Beautiful painting and stunning 3D, very well done!!!!

Great!

That #wc179 tag is a misnomer. This is not my entry for the challenge, it is just a tribu --- teaser, for my entry. I've already done dragons, so I've got something else in mind. You'll have to wait and see what that is ...
Okay, okay, one part of my entry is an animation, and it does have to do with a dragon (more like 'Autumn Stroll' than 'Leaf Spin Prelim'), but the other is a secret. A super secret. Maybe ...

Thanks @Mr. Mo! and @Tosh!

You both are getting likes and useful feedback for sure.

I really like the detail put into the clouds! Awesome painting!

Wow! Fantastic! Amazing!

thank you :) love this, the shell reminds me of the seashells from the link's awakening game... if you collect enough of them something mysterious may happen. Beautiful sky and ocean and the sand actually captures the texture of sand. Great job!

JJ, thanks for the avoidance of spoilers, as I still haven't played that Zelda yet. Now I really want to!

BTW, has anyone checked out JJ's and M.C's galleries and enjoyed any of the (in particular, new) paintings? And having enjoyed them have they indicated this with a like? If you were to do this, I would be most thankful. I wish the solicitation were unnecessary, and perhaps it is.

If you wish for some compensation for this, the great thing about the currency of likes is that it never devalues, never expires, and is always in substantial supply.

Likes are ever to be found in more than just substantial, but unending supply.

Fantastic. I love it.

This is truly beautiful, with such rich details and textures. Also, the 3D is extremely well blended.

Thanks I Like Your Art Work As Well : )

Beautiful work, i love the colors in the clouds. The shell looks excellent! Thank you for trying to get my paintings more attention, i really do appreciate it :)

thats so awesome, it doesnt get in my brain. these clouds and the sea are so beautiful! breathtaking

*hug* thank you! I'm glad you came to me! I dont know how i can do..? where can i talk to them..? I feel hopeless.
but I'm so glad you came! as long I have you and my others friends here thats matters for me.

SK, I'll walk you through it, and also send them my own messages. The first thing you should do is send a notice that your account has been hacked to 'support
@
collecting
smiles.com,' but all together, without any spaces (the interface won't let me type it that way). In your email, say something to the effect of:
"Hello Collecting Smiles Support Staff,
I have reason to believe that my account, with the name of 'Shadowkeep,' has recently been hacked by a third party. I do not know the extent of the security breach or whether or not it has affected others. I wish to inform you of it now so that you may address it, and would ask for any as-sistance you might provide me in restoring my account to its previous condition that existed before the breach.
Thank you for all your help."
That should do the trick, initially anyway. I'm going to go to sleep, I'll help you out more tomorrow. Again, I'm very sorry about all of this SK.

Wow! Thank you so much!
I will do that! *big bearhug*

Wow awsome! Love it! :)

Delphox is a fire and psychic. :3

Great job on the painting!!! It looks soooo relaistic. ^ o ^

^u^ thank you!!

;u; this painting is so cool!

-Victoria

well, the reason I'm taking a break is because I was running out of ideas and shocked about yesterday. I'm feeling a bit better now.maybe I'll cancel my break then.

by the way, this painting is BEAUTIFUL! OvO

real good

Beautiful! Great clouds, sand, water, 3D. Really nice to look at!

This is lovely. It kinda relaxes me when I look at it.
Loving the textures on the clouds, sand & ocean. :]

The level of realism is spectacular!

fantastic... an its got to be NG as a fav but ill wach (almost) anythin si-fi. =D

lil embarassing to say but i only just figured it out like 1 pic ago in a background finish, Primordial Infection, The pic i did b4 the Tutorial.

i know how to hide my mistakes well

I probably will finish it, but not tonight >_<'' I was thinking of a glazed donut xD Have you ever seen Sleepy Hollow?
-------------
By the way, you are really good at drawing 0-0

rep - None actully ^^ I just drew it ^^

This is amazing! Great work! c:

neither it is fictional nor it exists in this world.

fantastic gallery, by the way!

yes it does C:

Thanks,you too!

wow u make realistic art. Im impressed :)

Thanks so much! c:

Thanks that makes my happy!
BTW all of my ocs are from a manga/comic thing im going 2 make. The name of the manga is Crimson Death. let me no if u want 2 no more about it.

just got good at the lightning and fire tonight

Irl means in real life

Re: Wrong scene. That was actually earlier in the episode. I do agree with you though, it's both hilarious and creepy.

My Colors gallery interface is wigging out. Putting in strange symbols, and every date is sixth Feb 210six. I'm gonna give it a break and come back later. Thanks all for your comments. I'll get to all of them when I return. :)

-rep actually I just drew em', and ty.
^and the comment above (w/ chucky) sorta bothers me(so creepy), DX.
p.s. really, awesome job!

The backstory is in the painting. You just have to play the painting to read it.

I like this painting! :D

Beautiful my friend! Great job, the clouds look sooooo goood!

