Rating:	G
Warnings:	none
Summary:	Kaitan hangs a target.
Notes:	Relates to this piece.

This is more or less a rough, not a finished piece, but I like it and don't want to spend too much time obsessing over it.

I also want to put it out there that I did the final application of textures to the rock and Kaitan with a mouse, while drunk. Yay me.

Wooo excellent!! I was going for that blasted-with-heat look.

You nailed it. Painting deserts is difficult for precisely that reason. The light behaves so differently that people who try to render it based on their observations of temperate light will get things wrong. Same with tropical savannas.

I'd enjoy seeing more of this.

My intention is to do an illustration of about this complexity for every second or third story I post, so, you know, keep an eye out. :)

I see you just subscribed to my journal! Fair warning: the pieces I post there often goes through significant changes before I post it to rainbowfic, so if you want the finished versions of stuff, wait till I put it up in the community.

That's okay. It gives me two chances to see stuff scrolling through my friends list.
