Moon that rises Fully
by Lostecho @ Tue Jan 10, 2012 9:10 am [Reply]

Moon Light

The moon rises
The clouds part
Stars glitter lighting up the night
The sun was no where to be seen
Silver beams stuck the ground
The creatures of the dark appeared
They hid farther in the shadows

What do you think?
by Kethry @ Mon Jan 09, 2012 5:50 am [Reply]

I drew this for someone on WolfHome.com

For Marwari

This was quick because I was getting tired. I didn't bother doing the whole page.

Long story short start with your grasses in the shape you want them surrounding the water.

Make layer 1 the white background (You can delete it later if you want), layer 2 the sky, layer 3 the grasses through how ever many layers you want of grass or whatever else you need in your bg.

Back to the water layer. I used burn around the edges of the grass and then burned inward on the grass layers and then put the grasses over the top of the burned area.

On the water I used burn again on size 1 to burn little bits and pieces of darker coloration in the water using mostly horizontal strokes and some wavy lines to represent a little bit of surface disturbannce. I used smudge on size 3 horizontally over the entire water back and forth motion.

I then used another water layer and created with spray paint the reflection of the cloud and some highlights which I then also smudged a little until I liked them.

To do this more detailed I would have gone back and put in more shoreline gravel or pebbles or sand, and smudged or colored down into the shoreline and also have some areas where the grass and ground have sloughed off into the water. My sun is again on the right side. Make sure you put reflections... I just hinted at green in the water rather than doing a full detailed reflection You can get a good reflection by taking the layer of grass, copying it, then moving it to the left just a little bit and then taking the blur tool (bottom left, looks like a droplet of water) and blurring the second layer just a tiny bit. It makes it look like a reflection. If you want you can take size 1 smudge and go back and forth horizontally within that layer to reperesent the broken lines a reflection does. I didn't do that either in this quick art.

For the cloud I just did it on the sky layer but usually I do another layer for clouds. I spray painted it in size 7 or 8, then took a second color and did shadows and then changed to size 2 spraypaint in white and did continuous white circles round and round to get the highlights of the cloud. If it were sunset I would have put spray paint in the same colors as the sunset highlighting one side of the clouds. Usually, not always but usually clouds get smaller as they get further away and less bright.

I hope this helps you and anyone else who wants to look at it. Again, this was quick because I was tired. If you have any questions, just ask. Again, this is probably only my second or third water I've done.

That wasn't very kind... but I am an experienced artist and I want critique, that's why it's here.

MOTH. @ Mon Jan 09, 2012 2:51 am

I didn't mean it that way ^^;
okay... ahmm... maybe you could make the grass more detailed with a very thin pencil tool? :3

Howling Wolf
by Ibuki Mioda @ Mon Jan 09, 2012 3:06 am [Reply]

Yep a howling wolf...... :roll: hope you guys like it

there's many ways to do grass, but there's 2 ways I do grass. I use 4 or 5 layers smudged at the top edge of each up and down if It's quick. Or, if I want more detail I put in the same layers but take each layer and make the individual grasses. I pick one color of green and stay on that same color block going up and down for highlights and shadows. Occasionally I will use dodge and burn but rarely on grasses unless I use it on 1 or 2 size.

Grass, as does any other background, gets lighter and a tinge more blue as it goes further away, contrary to what most people do. The darkest more clear coloration with less blue or gray is in the foreground, greyer or bluer as you go further away.

The sky was just thrown together but with sky you do whatever blue you want (or gray if gloomy) and wherever the sun is will be lighter. So, if the sun is behind you for example, the horizon line would be the darkest but if the sun is over on the right, the left side would be darker like mine. mine has lots of clouds in it, overcast in an all over cloudy feeling, and it's not very sunny, but still brigher on the right where the sunshine would be.

Hope this helps anyone who wants to use it.

the city {wip}
by Emily xxx @ Mon Jan 09, 2012 12:46 am [Reply]

this song is by ed sherran ~ it was the inseration for this. the song has the same name as the picse


The city never sleeps,
I hear the people walk by when it's late,
Sirens beat through my window cill,
I can't close my eyes,
Don't control what I'm into.,


This town is alive,
With lights that blind keep me awake,
Put my hood up, unlace and tie,
The street fills my mind,
Don't control what I'm into.,


London calls me a stranger,
A traveller Ohoohohh,
This is now my home, My home,
Oh Woah,
Burning on the back street,
Oh Woah,
Stuck here, sitting in the back seat,
Oh Woah,
And I'm blazing on the street,
What I do isn't upto you,
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two.,


The pavement is my friend,
It'll take me where I need to go,
If I find it trips me up,
And puts me down,
This is not what I'm used to.,


The shop across the road,
It fills my needs and keeps me company,
When I need it,
Voices beat through my walls,
I don't think I'm gonna make it,
Past to-mor-roow.,


London calls me a stranger,
A traveller Ohoohohh,
This is now my home, My home,
Oh Woah,
Burning on the back street,
Oh Woah,
Stuck here, sitting in the back seat,
Oh Woah,
And I'm blazing on the street,
What I do isn't upto you,
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two.,


And my lungs hurt,
And my ears bled,
With the sounds of the city life,
Echoed in my head,
Do I need this, To keep me alive?
The traffic stops and starts but I,
Need to move alone.,


London calls me a stranger,
This is now my home, Home,

[x2]
Oh Woah,
Burning on the back street,
Oh Woah,
Stuck here, sitting in the back seat,
Oh Woah,
And I'm blazing on the street,
What I do isn't upto you,
And if the city never sleeps then that makes two.

A Tree...
by skyofbee @ Sun Jan 08, 2012 9:38 pm [Reply]

Just a tree for now...

Tis a WIP :D We'll see what is to come ;)

The Withered
by Parachutes @ Sun Jan 08, 2012 3:11 am [Reply]

The black figure motionless
On a windless night
Its jagged tipped branches
Pierce at the light

The dwindling remains
Broken and cracked
Its branches once flourished
With the leaves it now lacked

It once nurtured life
Cradling fruits
Blue Jays sang softly
From the tips of its shoots

Now remaining a shadow
A black raven cries
Ringing through the mist
That blackens the skies


Both the drawing and the poetry is mine, please do not steal. Thanks for looking. ^.^

Parachutes @ Sun Jan 08, 2012 3:20 am

Tree :3
by Fizzlebee @ Sat Jan 07, 2012 11:03 am [Reply]

Meh, my first Oekaki with my tablet. I would love some tips on realism if possible. :]

Twisted Illusions @ Sat Jan 07, 2012 11:35 am

Lovely :3 If you want a tip, maybe the tree should be more...ruffed up? If that's even a word. Like, maybe some of the branches should be slightly higher so that it looks more realistic? Just a little tweak, though. And it's brilliant anyway!

Fizzlebee @ Sun Jan 08, 2012 3:14 pm

Thank you. :3 I'll have to try that next time.
