for those weird grey things on the mill :D
It's a little concept art of a town center. I feel I fcked up perspective-wise, but it's so full of crap you don't even notice it :D. I did really make humans oversized though D:. I just wanted to show it off a little seeing as AC seems to be pretty dead T_T
Any thoughts on this? I'd love to try and colour this one in, but school is taking up all my time D: (seriously, FU math & physics)
Spoiler!

if you draw a high flat building behind the mill then the weird grey things can be the shadow of the mill on the high flat building .. but then you'd probably need a bright lightsource projecting this light on the flat building so nvm ._.

maybe you could make it into more mills in the background? like instead of 1 mill make it look like there's a whole row of mills?

Additional stock/sails.

This is of course to promote the tremendous amount of wind power needed by the rocket to the right, disguised as a chimney so to keep the locals at bay of our scheme, for once said rocket has been propelled towards the moon...only then...and only then...will our long awaited dream of seeing that smug DreamWorks logo kid receiving a righteous punch to his stupid face be achieved!

On a totally unrelated note--you should add a kid with a fishing poll sitting on your moon.

On a semi-serious note, I would advice you to quicken your strokes when using a gel pen (which I assume you used for this one) since the lines are completely crooked and varying in width, which really downgrades the image. However, that would give your image a more "drafty"-looking image rather than a final product -- kind of like the conceptual drawing board movie studios create or a quick sketch. If you want a finer, less chaotic, and neat look, then either use something that doesn't pool ink upon slightly prolonged contact or learn to draw a straight line quick enough for your hand not to shake but slow enough to be accurate. Good luck.

Yeah the perspective is off.
Just remember all the basic perspective stuff. Once you feel you've gotten that down try and look up more complex perspective.
Google station points. I myself suck at perspective so... yeah lol.



Oh hey look it's Hostage dropping by like no big deal.
