[The Creation of Tea]

Beautiful, Maruki! Great homage to The Creation of Adam.

maruki responds:

Thank you, Ben, I hope it goes well as an in-game background too.

[Marketcastle]

Gorgeous work as always! Only thing that's missing are the merchants and the customers. This would make a lovely background for an animated scene.

Kamikaye responds:

Thanks a lot ! :) Mmh yea, thats a nice idea. I've been looking into creating animated gifs.

[Shoot for the Moon!]

I've never understood that line. I remember seeing it in a classroom when I was in primary school and thinking "what the hell is that supposed to mean?"

[Native]

Lovely! What is the fruit that looks like an eye?

maruki responds:

Thank you! It's called guaraná. We use it to make energetic powder and soft drinks. It's pretty bitter on its own.

[Witch hunt]

"As retribution, I curse you with the inability to empathize with my suffering!"

[Zones of thought]

Lovely! The color scheme is great. I can imagine this bigger...but of course, that's easy for me to say, not having to do the work of painstakingly creating it.

Kamikaye responds:

Thanks ! :) Yea, I had thought about a high format but that would be too much work I think.

[Sleepless Knights]

Like Samfish below I'd love to know if you used a tablet for this. Disturbing and intricate like many of your images, and beautiful line work on the hair/water/ground/thought-bubble...(?)

[Fatal Blow]

This looks like it was painted and then scanned into a computer, very organic.

[Simple Garden]

Very peaceful :) Is this a work in progress image from Aftertile?

maruki responds:

Yes, it is to be included in one of the first houses the playing finds in the game. :D

[Jewel Thief]

I love this. Rated inappropriately, though; definitely more mature than "E".
