LOL. OMGWTF. Chade drawing a human???~~~???!!!!! What?
On the other hand. It's beautiful. The shading is so striking and well done. And you've given everything so much texture. The folds are also very fold-y. Quite a successful piece.

Yeah, I know... it's kind of weird. O_o
There's like... a LOT of texture in the original that I tried to at least hint at. Glad it sort of worked!
Yay for foldy folds!
Thanks a lot, imoto-chan!

Beautiful work! *hey look, I appeared again!*
I love the shading and Assassin's Creed is so cool and I wish that I'd ever played it or seen it be played, it looks so pretty. (:

Dazers! You exist! Wheee!
Thanks a lot!
Assassin's Creed is quite a fun game. Hope you get a chance to play it someday

Ooh....love the crosshatchy-ness of the material...I think the folds look great.
You draw better with a tablet than I do....teach me! ;_;

Very nice detail. I like how you made it look realistic.

Thank you! It's kind of funny since most of the detail was just me madly adding dots everywhere at random

Well adding dots is a kind of shading method as well as a detail method so you did a very nice job. Trust me, I know, I go to college for art hahah.

Awrr... thanks! Someday I'd love to get to actually take an art class. It'd be really helpful

*bows dramatically* Thank you, thank you.
Really, though, thanks, Cali!
... I just realized I've been pronouncing your name wrong in my head all this time. D'oh! It sounds so much cooler the right way

Never played this game, but this is awesome.
And WRINKLES ARE SO HARDER THAN FACES. I dunno what it is about them, but wrinkles are ridiculous.
And I see what you're saying with the tablet. I just got one.... and it is way weird. They should make it so you can see what you drew on the surface which you are drawing. Because I said so.
Right. Well, love the contrast.

Thanks a lot! It's a good game. They did an astounding job artistically.
Wrinkles ARE really hard. You never accidentally forget an eye or something, but it's easy to miss an important shadow in a fold or something, and somehow, people can tell when it doesn't look right!
There actually are tablet thingies where you can see what you're drawing. I got to try one once. It was SOOOO cool. It even had a nice textury feel.
There's a lot of things I'm used to with paper that you just can't do with a tablet like really finely control the thickness and smudginess of a line, but the biggest things that get me are the slippery texture, and the fact I tend to actually rotate the paper a lot instead of my arm when I'm drawing, and you can't do that with a tablet and still draw straight!

You mean like the Wacom Cintiqs? xP Have LCD's inside 'em.
Unfortunately, they happen to cost an unsurprising $1000. >_>
What I, however, think that tablets need is... specially textured surfaces to mimic that of paper and graphite. Mmm...

o_o Dang.
I have a wamcom bamboo, and it has a textured surface to feel like paper, supposedly. ..And actually it kind of does. It's not all smooth and nasty, at least. Ees nice.

o.O
*cries*
I've asked and looked around about the differences between the various Wacom tablets, and have never heard of that feature. x_X
The Intuos comes with extra pen-tips for the stylus, including an extra "rough" one, but the tablet itself is still too smooth for it to feel right. =\

A trick I've seen some people do with success is simply put a piece of paper of the tablet. It actually helps a lot with the texture, and it's cheaper than getting a new tablet

Eh, I'm always uncomfortable with doing those kinds of things.
Seriously, just about ANY kind of improvisation of material-usage I attempt inevitably ends up in failure, somehow or other, so I've just stopped trying. xP
