~nymph~ & Miss Danshai's Art
~nymph~
Hello everyone,
I'm ~nymph~. My friend Miss Danshai and I have been drawing for a while now. We decided that it would be fun to draw some guild wars stuff. Tell us what you think about our work, and we hope you enjoy it! All comments are welcome.
Edit: All of our work so far:
Ritualist
Elementalist
Ranger
Shan/Sanra Painting
Shan
Ranger w/Black Moa Bird
Cynn
Mesmer
Charr
legendary Ace's Mesmer
Commissions:
We are not taking any commissions at this time. Thank you.
Miss Danshai and I have decided to start taking commissions. We will only be taking 5 commissions at a time. It will be 5k for a drawing done in pencil (we both do pencil drawings, you can specify Miss Danshai or ~nymph~, but it is not necessary). Ones done in watercolor will be 10k (note: Miss Danshai does the watercolor). Be sure to include pictures that show all of your armor or state the armor that you are wearing. Also, please don't forget close-up shots of the face and hair so we don't have to play around with the character generator . There will be no background unless specified, and if you really want a specific pose, please say so! Thank you.

Hello everyone...i hope you guys like our drawings, and don't forget to send us some feedback. all comments welcome!! -Miss Danshai

Very beautifully done. The detail on the rit's armor is amazing. I like that they are both action-shots too.
Do you have any of your own characters?

Mistical miss
yeah their positions are awesome, however the elementalist could have a more interesting face I think... and perhaps the upper leg is a bit too long. The ritualist has an odd nose and mouth.. but Awesome detail!!
Theres a lot of potential in there! keep it up

None the less, very nicely done on the drawings. Would love to see some original character ones with just as nice detail from the two of you

Yes, those are ANET chars, but we do have drawings of original characters.

The above drawing is of my current guild leader, drawn in the basic pose mainly for pratice with armor details. I honestly agree with the comment about the faces, i am no great shakes at faces. (However, with some practice i hope to improve on that...) thanks so much for replying. (special hi to mistical miss! nice to see you again.)

Mistical miss
armor details are pretty good work on your faces, it helps if u draw a line through the middle, so the face is a bit more symmetric
legendary_Ace
Wow thats awesome! If you want to practice feel free to draw my new mesmer, I got a great shot, but its a bit dark =D
Feel free to mess around.

Thanks for the comments everyone. Yeah, about the faces, I'm not too good with them either, but like Miss Danshai said, i hope to get better at them . Well, here's another drawing:

Face again...and she looks a bit stiff, her right arm (for the viewer) has nothing to do, and though her chest is a bit turned (good!) her legs are still straight (bad).
What can help for drawing faces: Draw a line through the face from top to bottom. "(" shaped in ur last picture. Then u will notice the mouth isn't at the right place.
Keep it going, you only get better by drawing ^^

Miss Danshai
We know about the faces, we took half a semester of art last year and the teacher taught us that...although i actually hate to admit i know it, because i still can't draw faces! i have like this...face drawing deficency. my hand wont do what my brain wants it to. but then i've been studying anime style characters lately, and my noses (if nothing else) have improved now that i'm using a different style. i'm hoping to improve on the eyes, the eyes are the most important part of a face i think...they give the drawings life if you do it right, and show character. Well, we'll post some more drawings soon.
Mistical miss
Take a good look at where you position the mouth aswell. In those drawings I've seen that the mouth is often not right under the nose, but somewhat more to the side. It takes the symmetry out of the face. And once again^^: keep it up!

I am working on your mesmer, should have it done in a couple days or so, which isn't bad, considering i'm doing it all during sixth period while pretending to take notes. it's coming out quite nice actually, and the face turned out really nice.
Okay, here's the unfinished work.

Wow, thats awesome! Can't wait to see the finished!
BTW can you mod her details a bit?
[PS: The finders should be a bit thinner, her stomach needs to indent in more to show form, other than thats its perfect]

I do love your work, it is very nice and I think that you could do commissions and make a bunch in Guild Wars.
Well what I wanna ask is, WILL YOU PLEASE TAKE COMISSIONS?
Lol I would seriously LOVE any of my characters drawn by either on of you, your drawings are fantastic.
I will post my characters if you decide to do commissions.

Okay, well i finished your mesmer Legendary Ace, i just haven't had a chance to scan it yet!! but i will try to post that asap.
Commisions, hmm we could do that. don't know how it would work between the two of us thou, you would either have to specify me or nymph, or else we'll just toss dice or whatever.
okay here it is.

