Hi OP beautiful work. What software/accessories do you use?

Rosco777 OP t1_j6e4pvt wrote

Hi there! Thank you

I use Photoshop and Lightroom. And as accessories I guess my mouse counts? I draw only with it currently as I keep deciding if I should get a screen graphic tablet or not

goats in the clouds :) But yo, how does this piece speak to me on many levels .

Masterpiece. Curious, Does the blue/orange have anything to do with twin flame?

Rosco777 OP t1_j67kipd wrote

Haha looking at the clouds now I see a pony I'm very happy this piece reached you like that! I wasn't familiar with the concept of the twin flame before but I can see how it can be interpreted like that after reading about it

Stunning concept and beautiful execution. I love it so much that I just spent the past hour looking through your portfolio. The celestial themes are especially great.

Rosco777 OP t1_j688egk wrote

Thank you for the bottom of my heart for that!! I have been passionate about the cosmos since I was a kid, and being able to use that as inspiration for my art has been an absolute bliss

Similar_Blueberry717 t1_j68htjk wrote

Keep it up! There’s a clear progression of skills and creativity in your portfolio, even from a few years ago. Art means a lot of different things to different people, but in every case, the artist is exposing a piece of themselves that requires some level of vulnerability. Thanks for sharing!

Rosco777 OP t1_j68jbmx wrote

It means a lot to me to read that And yes, some times so much vulnerability and different feelings go when working on a piece, that by the moment its done, I feel somehow empty. Like what now? But fortunately I find an art idea again to attach to, and that feeling fades

If I could make art, I would want to make creations like this. Stunning, you are incredible! I don’t comment often if ever but your work here compelled me to do so. Thank you for this lovely sight!

It's never to late to start and to create something just of pure wish and creative drive. You never know where it might lead you

I thank you for such beautiful words!!

Do you take your own source photos?

Rosco777 OP t1_j68mygt wrote

For the main subjects, always. In this particular artwork I used a photo of me taken with the help of a friend I sometimes use sky photos I take too, or for separate objects

I get strong "prince of the morning" vibes from this. I could see this in an illustrated version of Paradise Lost.

That's a great compliment. I love Dante's work and Paradise Lost

backflipisillegal t1_j68r5sx wrote

you have a backstory behind this? amazing and clever use of resources!!!!

2

Rosco777 OP t1_j68wz8g wrote

Not necessarily. But its part of a series of similar artworks. I did one where the cloth included only the night sky and one only with a sunrise So I wanted to include both in one artwork too And thank you!!

Breathtakingly beautiful.

This is my own personal preference but whenever I see “higher beings” like gods and celestial deities I always liken them to be perfect figures. So things like blemishes, moles, and baby hairs always make me a bit sad considering the former are mutations in the skin (which is a really human characteristic of imperfection). I remember playing Mortal Kombat and the antagonist goddess, Kronica, has freckles. So very strange for me. Battle scars I can understand but freckles is just too “human”.

2

UsedUpSunshine t1_j6927pr wrote

I can under that. I always think they opted to have freckles or something. Take an even more human appearance. I don’t mind it though.

2

Rosco777 OP t1_j694x21 wrote

Definitely sharing that opinion Having skin imperfection breaks that illusion of godly perfection they are supposed to be In the case here, I wasn't sure if it would be a demi human, a celestial being, or a normal human enwrapped in a dreamy scenario. So I decided not to clear the skin this time

EmployerUpstairs8044 t1_j692j6t wrote

Wrapped in fire, water, and light.

That blue fabric is killer. Your hair is dreamy... wow.

Edit...as a stargrazer, I'm lost in that blue. Man, that's so good.

2

Rosco777 OP t1_j694nwb wrote

A million thank you!! It truly shows I preferred to work on the blue fabric more, adding more blueish or purple shades always looked good there

partyqwerty t1_j696j41 wrote

Renaissance art vibes...

Love it! Great execution, they colours, though strong seem muted enough to bring vision to the center. Did I make sense lol

2

Rosco777 OP t1_j6e56sp wrote

Thank you so much!!

Yep I get haha. That was intentional as at first I wanted to make the whole background black and white to bring the entire focus on the main subject. But it was too much so I only dimmed the colours a bit in the sky and around the edges of the cloth too. It's a common technique to swift attention in a desired place in the artwork

shadowariel t1_j69cwva wrote

Love this!! It makes for a fantastic reference as well! Was this green screen or worked on in Photoshop or a different editing program? Not familiar with the behind the scenes work on photography stuff lol

2

Rosco777 OP t1_j6e5s3l wrote

Thank you!! The original picture of me I used as a base for this was taken by a friend, outside in an overcast sky. As being a diffuse light on the body with no strong direction, I can edit the lighting more freely in Photoshop than in other light scenarios like a full blown sun

Love the detail of the glow of the orange and blue from the cloak on the back and arm! So cool

2

Rosco777 OP t1_j6a837h wrote

Thank you so much!! In the recent 4 months I learned more about colours and how they reflect on different sources and it's been great applying that to my works. In essence, pretty much everything in this world reflects light and glows in subtle or big ways

EmbarrassedOil6315 t1_j6a71fu wrote

How did you manage the fabric effect on blue? You work is increadible💎

2

Rosco777 OP t1_j6a89tv wrote

In the original picture of me I used, I had a bed sheet on my shoulder as a base and reference for further stretching the fabric wih new texturs and then applying the darkness and the stars over that

I like the gown it so gorgeously reflects the theme of long dawn, one side is starry night while the other side sunrise, the man or l prefer to call him an angel who waving the magical gown turning night into daytime. Actually l can imagine the dynamics.

Have people on this sub adapted to AI or is this strictly for human art?

ChibbleChobbles t1_j68hoq9 wrote

The blue touches in the gash on his back, and the perfect transition between the hair and the background, give it away. I'm calling ai on this one.

still a cool work of art though

−12

Rosco777 OP t1_j68joo2 wrote

I'm not sure if you are sarcastic or not about those giving it away. But it's not a perfect transition and I know that because I did it

black_brook t1_j68rt7i wrote

Is the gash just because you happened to have that on your back? Because it had me trying (fruitlessly) to figure out how it might make sense as some kind of symbolism.

3

Rosco777 OP t1_j68w9f4 wrote

For me it can symbolize how our outside environment can be reflected from the inside too, that's why the gash has similar colours as the night or day cloth I like to draw it and I add in other artworks too if it looks good

ChibbleChobbles t1_j69pm1a wrote

What I am saying is, if this is not AI then you are a photoshop god. Take it as a compliment.

Like If I worked out natty and people started accusing me of steroids usage, I would be flattered.

2

Rosco777 OP t1_j69wrfc wrote

Yea I get that, and it definitely feels nice to take it as a compliment But it's hard when most people are quick to judge, not because an artwork is too good necessary, but because they have a limited knowledge and can't tell the difference. It's really obvious if you do a bit of research

ChibbleChobbles t1_j6b1qil wrote

I have some familiarity with photoshop and what puts me off about this image is the noisyness the look of digital compression artefacting, the lack of a delineation between the foreground and the background. Its too perfect. For example, zoom in on the boarder between the warm/cool sky in your butterfly image from a couple years ago. The. check out the difference between that and the boarder between the warm and cool sky in this image, there is n't a distinct line, it blends in in a very natural photographic looking way that seems almost impossible. Hopefully your feelings are not hurt by my judgement. I'm pretty much a nobody, don't worry about me. But I stand by it, this piece was totally generated via ai.
