I'm officially on holidays! So I will enter this one just to beat Mandle.

Oh, he can bring it...uhhhhh-huh

Linework done, now on to the coloring!

[Monsieur OUXX]

At the moment I'm sketching. I need to put a lot of thought into it because we intend on reusing that bg for our game, so it's not just a drawing, it has to be functional and it has to match the cutscenes that shall happen in it.

Hello there!

Can i possibly ask - I've taken a WIP for this competition as far as i can with my skill level. Can i post it here to ask for crits or is that not really in the spirit of it all?

Thanks =)

I would say that if you want critics, then you should post it on the critics lounge.
You can always post your WIP here if you wish to show it, and update it later on.

For me it's ok if you want to post the WIP here.
but like Cassiebsg said critics lounge is the best place to if you want critics.

Yesterday evening I noticed that Hexels had a public beta for a new version that introduces animations, new modes and layers! So I decided to give it a try

Very nice theme! Lately I'm dealing with "ruined landscapes" settings, so I jumped right in Two birds with one stone.
This was made in about 2 hours (I don't think I'll refine it, but anyway)

Can't wait to see your other finished works!

Looks like our first adventurer found something at the end of the cave,
and with a beautiful sunset.

Can't wait to see what will get out of there

@Monsieur OUXX - looks great! What program are you using for the workout, please?

That's just good old Paint.Net, used exclusively for drawing lines. If you're asking about the perspective/3D...then I'm afraid all the magic happens inside the head

[...]

Oh that. That, it is not so hard to see what OUXX is doing.^^

light green was setting the perspective as to say horizon
blue gives the round room a go
purple blue shows a entrance on the left followed by a bridge like way to the middle onto the platform and ends right side with a bridge like way again
red marks the screen pic, could also used as gui
red margenta is a help line for the puma like head in position

you were playing around with dimensions and highs and composition^^
well you were metioning your game purposes


let's see, if my colored finished vision in head will come true to be in the end
kind of interesting, how close I will come

[I<3Pindorama!]

I would love to participate.
It is permitted to put characters in the background? Just to give a tense atmosphere...

[aikex222]

Well, if it's a image of you and your discovery i guess it's ok... xD

Amazing!!! The race here is hardness!

Aikex you just give me a new idea! Now my intention is to explore a new approach in the context of the threshold between the rules, my request and your last comment!

Thanks!

[aikex222]

You're doing a great job Monsieur.

Can't wait to see what comes from that new idea Pindorama

[GreenBeams]

It's great to see the various stages of how you're constructing this, Monsieur OUXX! I look forward to the rest of it =D
