Description Who's again late with payments? This guyyyyyy WELL I hope Kumoulogy forgives me, I tried to do some extra detailed shading and light effects to compensate on my slowness, the weekend was much more busy than I thought it'd be. It's weird that when I have no deadlines on me, I have all the time in the world but the moment I start working on something to finish it on tme, I have to be babysitting, running around town helping our my other sister...  

BACK TO THE IMAGE IN HAND. This is Atmos  for Kumo, who is apparently a (grumpy) pirate pony! So to avoid painting another set of mountains, I googled up some seascapes and pirate-y stuff, and end up painting him in his secret pirate cove or opening. I really, REALLY like how the shading came out on him, and I did put a lot of time to it. It feels good to get back into painting more complex stuff, and trying to widen my horizons in scenery painting  

I hope you like it Kumo, and thanks for giving me the opportunity to paint him

Ooh I have to say I think this is one of your best works to date, all the colors work together so nicely and especially the soft gold tones all over Very unique setting and overall just A+.

Oiiii tosi ihana  Ihan täydellinen valaistus, luo kivan dramaattisen tunnelman. Ja näyttää kivalta kun häntä ja harja liehuu tuulen mukana

did you finally sacrifice those children to satan like i suggested or sold them to china in exchange for such skills? because if so, I'm going to have to find some children of my own and trade them away

kalmanen In reply to OpalSkye [2017-06-12 15:31:50 +0000 UTC]

Ahh thanks so much! I had a time where I did a lot of nothing but flatcoloured work, so finally doing a shaded piece that turned out SO WELL is making me really happy too

Aaa I'm so glad you approve !! I really think I managed to push myself too, Atmos markings were a bit of murder but it was worth it to finish this! xD

Kumoulogy In reply to kalmanen [2017-06-12 14:51:38 +0000 UTC]

Hehe. I don't doubt that his markings are a bit frusrating. But I don't look for this spots to be 100% accurate, long as he resembles himself X'D

kalmanen In reply to Kumoulogy [2017-06-12 15:03:30 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I tried to make sure they're around the correct area, and of course doing him in an angle will cover some etc. but I'm always so worried I'll just butcher all the pretty markings
