I'll begin with a biiiiiig sigh of relief of exhaustion, brain stress and overthinkage! I've encountered about a gazillion difficulties and gosh has it been hell to pass them.

Can you guess how manu mushrooms there are?

The initial idea was to show a scenery where Alice walks into a shamwowmazing scenery with stained glass butterflies, but then I realized using a daytime light with enhanced light effects is rather wonky, so I attempted something I'd never done before! A NIGHT SCENE 8D.
 
Very nice :O. All from scratch?

I really like the effects you've done. I personally can't do surreal for nuts as I think very realistically :p. There are a few things I can see that don't compliment the depth of the image, but it's supposed to be unrealistic, so it doesn't really matter.

GJ. :D
 
There's something with the cards and castle in the background that's wrong. I love the foreground stuff though. especially the mushrooms.

edit: wait, is the moon a heart? dear lord.:p
 
yep! ALL FROM SCRATCH! took about two sketches before i started coloring. thanks moridin! i kind of wished i coulda made it more of a painting, the lineart kind of destroys it :(

thanks nightshade!

issut cus theres barely any light on them? and yes hahaha the moon is a heart
 
I want moar lighting effects! The butterflies' light play is almost non-existant! (This is my realism engine kicking it :p You can ignore it if you want to).

Though if you can draw this well, you really should take it forward :D. Go do awesome stuff!

Edit: also there are 62 mushrooms :p. I counted upto 57 and then added 5 for good measure.
 
MOAR LIGHTING EFFX?! noway! i got too scared because there were TOO many i thought D:! well, if i were to focus more on the lighting effects i wouldve made everything darker.

Wow... looking back now, the image doesnt seem so dark at all!

hjaha thanks :)

BTW, would it be insane, but would you believe that there were approximately 150 mushrooms in this picture?

Lol :p. I'm guessing most are very very tiny.
 
Heh, that's awesome!
You've got talent. :thup:
 
!! thanks all you guys!!!!!!!!! 8D8D8D.

urm. i made it over a week, so im not sure but it took a damn lot of effort and time T_T.

urm. i posted some of my stuff in a gallery somewhere in the creativity section but idk where it actually is o_o
 
Actually there are a lot of threads in that section, you need to specify how old are the threads you want to view, at the end of the page :p.

As for the artwork, it's really awesome! As you said, I think the lineart spoils the feeling a bit, but it's nice, nonetheless.
 
Lol you're right :p. I only had the last month's threads displayed....I was wondering why there were so few galleries lol :p.

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

  • The Helper The Helper:
    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/

    I will have to get used to this.
