Description A sketch commission for ~StoryMaker91 of her character Arrow the Fox ~ X33

I hope I did her justice! |DD

Aaanyway, I gave her bit of a different outfit. Plus, I felt like making some cool action pose, sooo, I figured "shooting an arrow while in the middle of a back-flip would look pretty cool," so why not?
... The only thing is that I totally messed up on the positioning of Arrow's hand on her bow... o.o; And I think her legs might be a bit long, too?

And that arrow is a bit short, I think, as well. XDD

... Bah, I'm sorry it's not perfect... |DD But, I hope you like it, anyway...

X33 Aww, thank you~! ;w;~<3
Heheh ~ Arrow is a pretty cool character... I really don't draw her often enough... |DD

And your character, too ~ I've been wanting to draw her for the longest time, but I never end up doing so. o.o

You're getting better and better with poses like that! Ahh, that makes me feel all pumped up myself! xD
It was probably really hard to draw the arrow and bow from this perspective, but they turned out great! Her head and upper part of the body look so awesome, too! ;A; And why can everyone draw these beutiful eyelashes
Her hands look fine to me! I'm actually trying to see what upsets you about it because I wouldn't change anthing when it comes to the hands.
Her legs as such turned out really great, too, but I think that the angle you drew them in looks a bit as if it would hurt to have them like that. E.g. the right leg spreads a bit far to the right, in my opinion it would've been better if that wasn't so extreme.
But all an all this is an awesome pose, really dynamic, and I love how you manage to pull these poses of q.q

ArticaArtes In reply to Amalika [2012-08-18 16:52:08 +0000 UTC]

Heheh ~ thanks, that's a good sign~! X33 And, yaay, now you can be pumped up to make all kinds of awesome poses, yourself!
Oh, yes, it was... |DD The position of her hand on the bow was the only thing that was harder... XDD
But I love the perspective on this picture~! *u*
Pfff ~ oh, I don't know,we just do, I guess? XDD

Uhh, it's because the arrow is being fired over her knuckle. You don't do that in archery.
Oh, yes... that is kind of an awkward angle, isn't it? XDD I still have to learn more about hip mechanics, I guess... XDD Besides, it's not like I've been drawing a lot of legs, lately... |DD
They're rather simple, as long as you lay down a good foundation to work with~!
Hmm... I've gotta Livestream myself actually sketching my pictures, sometime... XDD
.. Then you'll get to see at how much of a slow pace I work.

Hooray! 8D Your commission certainly helped me there a bit! xD
Uhh okay o: Seems as if someone knows what he's talking about xD I never knew that! Did you investigate how to hold a bow or did you already know that, kind of general-knowledge for you?
Then draw more full body 8D You often do these half body things! They're awesome, but maybe it would help more if you drew more full body ^^
Yes! And then we'll distract you and you'll never finish the sketch. I want to see that happen, please xD

By the way, the part about being pumped up to make aweosme poses - I think it's time to thank you for making me try new things out and thus also helping me improve! E.g. I was always afraid to do thick outlines, but when I saw that you made these really neat outlines for your digital pictures then I really wanted to do that for my traditional art - and suddenly it worked! And I'm trying to make poses in my pictures differ, at leats a bit, because you always come up with awesome interesting stuff. And now you've also been my inspiration to try pixel art out! One day I also want to try to sketch my characters as anthros u.u So thanks for making me want to try new things out

ArticaArtes In reply to Amalika [2012-09-14 01:16:29 +0000 UTC]

Yaay~! Then I'm glad you were able to get that help~!
|DD Well, I KINDA know what I'm talking about... I know enough to know that it's off, but that's about all. XDD It's mostly due to lack of archery-related references.
o.o Oh, yes, I probably should... I've... Not drawn feet in so long, I've lost my ability to draw feet shoes properly. |DD I should definitely draw more pictures that aren't those half-body things that I do. |DD
PFFF ~ Yeah, yeah... I hope we get internet soon, so I can do that ~ I can't wait to get distracted.

Pfff ~ aww... ;o; You're much too kind, silly. u///u I never MADE you try those new things. You did that yourself. ;w; I never made you do the thicker line art. Nor did I make you try those poses. u///u And, besides, you were the one who ended up making the pixel art, even after you kept saying you couldn't do it! ;w;~<3
Heheh ~ well, then, you should definitely give that a shot! u///u I'd like to see you try anthros - it'll definitely help you expand your abilities! ;w;
And I've been wanting to try drawing more anthro-Ama myself.
Pfff ~ don't thank me, silly - thank yourself for finding the motivation to do such things~! After all, you're the one that decided to do them, in the end~! ~<3

Pfff ~ well, you're the one getting inspired by my silliness, sooo, I suppose I might be partially to blame for this... |DD
... You're welcome, silly. Just get awesome! I mean, more so than you already are.

( Heheh, then Arrow is just one awesome bowman. XDD )
I'm glad you like the outfit! I wasn't too sure whether or not you would think it fit her. |DD

Oh yes, much happyfulness. Would you mind if I colored it? Also, would you be interested in doing another one? This one would be a human character.

Oh, no, by all means, go ahead and color it! I would love to see that~! *u*
Heheh, and I'm up for another commission, if you'd like~! ^^ Although, now that I've finally worked out my commission details, you'll have to look at that for the new price. |DD

Cool! Yea I saw the journal right after I posted the comment. hehe I was thinking of getting a couple cheap sketches. [link] Do you see anyone in there that interests you?

Heheh ~ well, I'm definitely up for some sketches~! ^^
Oh, well, that's a LOT of characters. XDD
Hmm... I dunno if I could just pick a few - most of them look pretty neat~! *-*
Buuut, if I had to pick the five that looked the most interesting to me... I guess I'd go with Ev3711, Sage, Eloian, Storm, and Tala.

StoryMaker91 In reply to ArticaArtes [2012-08-18 03:19:13 +0000 UTC]

Interesting choices. I currently have 36 points and I was wondering how many headshot/bust sketches I could get with that? (I know you said additional characters are half off but is that true for all additional characters? Would additional characters each take up a slot?) I'm working on bios for all of them and I was figuring I'd let you read them and decide which ones you wanted to draw and surprise me. Let me know.
