Dragon's Nightmare
Hi all,
A new one from me for the usual Sketchoholic contest (this time.. it's Chris Sanders!!) :) The theme on this one is 'Nightmares'. Technically it was a bit of a struggle with this image. The first idea was to have the dream in 'Ukiyo-e' style, but I ran out of time.. I also had to tweak the value quite a bit digitally. I hope the message/idea still come across clearly though.
I'm interested to hear what you think the story in this image is. Some people came up with some interesting ones when I asked them. :)

Hope you enjoy! :D

Some progress images - not all of them, since most of the sketches were quite scribbly:

I Heart Laputa
I always have a soft spot for Laputa. It's pretty much my favourite anime when I was a kid. It was the first Ghibli Studio movie that i watched.. long before Totoro (I watched Totoro when I was around 16 yo). I think I watched Laputa when I was 8 or something.. on Beta.. and I was really impressed and totally in love with the characters, story and music! and it stuck in my head for a long time.. I even had a sudden dream about the music one day when I was around 18 yo. I recently watched it again on DVD after almost 15 years of refraining myself to - because I was afraid it might ruin my childhood memory. To my relief.. the movie still looks and feels so good!! I love it even more now! :D
So I can't help but to do another piece for Dice Tsutsumi's contest.. this time.. it's Laputa!

NB: Have most of you watched the movie already? If not.. please watch it! Recommended :D
