a fish fed up with its leaving conditions and moving to a new neighborhood ?
Kind of needs a background , either a seafood restaurant opening soon or a bunch of alley cats near by ( cats shelter house, maybe )

Steven Rice on Feb 17 '11 at 7:03am

This is really good. Great drawing just need to finish coloring it! and the water drops on the fish shouldnt be red they shuold be white and blue

mismonaut on Feb 17 '11 at 7:32am

The fish is Atlas.

altair4444 on Feb 17 '11 at 8:17am

Thanks guys! The concept is "Atlas as a fish" (or a fish as Atlas). Apparently I need to work on "earth" image more.

Those colors and linework are on only two layers. I'll separate them into different layers and reduce the colors to 8. Also thinking about a glowing bg. Thanks for advices too.

Awesome! Water on the ground is kind of rigid. Other than that, it looks great.

hm087ster on Feb 17 '11 at 8:28am

Should have the whole ocean world in that fish bowl, no?

soloyo on Feb 17 '11 at 8:41am

OH, I got it all wrong then. LOL

maybe because he looks so piss off

altair4444 on Feb 18 '11 at 12:14pm

Thanks again!

@hm087ster: Good idea! Adding some sea creatures sounds nice. But that means more than 8 colors. Simulated process then... hmm

Naolito on Feb 18 '11 at 1:22pm

I love ALL your work, including this.

2 days later

altair4444 on Feb 25 '11 at 6:05am

Update: background is done (?)

Is it done, what do you think?

quick-brown-fox on Feb 25 '11 at 6:08am

This is incredible, I like the U.K on your "map"!

RicoMambo on Feb 25 '11 at 6:18am

Atlas as a fish

Atlantis name of the lost city in the sea

I'm thinking something like

Atlan-fish

altair4444 on Feb 25 '11 at 4:27pm

Thanks Nestor! That's a pretty nice one.

btw: It's pretty much done. Do you guys think it needs any more work?

Resistance on Feb 25 '11 at 4:31pm

this is so great

Resistance on Feb 25 '11 at 4:32pm

one word about the background... the clouds are a little too thick... but i think it works

Manupix on Feb 25 '11 at 7:04pm

I love the background (agree with Resistance), but I don't see the point of the glow.

SF Designs on Feb 25 '11 at 8:58pm

this is an awesome design

reags on Feb 25 '11 at 9:10pm

wow kickass stuff!!

altair4444 on Feb 26 '11 at 2:27am

Thanks a lot!

Refined the clouds and bg.

Also, do you have any suggestions for the title?

rossmat8 on Feb 26 '11 at 2:33am

This is outstanding

Have Bowl Will Travel

nathanwpyle at gmail.com on Feb 26 '11 at 2:38am

yo! $5 on the way. incredible.
I don't have any better title suggestions.

Unrelated: I did see a stand up comedian on TV last night wearing 'War Games' - I believe it was TBS so probably George Lopez's show! But you probably already knew that.

altair4444 on Feb 26 '11 at 2:46am

Thanks!

@nathan: are you serious! I didn't know that, now I'll look everywhere to find it!

nathanwpyle at gmail.com on Feb 26 '11 at 2:52am

Serious! It's a popular shirt. They may post those online somewhere? Anyway, send me an email, - the photo I got wasn't great because it was with my cell phone - but I'll send it to you.

altair4444 on Feb 26 '11 at 1:00pm

RicoMambo on Feb 26 '11 at 1:16pm
