Description So yah, here it is! The fully colored image! C:

It's Nick taking a hit from a Smoker that was originally targeting Ellis, hence the title "white knight". Although, maybe I should have called it "not-so-white knight"? LOLOLOLOLOLOL SORRY NICK. Guess you're just gonna have to buy another $10,000 suit. :T



I've been getting into the Nellis fandom as of late. I even made a fan video using the LITTLE footage there is from the promos:

While I absolutely ADORE Zoey X Ellis, the Nellisness I've seen around here has inevitably sucked me into its clutches. Oh my! Is that a hickie on Nick's neck? I wonder who gave him that?
yay

Lazy background is lazy. It's mainly a bunch of industrial-looking brushes. Credit goes to the person who made them... don't remember who they are.

Here's the WIP line art from before: [link]

"Oh my! Is that a hickie on Nick's neck? I wonder who gave him that?"
That's always been there, even before he met up with the survivors. Unless you're really gonna tell me you think Ellis gave him the hickie before they even knew each other's names.

He also has lipstick on his suit collar, on the same side as the hicky.

Lol calm down. I know he has a hickey there in the game. I was making a joke to go with the whole nellis aspect. :T

Lol bronies. I have one or two guy friends who are closeted bronies, but I don't see them much. Otherwise, I haven't really met any or know much about how they are.

Rivenmist [2011-11-04 21:55:30 +0000 UTC]

Wow, this is a really fun piece!

I love how this is colored, you did a really good job.

..though, the only thing I have a problem with is Ellis's left arm. It seems to be shorter then the other, and it might be better if it went downwards more like the other arm. I think it would look more natural, but that's just my suggestion.

Good job on the rest though!

MidoriEyes In reply to Rivenmist [2011-11-05 02:15:12 +0000 UTC]

His right arm is what bugs me. :\ It's too long. The left arm is the length it should be, I think.

But yeah. Thank you! C:

Rivenmist In reply to MidoriEyes [2011-11-05 16:00:49 +0000 UTC]

Oh. His left, my right, my left, his right... That's what I meant?
lol, i don't even know. XD

Though, now that I'm up again, both arms could use a bit of adjustments.

But it's not noticible enough to bug everyone, cause the focus is Nick, so that just nautrally drags the eye away from Ellis.

lol, the idea is really cute though.

Thanks! C: I'm glad you still like it! I didn't want to do anything that looked TOO Nellis and more just like a badass tribute to Nick and Ellis.

Pretty much how I see Nick....I swear the bots are even like this.
Ellis= dies like an idiot EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
Nick= saves MY ass never mind Ellis'......
Even my brother noticed it when we played co-op.

In my game it's Coach who does that. ALWAYS.

Haha....Rochelle is alright, but yeah, Coach tends to be an idiot too. >:/
Except in co-op when my bro is Coach, then he's an epic bad-ass.

Wooo! Go Nick! The Nellisness sucked me in too, but I still see them as a... bromance, you might say.

Hnnnnnnnnngh. I thought the sketch was good, the final product is @0@;;

Where to start with this? I mean like, the blood/zombie-juice splatters are phenominal, Nick's coat is a work of art all on its own. Cuz like, it's dirty all over but it's dirtiest in the places you'd expect... the cuffs and elbows and such. Your use of texturing has me in a tizzy, from Nick's scruff to the smoker's tongue to that baseball bat (holy hell) to the patch on El's hat (it really looks raised up-- how u do that??). I guess I have to mention the shading too because folds are a bitch, but not only that, you seem to have the panes of the face down too... and you're mixing hard and soft shadows and yeah. Basically awesome, okay?

And of course all the things I said about the lineart still hold true, expressions/poses/attention to detail are all fab. c:

Yer so sweet~! Since the rest of my L4D fan art will probably NOT be as extravagant as this, I figured I should give it my all on this one. XD There's no way I could color my pictures like this ALL the time. I don't know how some people do it!

OH MY LORD YES. I seriously cannot express how perfect this is. Nick's face, how you can literally see him saying the words. Ellis' shocked li'l mouth. XD The little bruises and cuts. The trickle of blood at the edge of Nick's mouth. Nick's backstretched hand. His whole frame.. haaawtawt >u> There's something very leanly attractive about Nick, and I love when people do it well. XDD

Amazing.
