Description Yes, it IS Artemis Fowl, the lovely protagonist and title character of that series of books that I hate. I dunno, I know they have a lot of fans but they're boring. I remember in sixth grade the teacher was reading the book aloud to us and I kept falling asleep. They just bore me. And I don't like the main character. He bores me. I just don't find any of the characters interesting, hence the book can rot on my bookshelf for all I care.

On a more technical side this was a total ASS to draw. Photoshop, not surprisingly, kept screwing up on me, but this time it was not lack of pressure sensitivity, it was too much. The damn thing would kept drawing even when I lifted my pen up from the tablet to hover! ARGH! That's why the lineart is so sloppy and the highlights in the hair are so terrible looking and there's stray lines everywhere. DAMN YOU PHOTOSHOP. *insert that one knifing emoticon here*

Well, this was a fun practice in digital screentones.

I like your drawing of Arty, but honestly why would you draw and post a pic. of a character you don't like. To be honest, saying it can rot on your bookshelf for all you care is going a little too far. But you are entitled to your opinion.

He's so cute ^^
...Even though he does not look like the Artemis I have imagined xD
I don't think the books are boring, though, I love them.

..But why do you draw something that you hate? o.O

I like Artemis, 'cause smart guys are cool. Guys that can't spell drive me crazy. Those and the ones that brag about failing some class. Anyways, sometimes the books get boring, but Colfer has an interesting sense of humor. We need more authors like him.

Give him a spiky...thing on top of his hair and he could be Ren Tao.

Isn't that spiky thing a shark fin? 'Cause that's what I always thought it was.

Was it?

I just thought that he had major bedhead problems that were exploited in the over-large-ness of anime styled hair.

Hmm...maybe.
Either that or that spike is just a really, really big cowlick.
