Breaking the vicious cycle
Sep. 29th, 2009 09:38 pmThankyou to everyone who gave suggestions about my picture, especially
rdmasters who suggested a flying machine, though not the sort I ended up drawing. I'd actually been planning on doing one to begin with(*) but was imagining something human sized which wouldn't work with this sort of design. I haven't QUITE finished it, but editing it is giving diminishing returns (and I've been editing it for much of the past 2 days. Goddamn muse). I think I need to take a break for like a month then come back with fresh eyes and fix all the little errors. To let myself do that I have declare it finished (I am weird about unfinished art), so I've uploaded it to Deviantart:

And no, no background image: I experimented and it just ended up looking ambiguous and busy. For those who got exited about the idea of an Atlantis-esque scifi city with zeppelins, I give you Steampunk Atlantis. No explosions, though, sorry :D
And now to start thinking about
