Description Gaia always manages to inspire me to draw~ I can't resist all the items~~~ >w<

So here are DV-chan and Catharyn in their halloween outfits! This year's gaia event was fun with all the different things you could be~ DV-chan is a dark elf and Catharyn is a vampire. I was going to have Syeon Ru as a zombie but then I found out I didn't really want any of those items so he's a vampire now which suits him better anyway :3 *babbling*

I know this pic is late for Halloween by quite a while. xD;; I actually worked hard on it to get it done not long after halloween and it was drawn and coloured all in less than a week which is amazing for me but then I'm really lazy when it comes to getting things scanned and on the internet =_=;;;

I got to play with the new pack of prismacolour markers I got for my birthday here, they're fun~~~ and it turned out good so I'm happy~~ xDD




(my brain melted at the thought of a title for this. I think Nightwish is the name of the band my friend likes but it was all I could think of that wasn't horribly cheesy x_0;; )

Wow! What an amazing picture! You really have great control of Prismacolors, and the texture of the paper really compliments the detailing that you did! What kind of paper did you use? I'm aware it's probably thicker than the average paper, but is it watercolour? There's such minimal bleeding and the piece is GREAT! The entire picture has a dark aura, but at the same time, it's sexy and fun! I could go on and on, but, I'll just fave it.

Awesome job! I bet I saw YOU selling at Ai-Kon.

Vampires with cat ears...reminds me of MoonPhase...(Awesome anime by the way)

Anyways, the color scheme and blending is beyond amazing. The intense detail of the hair and clothing just makes it almost like you can touch it and feel texture. Just Wow.

Thank you for the compliments on the texture, I love my pens and when I use them I often end up going over the top on the detailing~ xD;;

Awesome job on the coloring. I really enjoy the blue skin, it came out really nice (and not streaky). Did you use markers for the whole thing?

What kind of paper do you use? I have some prismas myself. But i seem to still streak. Maybe youve got more skillz at markers than i do

Thank you~ X3
If I remember correctly I think I used some sort of Staedtler pen for the thicker parts and a 0.05 copic pen for the fine lines (I highly recommend the 0.05!! Its so much fun to use and it makes everything look so much more refined!! : DDD )

Sakebi-chan In reply to Rokuri [2008-11-26 13:42:02 +0000 UTC]

I love the combination of the thick and fine lines though :3 0.05 doesn't look refined if there are no other lines to compare it with xD

Very pretty, and yes Nightwish is a band a darn awsome one at that. But I have a question, I've heard about them several times but I don't know what they are......What are prismacolour markers??? if you don't mind me asking, I'm kind of realativly new to the whole coloring my pics thing, I was always afraid to for fear I'd make it look worse than it already was. But now I'm trying to make good art to put on here and I only know of regular markers and colored pencils and Photoshop (even thought I want it) is alot out of my price range. Whoops I didn't mean to bable for that long sorry .

Rokuri In reply to Juliett-Dark-Angel [2008-11-25 02:08:20 +0000 UTC]

yeah, colouring is a big step to take with a picture, I really hate it a lot of the time xD;; I find scanning the lineart or whatever before doing anything helps cause then you still kinda have it even if you mess up with the colours

Prismacolors are kinda like normal markers except that they're kinda expensive, there are many more colours to choose from and they blend very nicely (not quite as nicely as Copic markers I hear but those are even more expensive)
Photoshop is a good program for colouring and drawing but a lot of people these days seem to be using cheaper/free/other programs that seem to work just as well. Painter is another program I hear about a lot but I don't really know a lot about computer colouring so I can't tell you anything else really xD;;;
I say if you're still experimenting, find a nice pack of inexpensive markers and some pencil crayons. Play with those and see what you like before you commit too much to any one medium

Juliett-Dark-Angel In reply to Rokuri [2008-11-25 10:32:49 +0000 UTC]

Wow thanks! thats alot of help, I'm going to try and get a program called Manga Studio Debut 4 it's cheap but it does just about all or just as well as photoshop. I'll have to try blending. I usualy can't scan my stuf I have a really cheap printer and every little smudge shows thats why I don't have very much art on here. Theres shadows that arent' drawn on there and all sorts of stuuf so I think I'm going to start taking pictures of my art with my camera and see if it doesn't look better then. I hope I will build up the courage to color and shade and all sorts of fancy stuff to my drawings. Thanks again, you were so much help!!!

