FFVII:COME.TO.TURTLE.PARADISE

BAH.

just wanted to get this done, coz i dragged on with it since winter vacation.

every time i do backgrounds, i end up eliminating them altogether... but this pic woulda died w/o SOME sort of background. with the background, at least from the thumbnail, it don't look too bad but... i don't recommend full size

i'm really trying to make lots of awesome output.. at least half-decent stuff lately. i mean, every year i only end up submitting like 2 things... so i'm really trying to change that.

backgrounds backgrounds... i've NEVER been good at them. honestly i really have to start somewhere, and yes quite honestly i don't see "turtle paradise" in this pic...

incase you guys don't know, Turtle Paradise is a restaurant in Yuffie's hometown, Wutai.

so i was trying really hard to go for the background painting style of [link]
and [link]

the basic idea anyway... and it's so hard, frustrating and discouraging. I'm really trying and I could really use some help. I have no idea how to use color in city/townscape or... in backgrounds in general!

I mean, other than just drawing, my goal was to just get another pic done. I think my biggest weakness is FINISHING stuff. not just submitting but finishing... and don't get me wrong -- I do try to develop the image reasonably.

so yeah. lol never done yuffie fanart now have i. >>
