Yea, my half-decent sketches, and some rants and went along with them. I like them (both the pictures and the rants). Some are my RP characters, some /was/ going to be my RP characters, some are just boredom.
Clemence Lowe, at age 18. She's like, 24 now. I should make more pics of her. From Dawnrose. Nick said she looks sinister... I thought she was just serious ^^|||
Razz, a slightly more mature version, maybe I'll make it her Water Champ pic (uhm... I'll shade her pupils in to make her look blind or something ^^|||)... oh, bah, I forgot the rune mark on her forehead T__T. Anyways, I was thinking about Yuna from FFX and Yumi from Rounin Kenshin... This is the result.
Shiroi Kirameki, from Saint Tempus Memoria Academy. She r0x0rs. Though I'm not really happy with this pic... yeah I did it a long time ago, but still =P I actually had one where she was in a similiar pose wearing a summer dress... I loved that... BUT I LOST IT!!! *cries her eyes out*
A mermaid and a butterfly in human form... they actually belong to the RP universe of the Mystic Realm (yeah, i know, creative, ain't it?). They're both royal subjects under the ruler of the light side (yes, dark and light, just like the force, or duct tape, whichever you prefer), the Phoenix (note how I capitalized the P). I no longer write for the universe, mainly because the Phoenix has committed suicide. Well, not really, she just reincarnated into Shiroi Kirameki in STMA. Anyways, I like how the sketchs turned out. Pretty.
Razz crying on Justin's shoulder... I /really/ don't like how this one turned out. /Really/. Neither of them look the way that they're suppose to. Hmm.
Razz in JUSTICE mood. Hoo yeah. Betcha all thought she was only cute, cuddly, and... *cough*stupid*cough* NAIVE, didn't ya?
Justin, from EF. A face shot. Nearly drove me insane sketching it (I had no experience with seriously trying to draw guys before), good thing it was late into the night. I liked it lots, even though it has its flaws. I think I'll fix it a bit more up some day. I also just realized that I forgot to mention that Justin is not mine, but Nick's. ^^|||
Lileth, the runic knight from Fantasy Dreams. Another guy that I drew after midnight. I like him lots too ^___^. He has a very cliched secret, but I like him that way... *glares at DF* so SHADDAP! MUWAHAHA!
Some girl from Angelic Layers, I messed her up, though. Oh well. I just wanted to draw something. I liked how the wet clothing turned out, though. Not the rain, the rain s0x0red. Oh, yeah, the boots are definitely the best feature of this pic.
Razz again. There's actually this whole (and unlikely) plot behind this pic, but it's kinda stupid, so I'm not explaining it. Just look at the nice pic.
Razz, from Eternal Fantasy. The very first pic I ever drew of her. I actually wasn't really going to make any official pics for her, but she turned out so well at the first go that I couldn't help but make more pics of her ^___^. That must be one of the reasons why I like her so much! *cuddles Razz* She's sooo cute and sooo easy to draw! But anyways, you'll note that she has a chocobo in the pic. In Razz's /very first/ RP session, she walked in on a buncha people who were talking about going to some place to protect some dragon from the Crusaders. Does Razz know what's going on? Not at all! But for some reason Mirai gave her a chocobo so she could follow, and, being very typical of Razz, the dumbas- I mean innocent and easily confused - elf girl promptly got lost. So since then and before she met Justin, she's wandering around looking for Mirai so she can give her chocobo back ^^|||.
Razz and Justin. Two proportion figures that got clothing and faces added onto them. Though I was acting on misguided judgement when I made the proportions. The way I thought it, I'm 5'3 (at least, I /hope/ I am) and Jeff's 6', the same heights as Razz and Justin, right? And my eyes come up to Jeff's shoulder, right? T___T I forgot I was wearing high footwear. Bah. Anyways, I /really/ like how Razz's rune mark turned out in this pic ^^ but Justin doesn't look like that at all, the only thing that makes this Justin Justin is that he dresses like him =P.
Razz, right after that traumatizing incident at the Tree of Pain. T___T MY POOR BABY... but you have to admit how good she looks in this pic being so sad and vulnerable *drool*. Oh yeah, that's Justin's coat that she's wearing. No, she's not wearing anything underneath it. Yes, I'm a pervert =P
Razz, miscarrying her child. SO SAD. Huh? Why did I do this? Well, I'd just finished taking SAT IX, I was bored, and I was drawing a buncha Razzs, and the image of a SAD LITTLE RAZZ AND BLOOD just CALLED to me... Huh? Why did I do I mistreat my character so? Well, the plot's far more interesting this way, don't you think? What's that? I'm a sicko? Hell no, just a psycho pervert ^0^!
