Description Make of it what you will.



----------------

I don't like this one as much as the Silence pic that I made, but I felt it was necesary to keep up my skill so I dont' get PS retarded.

Really hated working on the body, so I worked on and off on this pic since sunday. Dunno how long I took on this one. I seriously slacked off o the BG in this one. Lets just say they're in the artic abyss...Yeah, since canary's live in the artic.

I need to upload my characters.........
They're cool. no seriously, they are. I have:


MasQueRaid
INK
Gasmask
Jekyll
and Poker and Fake which r Griffins

I'll post pics as soon as i get them off of the school camera. Moving is HELL, and I still haven't found all my stuff.


I miss you! Christine, jen, shelby, Ashley, elizabeth, and everyone else T~T


************BTW, feedback is much appreciated since this may go into my college portfolio. My concentration is bones, structure, and stuff like that.

I really like the creature's structure. You got the muscle and bone structure perfectly. I like the way you got the neck and jaw to stretch at just the right places. It looks like you captured the struggle in the portrait very well.

It's that straining with it's neck. I can almost see it shaking, so gluttonous for it's meal. The eyes help too. We have allot of ravens where I live. They do that.

Great job on this - I love the colors and, well, the humor.

I don't have many suggestions, as I'm not well versed on the anatomy of giant evil worm-lookin' things, but the bulge that's especially highlighted (on the part of the neck just after the lower jaw) doesn't look like it should be there. I think he should be sleeker, without neck-bulges.

Shapooda In reply to Revonael [2008-01-01 05:33:26 +0000 UTC]

yeah, that whole part wasn't so good. lets leave it at that <( thanks for the advice <3

kurohakumei [2007-12-03 05:26:32 +0000 UTC]

Of course canaries live in the arctic! Duh!

This made me laugh really hard. It probably shouldn't have, but it did. It is well done, and I like the er, antenna thingies (I can't think of a better word, I know it's not that... sorry XD). But, I hope everything turns out okay for the birdies. ^_^

And I miss you too! Tell me if you are ever free on a weekend or something. I'd love to see you. Do you like your new house? Call me sometime, okay? I miss you...

Shapooda In reply to kurohakumei [2007-12-04 03:58:05 +0000 UTC]

me too <( I miss you lots, but I haven't had time to really see anyone because we still have to move all the crap outta our old house so we can sell it.....all by ourselves >< My back hurts.

I haven't returned your calls for the same reason i always don't <3 I look at my ohone at like 10:30 at night, or I don't charge it.......

I'll send you my home phone number in a note, k?


-------I thought of the antenna thingies kinda like lionfish poison barbs, you know?

kurohakumei In reply to Shapooda [2007-12-06 03:33:10 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, barbs are more like it. I like how they look, I just couldn't recall the word for them... so I used a different one that would get the point across. XD

Well, good luck with packing. I'm sure that isn't fun. I hope it gets easier... and thank you for the phone number. And don't worry about the phone, I know you're busy. Just good luck with everything, okay? I'll talk to you soon, I hope.

thank you! I have a graphite version of this that I made in class with 12 eyes; it's pretty cool. I'm so much better with pencil than w/color. Stupid rainbow.
