warfighter67 Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 (edited) Barbieq once again, you manage to amaze me with your style of work, your artistic and creative skills, and your effort in your work. I look forward to your next update! (Maybe I should say which ones I like a lot! ) I really love the sokagirl thing you did there, the textures and everything are just so beautiful! Your TOTW inspired me with an idea which caused me to enter, so it's obviously really good!

Frontcannon Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Yeah, I was really amazed when I saw that one, too. It's way darker than your usual work Quote Night Vision Text Effect Tutorial Gallery reddit.com/r/futurebeats | My Mixcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbieq25 Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 Weylin, thanks! Good to know that I've inspired you. Commented on you entry too. Pretty good old son. Sokagirl, there are some really strong contenders in this one. I'm really happy with AOTW. Didn't know I could do that, so I am very happy with my entry. Chrisco, thanks! YY10, you're so sweet...gave me a smile that did. Frontcannon, I've done some really dark works...I like dark too. Dark & moody I love but mostly the colour & light wins. Sigh. Gotta do that WOTW yet. Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry. April Jones, 2012 Gallery My DA Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warfighter67 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 [offtopic]Heh, you think barbieq's work is dark? Well for her it is, but once I get home and find time to create the scapescape I have in mind, it will be the darkest, moodiest, most desolate looking image most people probably have seen in PDN. Well maybe not the most, but it will get pretty close. .[/offtopic] Can't wait to see your WOTW! I may just ger inspired again >_> Quote My Soundclick!--Well of Souls MMO--Gallery--Facebook--Photobucket--Cool Tile Texture! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goonfella Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 The Sokagirl screen is stunning! Beeeeutiful. The gold frame is brilliant. I really like this one.

barbieq25 Posted April 18, 2010 Author Share Posted April 18, 2010 Weylin, bring it on. I don't set out to do a dark or bright image. It's whatever gets born. That's how I view working. Goonie, thank you. Means a lot to me. Welshy, thanks buddy. I get a lot of help from my Fan friends Your work is inspirational - translates to damn hard trying to get close to your work. Again, thanks. It makes me happy to know that I have improved. Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry.

Luther Keeler Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 (edited) I followed your "My Gallery" link and I can honestly say this is some of the best PDN work I have ever seen, each one must have taken hours. I see a Steampunk-ish/fantasy/Art Deco mixture on a lot of the pictures which I like very much. My favorites are "Fractalise" for it's complex colors and shapes, the "House of Tregilles" (You've inspired me to make something similar ) is probably my favorite of all of them, and Old Charm because I go "ooh shiny".

barbieq25 Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 Luther Keeler, I'm pleased you come for a visit & that you like my work so much. Art Deco is flavour of the month with me but I guess it has been there always. I seem to be drawn to it, evidenced by my choice in jewellry & furniture. Steampunk is a most interesting concept for me & I like it a lot. I love shiny bright things but I'm drawn to dark & moody as well. I noticed the font in you sig - very nice Art Deco. May I ask what it's called & where you got it please? Looking forward to seeing what you've created now that I have inspired you. Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry.
