Here you go OP [IMG]http://i53.tinypic.com/x1nipi.png[/IMG]
lol i like how he asks for paintings and less than 10% of contributors actually paint
Got bored, started working on this, realizing that it's very tedious, but if you think you like where it's headed (the sand on the left is more like what the final product might be quality wise) then I'll keep working on it. I have a smaller one with some rough outlining that gives a better idea of what I'm trying to start shaping it to.

I've got a painting that I'm almost finished. It's an eerie egyptian still life painting.. very conceptual, spatial.. think you might like it.

It's super dark, though. The lighting is realistic, but I think it's just way too dark for what I would put on an album. You should definitely keep working on that, though. :buddy:
You should PM LazyLion or Truewolf. I forget which username he uses here. He does oil painting.
Okay, I did some quick curves, I think I might darken the sky around the edges for more contrast, but as a whole is it better? [media]http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/3778/minecraft2brighter.jpg[/media]
Are you painting over a screenshot? That looks really accurate. I still think it looks awesome, don't get me wrong. I'm just saying, due to the very nature of it, it's too dark/detailed for what I'm looking for.

If you just start adding random lines and then shade some blocks and triangles in all of a sudden you start to get that effect. If you look closely you can see the perspective lines are pretty messy, ei the pool in the bottom left corner is all willy nilly, etc etc. Anyways, I realize that it probably isn't what you're going for which is good because I really didn't want to finish it haha :d
You're not gonna finish it? :frown:

Thank you :buddy:
Hey man, I sent a message here a while ago-- I'll have my painting done sometime thiss week. When I bring it home, I'll have it photographed and it'll be up here soon enough.
