Description Not very recent... I've hesitated in uploading it because (as usual) the proportions are off... and... this just generally disturbs me in a "stare into the abyss and the abyss stares into you" way.... but that's kinda what I like about it as well. Ughhh...

It's basically an overwrought doodle that kept getting worked upon. I can't seem to do anymore but crits are welcome nevertheless!

OH - MY - GOD !!!!!!!!!!!!

Does that state it all like, whats going on in my head when I saw this. .... ???? *blinks blinks*

I mean like, DAMN YAAR! CHAA GAEE HOO!

Seriously this really blew me away. You talk about propertion, even though I noticed you are getting really good at it, blah yaar, the ultimate feeling, intensity and passion you put into this says it's just plane perfection. The eyes. They killed me just there. The whole contour. Like a heated up quiet vocalno with so much to explode but keeping it in for the greater good....

Sorry I'm blabbing but simply can't contain my excitment.

FAV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love your so called 'blabbing'
For a painting/drawing to be successful it's more important for me to get the 'mood' or 'feeling' across than technical perfection me thinks... So thank you sooo much

The yellow color on his forehead make him look like he has run into something.

merriya In reply to hinitsu [2010-04-15 18:52:37 +0000 UTC]

Yay! Fluffy hair

The yellow, I tried removing it because it didn't make sense, but when I did it looked even more weird. I'll try doing something about that when I'm more brave. thanks again for pointing that out ^__^

You have to be a perfectionist to consider that this picture is "off"

I can definitely tell that you did it, and I love that! Keep it up, foreverrrr!

I am happily blind to all proportions today^^ I love it, and the abyss-staring-back-effect is maybe the absolutely best part of it
Also I didn't know there were that many different shades of red <3

merriya In reply to theOvercoat [2010-03-20 22:24:42 +0000 UTC]

Hehe I'm happy to hear it has that effect on you too, I was starting to think I'd just stared at it too long. And I guess it's always more important to get the message/concept/feel of the pic across than trying to achieve technical perfection 8D~

theOvercoat In reply to merriya [2010-03-22 07:17:08 +0000 UTC]

It's definitely the kind of image one can stare at for too long Might not be healthy. But it's nice 8)

I already wanted to ask where your ava is from .
I think it looks great, love those highlights and small details. Maybe the forehead above that dark eye looks a bit strange, because the light source suggests that it could be iluminated, but that is on purpose I guess.

merriya In reply to isolde [2010-03-19 23:08:36 +0000 UTC]

Thank you

Yep one half of the face was darkened like that on purpose. but it has a sharp edge, the dark area... maybe I should soften it... hmmm...

Your awesomeness makes me sad! Though..now I know where thos lovely lips in your avatar came from @,@

I'd actually like to see a bit more of a gleam in the shadow-side eye. Eyes staring out from darkness always weirds me out.
And it would be awesome here.
