About this image

Participating in the event by napoleonofthestump,  Excellentium and Nexus staff. 


I'll make a soldier's decision to fly away
Load my gun, paint my face, call me misery
I can see the sky light up and the ground explode
Got my sights locked in, I can see you breathe
Then I watched you fall and somebody scream
It's the saddest thing when angels fly away
I can't be home tonight, I'll make it back, it's alright
No one could ever love me half as good as you
Got a badge for my scars just the other day
Wore it proud for the sake of my sanity
I could see the flames burn bright from the winding road
Like a haunting page from our history
Watched a young girl cry and her mother scream
It's the saddest thing when angels fly away

You can't be strong tonight, love makes you sad, it's alright
No one could ever worry half as good as you

    Cinematic trip! Fantastic visual storytelling that takes you through events of death and glory...and with the focus laying on a sad fate with strong emotional awareness! Awesome!

    And yes, we had some "complains" against photoshopped/edited images, but they are indeed allowed. Personally I don't mind images being so, since it's all about what the author him or herself wants to achieve with the work presented (and I don't even have the knowledge of using such programs). People seem to have "locked their vision" on the word screenshot, instead of enjoying screenart for what it is.

      Thank you! I usually don't really count the main image as a part of the set due to it being more like a thumbnail, hence why I feel like editing main image wouldn't be too bad in this context. Although there was a picture or two where I had to combine screenshots together. I would most likely avoid using editing in any form though in one of the next events if I will join them, since people may indeed get quite upset.

      It's a thumbnail, screenshots are inside the description. Plus the rules are not against it.

    Always love your work!
    Always transcendent in some way!
    Oh and for some reason this reminds me of Battle Royale 2, you know the main rebel fighter!?

      Thank you! And sure! My memory's a bit blurry on the second movie though since I watched first one multiple times.

    Thanks for the heads-up about this set, Hawk! Your distinctive style is on top display here, just as adroit with a far more sober source of subject material than your usual high-fantasy/electric sci-fi millieu. Guess I'm supposed to be impartial in looking at these events posts, but I gotta say I love what you've done with the place.

      Thank you very much, I'm really glad that you love it! This event was a great chance to do something with the song I like. It always made me think of some Black Hawk Down-esque or Blood Diamond-esque scenes with bits of Spec Ops whenever I heard it, and very tragic overtones, which is why I thought that this type of visuals would fit the theme really well.

    Fantastic interpretation of the theme ... you show in your story all what it means. The change of the colouration enhances this in a special way. Perect and very artful work

    Amazing set, Hawk, love the dynamics and how lively every shot are. Things escalated to the full hell, it seems, - just like the war should be *-*

    As usual, great pictures with great visuals. The set suits to the theme perfectly, not only as a whole, but also every single shot would be a great contribution to the theme. Beautiful work.
