Description I must be an owl (or a vampire) because I get the best inspiration at night... Finished this drawing at about 3 in the morning, and I'm rather proud of it.

splendido effetto fusione con lo sfondo... ecco, sono quelle cose che non mi deciderΓ² MAI a provare... ma che rendono davvero da dio

E' quella l'idea che mi Γ¨ venuta dopo mezzanotte... Siccome nella foto alcune parti sono completamente nere (colore dello sfondo), ho pensato di mantenere l'effetto senza appesantire troppo il tutto. Quindi anzichΓ© colorare prima le ombre, come faccio di solito, ho lasciato il colore del fondo e ho dipinto solo le parti illuminate. ^^

In that case, we're both owls or vampires, because I work best at night.
I think it's simply because there isn't the hustle and bustle and restless energy in the night, as there is in the daytime.
The world becomes a much more calm, serene place at night, thus giving us the calm and peace to focus on working.

Gorgeous Ollie drawing, I love it.

Wow, this is really great!
But the bass is a bit too short, there are not enough frets on the neck, there should be 5 more
But nevermind

I'm not THAT picky, I never count them

Mave221B In reply to whiteshaix [2012-04-22 17:22:57 +0000 UTC]

uh, sorry ^.^'
I also wouldn't count them if it was a guitar, but I play bass myself, that's why I noticed it

Well, I play the piano, but I'm not sure I'd count the keys in a piano drawing, honestly
Next time I'll be more accurate, anyway. ^^

Mave221B In reply to whiteshaix [2012-04-22 22:48:07 +0000 UTC]

uhm...I normally I wouldn't do that as well, but I just noticed that the neck seems to be a bit short
It's still a very nice picture!

Yeah, I just discovered that drastically limiting my palette and painting only the highlighted areas works well for this kind of fanart. ^^
