that's great! Can't wait to see more of your stuff
Woodelf Archer
@ Drelias, Hey, just an update.
It's taking longer than I thought but should be worth it when it's done.
@ Gemini , Thank you very much! yes just a mouse, but hopefully not for much longer! Your live stream is really good btw
@ Reigi, I don't know those two characters you posted, but I do know Geralt of Rivia, and he does look kind of like the first. I could do a mix of your character and Geralt if thats okay?
@ Xandra, Thanks! I'll try and get some more stuff up soon
EDIT: Updated the picture to a higher res
Reigi
Yes, you can! When I read a book and played the game, I have imaginate that my mage is swordmaster like him

That looks good Woody! Epic expression on that skeleton on the right
InfestedHydralisk
Omg proooo. I like where the skeleton is looking at.
Drelias Melaku
O wow, that is amazing. I love the way you've done the skirt, too - I'd enjoy the armor more if in-game if it looked like that. The skeletons are definitely a nice touch - and they're so well done! I've tried drawing skeletons before with no luck, so I have some major respect for anyone who can make them work. xD
Looking great so far - thank you very much! <3

Oh and if you ever want to do an Assassin. Please do mine!
Name: Kimi (Asian)
Eyecolor: Brown

Discription: Kimi has been trained into Ninjutsu since she was 7 (she is now 25 years old). It's not just Ninjutsu that she has been trained into, she has also mastered the Shadow Arts. By which she can walk through the shadows. Fading away in black smoke,completely becoming invisible for a brief moment and being able to create a shadow-ish illusion of herself, just to name a few abilities. Currently she lives in a big city mainly run by criminal orginisations. She is part of a gang to stop all the criminal activities with high-tech Ninja tools including handguns, and their assault team wears modern traditional Samurai suits (so strong that it resists a huge amount of bullets) with mainly an assault gun and a hardened sword.

That is amazing. And I love that skeleton XD
Let's see...here's my Mesmer.
Name: Lucia Cheval
Eye color: light brown
Born in Ascalon, the youngest of a minor noble family, she grew up as something of a spoiled snob, until she turned 18, rebelled against the arranged marriage her parents set up for her, and decided to join the Ascalon army. There she trained for a while, happy with the fact that she was learning how to actually do something other than sit around, drink tea, and look pretty, but the Searing happened not long after she entered into the Academy. Several years has passed and while she is still the elegant woman she was when she was younger, she's lost any arrogance she had, and instead has become a very caring woman, willing to lend a hand in help where it's needed, though she has something of a dark sense of humor.

Looking really nice so far
If you wanted to do a ranger, you're more then welcome to use mine.
Name: Dione
Eye colour: Right eye blue/left eye green.
Personality: Good points: Agile, softly spoken, self reliant, honest.
Bad points: Stubborn, can get over confident.
Description/background story: Quick in thought, movement and marksmanship, Dione is a careful traveller. Born into a village of farmers and hunters on the outskirts of the Jade Sea, she is no stranger to a hard days work. When a slaver unit raided the village, she did all she could help people escape, but was inevitably captured and sold to a Canthan noble within Kaineng City. When the plague struck and her owner succumbed to the outbreak she made her escape, and headed back towards the Luxon capital. After taking numerous jobs as a courier bodyguard, and naga control to name a couple, she took a job of escorting an old monk on a pilgrimage to Shing Jea island, where he confessed his regret of never finishing his travelling journals. Since he was nearing the end of his life she offered to finish it for him to which he excepted. She now travels from place to place, filling out numerous books of all shapes and sizes of her travels, of the people she has met, and the adventures she’s been in.
Additional info: She has a henna red band across her right arm, and wears a jade-beaded necklace.
Edit: Added a pose Ref, in case you wanted something to go by, although I'm more then happy to leave it up to your imagination.

