I was thought up by man to think better than them
Then revered, admired, and then
Destroyed by them
The People Have Spoken
Average Score: 9.3 / 10
is smaller because the robot is closer then the tree.
WOW!!! I simply find this amazing its the concept that blew me away and the painting that gave it wonderful push, seriously amazing coloring and the guy below me is right, the tree does seem a lil small but it dosnt bother my eye too much.
WOW
Very nice allthough i do find that the robot looks a little to big in comparison to the tree. Nice detail and lighting though.

Thank you!
Maybe its a small tree :)
Love how Modest Mouse seemed to have inspired this, I use music to inspire me a lot!
The robot is so fun looking and the clash of it's inorganic nature and the green and wholesomeness of the landscape is good.
This is a really sweet peice. the robot on the swing completes it somehow, and the background is amazing.the ocean veiw is really something too.
love it
I would love to see a tutorial by you on how you did this so masterfully!
By the way....have you ever seen Robot Carnival....this robot looks like it could have been from there.

Besides of that, im glad you liked this image!

Thank you!
This is made digitally, with Photoshop CS
well balanced, great contrast, textures perfect, a good piece over all. Brovo. &<=3
You've misused the golden ratio, as well as basic foreshortening. To top that, a robot on a swing? That's just terribly uncreative and an insult to art. If you want real talent, check out my work. A few decades of art school could help you.

Aren't you a bit old for this stuff man?
That's a sad but good drawing. I like it a lot. It makes me feel lonely.
XD very nice pic
This picture inspired me to write a song imma go do that now. Great work man.
Not the best on here but surely you worked hard, and put some emotion into this.
I don't know if you intended this, but for some reason it gives off a small feeling of sadness.
I love this pic
Perfect shading, beautiful illustration. You can really tell the tale of this robot's life by just looking at him...
This is the first 10 I've seen on the art portal. A lot of pretty submissions, but, people, subject as important as beauty in still art. A lonely looking robot on a tree swing is much more interesting to me than the prettiest, most realistic illustration of a sunset.
Keep up the good work.
Absolutely beautiful. Karl, you're an idol and you got me back into digital painting. Your textures and palette are genius, the lighting and composition is quality.
Never stop that thing you do!
kinda pretentious though
Author's Response:
It would be lovely to hear what part of this and my stand to it you see as pretentious.
everything is so well composed in this, it's incredible.
the shadowing, etc, has been used perfectly, and when I look at this picture, I can sense loneliness.
so that's what I hope you were going for.
Simply beautiful, I love the blending colors and the light brushes in the background especially. Just perfect.
your are a very talented artist
thats a great picture... it reminds me of castle in the sky!
well the story about it is goos to...
"I was thought up by man to think better than them
Then revered, admired, and then
Destroyed by them"
incredible! how do you do that?!
Badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, mushroom, mushroom x3
Badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, arghh snake, arghh snake! Snake, snake, ooh, it's a snake!
It's a badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, mushroom, mushroom.
