- Come with me said she *
" And there she stood, her eyes catching mine and refusing to let go whilst she slowly crept deeper into the sea. She glowed in an almost holy light though her aura felt as if there was a black knot in my gut. Was this a mirage, an illusion? I knew not but the little that I did know spoke to me in such a loud towering voice. "Come closer" It said, and I will oblige without a hesitation more. It would be nightfall soon, a powerful storm on the horizon and I did not know how to swim. Alas I do not care." -Last journal entry (unknown)
HI everyone!! Im Levi! Or also known as NYCTO, im pretty new here so thats why I added the tag of introduce yourself :). Oh... =D SHES FINALLY DONE!! =D I spent all week on this and im here to show you how I did it. I even created a little story narrative for her.... I hope that you all enjoy the image and the process!!
step 1! This time no lines or structure.. I am trying to improve so strait painting is the way to go!
step 2. I struggled to get to this step and though it looked better than the last, it was still quite hideous -_-.
step3. She is starting to look a little better, I am beginning to understand her form and lighting so she will start taking form!
step 4. At this stage I was finally starting to like my work.. Im so used to doing clean lines and being so structured. this was a challenge for me.
step 5. She was really starting to shine through now. I knew at this point I was gonna love the outcome.
step 6. Mostly spent time on the water here... and also here and there.
step 7. This is where I decided about the heavenly light coming from the corner, my composition and my lighting was starting to come together.
step 8. Refining and figuring my lighting out
step 9.. and then its done :). About 14 hours all together.
Here is the GIF for all the process!
Thank you all for taking a look! :) I hope you guys enjoyed this. If you resteem this I super thank you because this was some very hard work... I hope that you like it and please follow me for much for art work and pieces in the future! =D
Dont forget to say HI!! I am always looking for new art friends and people to RESTEEM! -Nycto !
Woff, woff!
Hello @nyctoinc, Nice to meet you!
I'm a guide dog living in KR community. I can see that you want to contribute to KR community and communicate with other Korean Steemians. I really appreciate it and I'd be more than happy to help.
KR tag is used mainly by Koreans, but we give warm welcome to anyone who wish to use it. I'm here to give you some advice so that your post can be viewed by many more Koreans. I'm a guide dog after all and that's what I do!
Tips:
Unfortunately, Google Translate is terrible at translating English into Korean. You may think you wrote in perfect Korean, but what KR Steemians read is gibberish. Sorry, even Koreans can't understand your post written in Google-Translated Korean.
I sincerely hope that you enjoy Steemit without getting downvotes. Because Steemit is a wonderful place. See? Korean Steemians are kind enough to raise a guide dog(that's me) to help you!
Woff, woff! 🐶
Thank you very much for the info!! I just wanted to share my art with the Korean community. You stated that if I didnt want to use google translate that I could just write it in English, which is already what I had done. Does that mean that my post is ok? Just want to share my art with as many people as I can since I put allot of hard work into what I do. I hope that I don't end up on a blacklist!! Im new here and just trying to receive a diverse following! =D -Nycto.
Probably avoid use of that tag in the future to avoid getting flagged as a spammer.
People in Korea might want to see your content, however the content is not written in Korean and isn't about Korea, which are likely the two things that people searching under the KR category would be looking for. Post under art, photoshop, sketch, drawing, succubus, demon... Choose tags that describe, or are relevant to the content you're posting.
Amazing picture, but I just can't get the idea out of my head of this poor bloke seeing this woman in the ocean, whipping out his journal and quickly jotting this down, then chasing her in :P
Kind of reminds me of the Beowulf scence :)
oh man you totally got it!!! Once I was done with the paintng thats exactly what it reminded me of. Its funny how when we start something we have barely an idea of how its going to end up in the end. Im glad you enjoyed my narration! I haven't wrote in a long time so its nice to spread my wings sometimes.
Haha... great minds think alike :p
I can't say I really get involved in the created process regularly, though I will admit it often occurs when I'm writing my articles etc!
You're very talented. I especially like your work with the sunbeams coming through the clouds in the upper left. It looks really realistic.
Great job, keep it up!
