Artist's Comments

[but we're on our way to section 6...]
Man: "Oh god, it's the section five greeter. Quick, just ignore him."
Section 5 Greeter: "Welllcome to sectionnn fiiiive~!"
Other man: "... I want a balloon!"

Here, the section five greeter floats around and offers balloons to those who pass by. He doesn't do it because he has to, he just feels like he should be doing something more constructive with the balloons his species generates.

Light-hearted Adults and children alike can be seen walking around the inner city structures holding the balloons, marking quite clearly that they had stopped by to see the section five greeter.

A for-fun speed painting that originated from an absurd idea with a friend. I spent a little longer on this one, about 4 to 5 hours total work time. It's strange when you work on speed paintings, you never fully know when they're "done." You just kind of have to work yourself to a satisfied level of finish.

I don't think I've ever reached a satisfied level of finish.

There's no problem a few frag grenades can't fix.

I really like this, especially because you created a little story to go along with it.

A rough concoction of procrastination, a love of the arts, nerdulance, heavy metal, and pseudo-science have been keeping Shimbozy running since 1988.

If you shut your brain off, it suddenly makes a whole lot more sense.
The hard part is getting it turned back on, though.
:iconfox-orian:
Well, thing is, this isn't really an effect. This is just how I always draw except MUCH faster and without going back and fixing so many of the errors. It's a simple matter of being sketchy and breaking down a scene into a series of shapes of color, then adding details to those shapes or not.

The sense of light in these speed paintings mostly come from painting with a low opacity brush and making those light blooms around light sources. It's just an effect I enjoy doing that adds a level of polish.

yes i do have a fat inner child.
:iconskedy:
wow :+fav: I love it. The picture and the idea behind it leave me wanting to hear/read/watch and generally lose myself in the story and the world behind it. I really hope we see more of these quirky little features.
