I guess this person isn't active anymore. Damn, that sucks....

Why is it every time I meet someone who can draw like Aoyama-sama, they ditch deviantART?! It's not fair....

Very few works on fanfiction have garned my adoration,even fewer as works of art and are, not on par, but exceed the original premisi, but only your story of "Unspoken Love" has ever moved myself to such a state of emotion and tears.

Ai utterly enamours me due the very nature of her origins; many of us love the contemporary idea of a loving princess, prince, and a happily ever after, but rarely is the story of the "one way street" explored.

Your words reverberate through my mind, and I can not help but feel utter sadness. I would do you no insult by calling it pity for Ai, nor empathy,... it is somewhat perplexing to myself as to why your passages are so truly emotionally evoking. Perhaps... it is because through it all she never falters in her love for him... she always "gives" but does not demand in return. She treasures what only is given to her out of his choice, yet, Conan is not merely a love but a point of existence... and that only compounds the despondency of her scenario. She loves him when he expresses love for Ran. She loves him when he is leaving her. And that... angers? No. saddens? Perhaps... Breaks. Breaks me inside.

I realize you probably do not care for the writing of fanfiction currently and have moved on to other things but i wish to state you had done a marvellous job in your depiction of Ai; a truly fitting narrative of a truly dynamic and wonderful character. The story of a "witch" that never got the "prince," never perserved but in the mind of one who is anchored and torn by the very existence of a "Unspoken Love"

Oh, and I've read your fanfic about ShinShi or ConAi, you are not only good at drawing but also wonderful at writting .
Have you seen the only drawing about Ai-chan I up to DA? Some of the friends told me that she looked good, although the left hair part seems to have some problem.

Lol thank you. =")Those fanfics I wrote a long time ago so I didn't think anyone would still read them. x'D These days I kinda think of drawing one of the stories of my Love is Unspoken fanfic but I'm too busy. x'(

Oh sure I did. It's really nice. The left part seems fine to me, maybe just a little bit bigger than the right part. x')

No problems my friend, I like the stories, so I commented.
The hair of boys in FF changed my style of drawing hair, especially the "duck-ass hair style" - we call it in our language. I'm trying to finish 3 or 4 of my new drawings. The portrait, which I believe I told before is the hardest one. With only 2 pencils, I can't finish it so fast, the face shading is easy, but the hair is... Anyway, I think I will upload a new chibi drawing this or the next week, I'll wait for your comment .

lazemar [2011-05-29 15:36:23 +0000 UTC]

Your doujinshi is simply too beautiful. I think it fits perfectly with what Ai feels, really... It's so sad. But I believe that she will be able to find happiness, even if it's without Conan. She just has to keep walking. As we all do.

Great job!!!

grayfirefly In reply to lazemar [2011-06-06 05:59:46 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much.

I guess I didn't think the story would be so sad. When I drew the doujinshi, I only thought that Ai's love, just like the mermaid's, even if it's most likely unrequited, even if it doesn't have a happy ending, it's still so beautiful nonetheless. Because for someone like Ai, who has nothing and comes from such an inhuman organization, she's still able to love and she knows how to love someone more than anyone else does.

teach you digital coloring?

yea maybe I can
but only if you re really determined to it.
and you should learn it yourself.
you should struggle for it.
(well, I rather enjoyed the learning process though.. )

I really like digital art. So I'm pretty sure about learning it. :] It's just that I don't have enough time and I don't exactly know where to start. =S

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

mysticswordsman21 In reply to grayfirefly [2010-01-26 08:43:47 +0000 UTC]

where to start?

I started from image-editing
learning how to use lasso tool and some basic PS tools.
something like this (look at the original pic in the desc) -> [link]

then for the true coloring, learning n experimenting pen tool a lot.
anime-cell-shading style. my 1st try => [link]
used pen tool a lot there

try do some coloring like that 1st. that s the basic of anime-style coloring. you must know how to use pen tool.
if u dont know, learn it. here: [link]

as for me this is the coloring tutorial I used at the start: [link]

currently I am experimenting with some different anime-styles. Im still advancing~
