Description Already go number 2 with this piece. Again its still not finished so be patient with me!

I lightened Alcuin's hair a little bit more and changed the color of his doublet at the suggestion of someone very important ~^^~ Reminiscent of his outfit he wore during his virgin price auction...I've used pictures of albino people to help me with him...white hair is so frakking hard!

I also did more shading, Aluchan, hopefully its a bit better

I'm still iffy on what I want to color Phedre's clothes, I've had suggestions of red and black and neutral colors. I won't be doing saffron...she wears too much in the first book dammit!

So far...I think I've put 12 hours into this

Please continue to help me out here guys! Your crits mean everything to me!

I would actually suggest dark blues and brown. The way you drew it almost suggests a riding outfit, and I vaguely remember her wearing something with those colors in one of the books. However, it has been a few years since I read them.

I appreciate your input a lot! Sadly, I didn't draw this ~spinizuey did but I will certainly put your advice to use when I pick this up again!

I really like how well you captured them in their youth, and their beauty.

-lesigh-

Over the past three years I have absolutely devoured Carey's books and its SO NICE to see the characters drawn WELL.

They're beautiful character designs... seriously straight out of some great novel. Are they for a book you're writing?

KuroTenshi In reply to Arcer26 [2007-08-13 16:23:19 +0000 UTC]

Actually they're from a series that exists called Kushiel's Legacy, so far it is 5 books long. Its written by Jacqueline Carey. These two are the heroine for the first 3 books, Phedre and her now passed peer, Alcuin. I didn't draw it, I'm just coloring this piece for my friend *spinizuey so send her another kind comment!

You should look it up! I highly recommend it if you enjoy fantasy, intrigue, adventure, romance, and if you don't mind a bit of adult content.

Oh I wish I could take credit for their faces but I can't *spinizuey is the wonderful artist responsible for that. I'm just coloring it with my sorry PS skillz XD

I am really glad that you like Phedre's hair! For I really wanted to focus on her mote and her hair...the artist for the book just makes it look so flat! I think you'd like the series ~^^~
