SGA art: You'll Fall

This piece was previously posted in the Christmas gift exchange at the sga_art_santa. The gift request was pretty broad: slash/mcshep. Given room to play I drew this:




This was interesting to draw. I was a wee bit rushed for time so, yes, the background is a picture of a chasm which I put through a watercolour filter, if I remember correctly. Unfortunately, I don't remember where I got the image from -- somewhere on the web. I tried a lot of different Photoshop filters wanting to blur out and make the boys come to the fore-front. The background then became the lowest layer in the Firework MX's image I was drawing and I tweaked and shaded a little bit.

There isn't a lot of pics to use as reference points for John hanging precipitously over a chasm. In fact I couldn't find a single one, so I used my trusty wooden opposable doll:




This did, however, result in John's head been really, really big in the first draft. Luckily, Firework's comes with a really efficient rubber.

art, sga