Vivi, from FFIX, casting a flame spell. Beware, it's a huge ass pic. It's one of my best pics, though. I love how it turned out ^__^ I drew it while watching a FFIX music video. "Elevation", it was. I had some trouble drawing the spell, what with the light being computer generated and all, but I figured something out and it still looks great! In my not so humble opinion, anyways.
Aah, the Winged Girl... I love her so much, there's just no way to describe it. She's actually the cover of my US History project, hence the 'Happy B-Day USA', but yea, I still love her >___< SO CUTE and SO PRETTY. I accidentally bended the paper before I could scan it, though T___T
Serah Tolwyn, from STMA as well. It's not really my first pic of her, but I lost the first pic. Too bad, I like that first pic better too. Then again, this is cool too. Kinda.
Some girl. Just... some girl. And she's crouching. Has a necklace that might be Shiroi's. Not sure, though.
A chemistry safety lab poster, starring Trowa Barton and Wufei Chang. P|-|34R. Possibly the only colored pic this entire page will have.
Poor Widdle Razz. Nick gives it a "SO CUTE, an' stuff."
Serah Tolwyn, at age 14, I think. Kicking off her time as a exchange student to Germany by breaking Poor Bastard's wrist! Moral of the story - never threaten Serah. It's unhealthy.
My first try of Mirai Sekenneri, also from EF. She's not mine, she's Nick's. We were shifting through this great site (www.mutedfaith.com)filled with fantastic RPG humor and art when some of the pics reminded him of Mirai, which he pointed out and asked me to draw a pic for Mirai. And so I did... even though I have no clear clue exactly what Mirai's suppose to look like... Hence the psuedo-failure of this pic as a protrait of Mirai ^^||| Nick thought she might be too tall, and that her robe is all wrong, but he liked the sword! Meh. At least I got the face and hair right.
The REAL Mirai Sekenneri. It's almost the same as the picture above, except that I've altered her attires somewhat. Nick is happy with the picture now. Yay. ...Mirai would make a very drool-worthy bishounen, wouldn't she? Hehehehe... *drool*
Rathe and Suzuran , also from Eternal Fantasy. Cool couple, my favorite couple, in fact, out of the whole mud. Granted, I don't know many couples in that mud, but that doesn't stop me from thinking they're cool =P Rathe is kewl =^.^= and Suzu kicks ass *_* what more can you ask for? Anyways, neither of these character are mine. Rathe belongs to Judy, a /very/ decent writer, and Suzu belongs to Wave, a similarly decent artist *_* Truly decent, truly. Check out her awesome art here! --> Wave's Place . Anyways, I jumped all over the house when Wave deemed me worthy to draw rathey and suzu *BEAM*. This scene is taken from one of suzu's logs - the part that she and Judy cut out =P Really, what's the point in having those scenes if you don't /write/ them? ... Then again, I would say that, because I'm a psycho pervert!!! *evil shameless cackle* I love this pic, I do.
A Razz bmp sorta thing. I was content with merely writing RPGs and sketching the characters out by hand occassionally... until one day Teivin opened my eyes to RPGmaker 2000 and Character Mucker!!! I was overwhelmed by the possibilities, but I should've known that a mind as simple as mine should be content with what I have and not venture into deeper waters... OH GOD THE TORTURE, I NEED A TUTORIAL, SOMEONE MAKE THIS CONFUSION STOOOOOP!!!!
Shiroi in a bridesmaid's dress. That's right, folks, she quit St. Tempus Memoria Academy and joined Eternal Fantasy. Quite a leap, really, she likes it much better here without... bah. The GM was a friend of mine, I'll save it. *shakes head* Anyways, I like the pic, inspired by flipping through a Bride's magazine. Nice dress, eh?
Faceless Shiroi in a French Maid's outfit. No, it's not trashy, it's cute, but decent. Stop assuming that just because she likes to let everybody think that she's been around, she wouldn't be caught dead in something remotely decent =P.
Razz running forward to stop someone/thing. A simple sketch I made while bored in Biology. I despise biology. I despise ap biology even more. And statistics. Motherfuckers.
