Artist's Comments

Hi again everyone. = )

Came back from work at the warehouse and had a great day there with my boss and colleagues. ^^ Working there keeps my body fit and my mind afresh which is fantastic for any artist who is doing for recreation or for business - plus you earn quite a lot cash there (roughly 21.00 AUD after tax! XD)

Anyways I like this piece because of a few new added features. I've tried some lighting effects on this occasion and it seem to work pretty well in a skies setting. :) Glare effects were also implemented based on what I've observed on some of the more technical/digital styled artwork from the past (e.g. Airlight and E09ETM) and you can see this on the coloured jewels, Ashworth's red gemstones on the boots, Parmir's memento necklace and garment and the Windkye's red light bulb (the one where Parmir and Ruby are riding on)

Anyway after having a chat with a good friend of mine (Raul aka :iconbungie95: - much thanks for your honesty and care buddy, I really appreciate it *thumbs up*) I felt the need to open up to something that has happened lately. Though I'm not going to state directly what that is or force myself to resolve the issue in a proactive manner because I'm currently not in the best mood to do it but I will however state it here that I will take criticism with a ';pinch of salt'. = )

So go ahead and feel free to let me know what you think of this piece if you have something technical to point out. Thanks guys! *thumbs up*

About the picture:
AHAHAAHA, Fei and Ashworth´s scene is pure winner! Their expression reminds me the times when I made that kind of funny fanart about them^^ Someday I will make one again :) They just love so much each the other that I even don´t know who is driving :rofl:

Retty is the clown of the guild, right?^^U

Great job in that way ;) Keep on! (back to work in the 3rd page :giggle: )

Omg this is so awesome.
Olivia here.
I love how this picture came out and I can see a city at the corner of the picture.
That looks so cool. I think thats a chapel or church at the right top corner of the picture.
Mostly I just woke up and it's 6:46 here in Eastern America so I am half of asleep and half awake. XD I have to go to school.
Anyway, this picture is freakin' awesome and looks lie Fei and Ash are at it again. XD
Good Job Mr. Elson and Keep up the good work. :aww:

Ruby's certainly enjoying herself, ne?

It looks as if whey were reaaalll~~ Though Parmir's pose weirds me out a little, but I guess it's just me.

Dunno if that's called technical, I'm sorry >_>; Oh yeah, and ketchup nosebleed FTW XD (shoved down a toilet)

It seems to me you always take that extra time to draw your characters' poses matching their own unique personality. That truly is awesome- The characters just grow on you after a while ;3
Also, that is such a pretty background, and the way you made the treasures shine really stands out ;D

Awesome job Elson ^___^

I'd guess it's the cold air, and the sudden drop of air pressure while flying so high.

I should probably point out that I happen to be listening to the original english Pokemon opening while looking at this, and it's strangely fitting O_O.
In any case, yet another great example of art skill! Can't wait to see the third piece in the series.

The buildings are upside down! No, wait a sec! The troop is upside down! Hmmm defying the gravity law... all them except one! :D

Nice way of using the buildings. This puts into the pic the sensation of the characters be looping in the sky. The more I see the pic the more I feel it. :)

The light effects on the gems are curious. I like them, of course. I'm saying that are curious because the gemstones seem to have a light inside. Something magical, in fact... :aww:

I guess the buildings are a photo of one of your travels, too! ;)
