Description LOOK I MADE ARTSTUFFS! Fear me!

My half of an art-trade with the gorgeous ~thaurendim , because she uploaded a sketch of her half yesterday and it was so gorgeous that I felt guilty immediately and had to sit down and draw this today. It is her character from here , whose name I don't believe I know but he is so sad-looking and squishy and I love him. ;o;

I realize I fail epically at perspective and backgrounds and bald squishy people, but - I'm kinda happy with this anyway, and I hope you are too, Thaurendim! I haven't shaded stuff with pencil/that rolly paper crayon blendy-thing for forever.

I think most of those brushes are from *asunder , but I don't remember all of them. D:

This is rather quite nice.
The textures work well for it.

Actually I am pretty bad at them usually - this one was a happy exception. But I don't do them often either, so...

Very cool though the composition especially!!
Great stuff

Okay that's just cool. I love the way the palm looks though. It has so much depth, like it could just... suck you in. Very cool.

A very unique character. You made him look so nice in your style, love the texture and style of colouring here. :3 Man, you should draw more often..this looks so pretty. XD

PriscillaKim [2007-05-23 20:16:07 +0000 UTC]

Wow, really lovely! I love the softness that the blender gave the shading (and indeed, squishiness X) ) and the composition of it is just really nice in all! (Although the lower left hand section does feel a /wee/ bit empty in contrast to the wing dominating the upper right hand/side section.) Very somber and gothic, but very arresting.

Despite what you say about not being able to draw backgrounds, I think the background is one of my favourite elements of the picture. The colour looks wonderful with it. I love that it looks like membrane of some kind- full of eyes that look like cells in places. It's all very interesting and adds to the atmosphere of the picture.
Awesome job on his torso. o.o The positioning looks perfect, and the details on his chest. His hand, I think, looks a little big, even for the perspective, but apart from that this is wonderful. I love the eye/cel type thing on his hand, as well. Great job drawing those. I love the texture.

FrozenIsh [2007-05-23 02:35:14 +0000 UTC]

Original titles are for the weak. I don't think I've ever had one. >____>

ANYWAY

NICE. I love the... whatever it is in the hand, and the lines all around it, and how the palm looks actually looks calloused and a little dirty. The textures on his skin and the wing look lovely. My personal favorite part of it is definitely that wound in his hand, though. Whatever it is.

All the wounds and stitches and scars look really good, and I quite like the way he's framed at the top with the stone archway. It looks like the viewer is pressed up against a stone wall looking through a window at him, which gives this feeling like I'm looking at something private and secret... And he just caught me staring.

Okay I'm babbling now...

It is a testament to how much I love your arts that I braved this site on dial-up! BUT OH MAN, WAS IT EVER WORTH IT. Man, this is gorgeous. The perspective is all surreal and cool, and I love the stitches. Also, mmm, body. Poor squishy wooble. <33333

Ooooooh he is so pretty and so amazing! I absolutely love him! His pose is so great, and he looks so dark and mysterious. \o/ It's just too gorgeous for words. T_T

Now I have to run and finish yours! ;_; *hopes she can do it swiftly*

(and about his name, I don't know either! )

Nice. I like the anatomy on this. Have you been practicing along with Azarath? Looks really nice; I always loved how you give everything a sepia tone and make it look so dark and dingy.

hokuto In reply to azraelengel [2007-05-22 03:38:18 +0000 UTC]

... seriously? The last thing I drew were crappy, crappy sketches on notepaper that didn't have any anatomy, really, and those were many weeks ago. *fails* Thanks, though!
