Final background

05.04.2013:

Hi guys, I reworked the whole thing and like it much more now. Also I finished it all up in one day. Which is crazy regarding how slowly I got along with it the last days. I assume from the first concept till now there are 20 hours in. Which is way to much. But I really struggle with painting rocks, so this was challenging for me. Here the version I sent to Javier. The little window on top is simply for size relations :)

Today is the last day my friend is around. From tomorrow on I will have the time again to work on my portfolio & blog. Here some little concept piece. I don't know, how much is identifiable for you. But it's enough information for me on this page to turn it into a full piece when I have the time again :)
