More SGA art…and not chibis this time! *gasp*

[gnine]

Since coming back from Thailand (I'll post on the trip soon, I swear, with pictures even. Really, really I will), I've been working feverishly to get this picture for the SGA art fest, paintedspires, done in time for my posting date of Tuesday. And I succeeded, and well, it's Tuesday, at least by my time, so um…yeah.

Little preview:





Title: Night Reflections
Artist: gnine
Rating: G
Prompt: Whales, stars, Atlantis at night
Medium: original quick pencil sketch, scanned and colored in photoshop
Character(s): Atlantis, Rodney, some whales
Notes 1: Thanks to xparrot and my brother for their usual beta efforts, otherwise known as "hey, come here and tell me what's wrong with this."

Notes 2: I wound up using over 80 layers in photoshop to get the completed image(my computer was NOT happy) and it took about as many hours to do so. :-p The prompt didn't really specify Rodney or anything, but well…whales! How could he not be there? ^_-




As always, C & C very appreciated! ^_^

ETA: now with links to downloads for wallpaper-sized versions:

Oh my God, this is gorgeous! And the work! This is truly beautiful and I love Rodney's contemplative look and the reflections in the water. My mind just boggles at how lovely this is and how much work this must have been. Very well done!

*blushes* Thanks so much! Hehehe, actually, the reflections were some of the easiest part...after everything else was drawn ^_^ But the city itself took FOREVER. So glad it works! ^_^
