Wicked Garden

Here, I resized it so it didn't look as horribly huge and stretched as it was before. ^_^;<br />
<br />
FINALLY! I haven't updated my gallery in a while! :D So this is something nice, having another opportunity to get praise n' stuff.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
I created this picture while I was on a break from working at my mom's dog kennel. I was listening to STP's "Wicked Garden" (no friggin' duh! XD) on repeat while I drew this. It's a neat song, so I'm happy I bled this piece of artwork out of it. ^_^ Oh, wow...just imagine how many pictures I'll have on here when I bleed "Core" AND "Contraband" dry of their inspiration for my art, and then some. XD<br /><br />
<br /><br />
I like this one because, usually, I can't do details like clothes very well...I'm not that patient of a person. So, I like the fact that I forced myself to sit there and draw those tiny details on Scott's jacket. Ooh, willpower. XD I like his expression and his abs are still as awesome as ever. @_@ *drools* And that might be one of the best flower-holding hands I've ever done. WOO! And the rose turned out pretty well, too, in my opinion. ^_^ Again, I hate adding details like curls and wrinkles in stuff. It frustrates me to no end.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
And now that I've said all the good stuff about this picture in a feeble attempt to make myself feel better....I gotta say, I'm extremely frustrated with how it turned out. Like, I imagined all of these little ivy strands across the brick wall Scott's leaning back against, but I never got around to drawing them because I got so damn impatient. And then, I was envisioning weeds and withering, tall grass or something to make it a wicked garden, but again, I was so incredibly antsy and didn't want to do anything else to it. And speaking of the brick wall....those bricks need to go to hell. I hate backgrounds, I hate detail....I hate flames....ack. ;_;<br /><br />
<br /><br />
Overall Self-Evaluation: This really sucked.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
'Kayzies, I'm going to upload this finished and colored sometime soon, but for now, hang tight and wait for it.<br /><br />

Dude, seriously, my ego is really, REALLY low right now....someone on gaiaonline.com insulted one of my pics, and now I feel like shoot, so I need some uplift from all you guys. Please comment.
