Description "The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it." - Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

A fairly new character of mine, who has the somewhat innocuous name of "Nettle."

Nettle is a fey from the north, and was originally part of the Unseelie court, where he was apprenticed to a dark master. His apprenticeship was cut short, however, when his master was slain by a group of heroes. They might've killed him, too, but it was believed that the young fey had the capacity for good. They took him into their care, tried to teach him, and guide him onto the right path.

However, old habits die hard, and his nature isn't something he can just ignore. He ultimately left them, and currently exists as a wandering fey, without ties to any court. He still has that spark of good in him, but only time will tell if it will be able to grow, or if he'll follow in the footsteps of his old master, and serve the darkness instead. For now, though, he simply does as he pleases.

And again incredible beauty. Hmm .. very interesting wings. I have never seen such before. And I want to say that wings and clothes look jast amazing.
Well, if you depart from his appearance, then this is a very interesting character. Very much I would like to know about all his wanderings. And, will this spark of good disappear from him or turn into something more then it is now?

Whoa, those are some cool wings. And I love his character description. I think you did a great job of designing this OC with his past and personality in mind.

Wow, I love his design. Those wings look like they were fun to design- I nice mix of butterfly, bird, and bat wings. It's also fun to look over all the little details of his outfit! And is that a tail that I see? A very intriguing design- a basic fae with a large flare of style. He's gorgeous. C:

Thank you!

Yes, he does have a tail. ^_^ And the wings were indeed very fun to design, and it was just enjoyable drawing him overall.

How can he fly with so tiny wings ? We need at least 9 square meters per wing to lift an average-weighing human...

Enothar In reply to Aegis-L [2014-12-06 03:08:04 +0000 UTC]

He is neither the average height nor weight of a human, plus he has a lot of magical talent, which also contributes on some level. As a supernatural being, it is true that he does bend natural laws.

Hopping on the wing admiration train. Halfway between bird and butterfly, simply enchanting.

Wow. That is one of the most successfully creative wing designs I've ever seen. It's not cliche'd fae wings, but it's not too birdy or angely or demony! Gorgeous work!
I'd love to see some different poses with them things; get a feel for the way they move and function. 
And good character platform. You've got a good grid to work off of. 
Thanks for sharing!

well good or evil really depends on who you ask, for example if you ask a master obsessed lizard or a self obsessed smurf the answer will be different from any "regular" person
