I started working from an old oekaki and ended up with this. In a way I suppose this was an exercise in custom brush making. And perhaps it is a bit overkill on the custom brushes. The image definitely is rather "messy" by my standards. But I also like the way it turned out. As always comments and critiques are appreciated.

Finally it let me reply, the page wouldn't load. This is probably the most beautiful picture I've seen in a long time. The forest looks so lush and alive. Amazing stuff. Not quite sure what's going on around the spider-web, though. Anyways, it's still awesome. Do you happen to have a really big one for a 1280x1024 wallpaper? =)

EPigeon: Awww thanks. I'm not sure what is going on around the spiderweb area either, but I kinda like it that way. Actually when I was working on it I did try to make more sense of that area, and didn't like it as well that way. Hmm.. well you have done a bit for my ego  , so here is a wallpaper for you:

| Absolutely amazing.. That forest calls me in to it, and lightning is stunning.. I allways said, if a picture is pulling you inside of it that is the one.. Art should give a chance to add something for the viewer.. this one does.. Really good. |

But the green is too strong in my eyes.

| Yep, picture is nice - woman is a bit "isolated" to right, and as NEFF said, kill that green a bit, it looks like old CGA monitors |
