Description This is a gift for . I hope you like this ja anteeksi kun meni näin pirun kauan! Toivottavasti tää ei nyt tuota suurta pettymystä... yritin kumminki parhaani.

It was a nice change to draw something like this after all the realistic drawings I've been doing lately. But I think it wasn't one of my greatest ideas to use the same drawing paper I've used for pastel pencils. The colouring process wasn't so enjoyable.... I guess I can't colour with colour pencils anymore, damn it.

Btw. I tried to draw one real constellation to the sky. The first person who guesses what it is will get a small prize! (yes, I'm bored at the moment)

EDIT 3rd November: The constellation was guessed right by *LiveWild4Ever . The right answer is Canis Major. Congratulations, you win 5 dev points! (you can see the constellation here [link] as you can see, it's not good so it was almost impossible to find it). Also thanks to those few people who tried to guess the constellation!

A4 paper and colour pencils.

Character (c) *Runio
Art (c) me

Anyway, I'd like to hear what you think about this. Good advice is always welcome too.

Elkenar In reply to LiveWild4Ever [2010-11-01 21:08:58 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, it's nice to hear that!

Unfortunately it isn't the dipper/Ursa major.

i think i'll just give up. that was the only one i could find in your pic...

Elkenar In reply to LiveWild4Ever [2010-11-02 15:42:11 +0000 UTC]

Wow, you found it from the drawing? I can't even find the one I drew there anymore. The sizes of some stars changed during the drawing process and I added extra stars here and there.

Oh cool! That's a pure coincidence. Thanks for showing that!
I finally found the constellation I drew from the pic and I noticed that I've accidentally coloured over 2 stars. Giving some challenge... I can give a small hint and say that it's one of the southern constellations.

LiveWild4Ever In reply to Elkenar [2010-11-02 20:33:59 +0000 UTC]

lol yeah xD No prob
Well, i really do not know... I only have one more guess, but i don't think it would be anywhere close... Lepus?

If you'd tell me where about on the page it is, things would be so much easier, but then i guess it would be too big of a hint

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Elkenar In reply to LiveWild4Ever [2010-11-02 20:55:16 +0000 UTC]

No, not Lepus either. Man I really managed to choose a difficult constellation... it's one of my favourites, though.

The constellation is pretty big so that probably wouldn't help much, hehe.

I can say this:
All the guesses people have said this far: ursa minor and ursa major (these are said twice), lupus and lepus. Of those Lupus is the closest guess.

LiveWild4Ever In reply to Elkenar [2010-11-02 21:20:52 +0000 UTC]

It's not Orion is it? I'm only guessing that coz Orion is my fav xD
Or Canis Major? I really don't know many... I have to read about them again

Elkenar In reply to LiveWild4Ever [2010-11-03 15:48:12 +0000 UTC]

Not orion (though it's also one of my favs). But yes, it's Canis Major! Congratulations, you win 5 dev points!

LiveWild4Ever In reply to Elkenar [2010-11-03 20:38:18 +0000 UTC]

OMG, REALLY?!?!? Wow, that was only a guess because it was near orion! And i know that you like dogs, but still!?! Thanks tho

Mahican-Atim [2010-11-01 17:02:11 +0000 UTC]

Yes, much different than your usual Yeah paper choice is 1/2 the battle isn't it.
My guess for the constellation, and it's only a guess, is an obvious one, "Lupus"?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Elkenar In reply to Mahican-Atim [2010-11-01 17:14:54 +0000 UTC]

Hahah, yeah I guess it's pretty obvious that I'm not used to draw stuff like this. And yes, definitely. Colouring with colour pencils has never been this hard for me...

Unfortunately that's not the right answer. But you are pretty close!

Musta tää on ihanan värikäs! tykkään tosta taivaasta kovasti, ihanat siniset siinä ja tuo kuu upean näkönen myöskin

Olen tosi huono muistamaan mitään tähtikuvioita, mutta yritetään kuitenkin Olisko siellä vaikka otava tai pikku karhu

Elkenar In reply to Sefja [2010-10-30 19:23:23 +0000 UTC]

Paljon kiitoksia! Mukava kuulla, tuon taivaan värittämisessä olikin aika kova homma.

Valitettavasti ei ole kumpikaan noista (en minäkään kaikkia noita kuvioita muista kun niitä on niin älyttömästi, bongasin vaan googlesta jonku ku rupesin tekemään tähtiä)

Jeps! Noh, saan onneksi välillä jonkin verran apua vanahemmilta junalippujen maksamiseen. Ja on minulla noita säästöjä kesätöistä ja lakkiaisista mutta en tahtoisi käyttää niitä mihinkään ruokien ostoon, vaan tulevaisuutta varten. Ikinä ei tiijä jos sattuu jottain, esim. jos koira tarvii yhtäkkiä kalliin leikkauksen tai jottain vastaavaa....
