Phew! It's finally done! Gosh... It ended up becoming a lot more colorful than I thought it would. I didn't mean for him to become the rainbow incarnate. It just sorta evolved that way...
I'd aldo like to apologize for taking this long to come up with the final reference sheet. A lot of things went, uhm... pretty wrong while I was drawing this. But here it finally is! Jamin's ref sheet! Everything you need to know is written on it, so for the first time I find myself in the position of not having to write a wall of text down here.

For those of you who want to draw him, keep in mind that I didn't really determine how the scales are supposed to be distributed, not exactly anyway. So if you think you can draw them in a better configuration, then by all means, feel free to change that aspect of his design. As for Jamin's job, I haven't quite decided yet what it should be. It's going to be something combat-related, and eventually he ends up getting killed by a human. That's about as far as I got right now. XD

Jamin has a mate, Amiera and a son, Esall .

You can also check out the first and the second concept sketches I made earlier.

Like it? I love it! ^^

Don't worry about how long it took. I've had far worse, trust me.

I wish it didn't take like a year for me to get to it, but I do guess if I took less time than it might not have turned out so well XD
I am glad you like it!

Hey there, remember me, I'm Amiera's owner. :3
I got a new name here.
I'm glad you got the ref, I've been wanting to draw Amiera again, with her family, now I can!
He is still so pretty!

I am so sleepy I will spare you the horror of trying to read my butchered English but omg I missed this guy! I will so come back to him tomorrow, he's beautiful :0 He needs a stamp, I must have him in my Avian love collection!

Oh, and sorry I haven't responded to your note yet. Personal RL issues has kind of been kicking my ass lately and I haven't had time for internet stuff.

No problem hun! A canny girl on here made the Avian stamps I think, I wonder if she'll think I'm rude if I ask her <: D

Oh its alright! I know how that feels!
I actually end to PC World to see if I could have the data extracted but apparently because it doesnt turn on they'd charge £100 pounds instead of £30 o.o I felt like vomiting on them! Talk about day light robbery! D:

I think it was [link] I don't know what she'd think, but I figure it would be even odder if I asked her. Lol.

Actually, I could probably make a stamp myself, but that would really make me feel awkward. XD Don't really want to blow my own horn.


Hmmm? Sounds pretty expensive. Did they explain why the rates were so high? Did it have anything to do with how many hours it would take them to get it done?

Rasa88 In reply to Blue-Uncia [2010-03-07 22:32:05 +0000 UTC]

I might send her a note and ask <: D Plus she'll have the correct font and she's a sweety anyways :3

Oh I know xD I would love a Rasa stamp but I cannot bring myself to make one! I'm glad theres someone else who thinks making their own stamps is a bit weird xD


I think its purely because of it not being able to actually turn on. Looking at it when I took it up I realised the power board was missing (also realised that the laptop had melted itself while ON my lap, I could see the imprint of material in the damaged area D: ) xD I have no idea why my Dad felt it was logical to take the power board out and THEN put the buggar back together!

Prachtig!!

Alles is waw!: zijn kleuren! mensen die zien er schitterend uit, de pluimen (die 2 manen/kam-ding zijn mooi en dat van de vleugels dat het geeft de effect van een hanen staart, heel mooi bedacht ) en de achtergrond info is super (Whale Watcher die verhaal wil ik echt is horen lol)

Je hebt er een prachtig art van gemaakt (lol en hij is gebaseerd op een haan, das nu pas echt iets , well hanen zijn nu eenmaal mooie kippen )

Mooi werk!!

Bedankt! Z'n ontwerp is misschien een beetje te ingewikkeld, maar ach.

Hanen zijn leuke beesten. Als ze tenminste niet getraind zijn om tegen elkaar te knokken in hanengevechten.

xSheepi [2009-08-11 06:26:10 +0000 UTC]

ohhh he's hereeee; and Ohgod yes, those colours are love.
Totally kickass looking, I really just love how much contrast there is in that red, orange and green and purple, and how they're all jammed together, but yet they all play off of one another so well and it all looks great~
The massive feathery mane and the green parts breaking off the wings just add some real majesty to this guy when he's playing as his Avian self, that's especially cool in that front-on view of the face, where the feathers splash out and go everywhere; and that side shot, the one where he's got his glowing yellow eyes, he just looks amazing there.

YA'KNOW WHAT? YOU'RE PRETTY GOOD AT THIS CHARACTER DESIGN THING c:

Blue-Uncia In reply to xSheepi [2009-08-11 20:55:21 +0000 UTC]

Yeesssss, he's here!

Lol. I didn't mean to mash so many different colors together. It just sort of happened. I'm glad I managed to keep things more or less coherent looking despite that.

The species are known for looking majestic, so I felt I couldn't stay behind. Hence the double crests, and the fancy green bits on the wings. I don't normally make characters this complicated-looking, because that would make it more cumbersome for me to draw my own OCs often. But here we are... XD

I'm glad you like the head shots. They were fun to do. ^^

Aww, you think so? Thanks Sheeps! I try. I do like designing characters.

In fact, I still have a few nice Ethara characters left to draw.

Blue-Uncia In reply to meroe1313 [2009-08-11 07:23:52 +0000 UTC]

Lol. Yeah, 'complicated' seems to be the standard with these Avians. Some of them look even more complicated than this. ^^

Thanks!

Blue-Uncia In reply to Firespettan [2009-08-09 21:17:37 +0000 UTC]

Lol. That actually happens a lot with me too, especially with the more popular people, like Shinerai. I think it's because they have a lot of watchers or something, although I don't think of myself as particularly popular. XD

But thanks for dropping by. ^^

You mean his human form, right? Yeah, he's got a tiny beard going on. I'm not sure, but doesn't Pango have one too in his human form?

Pango is a great Avian too. He's one of my favourites. Can't help but love his down-to-earthy-ness.

Eehee! Isn't he a handsome brute? I love how you executed his personality. I bet he's simultaneously a ton of fun and a pain in the neck XD. And his colors are so gorgeous! He DEFINITELY reminds me of a rooster! Awesome job!

Blue-Uncia In reply to Enaxn [2009-08-09 15:30:20 +0000 UTC]

Lol. Yes, he is! ^^ I haven't seen too many brutish Avians around, barring perhaps Exiel, so I figured I'd throw one in there and see what happens next. Nailmus is a big guy too, but he seems way more sophisticated.

I bet he's simultaneously a ton of fun and a pain in the neck XD.

Oh, you have not idea how right you are. Ever seen a grown-up try to be funny in a juvenile way? It's painful to watch. Heh.

Thanks! ^^

He turned out so handsome! I totally love his design!!! I can't wait to draw our family photo! I just love that color scheme and the way his pinions just pop up like a rooster tail when his wings are folded is shear genious! Oh yes, definitely expect some fan art. I just love this guy! Very unique!

Blue-Uncia In reply to BladeEdgeRave [2009-08-08 08:55:56 +0000 UTC]

Lol. Our family photo, huh? Yeah, that would be cute. But I do think Nayelis is planning to redesign Esall. Maybe you should wait for that first, unless you like his current design anyway, of course. ^^

I'm glad you like his pinions. I spent such a long time wondering how I would incorporate the rooster tail design, and then I suddenly thought: 'why does it need to be on the tail anyway?' XD

Thanks! Glad you like it. ^^
