I know the arm is WAY outa porportion, I was kinda drawing this while watching a movie, so I wasn't as careful. But doing it this way eliminated smearing the colored pencil with regular pencil, which gave it much beter quality. Oh, and, try to ignore the water; I totaly messed up on that part. the sunset didn't come out too well either

But if you ignore everything but the girl, it looks really awesome. It would look even better as computer graphics.

I'm still practicing coloring. the water was a lot of fun to draw because I used about 6 diferent shades of blue/blue-green and it basically was a bunch of scribbles. to blend them I lightly damped a few q-tips and went over the water and some rough spots here and there. I was also inspired to draw this from a famous picture that looks somewhat like it:

Great work, Icy. The water needs just a bit more work, it needs a liquidy look to it.

Posted 05 September 2005 - 07:46 PM
I like the one you did though.
#18
Posted 12 December 2005 - 07:25 PM
READ THIS (Since so many people don't): well, here's a new creation. I was listening to muse when I drew this, so thats what inspired me. and if you look it looks like it says "feel MUSIC" but it actually is saying "feel MUSE" 'cause yeah. you can take it either way though.

1st pic: I like this one alot. Her staff should be a little longer however, it looks a little bit more like she's holding a really long wand. She seems a bit too tall for that body over all; she's too thin to be at that height. =X.
2nd pic: Don't really have any complaints. The water doesn't look to natural, but then, that was probably what you wanted! :3

woot. try to guess who this is. for somereason I had to resize it because imageshack said the file was too big. I drew the thing in ms paint (woot mouse works.) and it said the file was like, 2 thousand something kilobites, so I had to resize it in image composer. But yeah, I was bored in mic. and webpage class.

Sarena is a fanfic character of mine, if any of you are wondering (I'm writing fanfics, so I'm officially obsessed XD)
http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/9550/muramasaorigmn7.th.png
This one I drew using actual achohol based markers I got for christmas. comics markers, if you will. They're. The. BEST! (I just had to show Blues in all his muramasa style glory n.n)

Though it looks like regular Forte, I think you all know the meaning behind this one n.n (also, theres that and the fact that its not just forte, but saito-style forte. --though I doubt any of you have a clue as to what that means.)
so harr, maytees! enjoy!

Posted 19 January 2007 - 10:11 PM
I know what you're saying about the first one (and second). I drew that back in october of last year. The pictures are in order from oldest to newest, with the forte one being finished only a few days ago. I really wish I could upload all of my artwork over the past year, it'd really show you a glimpse of how persistence and dedication can give you great results. At the beginning of 2005, I looked back at 2004's artwork and thought to myself "wow, I'm so much better now. I don't think I can improve." But then 2006 rolled around, and I looked back at 2005 and thought, "wow...I did improve. does this mean I can improve more?" And this year, 2006 ended, and I looked back a few days ago, at all my artwork from the time I started coming here, and realized that we're always improving. It excites me yet scares me to think that someday I'll look back and think "I thought that crap was GOOD?!" XD And hopefully I'll never stop improving.
Kinda symbolic of how things have changed over the years for me. Along with the my artwork, other things have undergone dramatic transformations. I guess the whole metaphor of it is artwork in itself. Beautiful, isn't it?

so yarr. This one is a sketch I did a few weeks before christmas, taken from a normal day in English class. Audrey is the one with the HCO shirt, Autumn is the one with the crazy curly hair, and I'm the one who's falling asleep XD
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v449/lig.../scan0006-1.jpg
Uhm, this one is another one from my fanfic (As the next one will be as well) and NO. This is not a representation of a past forumer as some may assume-- I just used the name.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v449/lig...ar/scan0005.jpg
Like I said, from my fanfic. The girl with the oxygen mask is the girl from my previous upload (Sarena). o.o Somehow, in all my stories, at least ONE ends up in a hospital. Weird.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v449/lig.../scan0003-1.jpg
This one was a doodle that turned into an experiment with some "Digital art markers" I got a little while ago. They seem to work pretty good, and I really like the way the colors came out. This one is more recent, only last week or so did I draw this.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v449/lig.../scan0004-1.jpg
TEH OMIGAWD YAOI. Yeah, for those afraid of yaoi, go run under a couch and hide XD no, no kissing or anything. Just a blush...*squeals* XD gawd this is embarassing, but hey! It's art!

