Description
Ioqa
Gaaahahhhaaa... this took WAY longer than it should have. Digital art is so time consuming. It's not nearly good enough to have taken as long as it did, at least 5 hours.
As far as the cape is concerned, it's a shading fail. I should not be aloud to draw fabrics on any kind.

I decided to stick with the silver horns for Ioqa. I thought they stood out against all the similar colors throughout the rest of him. I also made his claws/nails less dramatic.
Despite all of the problems with the drawing, I still like it a lot. ^^

Quite frankly, you are too hard on yourself! XP That cape is amazing! I love the attention to detail.

Thank you so much Luna! :3
I have a big favor to ask of you. Could you please tell Windy and Moon that I do not have access to Neopets? My parents blocked all game related sites and I can't access it on my itouch or computer. ):

Okay, sure.

although the guild has sort of died. It's still there, but the activity had dropped big time.

Very nice

I don't think you failed horribly at fabric. The underside of fabric is always a nightmare to shade
But you did well.

Thanks Shade.
I was so lost when trying to decide what to do with the underside. I was just going to leave it blank with no shading but it looked odd. Luckily, the text box will be partially covering that part of the cape. ;D

Huzzah for conveniently-placed text boxes
I don't even know what I would have done... probably just made it all dark with some darker areas here and there?

Flammara In reply to Mucka33 [2011-06-12 19:12:54 +0000 UTC]

I know right?
Yeah, I'd bet if I added more layers of shading, it might look at least a little bit better. x3

I like how you drew /shaded the fabric! No shading fail there!
His colouration is very pretty. C:

You think so? I'm glad then!
I'm always struggling to understand how fabric lays. x3
Aw, thanks!

Fabric is hard to figure out. 8C I have no skills with it whatsoever.
And no problemo~ C:

Is he a Kirin?

What do you think? I'm not sure if he's quite horse-like enough.

RainbowLilac In reply to Flammara [2011-06-11 23:53:00 +0000 UTC]

I've seen some very dragon-esque kirin drawings...
I think the general shape of him is enough to consider him a kind-of-kirin, so long as you don't get too anal-retentive over his lack of hooves. XD
