Sorry again, busy day.

I like natural colors, muted and a bit dark.

Hey Blaine,

I'm running out of ideas with just 2 birds and a background....there is just so much you can achieve with just 3 elements.

I would happily start over and try to come up with something new (as a matter of fact I will) but if you have any suggestions for other stuff I could pack in there that would be great.

Here is what I ended up with...



Peace

Your work is great so feel free to run with it. Both birds don't' need to be a part of it and you could just build it around one if you want. I've had an eagle before so maybe just run with a raven. Add whatever you think fits. Mostly have fun with it and get as creative as you want.

Thanks so much!

You might enjoy this.

I have a Karla Morreira of a raven hanging on the wall near me and I love her color palate.

Thanks for the link!!

Her work looks amazing. I'll use her style and colour for my design...

Thanks so much and it's really cool of you to do this!

a reply to: Blaine91555

Okay...so I have been at this for some time now and I really like this challenge!!

I took this design as my basis:



It's gonna take a little longer but I got most of my elements in place...



Wish me luck...!!

Peace

I'm sure I'll be very happy with it.

Hi Blaine91555,

I have been going back and forth with replicating this style.....oh boy!!

It is way easier to work from your own imagination as it is to try and replicate someone else's.

I'm gonna drop this here and I leave it up to you if you want to use it. No harm if you pass it up, I'll just ctrl-c ctrl-v something else for you.

Model was this:



Tried to approach this style with this:

I think I like where you were headed with your own with the heads the best. I like that Raven head. I should have just had you go with that instead of heading you off track. I like the main object like your own avy at the top with just a complimentary background.

I hope I'm not monopolizing your time.

a reply to: operation mindcrime

I cannot wait to see the finished product!!!

a reply to: Blaine91555

No problem!!

It's pretty quiet in here anyway so we got all the time in the world for this one.

I'm glad that we're going back to the first idea. I'll see what I can come up with.

Peace

Where is everyone?
I'd like to send a member here for avatar help....

DTOM

Can someone take my avy and stretch it, or place the background image that seems impossible to replicate without that esoteric knowledge, in the background?

BFFT gave it a shot, and did a great job, need someone to finish it off.

More than happy to send a Starbuck's card to your PO Box...

Ok, after many tears, multiple u2us, an ad-hoc tutorial with arrows, and patience (not on my part), I am good to go.

Many thanks to BFFT and DTOM for starting me off, and mucho mucho thanks to Blend who put in some decent time to get me through this.

Blend, you rock!

Thank you ATS community.

I seem to have ran off operation mindcrime. Raven's are bad that way

Bumping...as the lazy, hazy dazes of summer have put this thread to sleep.
