Random tangles, reclaimed tile.
This tile had curving line, including the spiral at the top already drawn on it when I pulled it out yesterday morning. I don’t ditch tiles that I don’t like. I put them into the stack of matching colored tiles to work on some other time.
I couldn’t think of what to do with it, so I started pulling tangles at random. Mythograph was about the third one. Perfect! I decided to run with it, adding the spiral to the ends of all the branches.
Since Trigue was another random tangle, I decided to put them along the bottom edge, using a brown Micron for a color contrast.
After I did that, I didn’t really know what to do. I didn’t like the tile at that point. Well, when all else fails, Tipple can sometimes come to the rescue. I grabbed a dark brown Micron and started.
Even with the large orbs close to the stem, it still looked weird. So I decided to add a LOT of orbs. And how about some brown orbs. And what the heck, how about some white dots.
Now I’m happy! Just a bit of shading and highlights… And done!
Enjoy!
