Description I blame this on *Rusky-Boz and on the trailer for the 10th OP movie...

She was also kind enough to be my beta and point out the mistakes of the original drawing. Thank you Rusky-chin!

I just bought a calligraphy pen/brush, I love inking with it! Then I felt like working in traditional media so I colored it with watercolors.

And since I had to take a photo of it I used a texture from CGtextures.com to hide the flash light and ugly photo texture.

Haha I like drawing mature Luffy XD

Are you up-to-date with OP? I think he's growing a bit more mature now, if you compare it to the beginning By the end of the series I bet he'll be all grown up ;}

Thanks a lot!

w0und3d In reply to irenukia [2008-04-04 07:19:06 +0000 UTC]

yes, he seem to be a bit more mature somehow..(or is it wise instead?)
but however mature he is, seems like he'll always be the aho senchou.. hahaha

you're welcome. maybe you'd like to check out my version of mature luffy [link]
it's not as good as yours, though

This is great! Love how sophisticated you made them look in those outfits. Damn, Luffy looks like a young Tony Montana.
Can't believe this was done with water colour, the colours are so clean. Awesome work.

irenukia In reply to surthur [2008-03-31 20:22:00 +0000 UTC]

Thank you It's a Fude Brush-Pen, but any brush pen that serves for writing chinese/jap calligraphy would give a similar effect (I guess!)

Wow. I love Nami dress. The wrinkles are very interesting, I'm sure they were hard to do. Also, I really like Luffy's hair. Oh, and the way you made it look like an old picture is good too.

OMG o.O LUFFY AND NAMI look so awesome here. x.x I can't do folds to save my life xo!!!

The folds on the dress are so good and same with the clothes. Shading and everything.

Um I have to say Nami face expression failed a bit. but Luffy is okay. ((A lil bit more controlled but who knowz xD Maybe he is shy~))

Thanks a lot Asami :3 But their faces are so expressionless = fail.

But anyway, hopefully the next one [FrankyxRobin] will be better expression-wise ;}

I like the actual colors, did you do this with regular watercolor paints or watercolor pencils?

irenukia In reply to PaperCrane5 [2008-03-15 21:40:03 +0000 UTC]

Watercolor paints, but the camera changed the colors and then I touched it up with PS ;}

So the colors aren't the same in paper!

LOL I always thought those BEFORE!!AFTER!! were funny XD

But this one doesn't look funny enough. You'd just see a slight change in color, and certain parts in the anatomy that I fixed with dear Photoshoppu!