Razz in Darkwood. Nice long white gown. Ripped off wholesale from Ayashi no Ceres, also worn by a character who's being exploited for the power that she can wield. Isn't Razz cute? She's slowly starting to come back to me again... couldn't draw her right for the longest time... Aha, so I was right. Justin /was/ a bad influence on her, teaching her to rebel against me... heh. Well, now he's in a coma.... *grins*
Shiroi again, walking naked in the wind. Was pondering her inner being yesterday, having played her as her evil self. At one point she mentioned to Alfghar that she'd lied so much that sometimes even she herself can't remember exactly what's real and what's not. It got me thinking of her history as my character, starting for the innocent little hatchling to the selfish deranged liar/killer. Even Shiroi, who crushes fuzzy animals with her bare hands for fun, might have a side of her that would like to be free from all her facades, hence the sketch.
Shiroi again, a negated picture of the one above, with a wing attached. Besides the fact that it looks nifty, the inspiration for its creation involved more delving into her psyche. The two pics put together represents the part of herself that's human (or Shiroi) and the other part that was the phoenix (better known in past RPs as the slayer). The phoenix, in comparison to Shiroi, is darker, angrier, more mysterious, and keeps more to herself. Yet the phoenix is also more accepting and understanding of its own nature and longings compared to Shiroi in her state of self-denial. Anyhow, it's a nifty picture, or so I've been told.
Razz! Wrapped in a trenchcoat that is obviously several sizes too large for her! HOW CUTE. For an explanation as to how she came to possess the coat, see the log titled 'I know the difference between schizophrenia and multiple personalities'. Her face looks somewhat different from both the normal Razz and the Justice Razz, as it really is a combination between the two. Looks more mature than the normal Razz, and less merciless than the Justice Razz. 'course, there's really more significance to this sketch than just what Razz is wearing at the moment. It's a kickass trenchcoat that resembles a power that really doesn't fit her, however she tries to stand up to it... then again, she just looks SO CUTE buried in that thing. HEEHEE.
Justin's profile. I'd swear, Justin hates me, he never wants to cooperate whenever I try to draw him. Anyhow, I just have a hard time drawing profiles. So I was looking at some ass-kicking artworks one day and found some that might match Justin's profile. Even after gathering up all the reference artworks and sketches that I have of Justin, he still refuses to be drawn right. Then I theatened to post him even if he makes himself look gay... worked like a charm. I'm rather happy with the result.
Sumiko!!! *squeezes the addictive Sumiko stuffy, because it's so unlawfully cute* The adorable six-year-old, yet another gift art for Wave. I just really need to draw something that I know how to draw after numerous failed attempts at Shiroi. Granted, I've never attempted Sumiko before, but Suzuran was surprisingly cooperative the last time I drew her, so how hard can her six-year-old self be? Thank God I wasn't proven wrong, saying that tends to jinx things. Anyhow, I just kept on wondering exactly what changed the sweet innocent Sumiko into Suzuran the assassin... though in my humble opinion, Suzuran is pretty sweet and innocent herself too. The vague idea of Sumiko being led out of the place she knew into the harsh world that'll mold her into Suzuran was what sparked the picture.
A girl that I sketched while being bored in... one class or another. Oh, right, statistics. Got a new sketchbook for my birthday, and Nikki swiped it to see what I drew. Then she asked me to draw then and there, so I did. She turned out really well, I think, for a free hand sketch. I like her quite a lot. The picture's kinda grainy since the sketchbook has 'lightly' textured sheets.
E'hae Ac'mell and Ander Argent, characters from a pilot candidate/canddiate for goddess/megami kouhosei fanfic universe. Same anime, not a crossover. I congratulate myself on being able to draw two people together on one sheet of paper and have their proportions /fit/. I can't ever do that with Justin and Razz, Razz always come out tiny. Anyhow, Ander is a pilot candidate and E'hae's his repairer. 70% of Ander's body mass are occupied by mechanical automation, thought it doesn't show in this picture. I'm not going to attempt it until I get some good cyborg picture for reference, either. I wimped out on E'hae's legs, they refuse to come out right. A good artist knows when to stop, after all =P. Anyhow, I love this picture, most excellent by my standards. No, I didn't draw this completely free-hand, what are you, crazy?! Another thing, the taller person in the jacket is a GIRL, a GIRL I tell you!!! She has a chest! So it happens to be a B cup that she's wearing a jacket over, but she has it! The shorter person beside her, on the other hand, DO NOT! Not even if you look at it upside-down! Geez!
