Nice work DD  

I like that blurry effect you have on 'Endless Nova'
And the planet on the right is lovely, with all the stars.  

[Tulac]

Well you certainly have gone far from your first work so   no wait actually

[DeathDude]

Thanks Frodo and Tulac. Yeah happy with the way the piece turned out, was the first project have done in a long while, so to get it complete is a good feeling and glad with the way it turned out.

But won't take such an absence with other projects want to do a sig in the next while and who knows maybe another banner.

[DeathSpark]

Just cheked your work, really awesome!!!

[DeathDude]

Don't have anything art drawing related at the moment, but thought I would share one of the songs recently wrote, pretty much done the odd changes here and there but here it is.

"Acceptance." Written by E Barin

Losing that sense of control
That's propelling him downward faster
And faster seeing the fate
That awaits him so soon
Closing his eyes to cut himself off
From the impending destruction..

Chorus

His life is changing every day
Feeling the growth take him
In many directions across the horizons
Where he will end up
He alone will decide that
Knowing the many risks he will face
Only drives the desire higher in him

Tried to find the answers
To the questions that brought him down
The events that transpired so quickly
Seem but a memory now
Still standing tall
Only to find out more risks ahead
On his journey onward to find....

Chorus
His life is changing every day
Feeling the growth take him
In many directions across the horizons
Where he will end up
He alone will decide that
Knowing the many risks he will face
Only drives the desire higher in him

Where he ends up, he does not even know
Guided by the will to finish what he had started
To not repeat the past mistakes
That reigned havoc in his life
Searching to find a calming effect
To feel that closeness once again
That touch he longs for
Soon enough he will feel it
All he needs to do
Is to accept himself..

Chorus
His life is changing every day
Feeling the growth take him
In many directions across the horizons
Where he will end up
He alone will decide that
Knowing the many risks he will face
Only drives the desire higher in him

I like your art stuff deathdude! Some of your banners just rock. That song also looks really good. Anywhere we can hear the music for it?

p.s Cool name dude  

[Moogle]

Sup, clone.

[DeathDude]

@DeathMan001- Thanks for the comments dude. No nothing to show unfortunately it's just a song I've written, I do sing but really nothing to show with that piece.

Anyways though thought would share this song worked on back in the day, one of the longest I've written to date and hopefully can use it one day, divided into 3 parts, so prob pushing the 10 min mark in terms of an actual song.

Twilight Tears © Written by E Barin

I. Reflective Hour

I look to the stars (Spoken All)
Looking back not long ago
The story that I long to remember
Hold it dear to my heart
How I caused so much pain
And somehow emerged from the shadows
To not make the same mistake again

Envisioning, on this lonely nite
Driven so blindy those past days
Failing to see the damage I did
No remorse I deserve for the pain
She didn't deserve what happened
Regretting it all now, but it's too late
Too late to make things right, to say sorry
Now I'm left alone, a product of my own hatred

Chorus
As the night falls
Can't hide my tears
I've caused too much pain
Too much sorrow inflicted on her
She doesn't deserve my touch
Yet I want to look upon her one more time
And remember the days of yesterday

The light flashes brightly
As I reach her house, will she see me?

One more chance to set things right
May seem hopeless right now
The last hope to end the suffering

II. Stakes Rising

The grip pulls me farther
Farther away from the edge
The hatred that burns inside
Needing to extinguish it quickly
Before it engulfs my inner being
Need that last sensation to once again be free

Last change to make things right
To become a better person
To show my true self

Chorus
Time running out
The moon sky lighting my way
Only one more thing I need to do
Accept the responsiblity for what I did
And hear her voice one more time
My twilight journey
That soon will conclude...

Fearing what is to come
Knowing that things will change
Too many thoughts cross my mind
Will she hear my words
Hear the reasons of why it happened
Accept my blame and learn to forgive?
Or turn her back and walk away

I know what I've done
I will not give in
The risk may be great
Bringing closure to my thoughts..

III. Final Solitude?

I've reached this point
Reaching the end..
But learned so much
The hopelessness is over
I've made my peace
Tried my hardest
Can finally move forward, learning from the past

As the hour of dawn approachs
Feeling the strength return
The confidence is upon me
To once again take on the world

Chorus
Opened my eyes
Made my peace with her
This burden is lifted off my shoulders
Whether she accepts my words
I know that I have done what is right
Accepted the reality
Ending the struggle that had driven me
To begin another tale in my life....

[DeathMan001]

Again im very impresed deathdude that one is even better than the first one above it. What kind of music do u play/write and what instrument do u play? With the right music that song would be a killer one

[Juni Ori]

He's also known as Heavymetaldude! And he plays at least guitar.

[DeathDude]

I mostly write heavy metal sort of music, more into the progressive/power side of it, don't play any instruments, just sing actually and write lyrics mostly, have been saying wanting to pick up and learn guitar one of these days so hopefully it may happen.

[DeathDude]

Wells time to show off some actual art, yes now would be a good time, anyways a tutorial I was working on with a fire sort of effect for a font.

[Frodo]

That's brilliant DD.  

I love the flames come up from the letters.

Interesting text effects always elude me, the glows a bit harsh and the colours aren't natrual but it looks "flamey".

Why'd I always sound so fricking negative.

*meep*ing lovely.
