DIGITAL ART + LONDON ANARCHY

It was like Call of Duty! London really looked like a War Zone, seriously spent most of the day as the riots hit London on the phone to family and friends finding out where they are, and they were all terrified as some of my family were smack down in the middle of it!
Oh and a friend of mine (Zero) sent me this **WARNING** text at the beginning of the night,  thought it was frighteningly sweet:

"And the sudden plunge in sullen swell,
  as i take them all ten fathoms deep...
  on the road to hell.
  Be safe brothas, its gettin closer 2 yard!"
  Quote from 'Bullet Storm'

On the news this morning this made me laugh in terms of poor attitude: Sky News interviewed 4 of the rioters who came to speak of what they did and why? Obviously fully masked and in Adidas branded ninja ware!

The Reporter asked the Rioters who Participated:
Interviewer: "Do you feel anything now, after watching on all of whats happened?
Rioter Participant: "No, not really as I'm watching it on my new plasma"
...

That aside i thought today Friday 12th is a fitting day for my next piece to submit as it just so happens there's a Perseids Meteor Shower at Moon light!,  tonight. Okay so i have never seen one, and don't even know if i could see it from where i am, but the thought of seeing stars shooting across kept into my mind, lighting up the sky. Yeah i so don't mind being lost staring at that.
Heres a link about it: Perseids Meteor Shower

So i spent i think 8 hours on this ...   "Moon Kiss"


I have also written up a quick Work In Progress W.I.P, Please note that this is not a tutorial as it would take ages to write one, that i actually don't have that much time or even know where to begin. So you may find this helpful as you will get to see the stages in how i usually normally work with Digital Art Paintings and photography in general. Please note this is quick and excuse something you may not like about it :(

Thank you for including the tutorial on how you did this, I bet it'll come in handy for some people who want to get into digital art. I've tried it a while ago, it's not easy oO
And I agree with you on the London Riots. I be mos of the people didn't do it for protest reasons, they just loved the chance to go nuts and be violent. It's sad, but when I see how some parents (the majority, it seems) raise their kids today I can't say I'm surprised :/
