My Board

Needs some work, but here's an hours worth of work. There are a lot of details that you cannot see as I've resized it to a small resolution. When I'm finished with it, I will post the high resolution. Here is the concept I guess..

Looks very nice /smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Getting more complicated. /smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> ...I can tell I don't pay attention to the titles I put on my images. *looks at the last one and looks at the current one*

you wanna introduce me to the girl holding the fairy? /blum.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' />, lol

............. uh. My sister?

dang...alex didn't reply to that. Oh well lol, anyway, that was a joke. I actually get my female stocks from someone on dA. ([url="http://lisajen-stock.deviantart.com/"]Lisajen-stock[/url]) Actually, the fairy the female is holding is the same exact person lol /smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

What type of background are you going to add? Also, (just a suggestion)...are you going to put a bit of a glow around the fairy?

The piece looks good so far, and I do see a bit of an improvement in the blending which we discussed last night. Did you make the tree yourself or is that part of the stock?

The tree is a stock also. /smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> I came up with something similar without a stock for the tree, but it didn't have as much detail as I wanted as the stock does, so I used that one instead and trashed what I had previously... The tree work is 1.5 hours of work. I've actually added a couple more roots than the original stock had.

edit; Oops, forgot to talk about the fairy. The fairy is going to be very detailed as to what is surrounding her. She will have some glows, some dust, and some more small little details that will really give her the fairy feel. Right now I've just added wings so she represents a fairy. /smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> lol

edit again; Yeah, and I forgot to talk about the background. The background is going to be stock images of woods combined and edited to look like it's all one image...not individual stock images. I'm not too sure how I want the lighting, I can always fix that with hue's, saturation, color balance, and contrast later though.

don't forget to add little sparkly lights in the background so that your piece has that "magical" feeling to it /bigwink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

MAGIC! /biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' /> YAY! /blum.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' /> Will do.

3.5 hours work all together with this next one.

(by the way, I made the female transparent a bit so you could see some of the detail I'm putting into the bottom of the trees)

/ohmy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':o' />

Not very motivated to continue with this peice :\ ...Is anyone really dying to see the finished result? :\

/broomwack-shy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(broom)' />

ROFL. Ouch. /cry.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' />

I was...If you dont finish it you better make something twice as cool...

Yeah, I was kinda checkin' up on the progress myself there Dren. /yes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(nod)' />

;\ ...fine.

Im going to comment and give some C&C on this one but I was going to wait until the finished article before saying anything on it unless I had any ideas or comments useful for the creation process.

lol c&c away if you feel the need /bigwink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> I want this peice to look great in the end..if I ever get around to finishing it.

the last part..lighting and making the fairy the main focus of the peice...it's harder than I thought =\
