This is my submission entry to SimbaGirl’s competition, [link]. Her theme “What does it mean to love” was an excellent theme, very deep and hard to depict. I think my choice of visuals, background composition and character placement adds to its meaning. I think the choice of characters was essential for the overall message.
I tried a new method for creating the rocks and the waterfall, basically everything including the plants. I used a color combination and a smudging tool to get the effect of the rocks and the magical lifelike effect of the steam and waterfall. I also included a particle effect to all of the rocks to improve their lifelikeness.
I sincerely hope SimbaGirl like it! I thoroughly enjoyed working on it. To be quiet honest this piece has stretched me to the next level of my art. “I hope =^_^=” I spent all night last night trying to finish it. Have not done an all night-err in a while.
I so pleased with the result and hope all of you furrys enjoy it as much as I do. Special thanks to WolfHaku, [link] for letting me use her character. I greatly appreciate it and she draws beautifully.
Oh thats beautiful. and the background, and the poses, omigosh thats awesome Byron! I'm so glad that you thought to include me, and I'm very honored. It turned out great and I know you'll have a great shot in the contest. Thanks again for including me, this is just great!
hiya. just found your artwork! BEAUTIFUL! im gonna try to give good and bad so you can become an een better artist! ok pro: the background is STUNNING. i thought you had taken a photo and put the characters on top! it is amazing, and the smudging is a great effect! totally breathtaking con: not really what i would call a CON, just something that could improve th pic. i think that if the chars ( whch poses are great btw) had more shading and a smudged " fur like" effect to make them look moore realistic the picture would be amazing. they are really well drawn, but stand out a bit. i really think you capturd the concept of the contest though, and im sure Simba Girl will love it!good luck! Wow, that was a long comment!

Yeah thats my quote
It is a nicely-done piece. Cool effects and everything! The stage you've created for them seems to be a peaceful one. Not bad at all!
Thanks again for entering!
