Mal and River
Wednesday, February 21, 2007

Ok, so I have been sick lately and right now I am very very annoyed because the show I was looking forward to all day (Criminal Minds, great show) was replaced with a basketball game (boo) and the thing that sucks is, its only because I live in columbus. Everywhere else, my show is still on. No fun, no fun at all. The bucks can burn in hell (and if anyone around here heard me say so, I would be beaten) but at any rate, Photoshop is like therapy and I haven't submitted anything in a long time. I kinda started this as an 'amusing moment' wallpaper but then somehow it evolved into that plus 'evolution of mal and river's relationship' - I honestly don't know how I got to that, but when I look at it - well that's what it is- so while I am slightly bewildered and confused, I am pleased with how this came out. It was a bit of a struggle. Anyway, Comments are great - c'mon, be kind to the sick girl ;)

I love the paint-like effect you've got for the images in the background. How do you do that?

Very well done. The picture is almost flawless in the delicate cropping you've done. You've managed to incorperate 5 (or more) different images into one without it looking so. Excellent.
Only thing I would have to comeent on, is Mal's shoulder just above Rivers neck looks slightly pixalated. I expecially like the slight 'halo-effect' you've made on the large Mal.
Great work once again, and get well soon. Just remember though, if you're going through hell... keep going.

This is very cool. I like how the main focus seems to be that hilarious moment in the infirmary, but any Browncoat will be able to tell the story behind the rest of the pictures. Great work!

Damn it! My comment got et!

;)

To reiterate: this is some definitely brilliant stuff, Nidrian, and I really think it shows of the Mal/River relationship brilliantly...though not the one you seem to think you emphasized.

Personally, I think this little montage really shows the father-daugther relationship Mal and River have (even if it's not really a blood-based one), since Mal's indicating he doesn't care if River is all creepy cuz he cares about her regardless of her mental state. Though he does prefer her quiet moments of nuttiness;D

ah...the strange, interesting, morbid facts you learn on firefly. the two most interesting facts in the series are: how much pressure it takes to break human skin and how long it takes to drain the human body of blood. "Morbid and creepifying" is exactly correct.

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.


Melted
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.
:)


Broken
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.