I wish i had some Prisma Markers but i would want one of the bigger sets like 120? XD;;

But i used Sharpies and Mark it Bics <3 They work really good for me. but i need to gety new ones for the ones that run out! XD

Rokuri In reply to Shampoo-chan13 [2008-11-25 16:11:53 +0000 UTC]

Thats something I like about ones like prismacolours, that you can get individual colours instead of a whole new pack when you run out of one or two My pack has 24 or so but I'm buying the individual ones that I need for inbetween stuff

Shampoo-chan13 In reply to Rokuri [2008-11-26 05:33:13 +0000 UTC]

i can buy some of them one by one. ((Most blue and red-yellow.)) in fine point XD;;
But I always forget to get them, and money too 0-0"
How many of them do you have now??

I think I have about 26 or so prismacolours now Ooo~ Fine point is nice~~~ My favourites are any markers that give you the option of thick and thin points. More and more markers seem to be doing that these days which makes me happy~

Same here....*sighs* bUT ARTISTS KNOW HOW TO HAVE FUN! >3
*Dangit caps lock!!*

Wow only 26 colors!! O_O;; XD;; I like more colors to work with but getting only 12 colors is not enough!!
So the marker has two ends? i would sometimes forget to put the cap back on one XD;;
I want to try Copics one of these days when i win the lotto! XD;;
How do you like the Prismacolors markers? How do they handle? i've been looking at them for a while ^=^" One of the sets, but with more colors....come on baby A SALE! >D

Rokuri In reply to Shampoo-chan13 [2008-11-29 18:01:59 +0000 UTC]

haha I found my prismacolors on sale, thats why I got them xD; I like them very much! They blend so nicely, even the black marker doesn't leave streaks like I'm used to it doing in other sets Usually I have to edit the black in photoshop after they're scanned so it doesn't look blotchy but on this pic I didn't have to do much at all which makes me happy
More colours are nice definately but I like playing with a smaller set before I choose which ones to get more of personally~

Shampoo-chan13 In reply to Rokuri [2008-12-01 05:42:51 +0000 UTC]

Thats so Awesome! and do they dry fast? so if you wanted to erase something on it or your hand goes over it does it streak? ((i know a better word but curses at spelling))
I have to go stare at it some more XP I know i had a 69 color pencil set before i decided to go up in numbers (a 120 set) i think XP
I found out i usually used blue, green, skin colors, and black alot XD;;
For the sharpies its the same but with light blue and black. XP

Rokuri In reply to Shampoo-chan13 [2008-12-02 02:07:56 +0000 UTC]

lol stare as much as you want! xD
I haven't done any erasing on it I don't think but so far I haven't had any times when I streak it with my hand or anything since the paper absorbs it pretty quickly
Oh wow! 120 in a set? Thats huge! I think my pencil crayons are a 64 set or something. They don't get used too much these days sincce they're so slow working with them~

Shampoo-chan13 In reply to Rokuri [2008-12-05 20:56:27 +0000 UTC]

OHHies~! I will! XD;; Reallies? I have to use a pencil and then ink it and then color...? do you skip those steps??
And i tired to color with my crayons and it was very slow too 0-0" and it takes alot of crayon too to fill in a big piece.
But the 120 marker set is like a little dream for me to get them XD;; I should wish for them for xmas <3
What are you wishing for Xmas??

Rokuri In reply to Shampoo-chan13 [2008-12-06 05:07:00 +0000 UTC]

lol no no I pencil and ink then colour!! I thought you meant using pencil over the marker again lol
After using markers for a while, it is pretty surprising to go back to pencil crayons and see how loooong it takes xD; 120 markers are a great dream~~~ *.*
For christmas I'd love to have a new anime I want to be released. I'll have to wait for february for that though~~ =w=;
