There is an old chinese legend about a young couple who were lovers. One day the young girl was attacked by a man eating tiger! No matter what her lover tried to do for her he could not save her and she died. From the depths of his sorrow and pain he was determined to seek revenge on this tiger, so he took his bow an arrow and went into the jungle, day after day in search of this tiger. He searched daily until finally he saw what he believed to be a sleeping tiger in the distance - - he was convinced this was the tiger he had been searching for. He drew his bow and arrow, took careful aim and released the arrow...it pierces the tiger's body very deeply -- but not all is what it seems... ...Join LING on a tragic journey of LOVE, LOSS and REVENGE.

BRUSH PAINTED LAYOUT/ASETHETIC CONT


...im loving the look of this ^^^
...everything i was originally aiming for...
unfortunately i didnt paint it...
...however, its exactly the style
im going to aim for from now on. It looks dull and somber...
has the feel of weathered parchment...and it incorperates
strong use of pos/neg space...large shapes -- small positive detail.

here's a new and improved step by step formula for
my proposed layout/aesthetic...its not completely there yet...
but its heading in a direction im happy with

my brush work isnt brilliant...but it is slowly improving as
i get more confident...oh and LING hasnt been coloured yet.
...ill post colour tests tomorrow.
