For a redraw/recolor of Jill from Fire Emblem 9, it's pretty good. The background is far and away the most successful part. The trees are so vibrant and natural, and I love the mountain in the far back.

Beautiful work, and such a nice gift to give to your daughter! It's funny, because I've actually started a painting myself and it's for my mom, LOL!

I'm using acrylics btw, do you have any useful tips you can give me?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Artsy50 In reply to NaurCalad [2010-02-17 13:04:40 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! She was opposed to the idea, but she did end up suggesting all the different types of weaponry I should put in her arsenal. ...she loves her weapons!

I'm sure your mom will love it!

Tips on using acrylics, hmmmm, anything in particular you'd like to know? All I can really say is, practice, practice, practice! I never had any formal training, except highschool, and that was many moons ago... I picked up acrylics only about 15 years ago,(gosh that sounds like a long time when you see it in print! ) I sort of taught myself. I like them because you can paint over your mistakes pretty easily, and the fact that they dry pretty quick. I will check out your gallery and see how you're doing with them.

Wow I've been wondering when this one would get finished.

I love for the detail on the dragon and armor.It's definitly Tawny's theme =]

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Artsy50 In reply to aesculus [2009-07-01 11:55:08 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! It's been done for a few weeks actually, guess you didn't notice You should come and see it in person, the detail's much better up close, the photo doesn't do it justice...

Tawny does love her sharp pointy things doesn't she?

aesculus In reply to Artsy50 [2009-07-01 16:14:58 +0000 UTC]

I'll probably be dropping by in august with a bunch of freshly picked apricots from my backyard. I definitly would like to see the painting in person. I've only seen it twice when I was over and both times the girl wasn't painted. Neither was part of the middle ground if I remember correctly.

Yes, I definitly wouldn't be surprised if there was a halibeard in that particular style in her room. heh heh.

PS this is Lee by the way

We'll be happy to see you...and yes I realized it was you Lee when I repied earlier...

We would welcome the apricots! The cherries on our cherry tree are almost ready... Should really get to them before the birds do... lol See you then!

Zeimyth [2009-06-04 08:27:41 +0000 UTC]

You finished it.

Never would have seen the cat if you hadn't pointed it out. XD Funny, my cat's name is Shadow, too. It's such an uncommon name for black cats, you know...

I could try to come up with a name... I usually do good once I have the first letter. Any idea what first letter she looks like she gets? XD

Or you can check my personal "cheat sheet" at my Dragoncave scroll if you want to just mix, mingle, and match a few possibilities. I don't know if they'll fit what you had in mind though.

Artsy50 In reply to Zeimyth [2009-06-04 11:16:58 +0000 UTC]

Thanks.

First letter huh... How about S... She looks like her name should start with and S.

I'll check out your "cheat sheet", thanks.

Zeimyth In reply to Artsy50 [2009-06-04 14:01:31 +0000 UTC]

Ugh... You know, maybe if I gave you the right link, huh? >.<

Try this one . I'm not gonna go and copyright any of the names or anything like that. If you do end up using one though, or if they give you ideas, be sure to at least mention me somewhere. >_> If that doesn't work out, then sometime when we're both around I can see if I can come up with something.

Artsy50 In reply to Zeimyth [2009-06-04 18:43:24 +0000 UTC]

That's ok, haven't had the chance to check out the link yet anyhow... Been working on another dragon... I'm coloring in the momma dragon and baby just to give me ideas on how I'll eventually paint them... I'll be sure to give you credit if I do end up using any though.

Thanks!!

Good, should submit it later on tonight... I'm only coloring in the dragons, not the background so it shouldn't take too much longer...That is is my fingers hold up I press way too hard when I color and my carpal tunnel starts to act up!

Only problem is I've seen it so many times already I'm staring to get board with it!

I guess that means you'll just have to start something new to get me interested again!

Board? As in piece of wood? LOL I think you meant bored. Don't be bored, I've already come up with several ideas for new paintings, and I've submitted the sketches to my gallery. When are you coming up with something new?

Canada-Guy-Eh In reply to Artsy50 [2009-06-05 04:28:46 +0000 UTC]

Stupid words!
I've got a few ideas in the line up but right now I guess you could say I've got something a bit more pressing to take care of; a friend's having some personal trouble. I'll have to see how the next couple of days go before I can commit to a new project.

Canada-Guy-Eh In reply to Artsy50 [2009-06-05 22:11:42 +0000 UTC]

I heard it sounds pretty nasty, but I'm sure you'll take good care of her. With a bit of luck she'll be out of bed and back to sitting in front of the computer in no time!

Hope so, poor thing, she's a pretty whiney and whimpery when she's sick. I keep telling her to eat more fruits and veg. and exercise more so this won't happen so often but... sigh, as you know, she's a stubborn one... At least she got a little sleep last night I think. She's been sleeping with pillows propped up behind her.
