Description And so, on the last days of the jam, I finally managed to pull myself together and realise that my tablet pen wasn't planning on returning, and that I'd just have to suck it up and deal. And bring out my markers. My inking sucks, many of my markers are drying up, the ink keeps bleeding, I've more or less forgotten how to work anything traditional and my scanner loathes colours, but there it is. I finished one more drawing for the jam, and I did it traditionally. Go me?

It's such a soft color! I like the material of her dress, it almost seems like parts are "cut away" from the bodice.

She looks so pretty! I do love your traditional works, they look soft, and more subdued than your digital works, in a very good way. And I love her dress, it's so beautiful. Especially all that detail on her bodice!

Alas, it looks like my picture will not be done in time for the jam. XD

And that's okay, I didn't get to draw so much for the jam as I had planned myself!

GentleOceanMichuru [2011-09-18 18:15:09 +0000 UTC]

Yes, GO YOU! She looks totally awesome. Your inking and colouring are a lot neater than mine ever end up being. xD

rodentfanatic [2011-09-18 16:00:17 +0000 UTC]

Firstly, if you hadn't told me this was traditional, I wouldn't have known! I love the colors, the purple-tinted gray works so well with the dull muted pink, and the tiny red dots you put in here and there are perfect--they match her eyes, but any more than that would have locked bad against the other colors. The occasional line breaks with the three little dots are an interesting choice too!

elila In reply to rodentfanatic [2011-09-18 18:42:45 +0000 UTC]

Awesome, thank you! I usually do lines like that because it eases the inking, my hands are too shaky for long, steady lines! I do like the effect, though!

I don't think they're that plain! But if you want to add more details to your dresses I suggest you just go nuts and see what happens!

Ahhhh.... She looks perfectly beautiful, my friend. So ends her art jam, and we were all glad to it for her. We hope to do another jam for your OCs, they are all great.

Awesome work once more.

Hmm..... If I may, here's an ending theme for the end of her special art jam. [link]

Don't you complain about ink issues. I'm STILL learning to use ink, dang it. XD This is freakin' beautiful. If I had half your creativity when it comes to outfits, I wouldn't have the issue I'm having in regards to drawing Vega or Helka, damn it!

elila In reply to crayishikara [2011-09-18 14:45:11 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, inking is one of those things I can never manage to get right! Also I've been spoiled by doing inking digitally. And while not easier, at least it's easier to fix mistakes! Aaaaand I probably need a new pen.

If you want any help coming up with outfits I'd be happy to, I love designing weird stuff!
