Pixey 4,570 Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 That is so pretty and illuminating. I like how wispy it is and soft and inviting, all at the same time 1 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

Maximilian 1,927 Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 Looks like both a lamp and an ornament, very suitable for a cozy nook! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
welshblue 3,769 Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 It shines. There's something very alluring about the whole image. The fog really adds to the whole atmosphere by adding the grainy softness. Great piece 1 Quote ... Blue 'Til I Die ... My Gallery Link to post Share on other sites
Scooter 241 Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 It very pretty. It has a nice "harmony" . Well Done. But if is a restaurant across the street why can't I read the menu in the window?......Oh, Wait I get it, this is like one of those, alligators- er- Allegories ☺️ Quote Scooter I'm still too young, to be this doggone old paint.net: I can learn it, I can...mostly, I think👨🦳 Link to post Share on other sites

JulioCoolio 137 Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Very nice image! Agree with all of the comments mentioned before. Eerie, yet the lamp light makes it look inviting in a way. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

welshblue 3,769 Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 That's a really cool image. I love the way you've detailed Brian May (G'Mic?) he really stands out against the background and the circles ... great to see you posting art again 😀 1 Quote ... Blue 'Til I Die ...

LionsDragon 934 Posted June 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 @lynxster4, Queen and Brian May are ALWAYS the right answer! @Pixey, that's kind of what inspired this piece! I am going to try to read through his thesis; wish me luck! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LionsDragon 934 Posted June 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 @welshblue thank you! Believe it or not, no G'MIC. I duplicated the picture of him, ran Sharpen and Dragan Effect (twice) on the bottom layer, then ran Photo Glow on the top and set blend mode > Overlay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LionsDragon 934 Posted August 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 So, I was watching a bit of medieval reconstruction when I remembered there was something odd about medieval glass I'd wanted to research. The short version: glass in many parts of northern and western Europe used to be made with wood ash to provide some of the necessary chemistry, so it had an interesting green-gold effect and was called "forest glass." Here's a window with forest glass and leading; I have been considering a medieval house model (from my favorite book) for some time, so now I at least have the windows for it! 5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
welshblue 3,769 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Great job on the frames, it's definitely got an oak look going on. And you've captured the darkness of medieval times brilliantly with the glass colours. Would have just hated to live with all the darkness back then ... looking forward to the house 😀 1 Quote ...

lynxster4 3,043 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Nice @LionsDragon! How did they see through it? 😁 Wood frame is superb.

Pixey 4,570 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 This is really very well done @LionsDragon A very polished image The woodwork frame and the lattice work are perfect and the forest glass is spectacular Can't wait to see the house that goes with it 1 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

Woodsy 853 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 I agree with those above @LionsDragon! The wood framework is very well done! And the glass fits right in. 1 Quote My PDN Gallery Link to post Share on other sites

LionsDragon 934 Posted August 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Thank you, everyone! And @lynxster4, seeing through it wasn't the goal quite as much as letting in a bit of light. Now, to building! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LionsDragon 934 Posted September 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2019 "The room was all dim like a cave, and the red fire burning still and watchful seemed like the eye of the Lord. There was a little red eye in every bit of ware on the dresser too, where it caught the gleam." --Precious Bane chapter 2, "Telling the Bees." Can't see much of the window in this shot, buuut there's more to come. 4 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