Thanks for all the kind words
@ Reigi, awesome, I've really wanted to do something like that, should be good
@ Tommy + Infested, haha! I actually hadn't noticed that! Hopefully he'll keep his bones to himself O.o
Ill make a list so I've got everyone in order I didn't expect people to ask

Wow, that looks great The glow of the Orb on the surrounding surfaces really makes the image pop. Keep up the good work!
InfestedHydralisk
I'd suggest lowering the green reflection on the body. It really takes over too much.
And the skeletons on the bottom aren't actually hit I think, because the hand blocks the light.
But other then that, looks really good!

Drelias Melaku
Thank you! <33 It's a bit difficult to see her with the black background, but I think it fits for a Necromancer. While the green glow fits with in-game lore, I do rather like the white, since she is pretty much entirely grayscale except the flower in her hair. Both versions look very nice, though, and I really appreciate the art. Again, thank you! I love it!
Woodelf Archer
sorry I couldn't resist posting a lighter version just in case you prefer it.
Less Darkness
Less Darkness
More Darkness
Drelias Melaku
Thank you - I've saved all versions, and I love every one.
I really like the way the skeletons are drawn. In the first picture with the gray background, I just thought it was a cool effect, and I can see in the finished versions that it's due to the lighting - it makes it believable and eerie. Definitely fitting for a Necromancer, and it makes me want to load up my Aura of the Lich build.

That's so cool having the two different versions I like the lighter one better because we can see all the stuff you drew, but the darker one just has this really awesome vibe to it!
Woodelf Archer
Urgh that's really wierd. I saw this thread on a different computer and my art is so dark. On my laptop when I draw them, my pictures are a lot lighter. Apologies about the art Drelias, at least I understand what people were talking about now lol. Had me puzzled.
I'll see If I can make my screen darker, not sure on this laptop.
@ Reigi, I've been busy with ideas, I either want your character fighting something massive (but would make your character small) or do a kind of portrait like piece. What would you prefer?
Also I'm waiting for my tablet to be delivered before I start, so I've got time change things
EDIT: my laptop was on super-bright apparently >.>

Also I'm waiting for my tablet to be delivered before I start, so I've got time change things O_O~!! That happens to me too! O: On my old compy all of the colours were darkish . And I'd switch to this one and I could barely see what I drew XD So I'm getting paranoid of what everyone else see's when I post something o_@!!
Drelias Melaku
Don't apologize, Woody! The darkness works quite well with a nearly-monochromatic necromancer.
My old monitor made everything stupidly dark, even with it on the brightest setting. It drove my nuts. xD I had no idea until I tried drawing something for someone and they said the colors were far too light... Then I looked at it on my fiance's computer and was shocked to see the huge difference.
Anyway, sorry for rambling, but in short - I'm happy with the picture. Necromancer is a very dark and gloomy profession.

Wait what!? You still did Drelias' necro with your mouse!?
Woodelf Archer
Yeh. It's pretty irritating at times you have to zoom in like 400% on somethings to get it accurate. (although that may just be me not knowing quite what to do yet ) Hopefully the tablet will make it a little easier
Oh btw does anyone have any brush sets they would recommend? I just realised yesterday there are different brushes you can download and use. derp.

I knew only one other person who could do such beautiful work with a mouse, but sadly, I haven't seen her do any art for quite some time now. It always blows my mind to see such things done with a mouse, though, when I can barely even get used to a tablet pen. xD

no brush sets here :C I just find random swirls on da/google XD I just use w/e PS comes with. i'm not a big fan of editing brushes/dling them D: i just change opacity o 3o""

Seems you have quite a line ^^
I'm gonna sneak in here and try to save my spot lol. I ADORE b&w artwork. And yours is very neat and very simple.
So my Ritualist-Purgatory Hyena (female)
I do believe my ele, Frost, has had enough of the lime light for a bit
I'll update with info soon.

Not too sure if there's a way to "normalize" your visual settings to match a certain standard that's used widely. Anyways, it's a good idea to always check your monitor's settings every now and then.
As for brushes, I suggest also playing around with the sub-settings in the brush menu. They can make a lot of cool effects like repeating patterns, or more natural strokes.
Aside from that, keep up the nice work.