Nose is a bit too high, the mouth is closer to the noise the the chin.
In the side view the face seems flat, pull the nose out more.
And the hand, you should try to draw with shapes first before you try to tackle the hand head on. Draw with circles and cycliners. It helps. Also, buy one of the woodeen dummies that you can move it's arm and legs, they are pretty helpfull on the over scale anatamy.
Is that ok?

Well, I did what I said I would, So I present to you: Miyuki Kuroi
also I got a few more...
This girl Yuki isn't the yuki we know and love (:() But is kinda modeled after her as one of my characters for my fanfic. She helps Sarena get off her feet and go for her dreams, basically.
and of course, Dark Rockman and Dark Blues You can resist clicking... XP
??? Navi I haven't thought of a name, but this is going to be sarena's navi. I was just doing a random sketch. I'm happy with the face came out. I think I'm finally getting the hang of drawing the face, especially the eyes.
That's about it. Oh yeah
@The wind seer: do you mean you want me to draw you as yoshi? I'm confuzzled...I don't do animals/ scenery very well in anime. My forte is in people, mostly.
I'm also taking requests! n.n

ARES
If you look on my deviantart gallery, there's an unedited version of this as well.
Dancing Woman
random and kinda realistic looking girl
All I have to say on this one is that I realized how busty she is AFTER I got done. I was kinda leaning off to the side when I drew this, held it up, and was like "crap." Meh. I think the face came out nicely though!

I still use my deviantart account, so I'll have my artwork posted there, but because SOME of us are prejudice against artwork that is posted on dA, I'm also uploading the artwork on Imageshack.
For Yuki: You've got chocolate!

http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/6986/sailormoonke2.th.png
Also a few random mugshots of the Golden Sun crew. I didn't quite finish, as you can tell XD. I didn't have ALL the right colors of art markers necessary to do this, so I improvised a little n.n;
http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/9763/headsxdfh6.th.png
Lastly, for those who are aren't completely homo-phobic, a little shounen-ai. XD; I kinda ran out of ideas on the last panel, but actually, as an update, I added in the last panel, I just haven't gotten to scan it. (Reads Right to Left)

My dad downloaded a trial version of Adobe Illustrator cs3 'cause it wouldn't work on my computer, but so far I LOVE IT. I really want to buy it, but with no job, that'll be kinda hard XD. Hopefully he decides he needs it too. :P
I drew this a while ago, and I think I posted it up here, but I really like how it came out when I did a little photoshop editing. :3 Blues is my god, if you couldn't tell. ;)

and this is another character from my fanfic, Irae. She's actually really meek and quiet, so the pose doesn't really fit her. But she is strong, so meh. could go either way.

And thanks, Escout! ^^ That story was fun to write, and I'm excited about starting the sequel ( =.=; although I have yet to write the second chapter. I need inspiration BADLY.)
I have some more lineart to scan, but I can't get to that now, so hopefully later I'll be able to post it soon.

>Drawing for a friend (It's funny how lightning and thunder go together...)

