About 2 months ago I heard about this contest. I decided to participate. So I take 3th place on IT'S ART Challenge "The Day We Left Earth"
"We humans have lived on earth for too long. Perhaps we made a mistake or did not take care of our planet, and now, we have no choice but to leave the earth. This is the beginning of a new era and we must remember our mistakes while we rebuild humanity."
there is one russian song about motives and the meaning of that masterpiece it's named - The grass near our homes ... here it's words
The earth in the illuminator, the earth in the illuminator, The earth in the illuminator is visible... The way a son would miss his mother, the way a son would miss his mother, We miss the earth - there is no other.
And the stars even so, the stars even so Are getting closer but remain as cold. And just like in the time of eclipse, just like in the time of eclipse, We seek the light and dream earthly dreams.
And dream we not of the thundorous spaceport, Not of this icy azure, We're dreaming of the grass outside our homes, The green, green grass.
And fly we like orbits, Through untouched paths, Embroiding the space with meteors. The risk and bravery are justified, The music of the space Is sipping into our formal chat.
In dim smoke, The earth in the illuminator - Sun-set mingled with sun-rise. The son is missing his mother, missing his mother, And the mother is waiting for her son, And so is the earth.
And dream we not of the thundorous spaceport, Not of this icy azure, We're dreaming of the grass outside our homes, The green, green grass.
And dream we not of the thundorous spaceport, Not of this icy azure, We're dreaming of the grass outside our homes, The green, green grass.
I love this so much. It is absolutely beautiful. I love the emotion of the character. The background is so detailed and the colors work so well. It's amazing!
If you don't mind me asking do you use a tablet? And if so what kind?
It looks like something out of the Eclipse Phase RPG books (that's a compliment -- their art is very high quality too). It might be worthwhile to drop them a note (www.eclipsephase.com) and have them keep you in mind for future work, or just add you to their list of player resources.
A wonderful piece!
it's named - The grass near our homes ... here it's words
The earth in the illuminator, the earth in the illuminator,
The earth in the illuminator is visible...
The way a son would miss his mother, the way a son would miss his mother,
We miss the earth - there is no other.
And the stars even so, the stars even so
Are getting closer but remain as cold.
And just like in the time of eclipse, just like in the time of eclipse,
We seek the light and dream earthly dreams.
And dream we not of the thundorous spaceport,
Not of this icy azure,
We're dreaming of the grass outside our homes,
The green, green grass.
And fly we like orbits,
Through untouched paths,
Embroiding the space with meteors.
The risk and bravery are justified,
The music of the space
Is sipping into our formal chat.
In dim smoke,
The earth in the illuminator -
Sun-set mingled with sun-rise.
The son is missing his mother, missing his mother,
And the mother is waiting for her son,
And so is the earth.
And dream we not of the thundorous spaceport,
Not of this icy azure,
We're dreaming of the grass outside our homes,
The green, green grass.
And dream we not of the thundorous spaceport,
Not of this icy azure,
We're dreaming of the grass outside our homes,
The green, green grass.
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To earth, who can tell
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground(leaving ground)
Will things ever be the same again
It's a final countdown
The final countdown
We're heading for Venus
And still we stand tall
'Cause maybe they've seen us
And welcome us all
With so many light years to go
And thing to be found
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
It's the final countdown
We're leaving together
The final countdown
We'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown
