This is Alucard from the anime Hellsing. I've never drawn him before, so I hope it looks okay!

I didn't draw that circular thing in the background, I just messed around with it in photoshop. I think he wears it on his gloves...

Erm... Not much more to say here...The coloring is a bit strange, I think, but I didn't really know what to do with it... Photoshop 6.0, as always.

A rare expression to find on Alucard's face... A very nice theme.

GawainesAngel In reply to Zensoufi [2008-06-30 17:21:47 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I have to admit that he has that "rare" expression because this was a kiriban pic and I'm not really familiar with the character. I was certainly surprised to then get comments like, "Alucard... not looking insane???" Whoops.

He's a psychopathic vampire, he enjoys making his enemies terrified and he does all these scary shapeshift things with his spilled blood and missing body parts. Pretty creepy. Seeing him with a happy smile is quite a pleasent change ^^

Hey, cool new avatar!!

Don't worry about "being mean," lol! I appreciate constructive criticisim. Actually, I got that comment a lot -- but it's probably because I've never seen Hellsing & had never heard of Alucard before I drew this picture! It was a gift for someone

Sarenh [2004-01-29 18:40:37 +0000 UTC]

ho, some pple have done som long and interesting comment for you, it's cool ^^ ... but as for me , i can't do that cos I'm not good at commenting and my english is really limited , sorrry -_-;;;...
anyway, I can say you that I like your Alucard ^o^ he seems more cute than crazy but why not ?? ...the shading is good but maybe if you contrast it more ( esp on the skin and thne clothes ), it could add more strengh to the pic just an idea ^^..... I like the colours and the BG and also the black border ^_^!!!! Hellsing is a goood anime and your pic is niceee !!!!!

GawainesAngel In reply to Sarenh [2004-01-29 19:41:12 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I really appreciate your comments! I will look at the contrast in the shadows and highlights in my next picture to make it stronger. I like that description... "stronger." That really captures what you want a picture to be!

And your English is very good!! I can't speak any French, so I'm very impressed by your English. I was in France this summer and I was lucky that people were so patient with me! I can't wait to go back Did you learn English in school?

Bright and colorful, love the soft shading on the jacket and the eyes. Personally I might have gone a little lighter on the background, the high contrast is a little distracting. Overall it's a cool pic, though, good composition!

GawainesAngel In reply to asynjur [2004-01-27 17:20:10 +0000 UTC]

Interesting comments, as always

Hmmm... The background. I don't know why I struggle with backgrounds so much! But you're right. Those black stripes & the almost-white of the background is a bit too much. I need to find a happy medium. But hearing this is just reminding me what I already know: I should really start spending time on backgrounds -- learning how to do them & what not. Sometimes you just need that extra push...!

I'm glad that you like the picture, though!

asynjur In reply to GawainesAngel [2004-01-27 20:25:00 +0000 UTC]

Personally I think the best background for a character sketch is often no background at all, or just something very light. After all, if I went to a portrait studio to get my picture taken and all the photography cared about was messing with the background, I'd be a little worried! I know I'm going against the conventional logic here, I don't know why people rant on about backgrounds so, I just don't want them to distract me from the image... Well, unless you want to make a complete composition with a background, in which case you should plan it all out that way in the original sketch, and color the background first, not last--well, I'm just going by this great tutorial by Ursula Vernon at Elfwood where she says to work from the back to the front--drat! It doesn't seem to be listed in the index anymore and the example pics are broken, grrr... Well, here's what I can find that's left of it [link]

Damn, I was hoping to go through that tutorial when I was ready for backgrounds, right now I'm just trying to make foregrounds, LOL! I don't know Ursula but maybe I'll send her a note and ask if it's intact anywhere, ah, too chicken...

GawainesAngel In reply to asynjur [2004-01-28 06:18:23 +0000 UTC]

The tutorial is fabulous, thanks for directing me toward it! None of the pictures will come out but it's still full of information... Things I didn't even think about, like what colors your shadows should be if your lightsource is red Elfwood is such a great resource, I forget about it sometimes...

Hmm... This really makes me want to work on a background for a picture, I really nice one. Now if only I could sketch out a decent person to start with...!

Thank you again for pointing this out to me. It's just what I need!
