Another Blast from the Past, this time from the Mercadian Masques set of Magic, the last set I worked on before leaving WOTC's employ. Another forest to design! Ye Gods. This was also back in the day when I was allowed to spend a day or two on pencil drawings.
I treated this forest like an ocean; it expanded in waves, forming a solid wall of roots several meters thick at the edges. Imagine coming across the plains and encountering a distinct wall where the forest met the grasslands. That was the intent.
I love the flow of form and contrast, those toots are like that famous wave-picture, somehow maybe you are the reincarnation of hokusai P; happy birthday !
great composition and contrast. especially love this forest style you did there years ago. Why don't you create some more these days? are you very busy? what are you working on recently?
happy birthday !
this done in charcoal pencil or what?
Oh, right, they're too busy treating their customer base like shit.
