I've been working on this couples commission for a while now - you may recall an earlier version . I hated it, and started over.

Let's say, I color this image like

And I frame it digitally with the title "HIGH TIDE", do you think this could make it in the Art Arena?

I like this version much better.

I know about the questionable circumstances, and it is possible that you won't be paid but... I think that now more than ever, the GD needs this picture.

Plus it's looking really good.

Hahahaha, needs?

I'm glad you think it's good. It was just kind of... a punch in the stomach, all that s**t. I don't know if I'll take any more couples commissions after this.

Oh s**t, I think I did get paid for it. I suddenly have much more gold than I did before.

Well, they are supposed to be in the sand.

Unfortunately, her left (our right) foot looks all jacked up.

Okay. biggrin

And our beloved Psytoasty went and did a quickfix on it where he moved the male down closer to the female's feet, just to show me how it would look. Still, getting them to look at each other or anything like that is going to present a real challenge.

We, the GD, need to be reminded of simpler, happier times.

We need our heroes to stand tall and be iconic (lol even though you're the iconoclast).

Yeah, but I'm more like a villain than a superhero. Remember, I'm Emperor Wall-of-Text.

The GD has only anti-heroes and Zahir.

It's sort of like Sin City.

Also, on-topic, I think it'd have a pretty good chance in the Art Arena. Not that I know what gets votes in the AA, but it'd be pretty kickass regardless. Maybe if you got the commissioner to pimp it so all her guild vote it a 10 or something that'd work. ninja

Also, there's something funky with the perspective between the figures there. It looks like if the dude in the background stood up he'd be 12 feet tall or something. I think he either needs shrinking, or moving lower down so he's closer to her feet and such.

i think if you want them to appear to be looking at one another, you might keep in mind their respective hieghts and adjust the line of sight to be looking more up and down accordingly.
