valorandvellum on Dec 28 '06 Gorgeous details! I think if Edward Gorey and Tim Burton had a child, it would be this. $5.
|
 |

Wow. Gorgeous. I really hope you can get this resubbed under the contest, because I love this. I really like it on natural, but I think the grey works better for the stormy sky. Either way, five and buy!

too clean. that contest (which this isn't in) seems to call for a more hand drawn feel.
|
|
dacat on Dec 29 '06 It'll be corrected soon into the contest...I was told :-)
|
|
nice design, though it would be better as a drawing or painting or etchasketch...etchasketch... now that would be impressive.

I wish I knew something about the Decembrists, but this design is fantastic representation of the Tempest, at any rate. $5

I love this. I'm a Shakespeare freak, so this made my night.
|

It's very lovely. Just curious.....how long did this take?

dacat on Dec 30 '06 Kiki, I'm not even sure, but many many hours over 3-4 days sounds about right! Thanks for the comments everyone!
|
|

|
Pretty close to exactly what I envisioned for this contest. I'm not into the decemberists, but I give this a 5 because it fits well.

igo2cairo on Jan 15 '08 Ah, I always wondered where your avatar came from! This is beautiful - what an amazing, intricate style you have. I'm a fan of the Decemberists and "The Tempest" - it's really disappointing this was never printed.
|
|
dacat on Jan 15 '08 Thanks Terry, it's been like a whole year since anyone commented on this one, ha! You should sub your "gentlesnowman", I think that'll do really well!
|
|
this didn't get printed? Really?
It's such a nice flow of colors, and a good hierchy of detail...you can tell some thought was put in it. As a matter of fact, I notice that a bit in a good deal of your designs.... is there any way to add someone to a 'favorites' listing of some sort? I want to keep an eye out for your designs. |

About my design
DARK GRAY (Large) and
NATURAL (Large)
Placement Options:
Wrapped-Lower! and
Grey-Chest
Based on the idea that the Decemberist song "The Island" is a retelling of "The Tempest". This design is depicting a scene where the spirit Ariel
stirs up a storm to strand the sailors onto the Island. Miranda watches in sadness while the man-beast Caliban (Sycorax's child) waits to abduct
her. I didn't depict Prospero, Miranda's father, who should probably be in this, since I thought Caliban was more interesting to show. Oh, and there's a crane in there, just because it's such a theme in the album.
