Description The preliminary sketch for my trade with :devmegadeth1573: of her and her mate. ~2 hours. I don't know why it took so long. Yes, it is a rather unoriginal composition (I have a necklace like this), but I like it. Adobe PhotoShop 7.0. 20.

Aww... Well... If you have any cool ideas that just happen to strike my fancy, I may just do them out of my wanting to do them for my own sake.

Thank you very much It'll probably be a while. I've gotten into detailing them, and it's taking forever X3

I know what you mean, for all preliminary sketches take too long, sometimes longer than the actual shading and stuff! Trying to get the anatomy right is a pain for me, lots of erasing. I really like that necklace style, it's really nice. So far it looks great, can't wait to see the final one.

Hehehe, yep. Although it pays off if you invest a lot of time in getting the "blueprints" right - you don't have to worry about your image collapsing in on itself later X3. It's just a matter of finishing the building... err... painting...

And thank you

Don't remind me, lol, I have had tons of trouble in my digital drawings when the blueprints aren't refined and I gotta fix stuff later on, screws it up . This is why in the one I'm working now I made sure to make good "blueprints" (although now that I'm coloring I see mistakes with anatomy ). That's a good comparison, a building has to have strong foundations for it to rise and be strong and so does a drawing

The actual file is much larger in size, and I plan on detailing and such... I hope you don't mind if I take a little artistic liberty with your chars...?
