Description Well,  my dear watchers and friends, this was my entry for the contest. fav.me/d78hlby
I thought it would take me less time to restore, because it seemed to me less difficult , than  my previous art, and I was SO WRONG! True, it has taken me "only" a week to make it, which is three times faster, than my time, spent on "Eli Shane. The first victory" art. fav.me/d77yg7c , but it wasn't easy at all. Why? There are  two main reasons:
1. Firstly, believe it or not, this is a combination of TWO screenshots instead of just one. Beeker, the water slug or the Aquabeek, is taken from one shot, and Eli Shane is taken from the other one, though there is less than a second period of time between the two screenshots. Still I had to use both of them and "be creative",  if quoting one of the Slugisodes.
2. The second reason, why this scene was hard for me to restore, is because of Eli himself. He has got SO SOFT and SMOOTH  facial features that a single wrong-angled or too pointy line could have ruined him entirely. This is why I was so scared to make any mistake, restoring his absolutely WONDERFUL smile and the entire expression of love and happiness  on his handsome face.

This scene is taken from the episode, called "Dark Water. Deep Water.", and in my opinion, this is THE BEST SHOT IN THE ENTIRE EPISODE! It truly shows, how much Eli is bonded with ALL of his slugs (not just Burpy), whom others consider simply as "the ammo". And this is in fact the main idea of the series, as far as I can see, having watched two seasons out of three. So this moment just ASKED for beeing restored, and I think, it has turned out pretty well.
What is your opinion, dear friends and watchers? Please, comment. Your opinion means a lot to me.

Hello!
Thank you very much for having let me know.
But I haven't got an account on facebook. (maybe I should. )
And as far as I can understand, that person simply added my art  to her collection of  screenshots and other arts from another DA member, familiar to us both.  The person wasn't claiming that the art is theirs. I think, that's all right.  
Besides, my art has got my signature on it, so I assume that I can think of it as a free "advertisement" and "promotion", rather than theft.
But thank you for your concern anyway.

It looks beautiful, and the fact of that it took you less time for doing this drawing is because you're improving and I'm sure this was a harder job because of the two screenshots. 

You caught Eli cute smile just perfectly, maybe the softness and smoothness of his design has something to do with his personality XD
Beeker looks exactly the same, stunning! 
I loved the background as well, the way you put the colors make this seems canon
Again, best of luck, my friend!

Tom-Masons-admirer In reply to CosmicBat [2014-03-08 16:03:54 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much for your kind words, my dear friend.
I am very pleased to hear so many positive words about my work.
And the softness and smoothness of Eli's features is entirelythe credit of the Nerd Corps's artists, who originally had been working on his design.  Though maybe his personality has aomething to do with it too.
And it has taken me less time to make it, because the scene was really easier, than my previous one.  I wouldn't say, I am improving, but lookers-on see more, than players.
So thank you very much again.

I suppose, you like it, huh? Thank you.
I honestly don't know, whether I would be happy, if you had added it to your video, so probably, it is for the best, that I 've made it later.
But thank you for your comment anyway.

I see, you have used them in the exact video, which I haven't watched for a reason. 
Three other your videos are very nice and maybe I wouldn't  mind if you had used my arts in them, but seeing them in your Eli and Elina video is sort of an insult to me.
Besides, don't you find it needed to mention the artists, whose artworks you had used in your video, in the description? Otherwise, it is sort of stealing, don't you think?

 Well, DeviantArt allows editing artist's comments even after the art is submitted. Can't you do the same on Youtube and edit the description to the video?

Please, try. I suppose, it will be fair enough, since not all the arts, which you had used in your video are yours, are they?

Tom-Masons-admirer In reply to JackieWinters [2014-03-08 17:31:38 +0000 UTC]

I am very sorry for being different and for probably being a little rude, but maybe  those "some people" were supporting the friendship between Eli and your OC, this is why they didn't mind you using their arts for your video.  And as I don't support this relationship, I kindly ask you NOT using my arts in your videos, dedicated to that pair, in the future, please.
If you are planning to make just an Eli Shane's Tribute, just like you've done with Trixie, you may use my arts, if you want to, but add my name in the description and the names of other artists, whose artworks you are planning to use. I hope you understand, that this is the RIGHT way of doing things.
Otherwise, you are taking a huge risk of being accused in theft.
