Those are just indicators for when I colour it, there's a name of a colour on every object in the picture, except for the clouds and the man.

Thanks Espen, but I'll redo the legs anyway :bitey:

Glad you like it, Jc! :P

Yogaaa, I don't want to smudge it, I personally like it better when you can see some of the brushstrokes.

Looking good, Divine!

I'm always poking him about spelling :P It's a personal joke of sorts..he thinks Maths is superior, I maintain that English is better. :lol:

Couldn't get my painting done in time :( I spent 4 hours on it last night, before retiring at 1 am.. guess I'll be more organised with the next comp ^_^

Edit: Btw, Global mods kick global arse!! :fpbls:

Here is my final submition. I give up, I will try harder next time :yfok:
Posted Image
Explanation: The spots on my face and the trash heap behind me signify how I am stained with a dirty mind. The sloppy and dirty pizza relates to how unhealthy I am. The fire shows how I am burning down slowly with all this corruption in my life and myself. The crown shows that all these negative things rule my life and most of my life revolves around this.

In my time I still have time (It's 8:26 at night on Nov 29th here)

Explanation: I am on my knees bound and tied signifying that I feel I am merely a toy for other people to use. The color saturation is turned down a fair amount, this shows that I feel dulled, numbed to the world and it's problems. There is darkness ebbing from me, they are my desires, my strength, my everything wisping away from my body. The eyes out side looking at me are my foes. These foes, whether or not they mean to is irrelevent, are destroying me, they are eroding my willpower. It is dark because I do not know where to go or what to do.

Final Submission:

Explanation:
Ok well the symbols on the purple disk thing are the symbols for the planets: Jupiter, Neptune, and Saturn.The snake is nice because I like snakes because of their sterotypical beliefs to be sinister and sneaky, the snake also worked into a nice 'eye' pattern for the 'head'The weapon in the middle, im not sure what it is, I just liked the way it was shaped and it stands as a sort of left cheek for the face.The knives over top of the 'head' are a sort of representation of my life in that its so touchy and i have to be so responsible or else the line breaks and down falls the knives.

In the end, im supremely and overwhelmingly happy with the final piece. It amounted so beautifully too, like it was just a sketch, then i mean main saturated colors and now look! All dark and creepy, Mmmm I like!!! (Man I wish there could be more winners for this particular Activity, its so filled with good pieces!!!)

Any comments? I mean you can still crit, but Im happy with where it is now, so any compliments or comments???

Thanks A Million Everyone and good luck to those who are finishing and have finished, this has been a great experience with a load of great people.

***EDIT*** The various stages of completion can be seen here: Illustration Activity Series B #10 - Colby Buss

Technically it's been December 1st here for 21 minutes, but by board time you've got until it's 1 here. (The board didn't set ahead for Daylight Savings).

I couldn't get mine done in time, but expect to see the painting in a thread somewhere when it gets done :) Even if I didn't get the entry done in time, this comp was great. It really made me think about meanings behind pictures, and it also inspired me to paint again which I haven't done in ages ^_^

Thanks Humble! :D
