Lace going for a little swim ^^

Yup it's the cliche underwater picture that everyone has to do at least once in their life complete with cheesy bubbles

Hmm as cliche as it is, I love underwater pics, cos I love the deep.

He needs a fin on his tail for good decent steerage, but its a great underwater pic.

Actually, odd Q, what starsign are you?

Astrocat In reply to happymonkeyshoes [2008-09-18 21:55:34 +0000 UTC]

heehee, I wanted to stay aways from a tail fin as its been done to death and a bit of a cliche now, so he's got one on his rump instead XD

Well I'm a total Gemini of course!

happymonkeyshoes In reply to Astrocat [2008-09-18 22:10:03 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm not a leo... guess that would have been cliche

As for tail fins...its sensible, not cliche...unless ya gave the little blighter fins

cool lookin' character, and I love the little lampy things growing from the sea floor... everyone has to draw something underwater sometime eh? ... suppose I'd better get on that sometime then, cos I don't THINK I have done yet! o.O

Payasa [2008-09-15 03:30:14 +0000 UTC]

Such a stunning piece

The overall anatomy is so well done. I especially love the calm, relaxed expression on Lace's face. ^^

Also, I really like the glowing 'firefly-like' manta ray critters (or whatever you've labeled them as).

PS: I really think Lace and my character, Vieya would get along. Lol.

Woah, such a pretty amazing picture! And I really dore your pretty chara Lace, because you got him such a stunning and amazing design!!! Really like his glowing scales and the way he's looking at the water surface, becase this gives him an interesting look on his face XD
Also great work on the swimming pose and on the water backround ^^ It may look simple at first, but the fish and those glowing plant things as well as those little bubbles make it pretty interesting at the second look And me likes the light beams, whcih comes through the water surface, because they're pretty looking as well!
So stunning and amazing pic again with a lot of pretty details!!!

thank you, i had to add the fish on as an afterthought as the picture just didn't look right so I'm glad they add extra interest to the picture

Eeeeee! Astro is a genius! I really love how you did this hon ^^. Lace is such an awesome character and I love that pose for starters :3 I love the whole underwater atmosphere, it looks so gentle and serene and makes me want to stick my whalesongs on |D, but seriously, this is so peaceful to look at, you get a sense of freedom here as well.

Personally, I love those cheesy bubbles! But Lace, omg you have such an awesome sense of character desig, if I was creating an underwater character I wouldn't think to put scales on different parts of the body, and they show up really well too!

I always love what you submit, even if I don't comment everytime but this was too pretty to not comment, lovely work hon!
