♥️ Type of CW: Background ♥️ Reference(s): Image Link (painting that my grandparents brought back from Tahiti) I'm looking for a sunset version, rather than the deep blue sky / moonlit version of the original, if possible! :D ♥️ Extra details: The and are both based on the same painting

(hopefully this makes sense!!)

I added some recolors! And another CW!

SB: $10 | CB: none | AB: $35

Yay! Such a pretty BG.

Sent you a rough sketch. ❤️

SB: $10 | CB: none | AB: $35

[edit]

I finished your BG!! What do you think? I'm still contemplating trying to make the water more orange like the sketch but I wanted to see if you liked this first. I can't decide. xD I also did two versions - one with the mountains faded more.

big version big version | big version

that looks incredible!!!!!!!!!!

I think the faded mountains work better, as it pushes them back into the distance a bit more :D Looking at it again, I think the non-faded mountains actually work better colour-wise :D

Could I be a pain and ask if you could make the water a bit more orangey just so I can see if that looks better please? (I can't work out if this looks perfect, or if more orange would be even more perfect laughs)

I'm happy you like it!! Would you like any other tweaks? Don't hesitate to let me know. Also, if you wanted something else for the item version let me know too.

Was this what you were imagining?

big | big

[edit] Okay more options! Almost exactly the same lol. Let me know if you want me to fiddle faddle with it some more! ❤️

big | big

I think the is completely and utterly perfect!!!! squishes you to pieces :D

The only slight thing that I can see that needs a little tweak, is the item image - it needs to be a .gif rather than a .png please! ;)

Yay! I'm so happy you like it! squishes back

Oooof I forgot about the item needing to be a gif! I also had the sudden idea to make a different item if that's okay? I'll draw it up today just as another option. ❤️

that's fine with me :D Looking forward to seeing what your alternative item idea is :D

What do you think of this? "Bottled Sunset" maybe? I'm still fiddling with ideas because I can't pick one. xD Let me know if you have any ideas!! ❤️ The quality changes quite a bit once I save it in gif format... I'm still trying to figure out how to change that. D: (To the right is the png image, also unanimated.)

[edit] I made another option lol. Can you tell I can't decide? Also still trying to figure out the conversion issue. I found a WEBSITE that converts to .gif without image quality loss, but when I upload it to imgur it reverts back to a png! Bear with me.

I do like the first one, particularly the animation, but then I like the second one too laughs

I had a quick play with the non animated ones (saving both as .gif) - would you say these looks better (less quality loss compared to the .png)?

[edit] I think the second one maybe has a closer look to the background itself, so that's the one I'm leaning towards ;)

Those look great! May I ask how you did that? o: I've been fiddle faddling with an animated version for the second one BUT I can't get it to save without drastically affecting the image quality. :c

Your .gif > animated .gif

>

[edit] I tried saving it slightly differently. Looks a LOT better than the first one. I also whipped up a purple version just in case you feel like releasing both versions. ❤️

^^ that's the settings I used (I think it's possible a photoshop default, unless it's something I changed a few years ago!) - drag it to the address bar for a larger version that's easier to read ;)

I couldn't figure out how to get animations to work in photoshop though (been a long time since I played with animation in that) :P

Today's been busier than I'd expected, so I'll have a closer look at the item images tomorrow when I (hopefully) have more chance to use the computer! ;)

Yay, thank you for showing me! I need to download PS on this computer.

Let me know what you think when you can! I animated both orange and purple versions of the item and managed to maintain the image quality. ❤️

[edit] I made a small tweak! I added a shadow next to the mountain on the < side of the drawing. Let me know what you think?

big | big

ooo I do like the shadow on that :D :D

And the animated item images look perfect! :D squishes you to pieces :D :D

Yay! I'm so happy you like them. squishes back

If you think of anymore changes or tweaks just let me know! ❤️

I am finally able to be on my laptop today!

Would i be able to snag the csc slot?

I can smail you the idea if thats okay? :D

Yay sounds great! Slot is all yours. Can't wait to hear from you. ❤️

Would you be able to do a steel spiked bracelet? :3 I'm willing to pay IRL cash for this.

Hi! That sounds like something I could do. Do you have any reference pictures by chance?

I sure do, friend!

It's Sigm's spiked bracelets, but they can easily be generic enough to fill the gap we have wrt spiked bracelets. We have pink ones but not silver/steel, y'know?

Shall I PM you my paypal for invoicing?