Shiroi! Got inspired after RPing her for a couple sessions and listening to a couple songs. I started out wanting to draw a really creepy shot of her with the words "I /covet/..." in the background, but she wasn't in the mood. Still, the picture actually came out half-decent! Yay! I can count on an amputated hand of the number of times she actually decided to cooperate and get put down on paper! Ahem. I like this piccie lots ^^
Colored version of the above pic! I liked the sketch /that/ much! Besides, I thought the emphasis of her outfit is under-represented in a black and white sketch =P. T_T Coloring is hard work to me... really. Why else do you think the only other colored pic is a poster I made for a chemistry project? Anyways, this /has/ to be one of my best works, it just /has/ to be!!! T___T I'm so proud of myself! Thanks to Wave for reminding me how to adjust the layer to line art and Natdog for his continual support of Shiroi =D And for being the only one who voted in the deciding ballat for whether or not Shiroi should get nipples in color! XP VOTE PEOPLE! IT ACTUALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE!
Razz stuffy! "Razz" is synonymous with "SO CUTE".
Summer! A character from the one chinese RPG that I still play in... Three Eye Fortune (though I'd always thought it translates to Three Eye Legend. Oh well, small difference). In a nutshell, she's prototype Shiroi, with less angst (one syllable, one syllable...), less attitude, and a lot less god-like mad stomper skills. Summer's a knife dancer with some basic hypnotic abilities, ran away from home because of a curse that got handed down to her due to some lover's feud between her ancestors, her similarly cursed aunt is looking for her, blah, blah, blah. The RPG got kicked back to life a couple days back and I got INSPIRED, and since I never drew a picture of her (created her from the days when my drawings still make myself staaaaaaare in horror), I figured I might as well get something to put up on the RPG site. The result turned out so well that I decided to put it here, too. ^^ Hope you all like it, I certainly think of it as one of my best works.
Clyde, in all his bandage sekushiiness! It cost me considerable less time than I thought it would... Most of Irene's character are very cooperative to draw. Now if only all my other characters would do the same... Anyhow, this was a gift art to Irene! Well, my first was a profile of Clyde that was absolute suckage, so I drew this one to make up for that... Was inspired after flipping through my Anayami Rei art book. I know, you can't tell, can you? =P
Velias vs. Shiroi! Quite a nice little piece for my first dynamic(ish) action art, if I do say so myself. Now, if only Velias didn't insist on being absolutely difficult while I was drawing him, I might've enjoyed myself more. Nonetheless, I'm still quite happy with the way the piece came out... I say that, now that I've managed to clean up all the smudge on photoshop x_XXXX. It's hard between deciding whether to wipe the whole thing clean or keep certain shadings... BLARGH describes my sentiments then quite well, really.
Kuchiki Rukia, female lead of Bleach, a manga by Kubo Tite (Taito) that I'd recently gotten obsessed with. Consequently, she's also the reason why I'm obsessed with the manga. Tiny badass yet sometimes clueless asian chicks, my favorite. I'm going to try to draw more of her in the future.
My reaction upon hearing that Bleach is licensed by Viz. While I don't mind that more people will have access and be able to support the manga, I did want to have read Toriyamaworld's scanlations on volume 6-7 before they discontinued it due to Bleach being licensed. I have nothing against buying the manga on my own, but I've heard that Viz can't translate for shit. And I really like Bleach, especially the crucial parts from volume 6 to 7, where Rukia gets arrested by Soul Society and all that. I'm already better, but the moment the news was confirmed, I just wanted to tear my own face off. Anyways, I also think that the people that tell you to express your anger to get it off of your chest don't know what the hell they're talking about. Doing this only exemplified my anger at the time. And I don't think that my friends will have a great time to know that I was unhappy. But anyways, I like how this piece turned out. So look at it like art.
SHIROI. I keep on looking at what art I have of Shiroi and think "You know, none of these pictures /really/ bring out the way that I see Shiroi." Anyhow, this is another attempt at bringing out the real Shiroi, and quite a good one too. Though I suspect I'll never find the pic that I'll be able to point at and say "SHIROI!!!" while jumping up and down. Well, not in the sense that it truely captures Shiroi in my mind, anyways. I like the hand in this one. And the blood. I should make more of Shiroi now that I have the time.
Well, that's all. Yea.
