Description This one is for *BrokenPuppet , her character Orphrius

I also love the fact he's a waiter in a small cafΓ©
I really like the clothing as well I'm just such a sucker for collar shirts..


Haha yay I remembered to type the year 07 instead of 06 in my signature Hmm, which reminds me that I need to make a "signature stamp" when I remember..They look so great x3

Character (c)
----

Technical:

Painter 9 for coloring, Photoshop for the rest.
Texture from Mayang.com
Loose refs used for the pose and stairs. (omg, this is rare!)

Aw, I really like this! The colors are really nicely done, and the folds are lovely. I think his eyes are so pretty. I just really really really like this.

Looks awesome, you're so talented. I love how Orphrius is to the right of the picture because I know I personally have a tendency to focus to the left first, so it really makes me look at the entire picture instead of fixating on one side.

The color choice is great as always, I love how earthy the colors are, the yellow really pops in contrast with the browns. The texture on the wall looks really nice too, and the light coming from the top of the stairs. You really think about every part of the picture rather than concentrating in one area and forgetting about the rest.

Thank you!
I'm sometimes a bit afraid that I use too much earthy tones..But I just really love using them! I also try to think about everything in the picture and to see it as a whole The picture just won't work if only just one part is done well.

Yay! Another wonderful peice of work! I love it. I love the outfit and the coloring too. And I love the steps because I have such a hard time drawing steps. Repetitive and too 3D for me. X-x But your steps are awesome. And the guy on the steps is awesome looking too.
Any way! ^^ Keep it up.

this is great! very dark... sends a vibe of mistery...nice use of colors to bring that feeling.
...reminds me of some dark detective story....to add more drama to the feeling only a cigarrete would enhance what i just said XDD
great work

This is awesome! The lighting is amazing, and the way the boy is colored makes him stand out from the background, but also look like he was just meant to be there! And the color choice is great ^^
And the grunge look on the background is great, as is the perspective on the stairs, (so hard to draw >.< their drawn very very well~ I always love the detail and attention you put into your backgrounds!

Yeah, backgrounds really make the picture look more detailed, so it's good to plan them well too. I still need lots of practise, but I'll keep practising

wow! i love the lighting! ur art is always beautiful! even though im not good at art myself, ill give you some advice; the forehead is a bit too long, and the left leg seems like it can do with a little more lighting. yet other than that, this is beautiful! great job!

Hmm..I'm not sure how long time it took, but maybe around one week (which means I spent a couple of hours each day working with this piece.)
