Feature 22--AnthonyH318

"Waterfall Sanctuary"

He has built this whole area from clouds. If you can't see the texture on this version, then follow the link to his page and look to the two in the background. Then, while you're there, take a moment or so to read the story he wrote out for all of this. You won't be sorry! He's as good in the writing as he is the drawing realm. 

"Friends of the Darkness"

This one absolutely had to be posted. It took him two days to get this whole thing finished up. And I can surely see why, look at all the detail on the table and all of those shoes! I really have fun with how he designed everyone's hair, too. Excellent work on that!

I can almost guess their personalities by how they're sitting and how they've fixed themselves up. This must be an entertaining gathering too, look how many of them are there! You better take a count of how many people are at this table. It's amazing, at least in my eye!

As for why I've only posted two this feature... Most people wouldn't know that I've already posted three of his works on the very first time I featured anyone like this! 

While I'm thrilled that he stepped up again when I called for people to feature again, he posted one from the first time. ^^; Thank you for letting me post your work anyway, AnthonyH318! (*plug to his dA gallery, which you have to visit*)

Feature 1--AnthonyH318

Hello everyone! I've had time to finally take a seat and get started on these features that I mentioned the other day. The artist is AnthonyH318, a digital artist on DeviantArt who has been on the site for 3 years and I hope that you enjoy his artwork as much as I do!

This is an extremely fun piece to look at, especially with the story he has written in the artist comments. I personally like how he had the fire in the mid-ground glow as he has done, it fits with the story's idea and helps bring the lost and trapped feel--you as the viewer are stuck on a bit of rock with the dead sky above you, and the only thing visible at the moment is that river of fire and volcano further back. Exactly what kind of life did you have to live to end up in this position? You'll have to read his short description to find out!

In this picture we see his touch at a wintery, cold scene; and again I think he did very well. He again has a nice story about it in his description; you'll be doing yourself no favors if you choose to not read it! I'm personally interested how he showed that the dead are here. Someone went into that cold for long enough to erect markers for the dead they could find. Or perhaps they used a mech, considering people have easily frozen just by staying out in that driving snow?

And now we're at a waterpark where no one would drown! According to his story, the water in this theme park "acts like water, however people can breathe it in and still acquire the oxygen their bodies need to live and the best part is the water evaporates as its oxygen gets absorbed by the lungs, making it so there's no build up of water." I really like how he's put the light into this scene, it looks a lot like how I'd expect it to look, just a brightness coming from above and feeding enough light to have the shadow. (Mind that I can't swim so hush up if I'm talking out my tail! XD) Don't those buildings look interesting, too? I'd like to find how they were created!
