Dii: I love your style. Your featured deviation looked a lot like the Titan A.E. style, which is a good thing. That's the style >I< would like to have, if I wasn't lazy and technically inept. I see a lot of people who are technically skilled, but really bad at posing and conveying emotions and personality. You're good at both!! Congratulations.

Thank you so much! Titan AE was one of those movies that I loved to watch just for the art. I need to get that! *_*

I don't know your characters, but they look cool, if somewhat stereotypical- but hey, they're pirates! Bit hard to make a really original pirate. You did good, matey.
Lessee... The pages are well done, the dragon is sweet, the woman is hot, the second-from-right reminds me of a scruffy-but-cool Sirius Black, and I'd really like to know what kind of conditioner the last guy uses. It's just... so fluffy! And before I noticed the knife, I thought he was fondling his hair. Heh. And their ears all look elven.

All of your lineart is so incredibly fantastic!!

Do you use the pen tool, or is it done by hand, or..? -dies of curiosity-

Thanks! This is 2B pencil, I believe. I always use non-digital mediums in my work. I do have a wacom, but I don't like using it for inking.

So...wha...how... You must be really, really good at cleaning up lineart or have a MAGICAL scanner!!!

My drawings are usually pretty clean without much cleanup at all. But if you work with blue pencil under the final lineart, you can just drop the blue right out through the channels in photoshop.

Ah right! Well, it looks amazing I'll have to try it out at some point, although I''m pretty sure my lineart isn't going to be as clean as this xP

Five pirates, and not an eyepatch or hook among the lot of them?

Not even a beard. Sheesh, what kind of pirates are these?

Naw, but, seriously, this is pretty awesome work. Daerick's lookin' pretty hot over there, with his open shirt flappin' in the breeze.

...my hair used to be that long... then I donated it to Locks of Love... Seeing awesome hair like Daerick's makes me miss mine...

AmyClark In reply to PsychoAndy [2007-05-09 12:16:28 +0000 UTC]

Aaaactually, Daerik is the only pirate among these five. The others add up to three privateers and one assassin.

I thought I'd miss my butt-length hair. It was chopped in December and I still don't miss it!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

PsychoAndy In reply to AmyClark [2007-05-10 01:22:32 +0000 UTC]

Your butt-length hair was quite the sight to behold, though, I must say. I very much admired your dedication to growing it out that long, and I was sad to see it go. Not that it looks bad, now.

My hair's actually still pretty "long," by most people's standards, as it gently sweeps my shoulders as it bounces freely in the wind, whilst I briskly traverse between my destinations. But, getting used to having a foot of it cut off has been quite the transition.

um. Yay for pirates...!

Have you used them in anything yet, other than this? Might be interesting finding out about them.

I haven't posted their story yet, no. There are random pictures up in my gallery, though. Th plan is to start posting the pages once things get underway

AGMorgan In reply to KBKarma [2007-07-23 22:51:47 +0000 UTC]

By eating large amounts of whatever it is your prey likes to eat. Then breathing in it's direction.

Any way this world needs far more pirate stories, and Capitan Morgans.

I absolutely adore how you can capture faces and clothes so well. It's simplified so, it's like a cartoon, but it's so.... real?


God, it confuses me. It's so fansinating XD

Heh, well, I had fun drawing her torso and didn't want to cover too much of her...anatomy. I also wanted to portray her as a woman for once, as opposed to an irate time-bomb.

pariahsdream [2007-05-08 03:58:57 +0000 UTC]

I really like this. Is it just my imagination or is Daerik's hair longer?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

AmyClark In reply to pariahsdream [2007-05-08 11:22:51 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I think his hair continues to change length. But I'm not worried about it yet - not 'til I have sequential pages of him to deal with! When I started drawing him, his hair was down to his butt. The shorter I'd consider making it is shoulder-blade length (which this has a good six inches of growth on).
