Description


Here is a kiriban prize for who captured my 30 000th pageview!
She asked me to create a character for her based on her dog, certain color palette and some other attributes. This picture is a bit darker than the palette she gave me – thanks to scanner...

Ok, so here is the creature I came up with: the astral dog!
This creature can teleport from place to another and while he does that the colorful aura appears to the place he leaves and to the place he appears.

=Wovenwuff can add other skills etc. to this character – whatever she wants!

I love the tail. Also, all the tufts of blue fur along the back and feet are nice. <3

I really love how smooth the coloring on his hive is, love the tail and the horns are soo cool.

Have you played with the alcohol technique on background? If you have, really awesome!

Agaave In reply to almaticani [2010-10-27 14:41:04 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a lot!

I didn't use alcohol for this piece; at first I tried to make some salt patterns but they looked horrible with so many pastel colors so I splattered more colors on it with toothbrush.

That background is such an explosion so it would be really difficult spot any sense from it.

almaticani In reply to Agaave [2010-11-02 16:24:22 +0000 UTC]

nah, the background is okay. It made sense, I just over analyze.^^

Nothing bad at over analyzing - mostly it is just fun.

That little beastie looks very unique! I like those horn-looking scales near its head
I wish I could teleport like that! It would make my life easier

Mitä ihmettä käytät värittämiseen kun tulee tuollainen tasainen, pehmeä väri?? :--o On se upea

Agaave In reply to Isohukka [2010-10-25 16:55:09 +0000 UTC]

Kiitos!

Salaisuus on niinkin yksinkertainen kuin Promarkerit! Väritin niillä ötökän pohjan ja varjostin puuväreillä päälle. Taustassa on pelkkää vesiväriä.

Ooh! Jännä tekniikka..

Agaave In reply to Isohukka [2010-10-27 14:37:41 +0000 UTC]

Mutta hyvin yksinkertainen.
Ja skanneriystävällinen myös, ainakaan mun skanneri ei aina tykkää pelkistä puuväreistä, mutta kun laittaa alle väriä joko tusseilla tai vesiväreillä, niin skannautuu paljon nätimmin.

This is made of awesome! thank you so much <3 Im lovin the dragon tail and the fluffy paws, the colouring turned out great and the blue just makes him stand out all the more.

Looks like you had fun with that background. You have to teach me to colour sometime ^^

Love it <3

(you know whats funny, teleportation has always been my choice of power)

Agaave In reply to Wovenwuff [2010-10-25 16:53:57 +0000 UTC]

I am glad to hear that you like!
And it is nice co-incidence that I happened to choose your fav power for him!

I really had fun with the background, although it also caused me some troubles: at first I tried to make some watercolor + salt patterns but it ended up looking like someone puked a rainbow on the paper... so I rescued the bg by splattering some colors on it with toothbrush. Rainbow explosion looks much better!

It really isn't difficult, just crap your watercolors and test what happens!

If so, what do you mean by this?

Agaave In reply to Wovenwuff [2010-11-15 15:10:47 +0000 UTC]

Lol, me and my English! It should be "grap" not "crap"!
Sorry for causing missunderstanding - always feel free to ask if I say something weird, it is probably just spelled wrong.
