I haven't gotten to do any updates on my art-piece yet since I hardly got to work on it yesterday, but I may today, just wanted to say the following;
@Aeronwen: Thank you, that's great to hear! =]
@Frostkisses: Aw, thanks! That's nice of you to look through my gallery. Thanks, I really try to add depth with my shading so it's good to know that it looks decent ^^
Haha, my scanner REALLY isn't that great, I may use a friend's better scanner for my final piece but I'm not sure yet. Good to know that it's not raping my contest entry, because yes they do 'rape' artwork!!
I also like your entry, very original, it makes me giggle. I like that your coloring is even and smooth. I do have to agree with Shewmake on the fact that the left eye looks a bit crooked from the right eye, but it may very well be the camera angle. As for the background, perhaps more snow or something of the like.
@Shewmake: Thank you very much
Haha yes, I will most definitely be added ornaments, some presents, perhaps even some lights, and making that star into a glowing light above Melandru. I'm still workin' on it
The piano for that music is very beautiful!
@GeminiJuSa: I'm liking the line-art so far, the picture makes me laugh, it's a very funny and nice idea for those minions to be doing all the work to make Wintersday special for the Necro XD I like the detail work that you have added into the trees and her armor so far, also in the moon. I do notice that the clouds seem a little slanted, since you made the bottoms of them flat, they don't really match to the horizon line for me. But it's not a huge problem, just something that catches my eye. I assume you will color this to make everything stand out more individually.
@InfestedHydralisk: I would totally help you, but I do not have any Monument armors, my boyfriend has it for his Derv, but it's dyed blue-ish, don't know if he'd be willing to redye it since it's a weird combo though heh.
@Shadow Sin: Sounds like an interesting idea to me
Also, Thanks Aeronwen for letting us know that the site has officially released the contest! I'm so excited! The only thing that concerns me is that are the headset/mouse and tonic the only prizes? I saw that in previous years they were giving away signed artbooks and I thought that would be SOOO awesome to win something like that... Kind of a let down if that's all that the prize is this year. But I will still enter because I really want to, even if I don't win anything at all it will be fun either way. Glad I was shown this contest here on Guru too! This is all so exciting!
~Well, I will hopefully add an update soon. For now, I am off. /wave
I was kind of thinking...(we did it in art class when I was oh...well...a youngin yet haha..but we used..) toothbrushes and white paint to flick them to make "snow". I'll see what I can do about the mouth. Thanks for the feedback!
at the moment.
