Description Watch the sun as it crawls across a final time,
and it feels like like it was a friend.
It is watching us and the world we set on fire,
do you wonder if it feels the same?

Dust to dust ashes in your hair remind me,
what it feels like, and I won't feel again.
Night descends, could I have been a better person?
If I could only do it all again.

And the sky is filled with light, can you see it?
All the black is really white if you believe it.
And the longing that you feel, you know none of this real,
You can find a better a place in this twilight...


None of this is real- what there is when you shut your eyes.

Lots of credit here:
.
Also, give Anton Kisiel a big hand for making his all-versatile APM figure and even more for releasing it to the masses for free. (I bought it, though. )


PSCS3, Vue 6I, Poser 7.
C&C, Faves especially appreciated (It's 5 days of continued work!)

Subnote: This was kind of a big leap in artistic terms. I never quite had the ambition to do something more epic, but then seeing how many surreal artists do it like a piece of cake it really made me felt impressed and I tried to combine concepts with much stylized elements.

That's a very interesting interpretation of NIN lyrics! I like the engine type thing coming out from the human back mixed with the organic feel that the starfish provided. Cool job.

I love the epic parts and you've gotten lots of praise for that so I wont go into detail.

Things that stand out as sloppy/not fitting is the text. The font works, but you need to space it out more for the top title; maybe make the subtext normal over bold? Personal taste maybe.

Only other thing that stands out as a throwback to old school abstract is that [+] in the middle of the top part. I see what you were trying to do there but for one the anti-aliasing makes the right side of both blurry and doesn't fit at all with the rest of the piece.

Overall a very attractive atmospheric work of art.

Actually the [+]s were copyprotection. So no-one uses any of these in their work (they will not/never credit me nor the stock artists behind this)
As for the Futura typeface it was better than Helvetica, and Trajan didn't fit- so I tried a softer alternative.

I don't warm up more serious pieces to funky designer fonts so that's a no-no. (The T26 ones for example)

Wow, amazing.

You weren't kidding when you said it was epic did you?

To me it kind of shows a split between the legions of good and evil. no matter how cliched that sounds. It looks like the human is in the middle of the battle between heaven and hell. But i know that's not your conception.

I really like the idea..but I think you could do with a bit of a frame, but I think the body was done really well.
