Description This is the first bit of Inception fanart, created for my friend as a belated birthday present. It is a RECIPROCAL present, which means that I GET A FIC BASED OFF OF THIS PICTURE.

I'm excited.

It's Arthur and Eames, doing their thing. Is this their first meeting? Is it after the plot of the movie? I tried to make Arthur look a little more playful than he is for most of the movie, so hopefully it looks at least DIFFERENT. Goes without saying that I hope the characters look like themselves.

I saw Inception a couple of weeks ago and was blinded by the suits, as in it could have been a movie about men raiding a Dollar Tree for all of its candy and I would still have sat there happily for three hours, watching the tailored suits go back and forth.

Yeah, I realize I have a thing.

Anyway, if you guys have crits feel free to let me know. I worked hard on it so I'd be happy to learn my blind/weak spots in here. I tried to make a background work but in the end I liked it better just with the grey. Ah well.

Edit: THIS IS THE FIC SHE WROTE OMG GO READ IT BECAUSE IT IS AWESOME [link]

Oh ps, because you said you wanted a crit : Keep in mind I do enjoy this piece !
Their clothing is a little 2D.. with the exception of Arthur's shirt. Their faces have lots of detail and fantastic shading/lighting/shape, whereas the vest and shirt do not. Real clothing flows and folds, creates shadows.. you know ? I hope this helps, and sorry for my double commentary !

Thanks for the comments (both of them)! I do appreciate the crit, I definitely have troubles with lighting sometimes and that was pretty much what I did last so that makes sense.. thanks!!

I honestly have no idea why this does not have more favs. It looks fantastic ! I cant even pick one single thing that I like most ... it's the picture as a whole that I enjoy.

I love it !

Your commentary made me giggle. Because I sympathize.

Lovely work, dahling~

SUITS. YES.

Eames looks like himself but I think Arthur is a little off? BUT THAT'S OKAY BECAUSE HE'S WEARING A VEST AND HNNNNNG VESTS <3

zandan In reply to LaughingAstarael [2010-08-21 02:21:04 +0000 UTC]

MMMMN SUITS.

Yeah I think they're both slightly off in ways I couldn't quite figure out how to fix but VESTS MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER SO THERE. X3

GOD YES UNGH.

I dunno, getting stylized likenesses is way hard. You did really well with Eames! And Arthur's really close, just... augh, it's so frustrating when there's like one line a millimeter off and it changes everything, and I have a feeling that's the case here?

VESTS

Mmmmmmmnnn suiiitsss....

Yeahhh I know what you mean. Umm. It's possible I made Arthur look more asian than he actually is, seeing as I am convinced (CONVINCED) that JGL is part-asian and just doesn't know it. AUGH. oh well.

I recognized the characters!
Also I would definitely see a movie about guys in suits raiding a Dollar Tree for its candy.

You draw really beautiful hands. Also beautiful men. Also I like the soft coloring.

Yay! I am glad that you did, and that you like my movie idea. Maybe it will happen one day (I guess it's more like Ocean's Eleven: Dollar Tree).

Thank you! I have a lot of trouble in the hand department just sketch-wise so I've been trying to work on that more.

Eames looks a little off I don't know what it is though. >3<
I think it is the nose or lips.
BUT Arthur looks amaaazing. He looks just like JGL in my opinion.
Good job.(:

zandan In reply to BrokenLove04 [2010-08-17 01:23:29 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I agree. I had more trouble with Eames, but hopefully that'll work out better next time...thanks for the input!

and thank you for the comment and the fave! :3 I did work on getting them to look right so I'm glad you think that Arthur looks like JGL! X3

No problem.
&Next time?
More Arthur/Eames? o:
Or even more Inception art, aha?

I really like this piece and it's obvious that you spent time on this(:

Haha yeah, well this is just one of two Arthur/Eames pieces that I'm doing for my friend for her birthday. I've done some doodles already that may get posted in my scraps eventually, but I'll probably be posting at least one more bit of fanart on here if I can ever decide what to draw. x3

thankyouu.
