Very scribbly WIP. Tablecloth, two pears and some cherries.

@Zaph: Nice work so far, I like the bowl. Not sure about the dither on the fence though

most use only these colors?

a very cheap wip. btw are you sure that is only these colors?

Don't say "only".

@Phrozen : Awesome, the cherries are great and the colors are wonderfully used. :D
@Zaph : The perspective is great, but I wouldn't recommend dithering on the bowl.

And mine of course!

what is the best? and what should I do? Don't know what to do O.O

@Doom: I like 1 better...

@Phrozen: your WIP gives me imaginary boners :9. Only they're real. Anyway...



since I had already done a still life with those "classical" fruits (eg. lemons, apples, etc), I decided to bend the subjects a lil': those are all brazilian fruits (starting from down-right and going clockwise): jackfruit, cashews, guava, graviola, umbu, açaí and a pinha (sorta like pine) on the plate.

 I tought that since the fruits were already odd enough, I'd stick to uncreative/vanilla color choices, but now that I see those WIPs I think that maybe this wasn't a smart move at all...

Anyway, I'm sorta of pleased with how it looks now but I want to explore deeper, C+C? The background is a place holder right now, ideas for it are quite welcome. And I'm not sure I'll have the willpower to properly texture this.

I think I actually might enter this. It was long ago I pixel'd but what the heck, why not give it a shot?

Thats pretty cool dra!

@phrozen:I think that one cherry is somewhat weird here is  what I mean:

I hope it helps

So many great WIPs, this week will be hard to vote for.

*I'm really impressed by Phrozen's piece, looks different than all the others even tho the same colors, I likes eet a lot.
Although the frame corners are questionable.
