
