Description (Commission)

's Emma is really quite fond of Victor

... he's not so sure how he feels about that.

I really wanted to put these two in a situation to inspire good face-making.

~manga-ranga and I have a very different style. Very different. Now, I'm not saying one is better than the other ... at all. We just see the same thing in different ways. And this is why I love her characters so much. They actually challenge me and push my "standard figures" and teach me to try something new. In this case? Snake hair and very dark skin. I remember trying both when I was younger and making a complete mess of things. This gave me a chance to re-visit things I had given up on.

I can also appreciate that ~manga-ranga just lets my style be what it is. She doesn't get bent out of shape if it doesn't look *exactly* like the examples given. I'm true to the visual guides of each character and appreciate their lovely and *ahem* twisted nature enough to not want to change them. I want them to be, in my eyes, what they are in her's ... if that makes any sense.

I really grew to like these two in the process. I wish I had a good story to tell here, but Emma spent most of the time smiling and explaining which snake was which and what interesting habits they had ... while Victor spent his time avoiding said snakes and carefully watching what I was doing.

That eyeball on the hat looks very surprised. And such great details on Victor's jacket.
Victor reminds me of Nightcrawler with those eyes! His expression just kills me. He looks so confused.The snakes are full of personality and I love how curious they are!
Emma looks so charming and I love her bracelet!

Great job. I had to take some time to go roamin through manga-ranga's gallery and get to know these two a little better. (I'm a sucker for gorgons.) Love Emma here (and that bracelet!), love Victor's expression (props on the third eye). That's some pretty intense interdimensional fun over at manga-ranga's gallery.

Aww sweet!! I like the snake hair! and black skin oh the challenge!!!!!! well I must say good on you for accepting it and such! I bet things are looking better with the black skin this time compared to the first?


Always thought... why commission an artist if you want things drawn in such a way to mimic your own style... rather silly but that seems to be the case with some people... sigh...
(by the way Nu, I do love your style! )

You really caught the confused-about-overt-affection face on that guy. Nice.

Black skin is tricky, you did a good job. Any tips/tricks/tutorials you could share?
Nice job on the snakes and clothes, too.

I know I keep repeating myself a lot, but I love these commissions you've done for me and I'm happy you found my characters fun to draw... even if they are a bit twisted

The expression on what appears to be his one working eye is simply priceless. Very well done.