Instead, I use Paint Shop Pro. Kinda half-baked and cheap, but I've been using it for a long time so I really know how to make the best of it. I do wish I had photoshop to make my hand-drawn artwork look 72384738903 times better, but sadly, every time I try to install Photoshop, illustrator, or something else of that genre, it phails me v.v;
#139
Posted 16 July 2007 - 12:15 AM
I'll only critique the shading one.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v449/lightningstar/beautiful.png
You did a great job on the dress, the wrinkles look like they were tough to do but you pulled it off superbly. Her belt "buckle" (?) has good detail to it as well. Really like the expression on her face here. She looks like she's grinning and sneering at the same time which suits the pictures theme.
The only flaw is that the lighting looks a little strange. It looks like you intended the light source to be from below, but I can't actually tell if it's coming from below her or above her. On her arms and shoulders, it looks like it's coming from below as the shadows are on top of the arms and shoulders. Her bust has a shadow on the top of her dress as if the light is from below, yet her cleavage is covered in light as if it's from the top. Her face is shadowed by her hair and the shadows are at her neck as well as if the light is from the top... but her collarbones are casting shadows upwards as if the light is from below. See what I mean?
If you drew it so that the shadows rest on her shoulders and upper chest, and that light rests on her cheekbones and lower bust (like it already is) the light would look better. The cleavage in itself looks weird but you don't draw cleavage that much so I'm not gonna complain.
Sorry about the rant of lighting and shadows, as you know, I'm a photographer, so I have to have a natural eye for that sort of thing. It's actually a really awesome drawing, that's why I'm giving such critique. I like to see already great things done even better. :P
#140
Posted 16 July 2007 - 01:12 PM
This is the kind of critique I LOVE! Yes, the light was supposed to look like it was from below, but I noticed that I butchered that like you said. ^^ Don't worry, ranting is good in this case. If you hadn't pointed it out, I would just go on making the same mistakes, and that's no way to improve.

Just pretend like she's leaning against a wall X3 *too lazy to draw a wall* I did a little editing, so the text didn't show up well. It says "I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong" Taken from the song, "I'm moving on" by Rascal Flatts (Such an awesome song) Done with Pencil and edited in Paint Shop Pro (b'cuz I'm too poor to get Photoshop XD)

The one with the leaves and the tree, I like that one. It has nice shapes and lines, and it'd be even better if it were done with black and white film with some extreme exposure, to bring out the contrast between the tree limbs and plants and the background.

I'm so sorry escout that it took me this long to get your request done. Hilarious, really. Once I finally get it done, my printer breaks, my dad hauls it to his workbench, leaving me scannerless (I have a Printer/scanner/coppier machine thing. I just got another HP PSC, and even this new one was hell. Seriously.)
I'm also sorry that
- he looks so girly (XD my inner yaoi fangirl took over, I guess)
- His outfit may not be exact (I didn't have access to a compy at the time)
- The quality picture sucks (I really hate HP)

This is just a mugshot of one of my characters, Kana. She's so cute and adorable, 'cause she's just so sweet and innocent. Well, at least when the vengeful princess spirit inside of her isn't acting up. ^^

SO. I had a good picture. I was SO CLOSE to being finished. I started drawing this earlier, then as my internet dropped, I disconnected my computer from the power adapter to see if I could pick up a signal if I stood by the router. Well once it finally picked it up, the battery died on my comptuer and I lost EVERYTHING I was working on! @#$%! I tried again, but the first attempt was WAY better. TT;

Oh, and officially, I HATE drawing eyes! To match the right style of eye to the drawing is so hard, much less the fact that I can't color eyes for the life of me. And yes, I know. It looks like her right eye is falling off her face o.x

And thank you, too, escout. Yeah, the eyes are probably the most essential part of the whole picture, so it would be very pointless to have the hair cover them up D:. I have fallen in love with the the big fuzzy round brush on photoshop. It's perfect for doing hair.
Laharl, the fact that you never visit the art board is why I forbid you from commenting on my artwork. :o (and the fact that now that I'm into Naruto, my muse will be slave driving me to draw fanart. Oh the repercussions of obsession. =.=)

Oh I know how you are going to so hate me for this. Honestly. I hate myself for this. Not only is it fanart of the overly-drawn emo-arsed sasugay, but it looks like sh!t. And that's not an 8-pack...that's just my horrible anatomical skills trying to draw a 6 pack in a crouchy position.
Go ahead. Tear it apart. But critque me on the artwork. I don't care if you like Naruto or not. (laharl...)
edit: fixed the weird yellow highlight on face and hands. I don't know how I missed that...
