Here is my thumbnail entry for the Space Colony palette MAP! I originally wasn’t going to enter when I heard there was going to be a thumbnail contest, but I got a few ideas about thumbnails that I really liked. I ended up choosing this one, though. I went back and forth about what characters to use and what layout to choose for a long time until I finally decided on this one. The 2 characters featured here have pretty much my favorite storyline out of the few miniature storylines that contribute to the whole story in the comic I’m making, The King’s Soul. I noticed that a lot of the entries were going with the space theme of the song, so I decided to focus on the other part of the song, broken hope. And BOY, do Josclynn and Dimetra go with that aspect. This sorta kinda has spoilers for The King’s Soul?? I mean, it’s really hard to understand the spoilers unless you know the whole storyline. I DARE YOU TO TRY TO GUESS WHAT THIS MEANS. (I bet no one can.) The comic itself focuses on Shayna, but these 2 are still a BIG part of the story. I’m actually really really proud of this piece. Personally I think it’s one of the best pieces I’ve ever done, but that might just be me. I kinda think it’s a wonder that it only took 2 hours :O Considering the fact that there’s 2 characters, heavy shading, lots of effects, and I drew hands that weren’t total nubs, this should have taken a lot longer than it did. But I’m really proud of it and it only took 2 hours, so yeah. ... sometimes a hand appears on Dimetra’s shoulder and orders her to do things through Morse code when no one’s around.
art - me characters - Dimetra and Josclynn belong to me and are from my comic (I used them in my MAP part to this song, too) music - space colony by mili time taken - about 2 hours
