Yes.

I did watch Cloverfield.

No.

This was not the inspiration. Not entirely.

...

To be very honest, I just whipped big blue blotches around. Initially, the two beasts were godrays passing trough a thick cloud cover, but then suddenly one of them had eyes... v. Nice.

So, remember, kids. It´s not about knowing what you want to do beforehand. It´s about what you notice, and drag out of the smush. Pictures don´t want to be designed, they want to be rescued from falling into Oblivion. And every picture that isn´t realized is a picture that will not come back, ever. Remember what Michelangelo said.

Much the same is true about paintings. And if you don´t know the quote, go look for it. Shouldn´t be hard to find... and no, I´m not giving hints ;3.

Cheers

Waaagh
