Unmasked

hrumask

Someone help me come up with a better title. That one is lame.
I tried a colouring technique I haven’t before… at least not often: setting a brush on like 5% opacity and going over it lots.
This picture I got the idea for after seen a thumbnail of a pretty guy in a broken mask on Youtube. So of course I go to my current default bishie-boy… This one looks more elfy than most, though, so it’s probably Adhemlenei!Hrulash, rather than Qismah!Hrulash. He was going to be holding a sword in his other hand but I messed up the perspective and didn’t feel like going back to it.
The lineart under the mask is kind of pretty, too, so I might finish this picture with him having no silly mask at all.

Samurai Tseo

tseohakama

As some of you may know, I recently watched exorbitant amounts of Rurouni Kenshin, and this is part of the result: Tseo in a hakama. Now I want to draw Hitomi in a really flowery kimono. (But I also have many Ceniro pictures from this year’s NaNoWriMo to draw… oh dear)
I am aware that one leg looks significantly thinner than the other; it wasn’t something I noticed until I finished. : P I’m also aware that his hands don’t look right. I gave up trying to get them right rather quickly. : P
