Artist's Comments

One of the drawings I finished on break. Mt. Bachelor, Oregon, around 2:00 in the afternoon. It was...well, if nothing else, no one can deny that Oregon's damn pretty. This was one of the better views you'll see from the ski lodge: a bald spot, literally nothing on it, no skiers, no ski tracks, just the wind blowing the powder off the peak. It's really cool.

(For the record, no, that's not the peak. I didn't want to draw the peak because a) the sun was RIGHT THERE AUUGH! and b) the ski lifts and faceplanters were ruining a good shot. Besides, I loathe drawing snow-covered trees.)

Art-wise, I know I got lazy with the colors. I really need to learn how to not make it look like a fifth grader's job. ^^; I think it came out pretty good, methinks, despite blatant crapiness in the trees. XD Regardless, enjoy, and critique away!

I can't draw backgrounds for the love of me, so seeing someone practicing always makes me jealous. The only perspective I see off is the cabin, which is at a 3/4 angle while everything else is horizontal. Good job though.
:iconkal-amari:
The cabin's actually right, given the picture I'm basing it off, but actually that points out that I messed up something in the rest of the picture if it looks wrong.

Either that or they're both wrong. XD Thanks.

Wow looks alote better than I could have done. I suck with realism/backgrounds.
:iconkal-amari:
Thanks! Give it a shot. Tell you what, here's your assignment: Grab a pencil and paper, look out your window, and sketch what you see. Just the landscape if you want. Go ahead, try it! It doesn't have to be perfect.

When did this go up? It slipped pasted my deviations radar thing.

Yeah the trees could use a little work, but over all it looks wonderful!

The trees...I got lazy, to be honest. XD They were really wirey-looking and covered in patchy snow. I didn't get to them until after we left the lodge, too, so I didn't have a good visual reference like everything else.
