Schön!! Great work! i like it!
Thanks a lot Josiah, it's greatly appreciated!![]()
Thanks Thomas, i'm glad you like it! I'm not totally sure about the shading and direction of light etc. Due to the jugendstil theme, initially i wanted to keep the coloring rather flat, but i never can resist the joy of shading completely![]()
Hey Larb, good to see you around!Many thanks for the idea. The vertical layout gave me some obstacles composition wise, that i haven't thought through beforehand. The moon as a light source in the centre being one of them... As a non formally trained artist, i shortcut the classic sunset paintings and stuff, but i'll give it a try.
My only fear is, that the reflection might interfere with (and distract from) the title...
Thanks a lot Meshon, you're absolutely right about my source of inspiration here, and i'm glad one can even tell actually! XD In my recent journeys through the worlds of early fantasy and scifi literature, i stumbled upon the rather short lived german magazine "Der Orchideengarten - Phantstische Blätter" (1919-1921) with a lot of breathtaking art noveau illustrations. Ever since seeing them, i wanted to try my hands in something like this and bookmarks and Jugendstil fits like "Arsch auf Eimer" (ass on the bucket) in my view.
Gotta admit, that i tweaked the hand drawn letters a bit in gimp after scanning.
Thank you ChickPea, very much appreciated!
Thanks Mouse, glad you like it! Indeed my old avatar pic might fit better with this bookmark i guess![]()
