Dreaded Shower

Just messing around with a rainy cellphone photo from the canyon. Started off going for something realistic and decided I wasn't having much fun, so I went more stylized and swirly.

TOPIC: Forsaken Crystal

Just waiting for some activity before posting another topic. Difficult weird topics tend to encourage thinking outside the box, but topics like this with inherent visuals attached to them tend to create more interest, possibly :)

The Flaming Iron

For this topic, I imagined a land in which it is forbidden to bend or forge metal, due to the evil Warlord's fear of an uprising of the common folk.

However, unbeknownst to the Warlord, a lone young peasant, late in the dark of night, hidden in a secret forge deep in the forest or somewhere, has begun creating weapons to overthrow him.

Yadda, yadda . . . there's probably something about a prophecy and the alignment of stars and planets, or the color of the sea in there too. . .

I hope everything's going well guys.  I wanted to spend a little more time on this one and make it special.