No X) thats me in a Princess Mononoke Cosplay. I´d weared it at the Nicon .u.
(sry my bad english ´.w.`)

Cool *-* =D

me gusta. el color del mar , el color de la arena. buen dibujo

Re: It was a room inside a hotel in Quahog.

very beautiful clouds (^^

I keep returning to this pic, it's just so beautiful. I love it!

Thank you! You'll be able to once the story is out! I'm putting it up on FictionPress and Wattpad for the world to see! ^^

I'll actually post a chapter on FictionPress about Magnolia and the Council Saints. To give you more info about their world.

#Sntonetwothree: Thanks for the explanation. I might be able to catch some clips on youtube. It's ironic, then, that he chose a good guy doll, isn't it.

#Kyoumari: I'm not familiar with those sites. Do you have to be a member to access the publications? I'd love to read your work, but I'm not a member.

An thank you M.C. :) Everyone please consider visiting M.C's gallery. He's got tons of excellent art! Go online first, so you can see all the wonderful paintings. M.C won the weekly challenge #wc178, but still his paintings receive incredibly few likes on the whole, compared to their quality (which I deem to be incredibly substantial, and I think you'll agree).

It is so with @JJMAwaken as well, and many other artists, but this painting is promoting JJ and M.C in particular so that its visitors aren't inundated with a repressingly inundative quantity of artists. JJ has over four-hundred followers, but very few of them seem to take the time to review his works, which I'm sure the vast majority of them would thoroughly like.

Please take the time to review the art of these two artists. My other paintings promote other artists, which I'd like you to check in on as well. But I don't wish to overwhelm you. You must do, each of you, what you feel to be right, and for which you have the time, of course.

awesome! i dont have the summary of Crimson Death just yet & there's still some bugs to work out but this is what i do no about my manga Akashi is the mane character & he sometimes kil.ls people but the cops can't catch him so the cops call in a gang of x-kil.lers the x-kil.lers still like to kil.l people but they have contorl some better the others anyhow the gang has 2 opshins talk Akashi in to joining the the gang or disose of him but because of Akashi's past he does not trust people. just as Akashi is about to run up & attempt to kil.l the leader of the gang a cope is about to shoot Akashi but the leader steps in & gets shot in the shoulder just as the leader is about to get stabed in the heart Akashi stops then Akashi gets out a smoke bomb and maks his escape. so what do you think?

did the comment about Crimson Death on my pc

That's fine Hidan. I read it online. It sounds very dark, very complex, very well thought out, very cool. Akashi is clearly a complex character in an unpredictable situation. It's going to be very good I've no doubt.

haaha I mean the FOX version. I've seen all the episodes so far *p*

Thank you!! that means a lot to me! Im glad you like my picture(s)!:)

and., WOW. Ive never seen such a beautiful picture here, its breathtaking. How did you!....
I love the clouds, I love the sea, I love how you did the sand! Just Wow, man! Keep going! I want to see more!

Your art is just breathtaking. I get a feel from this piece of fantasy and reality. The shading on this is wonderful, I can tell where the light is. The fact you put it in 3D makes the piece as a whole more amazing. However, I have a feeling the clouds are flat... perhaps layering them would make it feel more realistic, if that was the goal of this painting. I just discovered your art today, and it is very, VERY facinating, and I truly believe it needs even more attention. The fact you help artists makes you as a person more admirable. People like you make our art community a happy and sunny place to be.
Thank you.

:D th-thank you! your my first comment in like....weeks!

Thanks! I don't know who the model is though, no.

Thanks :) you know, its people like u that keeps me going ^_^

The character is actually me

the black daliah mur,der is melodic death metal

:D oh of course! anytime you need anything just let me know!

reply: its misty, i made it sound cuter XDD

Reply: I guess I wanted her to look a lil' more feminine. So I started thinking about how a girl, a real girl, would style their hair. It's hard for me to picture due to not being a "girly girl."

(in reply to your comment on nargi and a noibat) thanks! :D and to be honest i never even heard of that book! XD

Thanks ^^

And can't say I have. XD

merci ^^

Reply: I guess you're right. If I can get the outlines done, then the coloring/shading comes easily. ^-^ Thanks for teh' encouragement.

Re: No, she's not a real dog, but when you adopt her on here, you get to keep her as an oc. Oh, and, I love your drawings too!

Especially (spell?) your profile pic! Oh, and let me know if you still want to adopt Ella (on here) even though the misunderstanding. It's ok if you don't. :)

(rep) Grayhound

Maybe you could add a crab walking along

Whoa you're good! Thanks for the comment! ^w^

it looks good! :D it has a really rather realistic look to it! :D

pffft! i think your art is amazing! #wentrhroughgallerylikeastalker

no problem! :D

I really dont care

Yes! You can put her in any of your paintings. Just say you adopted her from me in the first painting. Shes yours now if you want her! :D Oh yeah, I'm the spelling queen! >:D *victory dance*

s-sorry...i just think commenting is more meaningful than a like......its kinda like how stars were on hatena...

XDDD ARE YOU JOKING?!
I'M FOLLOWING YOU BECAUSE YOU FREAKING PAINT LIKE A BOSS! xD

Reply: Yup! This painting is really impressive. I could never draw/paint like this. You have a good talent!

i don't know where you got that idea but it has nothing to do with my paintings.

my solution is more effortless and quicker.

oh sorry i thot i did like it. It's liked now! ^-^

this is my fc if you like to add me
Part 1: 5198

part 2: 2477

part 3: 7423

This is insanely pretty. o-o I'm a bit jealous of your talent.

The depth of the beach itself is magnificent,,

*reply yus! ill put u in as #2

?

im somewhat confused

Skydragon, do you know what the fugita scale is? That's what I meant by F3 and F4 on your tornado pic. Sorry about the confusion. :)

Thanks for the birthday wishes, and i love the shell which looks even BETTER in 3D!

This is really, ultra great. It looks so real!

Quite impressive! I like the way you did the waves, quite realistic! This is done very well also in implementing 3D into it. This painting looks great overall, but maybe adding a little more shade in contrast with the shell will look nice, choice is all yours though. Keep up the work!

:0 its really neat better than neat actually outstanding job if i were to try to draw it, mine would come out as a big blob. But excelent job :)

OVO THIS IS REALLY GOOOOOD OMG xD its so realistic >v< makes me miss summer

No worries limonade. I'll keep that in mind UnknownKaptain. That's a good idea.

i wish i could draw clouds that well >A< and that shell....i want to pick it up... and keep it foreverr KEEP UP THE GOOD work!
omg that ocean *swims in it* Perfect! xD >//V//<

I really love this! Iwish I could draw this good. Love the use of the 3d effects. & i love the end of the description. "Art is no place for cynicism or competitiveness" I wish every one thought like that x3.

woah 0.0

Hah! LOL nice beach!

#Om nom nom: What are you eating man?

#Oreo: A mental reprieve fromthe cold is exactly what this painting aims chiefly to achieve.

#Ronda: Thanks! I hope others come to this conclusion independently. :)

#Pum: No problem. Misspells happen.

#ANDWEA: No problem. Your art is good and name adorable. :)

#WolfieLover: Thanks. :)

This is very good, the glare and textures are great

>v< xD

No problem. I just did, because this is an awesome pic, and you´re an awesome person.

the 3D is just .....AWSOME :D !!
it looks so realistic, good job :)

Bravo Mono! It is the former of your two guesses. The darkness is due to the distance and the low angle of the sun.

This is really nice! ^^ I find it really difficult to draw waves coming on shore, but you've drawn it really well :)

Don't feel any pressure to follow me Super Yoshi, even though I may draw another Super Mario picture. Your likes and comments are all I need. I'm pretty good at checking others' galleries, especially when they leave a comment.

This is amazing! This is TRUE artwork. And thank you for what you said.

This is great. No. UGGHHHH I CANT DESCRIBE IT!

reply:ITS AWESOME O.O

this is amazing! ive never seen any thing like it *likes* this is really good, everything about it is great, the lighting on the shell, the 3d, the water, but what im especially impressed at is the clouds, this is really really REALLY good, i also love the small details! this is wonderful : )

^^ ooh! I love the detail you've put in the clouds and sand. The seashell is so realistic, and i absolutely love the detail on the shell. The water is realistic, everything about this painting is truly outstanding and impressive uvu

@. @ awesome...u did the shadiing very well(better than i could have...>.<..) the clouds and everything look wonderful..(nice 3d effect too! ^w^)

RE: Ah thank you .u. And oh this painting is lovely. This is flawless, I can't exactly pinpoint the best part because all of it is the best part. But I must say, that shading in the clouds is phenomenal. You have quite a talent there uvu

I swear I commented on the twice and don't see either comment

Wow! This is great!
Thanks for recommending me!

I totaly forgot cause i was so amazed by your drawimgs i forgot to like all of them

Hey its XxMichelle15xX You commented on my painting, the one with the owl eyes, TBH, ur seashell painting is amazing! I love how you made the water very much like in 3d, but just to my opinion, if you were to make more improovements on your future paintings, make sure to make the seashell(main object in front of screen) to make it more like in 3d, instead of the water in the back, but its good though, keep up the great work! ^O^

I'm sorry I've been so busy with life outside Colors, but I'll try to finish one of the dozens of paintings I start but never finish. Well, okay, probably way more than a dozen. I'll try to include a reference to pw safety when I do something with Colors Gallery rules, but I need to think out the best rules first. I'll probably do something simple for time's sake. I agree though that this painting definitely deserves more promotion. Sorry, gotta go.

this is amazing :O i'm impressed and good work :D

I envie your skills...

Everything looks so real. Clouds, sand, sea, shell... Even the ships in the background 0.0
