Whispers in the Dark
a Great Mouse Detective fanfiction
Chapter 10 | Something wrong ...

illustrations.: prologue | 01 | 02 | 03 | 04 | 05 | 06 | 07 | 08 | 09 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 ...
the chapters: prologue | 01 | 02 | 03 | 04 | 05 | 06 | 07 | 08 | 09 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 ... (to be continued)

summary: AU - None believed that the hate-filled words of a little girl could still live on after more then 200 years, but when strange events start occurring in London the city's only hope of survival lies with one mouse ... and a rat?


Hya all! It has been too long, that it has :aww: But now I am back with a little treat :D - well, I least I hope.

Yes, you guessed it: Whispers in the Dark has just been updated :D Would have updated it sooner but three things happened much in the same time: I didn't have any free time left for anything other then sleep, I kept changing my mind and last but not least: this was turning into a monster! Reason why I had to split it in half (the other half being unfinished ... ) but hopefully, next update won't be a month away from now XD

Now, concerning the pic - SPOILER! Though there are so many things happening in this chapter - things that (I think) deserved to be illustrated ... - I ended up drawing Thinker in her moment of complete terror because: I really wanted to draw snow (when there are 38C outside XD) and because I already had this scene doodled somewhere in my sketchbook so ya' XD

Anyway - gonna get some ice-cream. Meanwhile, enjoy :D

Vision: At my initial view, I didn't know what was going on other than it being a moment of horror. Poor Think is frightened by something, and convincingly so, enough to grab my attention. If someone were to view this and say, "That character looks like it's watching a horrible event" and had never read the story, then the artist has succeeded in her task. 5.0

Originality: It's not the first time the 'hero' sits in a hiding place and witnesses a crime in progress. However, I have to give full marks when I don't believe I've ever seen a bumblebee hiding in leaves and snow. 5.0

Technique: For a nature environment, it looks like a lot of various paint blotches. The leaves are soft and smooth along with the outer view of the snow. On the left and right sides of the picture, those look like miniature branches again in paint blotches. The technique is basically soft and solid, her usual style, and I like it quite a bit. 5.0

Impact: Fear, and lots of it from the subject. I also get a cold, tense and uncomfortable sensation. Her eyes bring sympathy to me as well as a desire to wishing she were in a safer and warmer place. 5.0

Yup. Photoshop CS2 all the way ^^
I tried other programs such as Corel Paint Essentials, Open Canvas and Sai in the past as alternatives (and still use Sai for sketches :lol: ), but it seems that despite everything Photoshop still remains the best program for me ;) (even if it times it can "freeze" - but as longs as I remember to restart my pc before starting work and don't open Firefox, then all's well :aww: )
