Where the light of sun will never shine, the sea shall also never know the warm embrace of good or the security of peace. The cataclysms of the surface world are evident only in the increase of life-sustaining ruin that rains down into our realm. Though we are envious of the bounty of your sunlit kingdom, we know that it can never suit us. We are the creatures of the eternal night, the horrors that you warn your children about, and the reason you fear the shadows below. We are indeed vicious and you are wise to avoid these dismal places. Even that which is frightening has much to fear. Our past is stained with eons of bloodshed. Our legacy is that every race different from our own is either an enemy or a slave. Our hatred does not stop there, however. Even among our own kind, clan wars clan and every family has rivals that wish them dead. The treachery boils down as deep as the inky trenches that we dwell in. One is not even safe from one’s own offspring. Survival exists only for the fittest and the smartest. Our world, however, is not devoid of hope. If you allow your eyes to focus, you will see our own unique starry night. Colors of an alien spectrum will dance before you in ghostly radiance. Life, while hideous in form and function, still radiates a light that even those accustomed to rainbow-licked reefs would find awe-inspiring. Just as we have beauty here, we can also foster the forces of goodness and peace, sometimes in the most unlikely of situations. A dimly shining example of this is the Dark Trinity.. The name itself stirs up a feeling a dread, and what it represents is indeed terrifying. In the name of continued existence, lesser factions of the deep drow, obitu, and oculus species forged an improbable alliance. Their leaders, while maniacally evil in their own right, drafted a

  • SANCTUARY Collection Smoke
    The SANCTUARY Collection Smoke SANCTUARY COLLECTION Inherently flame retardant woven collection. Living in a busy world and consumed with technology, phones and people, it’s a delight to relax in the sanctuary of home and cocoon yourself in calm and comfort. SANCTUARY is a fluid collection embracing the continuous transition of fabric, textures and form. Nature has been an overriding influence with organics and fern patterns creating a firm retreat from a hectic world. The feature pattern, AURA, reflects on the ferns and leaves found in our serene countryside. ELIXIR captures the iridescent sparkle of the two tone effects so often seen as the light sparkles thorough the leaves in the woods. DIVINE adds some form to the relaxed lines of the collection. PULSE and RHYTHM explore the organic textures and surfaces found in forest landscapes, and SERENE adds great textural influence to co-ordinate in an upholstery role. Sheers are included to endorse the diaphanous character of nature, adding a whisper of colour and a casual laid-back appeal. Colourways are gentle and atmospheric; including versatile neutrals and greys with pops of ginger, lime, teal, damson and indigo. Independently tested for UK and International FR standards.

  • Cerulean Lancer the Ronso Tribes Are Known for Learning the Monster’S Ways of Fighting
    Cerulean Lancer The ronso tribes are known for learning the monster’s ways of fighting. While most take to fighting with natural weapons, some ronsos wield lances to hunt down the monsters themselves and jump on them before they can react. The cerulean lancer is an archetype of the blue mage class, available only to ronso blue mages. Weapon Proficiency: Cerulean lancers gain weapon proficiency with all spears, lances, and polearms. This ability replaces the blue mage’s standard weapon proficiencies. Cerulean Magic: All spells and blue mage abilities that function off Intelligence now function off of Wisdom instead. Limit Break (Su): At 1st level, the cerulean lancer receives the Limit Break (Azure Lancet). Azure Lancet (Su): This Limit Break allows the cerulean lancer to absorb the energy of a creature that he can see within 30 feet. He deals 2d6 points of non-elemental damage to the target and heals the damage dealt and restoring 1 MP. This deals an additional 2d6 points of damage and restores 2 more MP for every four blue mage levels after 1st. The target must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + half of the blue mage’s level + his Intelligence modifier) to reduce the damage by half. Additionally, if the target has an ability that the cerulean lancer can learn, he may make appropriate Knowledge skill check to learn the ability as if he has seen it cast. If the target has more than one ability available to learn, he attempts to learn the ability that is listed first. This ability replaces the Limit Break (Azure Summoning).

  • Opaque Colors
    When glazing, it helps to know which colors are transparent and which are opaque. Whether a particular color is transparent or opaque has to do simply with its inherent chemical makeup. An opaque color will offer more coverage than a transparent one; that much is obvious. But it is important to remember that opacity and transparency have nothing to do with color saturation/intensity or color permanence. Both groups contain fugitive colors as well as powerful ones (red can fade quickly in UV light; blue used in even small quantities will turn the mixture strongly blue). This list is provided to help you determine which colors are best used for underpainting, which are best for glazing right out of the tube, and which may require the use of a glazing medium. Opaque Oil Colors Transparent Oil Colors Whites Whites lead white zinc white titanium white transparent white Yellows Yellows cadmium yellow (all tones) aureolin (cobalt yellow) Naples yellow Indian yellow yellow ochre transparent gold ochre jaune brilliant transparent oxide yellow nickel titanate yellow stil de grain jaune Reds and Oranges Reds and Oranges cadmium red (light and dark) alizarin crimson cadmium orange rose madder (light and dark) English red ultramarine red Mars red quinacridone red Venetian red quinacridone burnt orange terra rosa transparent red oxide vermillion naphthol scarlet anthraquinoid red perinone orange Greens Greens chromium green oxide viridian permanent green phthalo green cadmium green phthalo turquoise green gold terre verte Browns Browns burnt umber burnt sienna raw umber raw sienna Pozzuoli earth brown madder alizarin transparent brown stil de grain brun Blues Blues cerulean blue ultramarine blue cobalt blue phthalo blue manganese blue indanthrone blue indigo Violets Violets cadmium purple cobalt violet Mars violet manganese violet caput mortuum violet carbazole violet quinacridone violet rose dore’ dioxazine purple Blacks and Neutrals Blacks and Neutrals lamp black ivory black peach black Davy’s gray Mars black Paynes gray .

Rich, creamy, buttery oil paints, beautiful in their pure form, are sometimes even more gorgeous when mixed with each other. The options are never-ending—whether your goal is to achieve bright, brilliant color or soft, subtle color, or anything in between, beginning with the basics is best. And then you can proceed with joy and confidence. Join me as I explore color mixing with a few of my very favorite colors. “ Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.” – Pablo Picasso the magic of color “Red is the ultimate cure for sadness.” – Bill Blass Some of my favorite reds Red.
