Description My second character redesign, this time of my dolphin Eclipse. He's so much fun to color because of his smooth texture- lots of blending. As he got embellished, he kinda grew to resemble a shark, but he's still a dolphin. :3 And like the idiotic manatees, he's managed to get caught in a boat propeller (save the manatees! ) Which will eventually be integrated into his slowly-developing story.

Wow, that's a really neat design. Admitedly, I did think he was a shark before I read your comments. Still, very nice work there. The colors are well blended and the pose is natrual looking and well drawn. I'm tempted to fave this... and so I shall.

Oh noes! He got caught in the propellers! D: *pulls him into an underwater hug and immediately starts applying water-resistant antiseptic* If I was a dolphin, I would marry him. But alas, I am not. So therefore we will just have to elope. >>

He's purty.

You always make your characters look elegant and magical and so unique! D: And you like to give your characters wounds, don't you? Is it not enough for you that poor Constantine has a hole in his abdomen?! ... no probably not. Because everyone likes to tortue their characters.

Thanks! Heh, and yes I do. Eclipse, Constantine...and Liam, he's the worst, what with his lack-of-arm-and-leg. D:

blackeyedbirdy [2007-01-19 04:09:12 +0000 UTC]

Great colours and movement! Nice muscle definition, especially on his neck too.Ouch, those scars sure look painful! I can never draw wounds properly....I should be able to, many of my characters are all marked up
ANYWAY, great job!

Thank you! Heh, for some reason, I have this thing for characters with...chunks out of them, for lack of a better or more refined term. Between Constantine and the giant hole in his torso, Liam and his missing an arm, a leg, and some of a wing, and this guy...sometimes I wonder. (Then again, the other two are kinda zombies, so they have an excuse. XD)

XD Thanks!

I'm working on it- it's less complicated than my other original stories, so there's a chance it might actually get written sometime in the near future. You know the "human finds an injured supernatural-creature-of-some-kind and nurses it back to health" kind of stories? It's like a really unconventional version of that. XD (his fault for being retarded and running into the boat in the first place T.T)
