Psyche by TalonV

As promised, the followup to yesterday’s picture! Talon said something like “that was fun, can I do another one?” so I said “how about Psyche?” and so she did. Again, click to fullview, because it’s gorgeous! I want everyone to note the cool way she interpreted the hairband – I sent her the cover for reference, and it does look like the hairband is attached to the earrings – even though I never saw it until she drew it! Which is totally cool and I’ll definitely be stealing that design for the actual comic.

Originally posted here and here.

Today, I… have nothing to say. Nothing at all. Except that Le Nozze di Figaro has taught me so many words that we’re already learning, like ‘l’eta!’. Which means ‘age’, and is used in the ‘catfight duet’ between Susanna and Marcellina which is simultaneously incredibly beautiful and devillishly funny. I think I have way too big an advantage with this music thing; most of the rest of my classmates have terrible accents. I’m sorry, but it’s true.

Oh! I remembered what I have to say. I went to the Clubs Week thing set-up… I signed up online, because they had a convoluted sign-up system that involved waiting in line. But I went to check out the booths in person first. I signed up for the salsa club, the history club, and the anime club. I might not go to the last two very much, but they might have something interesting. Important note – this salsa club meets at the same time on the same day as the Rueda salsa club, my last salsa club! But they dance Los Angeles salsa, which is apparently couple salsa. So I will learn something totally new! : )

My Brahms exercise book came, which is great, and also Dreigiau Book 1, which I won in the Wayrift draw a couple weeks ago! I already read it. It reads much faster in print than it does online. I giggled helplessly whenever Zemi appeared because GOSHDARNIT HE’S CUTE. I might have to do more fanart. Da~ang. DOWN, ZEMI. STOP BOTHERING ME. I HAVE OTHER ARTS TO DO. XP

Eros by TalonV

As another part of this sketch exchange I participated in, I requested TalonV to draw me Eros (from my webcomic), and she went above and beyond by doing a picture and then colouring it! And you really must click for full-vew because there are lots of lovely details in both of them. You can see the originals here and here.

Tune in tomorrow for the exciting sequel!

So I’m working on Italian homework and the novel, and I’m filling in the end of Part 1, hoping that it will make the middle easier to write. It’s actually quite fun, although habit has me easily distracted.

Brain: I don’t wanna write words!

Me: But you already know them, not like usual, and it’s exciting!

Brain: Yes, but – email!

Me: You just checked that! Shut up!

Brain: : (

Me: Deal, kiddo.

Brain: Oh, hey, words!

Me: >.<

Rana, by RoseThornZero

This beautiful piece of art was drawn by Rose, who seems to be my new biggest fan, judging from how often she comments! : D We met on Wayrift, and then on DA, and this piece was part of an art commission trade there. Here is the piece I did as my half of the trade…

I really love how she captured Rana’s spunkiness. She says she enjoyed the character design, and I have to say I am amazed at the care she put into it. Also I like how she does faces, and Rana looks really pretty! In other words, it’s fabulous, yo.

Another thing you should check out is her original fantasy story! It’s very intriguing, and looks like it’s going to be really exciting. The picture I did features two characters from it (who are thus far only peripherally involved, but central plot-wise).

I do have a picture today, but I need to practice before I let myself finish it. Off I go!

P.S. This picture is much larger, but the default resize options for WordPress are a little inconvenient. Click for full-size!

Tam commission

painted by Sarah Ellerton (of The Phoenix Requiem and Inverloch)

I always have trouble painting Tam. He is so eclectic, hard to pin down, both in physical space and in imagery… so I got someone else to do it! And Sarah is amaaaazing. (also, fast. She did this in like three days, omg) She got every detail that I specified, and added more!! (omg sexy belt)

One problem – Tam’s a male elf, thank you very much. I see a few people are confused about this. He’s built, for an elf, that’s all. XD

EDIT: They’re still not convinced. Oh well. Can’t please everyone. But I should probably thank them because replying to them led to me joining DevArt. : P

P.S. This art is now on his profile page.

Psyche and Aphrodite

fanart by the amazing TAB

I’m working on the next page, btw… but I had to post this now. It is perfect. It is so amazing. Isn’t Tab talented? She’s also an actress and a musician, so she’s very multitalented.

Okay, stop reading my words and go stare at this piece of brilliance! <3
