    Wip May/June '19 Lite Challenge: Let the Sky Fall

    Back from the dead!

    Last year has been a rough one for me. I was diagnosed with depression in the spring, I stopped school for a year to take time for myself.
    BUT the good news are all of this is in the past now and GUESS WHAT! I'm getting married in two weeks (ans still I wan't to enter this contest).

    So I present to you my map on the verge of destruction.

    The first thing that came to my ming was Asterix le Gaulois and his irreductible village. I grew up with this character, I know all the lines of the movies and I love him a lot. So here is a tribute to their ultimate fear : that the sky is gonna fall on their head. Sadly for them, the theme of the contest doesn't give me much choice but to make this true once and for all. Can't wait to work more on it!

    Been working on celtic knots, a lot harder than they look! Still, it's a fun experience. Started the outline a bit. Enough for tonight! We went to visit the venue today, it looks great, but I'm exhausted.

    Welcome to the Challenge Mimine, cool concept, can't wait to see it develop!
    Thanks for saving me from the infamy of throwing a party and no one showing up!

    Glad to hear you are feeling better and Congrats on the upcoming wedding!

    I'm not sure if I like the corners on the Celtic knots, but the overall effect is excellent! Also a fan of Asterix and I'm looking forward to seeing more of this piece as it develops!

    I don't like them either, but damn these things are hard to draw!

    So if that storm doesn't do the job, nothing will against the Gauls.

    I love Asterix! (But what a cruel thing you're doing to those Gauls!!! )

    Awesome start. The latest one is a little bit too dark, but with a touch more illumination from that lightning bolt I'm sure that little village will pop right into life!

    Looking forwards to where you take this one!


    (Also, good to hear you're doing better and many congratulations on your engagement. )

    Oooh, I love that storm!

    As someone who grew up on the Asterix comics, I approve of this theme
