Description Title translates, "My Soap, Brother."

A new artwork of Skaro and Young Hotara scene that they're bathing together in the river at the dawn. Hotara finds it so fun to look for his soap that Skaro is using, and Skaro, kneeling in the river, joyfully plays with him where the soap is. .
When the soap is found and taken, Skaro then embraces Hotara as he's lost in the funtime

Meh, it looks a little bit "disturbing" artwork when both of them are completely bare in the swamplands, but I believe it really is fine and normal. I don't bite when you just stare at it with little reactions. ^^"

We know soap is invented from following ingredients, animal fat and carbon. Since its discovery, it is added with flowery fragrance and medical herb juices in it.

Characters and art by Kevin B. Gener.

Second Update
From and 's help in correcting flaws like Skaro's arms and Hotara's right hand.

The story sure sounds sweet, but that big guy looks 'bout ready to bite the little guy in half. I guess tis just hard for a human to tell the facial expressions of a lizard. Very nice detail.

Beautiful job, I really like the fireflies added in there.

Though, I don't think it'd matter so much with them being bare since with reptiles, they only show their personal parts when mating.

Hmm, well, although the picture looks a little bit disturbing, I can listen some different opinions, feedback comments and other conversions. ^^ The topic is about the picture itself (and yes, I understand that I ignored your hints about the arm.. and you had given me negative aspects...no offense)

ReptileCynrik In reply to TargonRedDragon [2010-09-09 09:40:44 +0000 UTC]

I shouldn't reply to this... but anyway: Does this mean, that you do NOT correct "negative critique"?? Or at least suggestions, which SOUND "negative" to you?

Pew.

You admit that you ignored my suggestions... okay. But how do you think do I feel right now? When I am trying to help you... writing long comments, looking closely at your works... and then you just ignore it... hmmm. Doesn't feel right, does it?

dracenmarx In reply to ReptileCynrik [2010-09-09 22:16:55 +0000 UTC]

He wanted to say that he has now recognized that he has ignored your correction suggestions. And that your negative aspects were suggestoins and nothing offending. As far as I know, he want to change now.

And look, the arm is now much better

ReptileCynrik [2010-09-08 13:28:39 +0000 UTC]

Positive Aspects:

Background
The background shows a lot of atmosphere, detail and gives us a pretty good impression of a "swamp environment". Pretty well done! But after all, you've had a lot of experience with swampy places.

Colouring of the characters
The character's colouring looks natural and fits to the environment. There are no bright colours, which is good and makes the scene more believable.
You did a few mistakes with the shading here... there are some wrong shades on the characters and most of all, the shades look too "burned". You can do it less strong in some places, but genereally it's okay.


Negative Aspects:

I'm sorry, but... can't you see that Skaro's right hand is "cut off" somehow??

Dear Kevin, when I (not Daniel) have given you the correction text about this picture, I've pointed out very clearly, that the right arm is WRONG!

Skaro's right arm
I know that you wanted to give us the impression that Skaro is touching his own butt here... or at least he seems to scratch his own back with his right hand. This is what you wanted to show, I guess. But it is NOT working this way! If you look at the position of the shoulder, the biceps and the lower arm, you can see that the arm is BESIDE the hips and NOT behind it! His hand is not even "digged up his ass" (sorry for the word)......... his hand is just GONE!
Just have a second closer look: Skaro's right arm cannot be in this position. Er... what is he doing anyway? Was he REALLY supposed to scratch his butt???
Anyway, from the position of the muscles and the limb itself, the hand MUST be next to his body and not behind his body.

BUT I have written this to you some time ago!! And that's why I'm getting a little bit furious now.
I really AM getting tired of helping you now! You know why? Because I write it all down and you always seem not to read it... or you correct only 50% of the flaws.

In your last comment, you wrote: "By the way, I appreciate your another helping, which is still catchy and comprehensive. In this time of improvement, I hope I can make it better next time in newer dragon pictures.

You thank me for my help and want to use the advise to improve yourself... at least YOU say so. But then, you do NOT DO it!! What am I supposed to think about YOU know, hm? This is really ... I don't find any words to describe that. *sighs*

It's unfair to me and it sounds dishonest from you!


Oh... and something completely "picky" and rather funny now:
If they are using soap, don't you think there should be some bubbles or foam in the water.......? *grins*
