Description I got this commission from gaia like 3 months ago! This has been so hard to me xD first of all, I haven't drawn guys for a long time and frankly have forgotten how to draw them, and secondly, my action pose skills are negligible. Found some VERY cool stock photos from and used this [link] Very cool pose.

Still I wish I could have gotten a bit more movement and flying ribbons and things like that in this. I'll try to next time xD

This took me 3 hours?? :/ ??

hey there I dont know your real name so forgive me for calling you sa =x

but hey what i wanted to say is that your skecth is really wonderful, I really like the concept and idea of a ninja here, im not saying this to give false inspiration but to give encouragement =]

i want to say this is a really great peice of work especially after reading what you said about this peice and i beleive you could really do a lot more to it - in a possitive and challenging way =] i think you'd enjoy it but overall it looks really cool and hey youv'e set off a spark in me to design some of my ninha characters and stuff thank you =]

I also wanted to ask how did u feel about uploading a character design to DA? considering all the users out here. this is something im not too keen on but would be gd to get some feedback.

Welldone SA, God bless your designs and skills =]

Faith~ Thank you so much for your thoughtful comments! Usually people just say 'that's great' or 'I love it,' but it's always nice to read about how someone felt about your art in such detail!

I've never thought about what would happen if I uploaded a character design to DA, like if people 'steal' it or use it without my permission. If you have some future plans for your designs, I think you shouldn't upload them, but if your work are just bouts of creativity you'd like to share but not sell, I think you should definitely submit them. Personally I don't think I have created anything I can make a living off of, so I really don't care who does what with it xD

Ah Hey Sa long time no speak lol =]
glad to read your reply ^^ the advice you've just given me here is really inspirational and really wise too, I'm now thinking to be very careful with my designs lol I think I'll just upload random designs rather than ideas for the future.

Am just really glad you were able to give me this information and well all I can say is I thank God for your life and thanks for your response.

Lets stay in contact k =]

Ooh, I love this! The pose and expression look really great; you did a good job capturing both and making it look very natural. I agree with Nel, your digital sketches have that bit of charm and they're always full of life.

To be honest, I like sketching better than doing full coloured pieces too. xD

hehe thanks nel! *hugz* to be honest I enjoy sketching like this the most. Just because I enjoy getting the image down to paper fast. I'm so lazy, if a pic looks like it's gonna take too long I just give up xD

This was for a guy who commissioned me on our shop, but he replied 'thanks, that looks great' lol dunno how I shud interpret it...I'm so paranoid about ppl not liking what I do for them!!

nelesia In reply to sa55y [2007-08-22 18:26:35 +0000 UTC]

I'm pretty paranoid about that too. I can't tell if they really like it or just being polite. Well, I can only tell if I get screams like OMGGGGGG I LOVE ITTTT 8D But I think it does looks great, so he probably really likes it. XD
