''I have something to say to him, and none of them are 'Goddess Bless''' ~ Numair, Wolf-Speaker by Tamora Pierce

sooooo...
this is the first picture of Numair's new design... lol sort of
I don't know, he just kindof came out while I was doodling in OC...
I was re-reading the Immortals Quartet and thought that I hadn't drawn anything yet from Daine's story, so out came Numair!
(Why not Daine?...
Because I like to make my life hard by picking a character I had no personal image for and spending hours upon hours changing that fact!)
So this is also a trial run for his design..
lol funny how the one character you want to draw correctly always seems to be the hardest....
:: points to Neal :: I include you in this!

gah, why do I always write novels in these comments -__-;
Numair (c) Tamora Pierce

~Also there is another version in my Scraps, I couldn't choose which one to put up, so I'm putting both up, and you get to decide! ~

LOL when you're a black robe mage, of course you turn red when you're angry. Just one of those tweaks of nature.

I think you succeeded in making me love Numair. (George from Lioness is my favorite)
I love the green symbols on his collar and sleeve. Very impressive work.

I read all of Lioness and most of WildMagic.
Daine's series is rather hard to find.
I've read almost all of Tamora Peirce's books except for The Circle opens, i think... it's hard to remember...

GlobieRSquash In reply to whitelyte [2009-03-23 16:46:35 +0000 UTC]

Hmmmm.... I don't think I've heard of Juliet Mariller or Robin McKinley

Dragons+Napolean=WIN!!! (I'll have to find Naomi Novik's work)

I like scifi too but I don't think I know Kelley Armstrong or Laurell K. Hamilton. I need to read more!!!! *sigh* so many books so little time...

Which is good.

That settles it. When we make these books into a movie, we cast Antonio as Numair. Yup yup yup!

wow um THIS IS AWESOME!
you successfully made numair look like the shmexy beast he is.
i dont know the purpose of the red shading but it makes for a really awesome effect.

lol he is a shmexy beast... isn't he?
Um, well, we'll ignore the response that I would make saying that the reason that the lines are red is because I was too lazy to make them black and focus more on the whole "mood" of the piece was anger and the red outline, I hoped, would emphasized this.
Also, at first, I wanted to go for a stylized look, such which is found in my scraps, but ended up having too much fun with actually coloring him.
