Description Subtitled 'All Chains and Nipple Clamps'... I have no excuse - I wuz bored... (Saturday TV is balls!)

She's a drow veteran (probably a mercenary)... nowt else to say, really! No reference used, all from the old imagination. Dunno how I'm going to colour this one - I might ink her, not sure. She's a bit too fiddly to be fart arsing around with coloured pencils, that's for sure...

Please full view.

EDIT: Is DA doing its weird 'no! I forbid you from viewing anything!' thing for other people, too?

EDIT 2: heh heh, I can see it now! Hello, scary drow lady...

Awesome costume design...and EXPRESSION! Yay, you're doing more expressions now! I can see how this would be a bitch to color...I do hope to see it in color though, because your coloring is blowing me away lately.

Expressions! They're, uh, kind of cool... _O:

I'm nearly done inking - I've added in some 'playmates' (of the Undead, Gibbering Mouther and Illithid kind) in the back ground... this is turning out to be a major project, but one that's LOADS of fun!

Thanks, darlin'!

OoOo, playmates...fun ones too! I don't think I've ever seen you draw an Illithid before! Cool!

*is still trying to get used to this new DevArt*

Illithid are fun to draw, as I have found out... They loo9k like Cthulhu. I Love Cthulhu! It's a match made in Underdark Heaven...

Ahh, new Coke DA... as *hoodedman put it earlier: 'it's a bit lumpy.

Hope those lumps get ironed out soon, they're kind of irritating...

Although maybe that should read 'lack of costume'...

Aww, thank you!

When I first joined DA, I was crap - and I mean crap with a capital 'C'. I'm kind of fighting my way through mediocre right now - when I'm rivalling Todd Lockwood (heh, yeah, like that would happen...) then I'll be happy!

All the improvements I've made are simply through practising and asking for crits... be fearless! Even if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter. I probably only upload about 20% of everything I draw - most of it is tripey sketches.

Her facial expression is really good; very drow-ish. Nice spider earring, as well.

scary drow lady is right! *hides beneath bed covers ... manages a peak for the chains and nipple clamps, and then goes back to hiding. From underneath the covers* Well from what I saw, it looks great. I love the menacing look on her face, and her costume design (pigness aside) is actually very cool. Plus I'm totally digging the sword and eye patch. Woot!! I do hope you color this one ^_^

Mistresselysia In reply to miserythedrow [2006-08-07 19:08:42 +0000 UTC]

:hug; Thanks!

I had a whole lotta fun designing her. I'm inking right now - I've added lots to it (enemies etc.), so it's turning out to be quite an ambitious project! Going to have a go at colouring later... _O:

I cant wait to see it!! I'll be waiting on the deviation notice ^_^ Is it going to be like a fight scene or something with all the enemies? Kinda like a showdown or is it like something else?

Wow, she would NOT want to get those chains tangled with someone's sword!...

Seriously though she looks threatening, and I love the design of her sword, good work again!

Yeham I know... Practicality has never been a drow strongpoint!

Thank you! I've been playing around with facial expressions today... they're, er, kind of fun...

I think the theory is that as long as it's made of adamantine then it's damn good armor...

Well she does look properly angry and 'warrior like' so you certainly got her facial right.

Boy that sounded dodgy... :whistle:
