"Once when I was young,
I used to dream for hours and hours
I dreamed a world that wasn't small"
Sego at some sort of coastline masking depression and regret and frustration with a surly aggressive-looking facade even though there isn't anyone around to observe his bravado.
This entire image was made in Photoshop with a tablet and sometimes with a laptop touchpad, and Sego's lineart was done with the freeform pen tool.
Sego was drawn separately and added to the drawing later, scaled down. I was trying to see if I could make my character art work with this kind of backgrounds. I will upload a full-sized picture of his surly strutting visage later on.
The title comes from a Devin Townsend song from his Ocean Machine album. I was painting the background on my tablet when the first few seconds of that song started playing in my head. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWfTQ2yn1Go
