Description In these days of fear of global warming, it's nice to see that there are still a few activists who care enough to take a stand!

(... but I got to say, she has a couple of globes that I'D like to warm!)

The only problem is this tree is meant for the paper that my book is printed on! ('Sensual Distress' available at Amazon.com! .... subtle plug! )
That means she'll just have to be tied up someplace else!
Any ideas?

Very simple game: about halfway up a redwood tree where there aren't any protruding branches or free-climbable surfaces, slide her into a vertical cutout of her silhouette that's about two feet deep. No rope or physical bonds, just "don't lean forward". An option could be given to add a waist-high upward facing peg-like protrusion to keep her in place......

I like that one guy's idea to have the tree sent off to the sawmill with her still tied, or have it where instead of a bulldozer pushing it over, have a log-cutting vehicle beginning to cut on the opposite side of the tree! XD

Gee, Steve, it looks to me like she's tied up on paper already, so why move her?

I was only going to move the tree so I could give it to her... I figure it's only fair... I mean, she already gave ME some wood.

You're stuff is amazing. Tie her up on the bottom of a wooden bunk bed (of course we know where the logs came from) and then have some sort of scenario on top bunk. YOUR STUFF IS AMAZING!

The situation and pose are delightful.

You also are very good at drawing trees.


Despite the gorgeous content, I only found myself staring at the fine details on the bark of the tree and the poor girl's hair.

Oh, well. Asi es la vida.

steveoreno In reply to phantomdotexe [2008-11-26 09:12:45 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I'm very similar in that I look for beauty in the lines of a piece rather than the piece as a whole.

With the hair, I read once that Adam Hughes (hallowed be his name... he's actually HERE on dA! Check him out!) spends as much time on hair as he does with the girls body, because the hair, he says, has it's own life to add to the picture.
With the bark, I was taking a tip from the great Manga artists who often do cartoonish characters with hyper-realistic backgrounds to bring you deeper into the world while the iconography of the characters allows for the reader to more easily identify with them. (That's all from Scott Mclouds "Understanding Comics")

P.S. I like your stories!

Wow! Thank you!

See? See? Instead of writing stupid flirtatious, lusty comments and getting a similarly terse answer, I learned something interesting!

Thank you for that little snapshot as to how you work - because I agree in many ways. The aspects you helped to focus on brought this picture out of the screen like an 80s comic book.

steveoreno In reply to phantomdotexe [2008-11-27 10:12:21 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome! Although I'm also a fan of stupid flirtatious, lusty comments as well... It's just that they're harder to follow up with anything educational or philosophical.

As for the little snapshot into how I work... I actually have photo albums full of all that stuff... but I usually keep it to myself... Trust me, you don't want to get me started!

But I HAVE to know if the 80's comic you were referencing is from a-ha's 'Take On Me' Video! (If you look at my front page under "Favorite Band" you will see I am the World's biggest a-ha fan! I have all NINE albums! YES, they had nine! AND Morten Harket's solo album!)
If that wasn't what you referring to, then disregard all that.

Good to know how you feel on that subject. I have discussed it with other users, and everyone seems to have a different opinion.

Um... that is exactly what I was thinking of! I had no idea anyone would pick up on that, considering how vague I made it! High-Five!

Nine albums?

steveoreno In reply to phantomdotexe [2008-11-28 09:16:07 +0000 UTC]

That wasn't to say that I WON'T discuss it... it's just that when I start... I don't stop. Many a friend and family member has been caught on the receiving end of an art philosophy diatribe.

YES! It WAS a-ha!

Nine albums? ......
Hunting High and Low
Scoundrel Days
Stay On These Roads
East of the Sun West of the Moon
Memorial Beach
Headlines and Deadlines
Major Earth Minor Sky
Bloodlines
Analogue

NINE!

Bonus: Morten Harket's Solo album
Wild Seed

High Five Back! (Holds up hand as phantom slowly backs away, avoiding eye contact)

YES, I have them all... and yes, people think I'm insane because of it.

As much as everyone loves a good saw mill scene, I believe you already mastered that in a previous picture. Therefore, the obvious route this lovely damsel must take, being so devoted to her "save the plant-life" cause and all, is to remain tied and tape gagged, removed from the tree so as not to stain your much needed paper, and fed to a carnivorous plant thats gone weeks without a good meal. Saving plants, making paper, everyone wins!

Wrap her up in plastic wrap, and put her in a grove with other women on stumps of fallen trees as a sort of "memorial garden".
