Looks pretty good! The pose feels kind of awkward to me but that's probably because of the lack of a background; seems to me like she's probably sprawled out on a large armchair or something.

It started out as a casting pose (the idea was for her to be floating in the air propelled backwards by some projectile spell but that quickly got derailed when I couldn't get the arm positions right.) Now that I look at it I can imagine her being on a large armchair xD

I like the "grown up" look.

You are very talented.

It's hard for an ele not to look grown up, especially in that armor xD

YaWn Officers Banner
Hello, as discussed for ages: here comes our mega post from YaWn, as promised we will give you a full DoA run in which you can leech or join in (your choice) and also a mallyx run to fill your HoM - this will be given after seeing intial designs and ideas. When the banner is finished we will also give you the promised amount of armbraces (to be discussed further because the requests keep changing, sorry!). If you need any further information please PM myself; Barbie Pryncess or Christina (Crystallum Aeterna) and we will be more than happy to provide more references.

Additional Notes: Purple is willing to pay an additional armbrace or 2 in order to have the motorbike picture done also, the leaning pose would probably be most suitable for the banner, if you are willing to try the motorbike pose too, he would be really happy.

We also have a new officer being promoted soon and we will give you the last name and images in a few days, as previously discussed with you.
We are really looking forward to seeing the outcome of this project, feel free to take as long as you would like and to be experimental if you wish.
Thanks in advance!

>.> oh dear, my tablet is having issues. There's a spot on the middle-top of the drawing area that seems to have gone dead. I can still work around this but it will make things more difficult.

BAsically if I try to start a pen stroke in that 'dead area' it will either not pick up the tablet pen, break in and out, or completely lose pressure sensitivity. However if I start a line from outside that area and move my pen into there, it seems to work fine. I'm not sure if this is a driver issue or that part is truly dying.

Work in progress for storkkel. I really want to finish this request first since he pre-paid.
I did something slightly different with this; I sketched on paper first instead of digitally and then traced it (placing the paper over the tablet) onto a blank sai canvas. I wonder if that's what broke my tablet.

Just as a general note, I don't like being pre paid because it makes me feel pressured to finish your art asap.

I think your tablet can't take your awsome art skill anymore... that is why it broke.
Don't pen stroke it too hard.

A couple of restarts has actually caused the problem to get worse, there's 'dead areas' all over the tablet now. Strangely it only seems to happen in SAI. I'm going to try installing an older version of the tablet driver and see what happens. ):<


edit - the driver seemed to do the trick, at least for now...

If possible, can Prince be the wearing the purple/black colours shown in the above screen shots rather than dyed white.

http://i55.tinypic.com/2mrzbmd.png Oh my, Lemon is pretty. I approve of the face/hair! Makeover with NF hair colour and Proph skin tone, I'm hazarding a guess?

I have a vested interest in female ele and ranger customization.


I can start sketching Lemon's chibi once you have a preferred pose.

Yes please with the wintergreen, maybe a matching candy arrow? <3 (Lemon said he's not very good with this stuff and whatever you imagine will be amazing in his eyes)

the line art and base colours for 6 chibis are now completed, 4 more to go.

Is the size of Hullzi's emerald blade okay? I have difficulty drawing large swords. (I wonder what Freud would say about this.) It comes close to being comically small right now, but given the nature of chibis I could let it slide.

Can't do the Aion pose exactly due to the chibis' oversized heads. The foreshortening of the arm behind head/hand in front of head would not work out correctly

After the DoA run this weekend (2x lb points!) I will complete the shading and finishing touches early next mon/tues.

As promised: line art (and base colour) before the DoA run.
Hullzi's sword is not coloured because I'm still unsure if I need to draw a bigger sword or not.

Shading to be done next week, after the run.


I'll work on Purple's motorbike pic separately at the end and that will be paid for separately.

On Sunday evening/Monday I'll be returning to campus to resize Hullzi's sword and finish the shading.

I never actually agreed on a set price prior to drawing, in the future for special requests I will try to have everything worked out and written in stone beforehand so nobody feels cheated.

When asked what the price was, I was afraid of coming off as greedy so I lowballed myself on the spot.

End result: can't sleep.

Price: I have 2 needs so I'll pay the fair going rate Sorry for the delay in getting back to you Vick, I've been busy with that group pic that I just finished in my last post. Added all your requests to the waiting list; no guarantee how long it will take or what order I will finish them in, though.

Next in line I'd like to finish brandylynn's request, since she's offering one of my bribe wishlist items I plan on being very experimental making it awesome. Plus, I'm drawing a paragon. That has to be my least-drawn class.

This morning, my laptop's ethernet port suddenly stopped working. I'm trying to see what can be done to fix it.

If it can't be fixed, that means I will only be able to log on to GW on the weekends. (the college network blocks games when you're connected from wireless.)



Fortunately aside from the weapons rack I am mostly done with my HoM. However, this makes me dread GW2. I better have everything sorted out before gw2 comes out.