Well done! Ill pay who ever drew it, few details off, but overall great, just PM me with who and price
Miss Danshai
that was me who drew it, i'm glad you like it. we both usually post our own stuff, except in the very first post the rit is mine. but other than that, it holds true that we both post our own drawings.
~nymph~
Hi all, sorry i haven't posted in a while, I've been busy. Well, I'm trying to work on my faces.
Here's the one of Cynn again, I changed the face:
http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u...nymph/Cynn.jpg
As for this one, the face and arm any better?
http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u...mph/Mesmer.jpg
And this is one of a Charr:
http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u...mph/Charr2.jpg
tell me what you think.
hmmm....commissions, not sure how that would work out, mostly Miss Danshai and I work separately, but we occasionally help each other out on the drawings.

I looked through most of them (one wasn't there anymore) and I think you are definately showing promise, however.....there are quiet a few anatomy issues....not all of them are obvious...many had quirky proportions or assymetrical proportions....a few had glaring differences (ie: too long of arms or legs, torso too long) but do not be discouraged; simply learn and improve
Still good work
Still good work
Mistical miss
Haha, no perynne walker drew this face for me ^^ I just coloured it.
That was a pretty pose u took on that last one. Face is almost right (eyes aren't equal, but it doesn't matter that much)
Some points you may want to work on:
- armor needs space, that means that if you draw a leg part (like on that ranger) the leg+part should be wider than just theleg. (more the case on the arms btw)
- Using distance in your background, the river is kind of straight to the viewer, it should look more / \ -ish. Also try to fill up the landscape a bit more, draw some grass . Good work on the trees.
- Sharpen the lines a bit after u have finished the drawing, that way it won't become a grey mess.
Keep it up! (hope this helps :$)

here's something i've been working on it...nymph tells me it's not a good pose for a mesmer, but i dont see what's unusual about a mesmer turning cartwheels...i mean, assume she just finished a very difficult mission and is celebrating. well, i was trying for something unusual as opposed to the typical generic pose...the proportions may be off seeing as i didnt go through the whole eight-heads-high thing like i usually do (i know its supposed to be about 7 1/2, but i like to elongate the legs on the women, they look prettier), and the hands/arms are a bit uneven...and the left leg! OH NO! i just realized how crooked it is...

Thats a really tough pose, looks nice though!
There are only two things I can find that you haven't found already:
The hands lack fingers, and well the other thing would make the picture a bit more erm well err, when you stand on your head, your dress falls down. (Breast might be too packed in the clothes to be subject to gravity aswell).
Nice job on that one! Good thing you stepped off a generic pose aswell!

very nice work both of you!! I'm having such a ball going through these threads
I sure hope you decide to take commissions, and if you do I would love one!! What I have in mind is sort of a family picture of my ranger and my pet with my real life partner's ranger and her pet. I realize this would be more work, and I would most definitely pay more for it.
This is my ranger and Buffalo Wings, my pet.

Oooh, he's so cute. <3 The legs could maybe be a bit thinner in their middle parts to emphasize where the knee "knobs" are and where the foot starts. Otherwise it's just perfect, I think.
Your other drawings are very good too, keep up the good work! It's good that you're trying out different poses, rather than sticking to the generic frontal pose that so many promising artists get stuck on. Best way to learn anatomy is to draw it from all sides.

OMG that's *MY BABY*!!!!!!!! He looks soooooooooooooooo CUTE!!!!
I am overcome by emotion!!! honestly!!! Some background info: I started looking at threads in this section a few weeks ago. I am amazed at the talent, truly amazed. I have requested a few commissions here and there, and your sketch of Buffalo Wing is THE FIRST one. Seeing him here was like so touching!!!

well, I've worked on my drawing a little bit....added a moa bird cause i got bored and as for the grass and water.... lets just say I'm terrible at drawing it.

Ooooh. it's so cute! <3<3 It fits in really well.
One thing that strikes my eye is that there's a LOT of "empty" space on the ranger's left. Will you be drawing something there? Even some large bushes and trees and maybe tall grass would help... right now, the image looks pretty lopsided since the main attractions are both situated to the far left.
Also, the moa's size looks a bit small, since he's nearly on the same level as the ranger. If the ranger stood up, she'd be almost right next to the moa, and it would come up to about her waist. I know it's probably too late to fix it now, but you'd need to move the ranger closer to the viewer if you wanted to get more of a distance (and at the same time height difference) between them. I know, perspective is tricky... x_x
Anyway, don't mind me, this picture is just wonderful like this too.
