Remember this?
No, I never did find a decent background to go with it...
So what's with the above? Just another variation in my search for the ideal background...

Anyway, sorry about the black, black background. At least the mist/fog makes it...less...black. >_<

Did you notice that there's an archer trailing Varynn from behind? And there's a sparkle from the arrow head!
:: gasp ::
Good thing Varynn's not letting his guard down. ^^

Some minor changes:
1) Extended the picture plane horizontally. I think it looks better this way.
2) Erased some blurry edges off his ears.
3) Slimmed the sword's blade down. Hopefully the sword's angle is easier to see now?

I had fun doing the archer's silhouette. ^^
No reference and done quickly with a mouse. >_<

You'll probably see yet another version of this in the future. Sorry in advance. >_<

Ooh, pretty. I like me the background.
:iconnekokikichan:
Nice different take on the background. It does change the atmosphere and mood of the piece itself.

I think the mist does work nicely to keep the background from being too dark.

Very well done, as far as the background is concerned I think it works well... I would stick with it.
