Island Prep

Description

:iconbeyondthegreatsea:
After the news of the incoming pirates, everyone on the island was in a hustle to prepare. Villagers set up barricades on the coastline to prevent any easy landfall; water buckets were scattered among the village as a precaution in case anything was set ablaze; and in the distant blue sky, large bird-like shapes moved closer and closer to the island to assist.

Good golly, that background took a lot to make. A new technique I've run into using acrylic and watercolor brushes gives me a much easier time when it comes to illustrating a setting for things to take place in. It also matches the Wind Waker style a bit better.

Anyway, here we've got a plethora of people from plenty of other pieces produced for this event. On the shoreline, we've got RusBus94's Noel, Jr. and Jejunity's Reed Hudson creating spiky wooden barricades, just like they do here: Pre Pirate raid by RusBus94
Up on the distant hill is apples-eye's Leah chasing around a carefree little pig, as seen over here: STOP PIGGY by apples-eye
Just a bit down the path is tachibana-chan's Violet Blythe carrying some pots filled with water off to the houses nearby, as depicted here: Pirate Raid Preparations by tachibana-chan
Up close (and poorly done) is my own Terrik alongside TomoNeko's Adi(na), grabbing some more water pots to take inland.
