Just some random experiment...decided to use a couple of elves for it. Mostly done in OpenCanvas, the background was a screenshot I took in Feralas, tweaked, then painted over some. Because I teh_suck at backgrounds.
Blood Elf, Night Elf, and Feralas... all belong to Blizzard. Whee.
I've been meaning to comment on this ever since you uploaded it. I think you did a really great job of 'blending' the background with the figures. Backgrrounds are HARD - I always hate doing them, but I'm always unsatisfied without them. I think the only thing that throws me off is that it doesn't seem to have quite the same 'light' - but like you said, it was an experiment, and I think it was definitely successful.
Yeah, it took a bit. I need to sit down and practice with backgrounds so I can draw them from scratch and keep in mind of the light sources and what not and keep things in mind with the figures. I think I know why the lighting's different. The background was added afterwards, so that could've been it. But thank you a lot! I think the coloring method I played with I'll keep, though I'll probably keep some lineart about... who knows >D
