From the Depths

Hey guys ^^.

First up, im really happy with this piece, no beans about it ^^ (even more happy than my last piece). This is infact a photomanip with a heavy dose of brushing. all textures used are for the landscapes. the cephalapod/sp? is hand drawn. Based on a sketch for epilogues "It Came from the Sea" contest. If your in for a bit of fun, do join, there are small prizes up for grabs ^^ (or maybe just one).

And at the end of it all just a little over 2 days work. That is the beauty of using photographs, it speeds things along

All photos are my own stock that i have taken from around the bay, from wharariki beach well past farewell spit, to the Rebecca glow worm caves....

One day though i shall grab a gnomon DVD of dylan coles' work and give the photographs the proper treatment! (I have alot of questions for this technique).

Hope you guys like my latest baby!.

take care
