FINALLY DONE GUYS!!

...and just in time too, I have that nasty habit of cutting deadlines close... I only had 3 or more days left..

So this is Renu! He's the persona representing the group and this is my contest entry for their Dress-up contest! ;u;

Yeah I was just looking at the entries so far and was like "AH! no winter clothes?!" and had to do something of the sort. But unfortunately I have such a wierd taste in fashion and style that this turned out a bit odd on him...

I was going for the winter clothes with a hint of alaskan native american tint to it, there's a random dream catcher keychain on his jeans and some beads on the ear muffs!

oh and Zoom in people! not in the bg, because it sucks, but on his upper body please ;x; I totally had a ball with all the effects.. like the hair, the fur, scarf and feathers... but I think the eyes look nice too..

Look guys a non-lazy bg for once! ;x; It was done all by hand, not by fancy effects and brushes alone... and it took a bit less time than Renu himself... I kind of did them separately so they dont match up right, but oh well, its a start. O___O;

I've never done perspective in a picture since... *shivers*
THAT drawing of kaisei> [link] ....get it away from me....

Constructive criticism on how to get better at perspective and legs would be very appreciated! QAQ

XD ...I actually made a bg for once! woo! ..now I think I'll consider them beforehand, you know? OUO

Feathers and fluff are so fun to draw ;u; but I love the earmuffs! XD

I've learned from a lot of critiques that the perspective is off though but thanks so much cooky!!! QAQ

OH MY GODLYNESS!!! This is so awesome, I love the detail you did on the background it looks beautiful.

awesome job on the character too, I noticed you made 2 seperate drawings one of the background and one of just the character, so i'm guessing you did this in layers.

Pheoniic In reply to wsnr92 [2011-08-18 05:40:41 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so much! QUQ

Yes, well obviously I did It in layers since thats what photoshop is for after all. And I listed it at the bottom. But I know what you are getting at! I did end up putting the...
-Effects
-Character
-Bg
...In different "folders"

Pheoniic In reply to LeNiMu [2011-08-18 05:46:12 +0000 UTC]

GAH I'm so glad I have your approval!!

Yes, I swear I loved Renu the second I looked at him because of those mis-matching eyes and his blonde hair! He bore a striking resemblance to my main character.. Hes just so cute. He deserved awesome winter clothes. =u=

Lol yes, my wierd new style >A<; I tried to keep his qualities the same with his nose and facial orientation. I also used the colors from the ref sheet ;u;

Thanks! ....for some reason I submitted it but its not in the contest entry thing.. maybe no one has approved it yet? oAo; I hope they get it received in time!
