Description

Perspective study with Nightmare Moon.
I'll probably be annoyed with it in a week, but we'll see.
For now, I'm happy with it.

detail: [link]

Nightmare Moon would be an evil Queen, not an evil Princess.
I also imagine her having a very modular sleek castle, very opposite to Canterlot and Celestia. More science-fiction than fantasy... etc.


Several hours. Wacom tablet, Photoshop CS3.
Process: [link]

<3

EDIT:
Fiddled with the shadows and the throne. Adjusted some lighting.
Also, now in .png

Also, I lost the working file because I am an idiot, so I can't make any more changes on it. So while I love your critiques, please no more... because they'll just make me sad and frustrated because I won't be able to follow up on them... T____T

Yo, I’d absolutely frame that and put it on my wall. Love the composition and the almost ‘alien’ feel of the landscape and architecture!


But reading the description it seems like there won’t be a high-res version of this piece, huh? :c
