BLUE SUN ROOM IMAGES

Captain and the Albatross I
Saturday, January 20, 2007

OK so here's the first of three slightly different wallpapers that I did. Basically all thats different are the effects that the pics of captain and the river were put through. This is the most...interesting...not my favorite but I like it in a weird way.

If I didn't know it was supposed to be River...I wouldn't have correctly identified the person in the blue imagery:(

Still...great jog, Nidrian :D

It took me a moment to find River untill I realized it was the upside down profile I love so much. Once you know that, it's pretty hard to miss her.

I kinda like this one. Niffty.

I have to comment here again becaue I just looked at the other two and this one is my favorite. There are many reasons it stikes my fancy and I'm going to ramble a bit while I explain.

One: the way they're almost being eaten up by the shadows.
Two: how their faces are indistinct and almost abstracted.
Both of these work really well with my understanding of the characters and thier states of mind throughtout most of the film

And the upside down River works really well with the distortion I think. In the other two you can see her right away. Here you have to hunt for her a little bit and alter your way of looking at it. We automatically look for eyes at the top, mouth at the bottom and so on when told there is a face to see. When things aren't as we expect them we stumble and get lost, which is pretty much how River lives her life. She lives in a state of altered perception where nothing is what we consider normal.

Out of Gas Mal - SMALL
OK so I fixed the size on this. I didn't realize it was soooo massive....anyway same commentary cut and pasted from the massive version: Wow, it has been a super long time since I have posted anything! I have been really busy with my classes and stuck in a creative funk which pretty much sucks. I have decided to try to teach myself how to draw - I'm using the middle school art class tactic of square-by-square which is a sort of cross between freehand and copying. At least thats how I see it. Anywho, this is my first attempt - the mouth is a little weird, the eyes aren't exactly the way I thought they should be and my scanner didn't pick up all the nuances of the shading but, eh, what can ya do? Not too shabby for a first go of it. Comments are like candy. I can never get enough!

River - Bushwhacked (Blue)
Second version with similar uncreative title. Comments are great, as always.


River - Bushwhacked (Red)
Very uncreative title, I know. I kinda struggled with what to do with this one...I started with the background but it needed something more - I came up with two versions, the second of which will be posted shortly. Anyway, comments are awesome and I always love hearing what everyone thinks! =D


Melted III
Third and final color scheme. No text version available upon request.


Melted II
Second color scheme. No text version available upon request.

So, I have been having kind of a rough day (don't worry, I won't prattle on about the details, suffice to say a close friend is in the hospital) and as always, photoshop becomes my therapy to get my mind off of things for a little while- I had about three different color schemes for this and I think this is probably the best. If anyone would like for me to post the other two different color schemes, just ask and no-text version is available upon request.


Broken - No Text
For anyone who likes no text better.

Ok so the text I came up with myself and boy was it tricky. I wrote two verses and I wasn't happy with the lines but then just as a goof thought I alternated first and second verse lines and I think its rather schnazzy now. Overall, I am very very pleased with how this turned out, especially with the images of Inara - The image of Mal gave me one hell of a time, but I think it turned out ok. No text version can be posted if desired, just let me know. Anyway, comments are always awesome.


River III
Third River wallpaper that I've done, kinda sorta happy with how it turned out, I'm still deciding. The more I look at it, the more I like it, but I'm not sure it's 100% as great as it could be. Anyway, comments, as always, are great.
