Only For You...

"Give it up, Henderson," a young soldier with sandy brown hair shook his head as his compatriot continued to poke his head into the empty cupboards of the evacuated buildings.

"Come on, just a few more," the other called back. "They can't have taken everything with them. There's bound to be some food or a bottle around here someplace."

"There probably is," Edwards shot back with a deep sigh, "but it's getting dark and we need to get back to the regiment before the sergeant has us swinging KP duty for the rest of our tour."

"Alright, alright," Henderson shrugged reluctantly as he closed yet another empty cabinet. "Just one more house."

Digital Art / Drawings / Portraits

*Note: Not Vector Art. See media description*

A stylized self-portrait. Just recently, I had to quit my job of the last 6 years to make more time for school and building my portfolio. It was the right choice, but still a hard one to make. It's like dropping your safetynet. I kept being reminded of the 1930's Hollywood hopeful taking the train out of the midwest with just a suitcase and her dreams. Well, I've got more than a suitcase, but that was the closest way I could come to expressing the feeling of change. We always talk about the crossroads in our life and I know this is one for me. I just have to do what it takes to make this a good one

Medium: Original sketch drawn over in Photoshop with the pen tool, not vectors since the lines and shapes rasterize. It is similar process, but by devart definitions, anything that rasterizes is not vector art. Details added with brush tool.

Beautiful - you've really got this style down. Best of luck to you ... I'm getting ready to drop my own net, myself ... o_O meep.

That's adorable! I just love the syle you drew and colored it in! She looks so innocent, just sitting there with her luggadge. Like I said before, it's simply adorable.

You did a beautiful job on the whole of it - the lines, the colouring . . . everything.

I love it loads.

~studioboo Nov 8, 2004

:grin: i like your idea, and i can certainly identify with the sentiment. One of my favorite things you've done.

~PZB Nov 8, 2004

This really is an apt discription, but you'll be fine. I've got faith in ya.

~mentalbaka Nov 8, 2004

I love this! She's so cute!

~katwarrior Nov 8, 2004

Aw... this is... dare I use that "C" word? ... cute. Really, I think it is. ^_^ Her pose, her big, hopeful eyes, the hair, the outfit... it all works together nicely. The "sketchy" style on all the background objects is a nice touch, and all the colors are well-chosen. Great job. I hope you find what you're looking for!

!RicciG Nov 8, 2004

I love the era you chose, and her outfit and hair too! along with the irregualurly-shaped boxes and trunks, just nice touches ^^
