Wow that looks great Tommy! How do you make the lines/curves so smooth like that? Do you use pen tool or something (Unfortunately Photoshop Elements-which is what I use - don't have it...)?

Nope just brushes. It is like half the size of how I made it + I draw zoomed +200% or something, just add and remove where you think its nececary. Took like 3 hours this drawing. And you better get Photoshop CS3 or something I guess, most tutorials I see are made for that so would be easier. Free to download by torrents.

Awry is finished:

Free because I'm not completely happy with it. Was more of a shadow expiriment. I'm too afraid to make stuff dark. Feel free to remove the side btw .
Ok I lied about Morag worked on that aswell Worked on that too...

Idea is some clouds come with a Vortex to invite some margonite friends, clouds coming partly for the sun, old Elona, gonna add some vabbian stuff too. Landscaping is hard.. More zoomed in her hand looks better btw But that is Morag Only D:< Bwuahaa

Nexxxt up,.. Yasmine D:

Awry's turned out great IMO and Morag's making good progress. Can't wait to see the finished version. Love how you added the shadow..it's probably something I would've forgotten myself lol

Hey, those are actually very nice! I'm loving the coloring and lighting on Eryn's skirt and boots.

OMYGOSH HIJACK ALERT!! D:
J/k, one hell of a nice drawing that is. Never seen it before but sure are look alikes, but man that one is good. You got a link to more of her drawings? Would be great practice and examples for me :3

Anyway here is Yasmine:

Not really satisfied with the BG, the sides of the paper should be more raffled or something, but no idea how to. Will prolly updated it..
Face is messed up, Coco's is not really coco, though I think this one rocks lol Hopes you enjoy, probably last commission for a while, got exams, shouldnt be drawing at all, damn addiction. When done with my exams and when my liver got rid of all the alcohol I prolly consume afterwards I'm gonna step over to digital coloured commissions, so keep an eye on that.

Thnx all for the nice comments, really keeps me going

Guess Morag is finished. Thats one ded Panda and one ded IG pl0x. Might add BG later but did not feal like, stance was too natural to fit a environement, need more like Charliepai stances for that



Anyone knows a place to host images without resizing?

The full size version of Eryn with some minor aprovements. Was so annoying her face and hand looked good at lik 300% zoomed, but at 100% look weird. Guess its the skin colour aswell. Next time doing something like this gonna work with a bigger canvas.

As for commissions, there are now open, doing digital stuff now. So check it out in my main post.

oh wow that looks great Tommy! I love the jagged/shatter effect on the black wings and the luminous pink tattoos on her skin. Oh and I see you put a nice spark thingy on her belt too.

Sure thing I'm still taking them again Just opened them a day ago.
As for the list you posted, it's not needed anymore was more for the old commissions.

So its all digital now, things worth listing are things like eye colour, black n white or coloured, scetchy or detailed and what not. But something like that paragon is clear enough

As for starting on commissions and such.. My exam week starts tomorrow so won't do anything then, now I'm just drawing as study breaks when my head doesnt want anymore. As for showing progress.. Last time I was at my house I didnt have internet anymore, appears the unsecured network we were leeching on got secured ( So I won't be able to upload alot but its more then possible I will upload 2 at once.

Currently working on Spoon Legs' commission, turning out quite well so far If that is finished I will decide what next, but great chance its Hydralisk, nice chance to practice some fire stuffs and extreme lightsources ^^

HowdY <3

Glad to hear I'm special

Good to hear you like the fire thing, can't wait to see it!

And good luck with your exams!

Wooopdiiwoooh! My exams are over ! Now I can spend my time full on drawing again ^^ Think Spoonlegs will be finished this weekend, then start on Infested probably, and then Canthan Workshop, or do them both at sorta the same time.
