Description Creature-Exchange for I3-byUsagi I had a ton of fun drawing this guy for the Halloween exchange! I need practice with humanoids and he was a fun one to work with! I hope you like it I3-byUsagi, and happy Halloween!!


1 - What parts of your prompt were written well and easy to understand? Was there anything the writer of the prompt could improve on or include next time they create a prompt?
They wanted goth, high status, Bela Lugosi inspired fashion for him. I used the old Dracula costume idea and build upon it with Victorian Gothic style. It's a style I really love, but rarely draw!

2 - Please explain how you interpreted the prompt to create your design. Which features did you use? Did you stick to the chosen palette or make changes to it? Does the design you created have any special abilities or quirks?
I liked the dress up idea, but wasn't sure what they meant by being allowed to make him a traditional Halloween monster as well? I think it was several ideas one can choose from. I hope I got that right XD I stuck pretty hard to the pallet provided, it had several colours I use in designs for myself, so they were easy to match up. Just added some darker tones where needed. The ability and quirks are up to the character owner since he's pre-existing.

I have to say I'm loving the variety of colours you chose from my palette for his outfit! It doesn't stick to just his traditional blue attire and I love that you perfectly incorporated them with each article of clothing. I adore that form fitting overcoat and the way that cape falls so elegantly around him. I'm also very much in love with the way you draw him- so elegant and sassy! He's beautiful and I'm ashamed to admit this but I'm really fond of what you did with his hips hehe. You did a really good job interpreting the prompt and I'm so excited you took it in the vampire direction. I'm sorry about the confusion with the traditional Halloween monster part- I meant it more like you could play around with altering his body as well and not just the clothing (since it was originally just intended as a Halloween fashion design prompt). Either way I think it's so perfect what you did here and I love this beyond words.

I actually worked in every colour. I had no clue what to do with the green, so it became the BG.  I'm very happy you like it, I was a bit nervous since I loved your gallery and couldn't watch at the time! I hoped I could draw something to your liking!

And for that I'm very grateful because even those all those colours were muted and I loved them all I wasn't expecting all of them to be woven so perfectly into one design/picture. Aw, I'm flattered! I assure you you've created something well beyond my liking- I love it!

You picked a pallet I would have picked for myself, haha! I love muted and rather muddied colours. It makes my day you really liked the pic!
