Artist Comment

first submission on MT3. excited? yes. :D

start it off with my imspirations as usual.
it's offical: my education just got tougher. >_> i'm willing to admit it. i'm not going to lie to you, the good people of MT, by saying that my high school education is so darn well easy, that a random bum off the street could easily pass my courses; wrong. so to make the story short, my sister and i were browsing on some book i had a couple of weeks ago and came across one of my favorite books. a book about greek mythology. i've added this random sentence. yes, i have. i wanna know if people are actually reading this instead of commenting by what they see, feel, and understand from the arist point of view and not just pulling random comments from their butts. so if you read all of this, please make sure to type thank you with a random smilely to prove you have. otherwise, i'd ignore the complaints because everyone needs to know a little bit of the artist's insight on it. okay, done. yes, anyone who knows me personally knows that i'm a mythology nut. (i don't believe in them, i just find the legends interesting) so we were reading how the 'gods' did this and that and gave me an idea. why not make a wall based on it?
so my unique idea came to make my own mythology. :D you guessed it, this one is based on the changes in the sky. I imagined that there are two persons, in this case 'gods', cover the sky but moving their sky-blankets across the sky. :)

vectored the characters from a scan-hunt i was doing. came out pretty good, i'd say. i like the cloth embracing the two, don't you? :D

i wanted to express the darkness of night and the light of day. so what better way to do so then make the two collide. made it mosaic-like because to the 'gods' the mortals and their lives don't really matter to them. it's all, you know, pixelated. it's not really made to be understood but it's there.

troubles? getting the idea to work. :sweat:

and you know what i think is fun? (to me at least :sweat:) to put all you icons on the side where you think the whole day should be based on. i placed my on the night side. looks cooler to me. XD

the usual;
layers: 36 layers
timing: background was made in about about 2 days, on and off, the vectored scans took about a week, on and off. MT matters to me, but studying is what gets me the ticket to use the computer. XD
music listening to: hmm... Breaking Benjamin's Forget It, Daniel Powter's Bad Day, and Michael Buble's Home.

dedications: it's for all who believe that the world isn't composed of only stupid desicions, weird side effects of reality, and learning now to stay up and do the work that is long due, but the chance to make a difference in a person's life... or your own. .... and the complete construction of MT3. great job, sheqel!

and i also want to give my congrats to the UA group on winning the collab round! :D

    *tackle hugs*

    Thanks for congratulating the UA team :D *gives you a sticker*

    Thank you :) *I read gallery descripts y'know *hint hint* *

    OOoh that is an extremely pretty looking wallpaper design you have done :P Only complaint would be moving the characters a bit closer to the centre (namely the one on the left) because it looks like it's going off the page XD (or up a teeny bit ;) ) I think I would have liked them a bit closer to each other ;)

    The skies are beautifully done and so are the clouds... I think the mosaic effect kills it a little and perhaps some grunge might have been nicer but overall the effect is cool :)

    Vectoring is top notch once again :nya: <33 don't stress too hard for school okay? ^_^ Ohhhhh crap I haven't studied :( *runs off*

    Great wallie! -_- (your random smiley, lol) Yes, I'm one of the weirdos who actually read the artist's comments before posting XD

    This is awesome...one of my personal favorites from Adumi Tohru's artbook. I like how you walled it out and the whole gods' concept. I personally like mythology and folktales, but sadly, I've only been limited to Greek and Chinese mainly...it's all rather interesting, dontcha think? It's like peering into the creative minds of our ancestors...sorta XD

    A great wall and a great concept. Way to go, asianspirit! ^-^ I hope to see more of your beautiful walls, and be proud to be a mythology nut XD
