A quick sketch of a tavern scene. Focus was on the light and mood so I didn't spend too much time on details or on perspective for this one.

Painting in Mypaint, cleanup and light adjustments in GIMP. Took some two hours or so.

I really like that.

I'd like it better if there were people in it. A quick outline of a bartender behind the bar, someone in one of the chairs.


Nice work, Griatch!

Great atmosphere! It really feels like it's a little woodsy cabin or bar or even a gnome house in a tree trunk, lol.

Thanks for the comments!

Yes, I didn't spend time on puttin characters in there; in a more elaborate image they should of course be there, and you guys have some good ideas for it too. :)

@Photomaster:

Yes, this was done with a Wacom Intuos 3. A mouse would work too, but I would need more time than two hourse in that case. ;)
