Description 's Elvaan skullcracker, Katinka.

Not pictured: the bow Katinka beat Deveret up for.

Tinks always complained about never getting to wear any pants. This terrible punishment, apparently, extends to my doodle of her. The horror!

Note the long, graceful Elvaan neck, and the long, lever-like Elvaan limbs, and the huge Elvaan gaps between arm and torso, and the broad, feminine Elvaan hips.

You are amazingly talented. I went through your whole gallery and was amazed at the detail you gave in character background as well as your drawings. This one..is my favorite.

Ah, it's not so much talent as having a lot of time on your hands, really.

But thank you all the same! I'm glad you liked it, and I'm sure nitocris is too.

hhheey, what did you say about her hips!? And yes, pants would have been nice for her, at least while we were in those snowy areas..not everyone has a fine coat of hair, like Finniksa.

..Aside from that! Beautiful, as usual! I love it when people draw my characters, it's really cool.

Giving me impetus to draw more, eh?

Seriously, Tinks did have broad hips. She was a hawtee.

Well I guess your character's head was at hip-height, so there's nothing wrong with staring if it's always in your face. Shorty.

....your styles original, Period. I seriouslt like the dark armor or pale skin and platinum hair...they contrast well...and that extra attention to detail with the minor elvan attributes tied in to the concept shows just how attentive you are to detail...well done..and i gotta say that sycthe....pure badass...

Very nice, I wish I could draw armor like that. You do, however, suffer from the same problem I do when drawing a static pose. the legs tend to drift to the left or to the right. Mine generally drift to the left, because of the motion of my hand as it draws on the paper. but the problem is you have a curve on the left leg that pulls it back, while also giving it the impression of being vertical. Standing would also be a problem here. And I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you're a fan of Amano. If you are, you're doing a good job of imitating his style.

I am, but I wasn't aware I was imitating his style.

And, looking at it, you're pretty dead-on about the legs. The legs' stance was intentional though - the curve of the shins was not.

RufusDarkstar In reply to sediment [2004-05-28 21:01:07 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, the way the hair falls and the build of the body screams Amano at me. Its not a bad thing, you have your own flair in it, too.

Wow! Excellent colors. It's too bad Tink never got to wear anything that schnazzy! I like how your colors look like a mixture of sandsculptures and watercolor. Like a granular, soft watercolor or something - if that makes sense.

One of these days I'm gonna try mixing salt in with watercolours, and see how horribly awful it looks.

'til then I'll stick with noisy CG.
