Artist's Comments

..to ease my troubled mind.
i left my body lying somewhere
in the sands of time.

simple, but i had to play with the colors a lot to get them the way i wanted. i actually really like the simplicity of this - i had a version where i had text and other things added in, but frankly, they just cluttered up the image and made it seem too busy. with just the jaguar and the boat, the image has plenty of movement to me. this picture.. well, it has a lot of meanings for me. (:

Great blending! You must make a walkthrough/tutorial on how you get your colours so beautiful - that's one thing I always get stuck on.

I - I don't rightly know sir.
Make an assessment.

yummy - only thing, you should add a ripple to the reflection so it looks like the boatsie's.

:+fav:

i know! there is a ripple, but it was faint, and i couldn't work out how to make it like the boat's was. O_O, stupid aur! XDDD

Eh, but it probably had some fantastic info in it! Oh, please please please please please!

Haha, you don't have to. And you can call me Grass of Grassy of moo. Whatever. I just find full names so... formal :P

I honestly don't know either... play with Distort features like Liquefy or Ripple I guess? xD I'm hopeless with reflections

me toooo, XD. i can deal with shadows alright, but reflections are a whole different story. i tried ripple and ocean ripple, and neither was very different.

i agree. what kind of person would actually think that you would see a mirror image of yourself in anything anyway?
