Description This song was running in my head again and again while I was painting.  

The same character (Yasha) but in different outfit. (Wanted to make Ibaraki first, but his costume is so complicated  , so Yasha again ). I guess he is not of a fire element, but if he sometimes burns human's villages there should be fire somewhere ..   So I added some fire.. I know it's not very good, but it's so hard to paint fire without digital effects!! 
It took about 12 hours to paint it from the blank sheet (it's A3 format)

Omg I agree that fire is incredibly complicated without digital effects! Also, digital art has the magical undo button! >.< (No offense to digital artists.)
You've done a magnificent job here!

woooow it looks so beautiful!! when I first saw it I didn't think it was done with traditional media. I bet you had a lot of patience to paint this and specially in A3 size
good luck in the contest, I'm working in my entry right now

your artworks are very impressive! I tried to paint using acrylics a few times and it's really hard but fun! I wish I had the opportunity to practice more haha

this is my entry! I've done it with color pencils. I always have the feeling that us, traditional artists, have a disadvantage in these contests... our media is more limited... don't you agree? well, I do my best anyways good luck for us!!

Thank you very much!!  At first painting with acrylics was hard, but now I can do it fast enough  
Wow!! Your picture looks really amazing!! What a background!! So many incredible details!! If only I could draw such a cool backgrounds! I like very much the pose, it's so dynamic !! It's really beautiful!!     
Yes of course, I also feel that digital art has many advantages and not only in contests, but it's also more popular amongst many artists and unfortunately much loved by many people as it's "more ideal".. And it's very disappointing, because for me traditional artworks are much more alive and emotional than digital ones.. And I noticed that many people who can make good digital pics can't make any good art using traditional media..  And although traditional art is not so respected nowadays, when you come to Louvre, you wan't find any digital art there, only something that was made by real hands of real people, but not a computers and programs .. Don't understand me wrong, I respect digital art too, but don't think it should be more popular than traditional..
Sorry for so many words, I just feel this problem very well haha
And yes, good luck for us, as we really need it!!!!

thank you so much!! but it always take me soooo long to do these elaborated drawings, it's so tiring hahaha. I worked in it through three days!
honestly I'm not very good with backgrounds, that's why I'm putting more effort on doing it! I'm still learning how to draw them hahaha but I find it so boring and tiring to do them, because I have to add many many layers of colors...

you're right on that! it's funny thinking how it would be if it was that easy to fix mistakes and to do a "perfect" artwork traditionally too! hahaha. because I think doing digital art is more about skills using the softwares than drawing skills, since you can redo anything in a single drawing as many times you need until you think it's good enough!
plus, I believe when you do something with your own hands, spending your materials, using your skills and your time to create something, you put your soul and a part of yourself on these pieces, and it goes for pretty much any craft at least, I put so much of myself in my art!! but this is how I am hahaha. I have the impression that in digital art, the process is more mechanic and feelingless, because you are not touching the actual artwork, it exists only in a computer! I tried to do digital art, but I really prefer paper and pencils!
I totally understand you, and I also think traditional art should be more valuated! that's why I like to follow traditional artists and support them more than digital artists I think we artists should support each other and stay bonded! 

I'm glad to be following your art here and I hope to see more of your paintings soon!

Haha, I hate painting backgrounds!! For me it's very hard as I'm not skilled enough to draw some good landscape or something like this 
Oh, three days for such a good picture is not so long!! I've made some of my pics about a week!! Because sometimes I have to paint nearly all the pic if I've made any mistake that annoys me too much..!!  
Yes, I absolutely agree with you!! In traditional art ( as well as in any thing that you make by hands) you put all your emotions, feelings and all your soul, that's why it's much more alive even if it's not so ideal.. 
And it's much more difficult because you can't press the button "undo" or delete a layer, you sometimes have to repaint the half of your work..   
Thank you!! I'm glad there're still good traditional artists here, so let's support each other haha

Aww, thank you very much!!   Oh, sorry my English is not very good, so I don't understand what do you mean by "medium"   Is it material? If yes, then it's painting made by acrylic paints)) If it means size, than it's about 2000 x4000..

Suishoo-MORI In reply to AdriaMarina [2018-05-23 23:30:12 +0000 UTC]

For me acrylic paints are the most convenient and easy to use, because it's dry very fast, much more faster than oil for example, and there're a great assortment of colors  So if you like painting you should definitely try it!
