Lonesome Journey

This is the concept that I have made by my self. this is going to be a long one and I will update this now and then with pics and comments until i have finished this project.

Note: Sorry if you I aren't able to see the drawing because i decided to make the background black.

I have polished it a little bit since the last time I worked on it, which was about 2 years ago. I stopped working on it because back then I did not have a digital drawing pad; I only had a mouse to work with.  

Like the last time I am not sure about the hue of the painting but that does not discourage me to try different ways of coloring and experiment with them.

What i did here is that I am trying a technique which is to firstly make a base color then apply in shadows in another layer so that i can easily take edit the shade without morphing the base color. I have the tendency to scratch-paint or sketch-paint what ever it's called i can't maintain a consistent brushstroke, i don't know if that is good or not.

At this point I have shown my painting with some of my friends, they gave me some constructive critique like "ooooh it sucks" or "why are you even trying, you'll never be as awesome as me!". Nahh just kidding but seriously they gave me a lot of nice feedback that i really needed. Joel fixed the brightness and i learnt something new about photoshop. The castle is at a wrong perspective plus it's size is too big. I might increase the size of the mountains in the background to a make the proportions right.

Man this doesn't seem to en but I think i'll have to stop here and move on for now because right now I feel like i am stuck on the same piece and not getting any progress done but i might revisit this one after a while when i get more experience in painting. This was kind of a big project and i have bitten off more than i could chew so i'll leave it for now and chew it off with some other things and then come back some more some other time
