Eeks you have such a really nice style i have always loved it, both pictures are coming along nicely. and imo there is a huge leap in from your earlier work until now. keep persisting with the pictures because the hard work is paying off

Yay! I love your artwork myself, Morag. I can actually finish it, as I'd saved a progress image of it. It's just very irritating and disheartening, 'cause I can see the jpeg pixellation when I zoom in. :\

Aw, thanks Mel. I still owe you a picture, haha. I'll start it soon, I need examples to post anyway, if I open up a commission thread. So you know, I don't just have disembodied heads for examples.

Got fed up with the last thing, so I began on something for YSJ. Think it's shaping up a bit better than usual, just gotta.. Edit the colours. Need to actually be more aware of what my background colour is, but I think I can fix that up once I finish the face.



I got this far before ragequitting my last drawing.



Good one, eeks. Tsk.

Edit -

My boyfriend pointed out her eyes were too small around the same time I noticed. XD



She er, doesn't look as fierce.. But I think it looks less odd now.

Hahaha. I'm sorry, I can't help it. XD

I scrapped the last picture of Reyla and started over. Gonna redo the sky 'cause it looks absoluterly bland so far. :\ Like the face better now, though. There were too many inconsistencies I noticed in the last one, after my boyfriend and his artistically inclined parents pointed them out, which is why I started over. XD

(clicky)

Also drew some chibis out of boredom. Neither are finished, of course.



I thought perhaps, if I start a commission topic that.. If I had a waiting list for regular commissions and it was full, I'd do these in between. Good idea? Bad idea? I dunno. Yappity yap.

I think if I were to draw them, I'll stick to the first chibi-style. I dunno. It looks more chibi-esque. I suppose. >_> Not very used to drawing in an anime style, despite having started drawing in one.

I would support it and join in if you were, but I must remind you that there is a large responsibility you'll be bearing if you don't set restraints. More important than what we want is that you aren't put in a stressful situation.

Ah yes, that's .. why I'm doing this so slowly. Drawing chibis whilst doing another, larger artwork tends to negate that stress for me. I'm damn sure I'd be breaking a sweat rather easily if I began commissions now, though. XD Where I'm at the moment, I think I'm more comfortable with sparse, PM'd requests. :x

Wound up with this for the sky:



Think I like it a bit better. :x

EDIT:

Huff, finished.

eeks! it looks incredible! I love the hair and reflections so much and the eyes are so mesmerizing o_o. The piece does look more intense this time around too (though I still think the other would have looked good though)
You'll get a large queue very quickly if you start a thread methinks! (one that I would join in for too! xD)

Haha, I'm a little iffy about starting commissions myself, as I got swamped on another site.

On top of the ones I had on a commission topic, this person asked for six commissions. I, being an idiot, accepted and facepalmed shortly afterwards. Facepalmed a few more times when that person's friend PM'd me and asked for ten. Ten! XD Never did finish them.

So more to the point, I don't trust myself to not ease off and shrug off too many requests at the moment, and have just been keen on improving on both my artwork, and at the rate I finish them.

I've only just recently gotten a slight knack at source lighting and ... Slightly more detailed backgrounds, too. Pretty depressing, huh.

Have been currently planning to just draw things for close friends as leetle guinea pigs. :P

That aside, as I stated, I'm happy with doing PM'd requests as they seem to be rare. However, I just got a PM from Hailfall, so I'll be busy with that. I'd be happy to do something for anyone else if they don't mind the wait, though.

... Just not too many people. :P

Otherwise, you can just wait for me to start a commission thread, whereupon I'll hopefully have improved greatly. XD

Glad you like it, by the way. XD

EDIT: Hahaha, Mel. I love you.

EDIT2: Thought I'd draw myself a deviantart id. My last uploaded one was from three years ago. XD Just a sketch at the moment.



Er, censored out the dirty word.

That's troll Eka in the corner. She just reared her ugly head, 'cause photoshop bloody crashed.

FFFFUUUU-

Started on Hailfall's necro:



A sketch at the moment, gotta rework her figure and pop some armour on. Unless you'd prefer her naked, Hailfall. XD

The thing behind her is meant to be a stained-glass window of Grenth. :x

I also reworked the Reyla picture here. Somehow, it took me about a day to realise that the clouds were splotchy. XD

Hooray! If I do not like how she looks naked, I can draw armour over it anyway.

Got a wee bit ahead of myself:



An awfully cold shower compelled me to start colouring. x(

Did a little ms paint thing for my friends' birthday, whilst working on Hail's necro.



.. Don't think the nip's offensive, but I'll provide a link if it is? XD

Ended up not looking as delerious as Delerium should be, but I think I got the playful aspect down. :x My friend liked the eyes enough for me not to change them.

From now until at least Sunday I think, I'm going to be busy with job hunting and getting together a hackneyed costume for some halloween party. Hope you don't mind, Hailfall.
