Emotions , they can build us up and erode us. Change us from who we are and even who we want to be into something else, and here it looks beautiful.

Just thought you should know this piece is stunning. The colors you chose to focus on are really fantastic! As a writer, I'm always looking for tales to drag away from the pictures I come across. This one is VERY inspiring!

ooohhohhooooohooo DAT HAIR. Look at dem gorgeous locks!!  
Sorry I'm so late on complimenting this beautiful piece of yours but it does look rather amazing. I love all the subtle details like on the armor and the water it's just so pretty. And Garik's shirt, girl how did you do that it looks fricking real? Amazing

Thank you bae! 
well at first i tried to do it by guessing, after three days of effing around and being disgusted with the results I decided to swallow my pride and find a reference....

you have no idea how R rated it is to look up "wet black shirt" but I finally found one

thank you for everything I spent forever on this one

xD pffff xD that's great. I feel like I have to sit away in my room to actually find good references or fear being judged for the life of me haha. 
It does look quite beautiful
References are so hard to come by, at least good ones. XD

NIKEwings In reply to GrimmPrime [2014-04-25 05:09:10 +0000 UTC]

references are a biotch to find.... the secret is to save ones that look like things you need help drawing and understanding in advance... >_>

thank youuuu <3

You're welcome

looool XD

well I was going to suggest several folders, separated by painting ref, texture ref, line art ref, sketching ref, eye's ref, whatever but it sounds like you are too far down the rabbit hole XD

Though I do see some anatomical and compositional issues, I really love the emotion in the piece. You get a real sense of the male's depth of feeling for the girl. My only real complaint is that she seems to be....less into it than he is. But that may be part of the story.

Yes she is not ecstatic about what he has just said. They both nearly drowned and he nearly lost his self control, from his point of view it's clearly taboo for them to be together because of -its secret- so now he is fighting his clear (hopefully clear) feelings for her and stressing the fact that "they are friends" to stay honorable and to not put her in a situation he couldn't bring himself to put her in. He is so important to her that she has put on her best face so that he can say it. She should look sympathetic and pained yet happy they are alive.

First off, I'd like to say that I'm envious of your skill with lighting and ability to draw hands.


second, this pic is beautifully sweet. Actually, more bittersweet with how their relationship has to be. From what little I've seen of their friend-only relationship, it's very lovely.


P.S. your ability to draw material folds is maddening and beautiful

NIKEwings In reply to Alpine-Dragon-Queen [2014-02-19 04:05:51 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much dear ;u; I actually think hands and lighting is my weakest ability so I'm stoked that you love them!!!  


It's definitely all of those sweets that I was hoping to convey so I'm really happy it comes across as Awww *u* ahhhh o.o awww ;n; I definitely want him to appear tormented but ultimately choosing to not give in to temptation and her to be kind and accepting because she understands and knows more than he thinks.


I tried the folds like 7 different ways and spent a whole day on them so yeah I JUST learned folds, and anything in Black is HARD XD Black hair! Black clothes! Black skin! It's a whole other ball game X3!!!
