Elvish Parade

Ooh, they're so shiiiiiiny

Ooh, they’re so shiiiiiiny

I love this picture, even though it’s technically not finished. There should be more crowds, for one thing; that’s why the buildings on the left aren’t done. I decided that 15 was enough knights, including Flaer and Zela – for that’s who the two unhelmeted riders are. There’s so much in this picture, like several swooning girls, talking, excited riders, city, unicorns, blah blah blah… I’m afraid to touch it in case Zela’s hair gets smudged. The horses are still not great, but they are better than some, especially Yoeath, Zela’s unicorn, who was here still called Mist. Also, the armour looks actually pretty well developed, even if it’s not armour that a normal knight person would wear. It’s been skewed by Fire Emblem. Sorry.

This picture was inspired by the Dream March from Copland’s Red Pony Suite.

Zela Greets the Sun

Fanfare!

Fanfare!

This picture was inspired by the first movement of the Red Pony Suite by Copland. I tried the backlight thing, where the light sort of wraps around the figure. It didn’t work so well, and she has terrible ears. Maybe it’s that her head is too small. And by the way, her sword hilt design is finalized; at least it was in the profile avatar sketch and I used it again here. Her hair is too long.

I have a lens flare on my sword; fear me!

Ha, this is a cool picture despite the technical problems. The guy in the middle is the ‘hero boy’, Ron. The Meticulous Dwarf Wiz is the short guy, and then Jervis is the ‘axe boy’ over on the left. On the right, the chick is named Marialla and keeps her lockpicks in her purse. Ha. Lastly is Flairé: yah! Continue reading

Bran

Albinos have all the power

Albinos have all the power

This is Bran from The Dark is Rising series. He’s an albino with golden eyes. He wears sunglasses so as not to freak people. He teaches Will Staunton to pronounce Welsh, which I think is pretty cool. And this picture still doesn’t look like him much at all. My portraiture is still primitive.

Reyson and Leanne

Angelic herons

Leanne and Reyson in portrait, except that I didn’t know how to draw Leanne! So her hair is completely wrong. Darn. But Reyson, on the other hand, my brother believes good enough to pass as official art – after colouring. …I don’t think so, but it’s a pretty good drawing of him. And I rather like drawing wings, even if I have no idea how to do it properly.

Sain and Salir

He's a sweetie

He’s a sweetie

Happy Valentine’s Day! About six months late… This is Salir, I guess, and Sain in the corner, and I drew it for Valentine’s Day. Salir’s body is too big for her head, and that’s why she looks wierd. I’m not sure… I think Salir’s hair is shorter somehow… I never have a clear picture of what she looks like, just how she acts.

Kent and Sain

Those horses are seriously undernourished. What are they, ponies? And don't get me started on the state of those men's legs!

This picture is of Kent and Sain, on deformed horses. I never have any idea what size horses are supposed to be. Epona in Twilight Princess is gloriously massive, but this is pre-TP, and horses aren’t my specialty anyway. In fact, this is a pretty bad picture.

And seriously, I didn’t know how to draw knees consistently, if at all. When I find out, I ‘ll let you know.

Anyway, hooray for Kent and Sain!

Also, they’re wielding the opposite weapons of their character art on purpose.
