Description The Rise and Fall of Our Glorious Empires II. The other one is scrapped.

The dimensions are about 1.375 inches by 12 inches... Nearly didn't fit in my scanner. XD.

Sharpie, colored pencils.

~Cheers, enjoy.

yay! this immediately caught my eye!
I am excited finding out about a deviant who uses plain pencils!! this quite delicate and beautiful!
I always have got the feeling pencils aren't really taken seriously, especially not the colored ones>. This looks good! When I have time I will check the rest of your gallery

Thank you so much, I'm very glad you like this! I feel exactly the same way you do. With all the digital art these days, I feel that traditional art is sometimes under-appreciated. But I'm glad to see that's not the case here.

indeed it isn't, I consider it as a real art to make lively art with pencils, and from what I've seen you are able to do that.

WHOA THAT IS SO COOOL OH MY GOD YOU HAVE TO DO ANOTHER REALLY BIG ONE WITH PAINT OR SOMETHING!!!! X3

What I would suggest.... make the beginning buildings smaller.... and maybe before the buildings appear at all, make it completely flat. You should make the buildings in general... more.... I don't know, smaller? More details? So it's really, really obvious what time period they're from. Also, the sky. I would actually make the skies blend into eachother more. :<

But yeah. Really. Really. Awesome. *thumbs up*

Haha. I don't know if I could find a bigger paper in these dimensions.

So firstly, I think it would be good if the buildings actually... you know, rose and fell [<_<] so if I redo this then I'd make the starting buildings smaller. The details are also a consideration, but I was going for an ambiguous time period. The sky... heh. I need moar colored pencil skills.

But glad you liked it!

No, no, like acrylic paint. And you can make your own canvas. >

Yeah, maybe we could do a collaboration or something over the summer...? That'd be cool, right? :3

Yes, it was very unique.

I have never worked with acrylic paint before, but it's an interesting thought.

We should do a collab, but I've never done one before...

Acrylic is fun. :3 But pretty hard. D:

All you do is do either lines or color, and the other person does the other part. XD
