Another W.I.P


Buffed up the reds. What do you think? Should I
bring them up more?



This is a do over of the piece I did for the I is always alone for Sal's class last year.
Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks!

  1. Dude this is bad ass, but i think it was "the eye is never alone". Either way i dont really know what to say about it other than I love it. Although the circle in the sky doesnt look like a moon or a sun yet to me; maybe play with the value. Good stuff, and I love the nod to hokusai.

  3. very hokusai-ish.
    love the monochrome/hokusai print like colors..
    You could add some colors to bring out some details a bit more, like the moon and the person in the waves. The colors are nice but i could hardly distinguish the little person from the waves because his red shirt is rather greyish, the same going for the moon too.

  4. nope, the reds are looking good now. They also made the moon feel more like its giving off light. good stuff dude.

  5. although maybe cool the mountain down a little bit now. I'm kinda getting stuck up in the triangle of 3 red things and cant get my eye to wanna go down to the awesome waves you got at the bottom. I could still read the mountain perfectly back when it was grey, but the man and the moon were lost. by punching up the reds on those i can see em easily now but i think you took a step back with punching up the mountain.

  7. I actually have a cooled down version up on my blog I think it makes a huge difference and I got rid of the black line on the mountain.
