My Photoshop Drawing

Here is my photoshop drawing. I was drawing my own image of what the house of usher would look like. I was going for a distorted world with a spooky atmosphere. I believe I have failed at that because I totally don't know anything about the house. I have read the story and wrote some notes, but I didn't really put too much effort in researching the house it self and the interior of it. I just thought that if I just look for them on the Internet and in books I would come up with something, but again I didn't.
So I am going to start from scratch and re-read the story of the house of usher like I am doing with the pit and the pendulum and hopefully come up with a good conce4pt art.
Any way here is my picture from my second and third session of my photoshop drawing lessions. I didn't went to the first one because I was sick, but i am better know.

  1. Hi Shabir, I think you need to go back and look at some of the original images that you looked at earlier... I feel this image that you have come up with here is a little, cottage-like...

  2. Hi Shahbs - while this 'toonish drawing has its charms, I think you're right about everything - yes, it's way off base and I'm a bit grumpy with you because you admit to not doing a great deal of visual reference... come on - how else do you expect to come up with the goods? You should be researching your creative work ALWAYS... now, it's back to the drawing board with you - you've got to 2 weeks to create a world that is recognisably gothic and born of the original text...
