Description

Finally making some use of my oil pastels. First time ever doing a decent picture with this medium and I have to say - experimenting with them is quite much fun, once you get the hang of those!

Ok, not that I'd have, but as far as I can tell - blending colours works by violently mashing crayons into the colour you'd like to blend them with.
Nice results, but all used crayons become a complete smeary-mess in the end of the process. Gotta work on some elegant solution for that.

And ya, chose this theme not because of TRON, not because of The Matrix (surprise, surprise ;b) but because of some random painting I saw hanging at my school. It had this aura of awesome citylights-by-night-themedness. Got me eager for trying that out myself.

And here it is. (It's a rather older work, btw.)
Whaddyathink? Comments n critique appreciated!
Ah, that chick's some random char I came up with. Her hair was meant to be white, but I didn't exactly know how to implement that so... ya, failed. |D

Oil pastels on A3 paper, scanned and put together in PS. Time spent - approx. 4 - 5 hours. Deadmau5 was my faithful companion in the making of this. The Chars outfit was partly inspired by his awesome DJ-Cube. xD [link]

Wow, very nice! I'm on the verge of conceptualizing a high-tech metropolis myself. Good choice of music too! :)
