[EDIT on 14th MAY 2008]

pointed out a couple of errors on this edition of the FORTUNE in COLOUR series. Leon's neck was out of perspective and Laurine's thumb seemed missing with it being hidden behind the beer handle. Now the thumb is visible on the front and Leon's proportions on the neck and jacket have been amended. Cheers for pointing these out Veronica.

What I really like about this edition to the Fortune in Colour series is the warm colours used to portray a laid back atmosphere in the countryside (oh and the lush green grass too! It looks pretty realistic!)

I've used photo manipulation techniques for the backgrounds as usual. Again the photo that was used was taken during my world tour a year ago - I was at Switzerland taking some pretty awesome scenery that will take your breath away.

Nevertheless it's cool to see how many of the main characters from the TGAF Guild are sleeping in their usual routine.


Ash seems annoyed whenever Fei is around (especially when Fei's hair is sticking on his face! XD), Fei seems relaxed and humbly asleep with half his Dragon Suit off (this one's for the girls! Fan-service alert! *SHOT* XXD), Ruby is looking like an angel sleeping in a comfortable position like that and she seems happy about something (could it be the fact that she is next to Ash? I sense a relationship between the two...), Parmir is probably daydreaming (too much love about something is going through his head at the moment... What is he holding in his hands...? O.O), Healix is pretty laid back in that position folding his arms and crossing his legs (he is probably looking up into the skies dreaming of his goal to become one of the greatest inventors of his era), Laurine is too busy thinking about her drinks (root beer makes her drunk for some reason... It's her mentality that's making it so I guess...), Retty is too lazy to sleep upright (what does that tell you about him?) and finally Leon sleeps sitting down (is he always ready for something? Probably he takes no chances even if his team is sleeping away peacefully in the serene fields).

Nevertheless I hope this piece has made you think a little more casually about my characters!
