Description Another mess around in photoshop, this time trying to get spooky lighting effects. Our subject is Fletcher from my book, the vampire who knows how good looking he is and isn't afraid to use his good looks on unsuspecting women - usually they just hit him though and run away. Heh, just kidding, no he's a bit smarmy and is one of those good guys who used to be bad, but as you can see, he's proud to be working for The Seventh Circle now and wears his funky pin bage proudly.

Random fact: Flecther used to be called Fletcher Cole and had a bit of a strange personality, so I extracted his Cole part and turned them into two different characters, so now there's James Flecther, the vampire and as he says 'Yeah, I know, James isn't very vampirey, is it?' and Aiden Cole, a downright sadistic vampire hunter (in book 2) who was once Flecthers best friend, the two having one helluva lot of history...but you'll have to wait for the second book for that to all be revealed.
Bizarre huh?

Hmmmm....not sure. There is a whole chapter in bk 2...ch8 I think where you do get told of his whole backstory adn how he became the smark alec vampire he is and also why he serves Laughlan...as well as how he's related to another character who happens along later!

There is a glint of sleaze in his expression, I see. He is indeed quite a looker, I'll give him that. Love those kind of sunken eyes--it's a nice effect.

Oh he thinks he's 'it' even though he is dead. One of those vampires that thinks he can get any woman to bend to his will- most of the time he just gets slapped though...

Oh that's such a gorgeous portrait, thanks for pointing me to it! I have to say I prefer this one to the cute version I have problems with cute, I'm mildly allergic!
I love the movement in his hair and I am so admiring of the shading on his skin.

He's a great vampire to write for as well, he's so acid every line is amusing, espeiclaly when not as many women fancy him as he believes...

He looks cool, a little bored maybe though . . . or just thoughtful. I'm not sure I would want to know about what though, hehe.

Very nicely done. Good job on the lighting and shading. Much approval.

I'll have to check out this book of which you speak.

ZoeStead In reply to montravont [2006-09-15 17:25:16 +0000 UTC]

Well, it would be great if you did
I just read some of your writing on your DA page, it's good, but then I do like pretty much anything vampy lol. If you ever want me to have a look over and critique it, edit or whatnot, feel free. I enjoy reading and don't mind lending a hand to a fellow writer

montravont In reply to ZoeStead [2006-09-15 17:32:58 +0000 UTC]

By all means. I would greatly enjoy a critique from some one who isn't just trying to stroke my ego. The only one I really "care" about at the time is The Life Of Henry short. The others, if you're really really bored, I wouldn't mind having checked out but, aren't really a main concern at the moment.

What's the name of your book again and when is it due out?

If you have msn do you want to talk?

Other than that, my book's called The Amulet of Vichalace - Book 1 of The Darkley Chronicles and should be out in UK for Xmas/New Year - but it will be available on Amazon too. I do have a worldwide contract, but I dunno much about my publishers distribution policy in America lol!

I'm writing Book 2 - The Vampire's Daughter, at the moment, and after that, Book 3 - The Legacy of Everis...Book 4 - the final one I haven't even contemplated yet, despite knowing how I want it to end heh!

I was wandering, would you be interested in a calaberation? (sorry
for the spelling) I'd like to color one of your linearts sometime..... just for fun.

ZoeStead In reply to Wazaga [2006-09-14 17:02:52 +0000 UTC]

Sure, that'd be cool. Is there anything in particular you would like me to draw for you to colour? I mean...apart from the obvious.

Wazaga In reply to ZoeStead [2006-09-15 10:17:38 +0000 UTC]

like me to color anything at all.

Oh I have that picture for you...I just inked it. What email do you want me to send it to? It's an angel pulling her halo off...the pose was damn evil to draw, but I think you could colour it well

ZoeStead In reply to Wazaga [2006-09-15 10:35:29 +0000 UTC]

Well right at this very moment I am working on about 5 pictures, so one of those should be good enough.

Hmmm...just had a look...how about a naughty angel girl? I can try and get that inked today. Oh and send me anything to colour in return too, I think this will be a good colaboration!
