Description
Good morning guys, long time no see.I'm finally here with an illustration I've been cooking for a long time (definitely too much time in my opinion) but that helped me developing the technique and the style I want to use in my traditional illustrations. Because I know you like it when I get my hands dirty with that sweet, dark acrylic paint.
This illustration is the pilot one for the series of Lalarba, a short story of mine set in the same universe of the main story project, The Garden Of The Snake King. Both Lalarba and the main story have gone under incredible transformations during the past year, and I'm happy to announce that I finally found some peace and I finally feel like both the plots have been succesfully defined.
So, expect other illustrations for Lalarba in the near future! And maybe some plot, so at least you'll be able to know what's going on.
You can see it at last. The garden. Be careful with its host though.

Thank you very much! I could fix up a bit the knight character's face in the future, though. And congratulations for your eagle eye, because they're in a meadow full of bones as you noticed, yay!

haha! I feel better now, if someone can feel like they can go back and do more once they've done this -!!
(I never know when a painting is "Done")
Yeah I like bones

Well, I always repeat this in my head: "Finished, not perfect". In this occasion, the painting surely looks finished, but I think it can be perfected
Glad that made you feel better though!

Yeah I've been hearing that a lot lately " finished, not perfect" but it's HARD.
haha, thanks!

I agree, it's hella hard. I often try to assume one of my pieces is "finished" comparing it to other, more professional illustrations. If the use of color, the shades and the overall finish kinda look similar, then my drawing is as close to finished as it can be.

hmm.. that sounds reasonable actually. Do you have certain sources to compare it to? Or just generally?
