Description Little thing I did...that became a bit bigger than I had planned.

Old sketch I did for my commission examples, I tweaked it a bit while inking.

I realize that I could have added more items....a lot more. But I didn't, I tried to keep this as simple as possible.

The grass and sky are a little Skyward Sword inspired, I am happy about the new art direction. Impressionism is perhaps one of my favourite painting styles and the way I paint generally hints at it. I love how it is bright, colourful and messy. Mixing paint on the actual canvas is awesome.

Good job Nintendo.

Made to print as 4x6 prints for AN11, but it's sorta nice, so I might do some 8x10s too.

Really good, makes me think of the Smosh 'Legend of Zelda Rap' ironically, that's because I was listening to it while viewing this. Awesome though, you made a clear picture and it looked as if you made a lighting contrast on more reflectively positioned parts.

I also like Link's expression.

I have so MANY to do D:

Thought I would get Zelda out of the way first. I have one more to do, which will be my 11x17 print/poster. It's going to look really nice.


UGH, ARTIST ALLEY IS DRIVING ME INSANE, I AM PLANNING TOO MUCH.

BUT I HAVE TOO, I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF TIME!

I have everything planned out, I even have directions to the closest staples(from the TCC) for printing emergencies. I need to order bags, build my pvc rig, draw everything.... and a shit ton of other things.

I'd rather plan now, instead of scramble at the end

Really? LOL!

I guess I am just full of epic powers which ooze out of my drawings.

Next Zelda art will be VERY epic.

Omigosh - he's so beautiful! And your colouring is seriously incredible, how do you do it?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

ElizaLento In reply to LightningMcTurner [2010-08-24 14:34:14 +0000 UTC]

On the clothes? New technique. I just do the flats, shade some browns and blues in the shadows (this is an example for the pants) and then create an overlay layer, use black for shadows and white for light/highlights.

THEN I create another overlay layer and spam with colours, bright greens, blues, purples, reds, yellows. And this is what makes the cool effect

The face is a long developed technique that I actually have a tutorial in my gallery for, except now I add more detail.

Thanks

Thanks, this is super helpful - it really is very cool coluring. I'll check out the tutorial for the face colouring too.

Cheers.
