Definitely my favourites series of your work so far, in every way (artistically and narrative wise ( the story behind)). Is it done for particular project or..?
# 4 rules especially.

[Forge]

ok... can u give the synopsis ?
i really like your environments...

[davi]

It's a personal project

I'd rather not explain any of the images either; Follow the story as you see fit, and this is just the beginning.

[RAMÓN]

I like the concept very much, and love the way it's executed.
Nice work.

[Sinix]

Ooo, neat, I'm kinda following the story. Those scenery shots are great.

[N D Hill]

I second that. The environments are top notch. They remind me of those done by Seung Ho. They read great visually. The Penguins are cool to. Simple but full of emotion that isn't expressed only through the faces. I have to admit, penguins falling like comets do make me a little curious as to the story.

[daMichi]

penguins with wings??? that's really strage man!!
but the last pic is very good!:)

[ChaosJT]

wow. Those penguins make me sad. Good art though. especially the mountians. very detailed. :chug:

[OLSEN]

The composition on lost-013.jpg is awesome, the dark on the left makes it claustrofobic although it´s more or less an open environment. All of them are good, but that one stands out a bit more imo. Cant wait to see the rest.

[PriNcE oF SpAcE]

duh! :rolleyes:

I think it's pretty obvious people that we're looking at an alternative Darwin-ish evolutionary theory on how Penguins lost their wings...:p

great work....

[Skank]

those last 2 are very well done, i actually got a sense of looking over a vast space in those 2.
your use of color throughout the series is great! i love the background colors youve used.

great job!

[JoshuaTheJames]

Interesting Administrator X.

[Yoko Kanno]

Definitly interesting. The first few look done in photoshop and the last two look like they were done in Painter. I'm sure I'm wrong and were done in 1 program collectively.

Mind tellin'? I'm very interested in learning of new techniques.

[poly_cube]

damn those landscapes are gorgeous!

[gazamc]

i may have interpreted this in a way you never intended, but it so makes me think of 'the fallen angel' who essentially become the devil :evilbat:

well thats just what i picked from it.

i love the art, your landscapes are beautiful.

[otis]

Davi!

GREAT STUFF!! I LOVE THIS NEW STYLE!!! Your environments are simple and beautifull. Keep them comming!!!!

[GirafeEnFeu]

Davi, these are wonderful! I expecially love the 3rd one...:love:

[R_M]

great mountains!

[c0g]

Wow, these are great.

[Nimrod]

davi, man, wow, I sort of hate to post just praise, but i had to say those landscapes are really beautiful... Your palettes and that atmospheric perspective are top-notch!

[gallon]

Best so far, Davi! I really like 'em

[davi]

i've never had a reply like this before...
uhhhhh thanks!

i guess attempting story telling and taking a crack at envoriments payed off!

i'm considering making this into a daily or...weekly type of comic. anyways really thanks... i'm about to fall over...

[Halis_Aetrous]

Stunning. Plus it has penguins. ^_^

Your work is always good, Davi. Kudos for another great series.

[boehmke]

Looks great so far davi. I hope the Hamster and Scottish dog show up.

[Jason Manley]

davi your stuff is progressing very very nicely. these are wonderful

[davi]

thanks jason, all the tips you've given me over the year might be actually paying off!

boehmke, lol can't believe you remember that... possibley. :P

[Dementist]

Beautiful... who would've thought that you could get so much raw emotion out of penguins? Masterful work, Davi. Great to see you doing something like this.

[I.was.ink]

What a story davi!

You have really improved in the last month or so. Congrats, these are looking great

:thumbsup:

[Nucleardan]

you know Davi, there is a story about two angels called Murder Mystery. It's written by Neil Gaimen. You should give it a look.

Dan

[MindCandyMan]

These are sweet davi!! Any tips you can give me on how to paint those mountains they look great! I love the underwater one too...awesome.

[3bleadpencil]

it's been a while since I seen your work but I'm amazed what 3 months of dedication will do....keep it up

Are you kidding me? I love pinguins! this is great! and Murder Mystery is a fine, fine Neil Gaiman story. Truly check it out.

[ChadTHX1138]

Davi this is some of the (no pun) coolest stuff I have seen you do. Are you thinking of doing a webcomic? if it were like this it would be awesome.

way to go...

[Glenn K]

Nice Work Davi!!

I like the third frame from the top best.
Interesting story. Look forward to seeing the next post.

[AFoote]

On the pic where the penguin is silhouetted against the top of the water you should add some blood pooling around his body from his back (in the water) and add some great red lighting effects...

Just an idear...

[Diego]

These are amazing Davi......and indeed your work has evolved way faster.......

[keyth]

hey davi!!!! i gotta add my two cents as well. you are and have been one of the fastest improving artists here. these are really striking to look at and also convey emotion. it's cool, because i remember your earlier work from way back in the day. i can't wait to see what you'll post next.

:chug:
keep'em com'n!!!!

[Famboozled]

hey davi, I just have to say your work always gets better and better, your improvement curves up exponentially. I love the tone an style too, man... Wonderful work man, I love it!

[Sonnenkind]

simply amazing

I got kinda lost between the fourth and the fifth. Hard to follow your mind in those. I really like that though, because it makes you look at em again, try to see the connection and not just look at em go "nice" and then find another thread.

why are there two "crashs"? Are they both fallin? Probably, but I'll just wait for the next ones, it'll probably get clearer then.

It's kept so simple- and still thereis so much expression in there. Like reading a children's book

[dysphoric]

fabulous characterization

BREATHTAKING landscapes

big-up, great work man :inlove:

[Oblio]

Davi... you rock!!! These are lovely - definitely the fav of your work.
Thank you.

Oblio

[Anto]

what wonderful emotion these pieces hold
job well done!

i was listening to this very atmospheric vocal trance music as i was scrolling through the responses...
and then i scrolled into your underwater scene...the image combined with the music was just..fuckin awesome!
i stared for like 5 minutes until the song was over :)
great job - keep going with these

[Robolus]

Wonderful colors!!! :eek:

[DHC]

You got some really great paintings here. I agree with others, the enviroment one totally rulz. The latest one you posted is stunning. Keep the story going! :D

[cycrincy]

[nova]

<3

[Form]

davi: these are both dynamic and beautiful in a way that leaves the word "evolved" palpitating in my mouth. i sense a great level of spiritual awareness in your work, davi - - you have a highly developed sense of the way the world works as a whole. I know these may be merely penguin pics, but i sense that you have something deeply emotional and honest to share with the world.

needless to say, keep it up.

[Waster]

Oh I love penguins. They are coming to a theatre near you.(I hope...) Anyone heard about the big upcoming penguin animation movie: "happy feet"? Its supposedly starring "Frodo" as main character voice. Dunno what company is going to do it. Check out http://www.scriptshark.com or something like that...
