Description ... turns to winter
before the dreams will turn to snow
I see the yellow leaves are falling
and soon I know I have to go
I'll show that all the dreams are true
if you only let them be before the winter


Before the winter - Stratovarius

Long overdue commission for the sweet and patient *F-0-X-Y She requested her OC Kato with Ichigo .

I'm somehow recovering from my artblock but it's very unstable, one day I'm fine and then I spend a week without being able to do anything. I don't know what's going on... I desperately want to recover from this hell of an art block and draw like I used to... Thanks for your support and patience while I go through this .

Hope you like it <3

Overall

Impact


Rydi1689, there are in this community, a lot of OCs paired with main characters of animes that allow the boundaries of creativity to soar allowing romantic and fantasy moments (wink, wink). Normally when I look at a piece of art, I ask "How does this art relate to me? Does it mean anything?", and fortunately I have a good one: What I see here represents a treasured and captured moment in time of love on a first date, a memory forever etched in the hearts of these young ones.
My, I even wish I had these moments with my girlfriend! Sadly alas not, however, there is still time for those moments in life.

Moving on to more serious matters: the score. I have given a very high and generous score for several reasons beginning with the vision! A vision is a central theme, an idea, or the very soul of a piece of art. Here, the soul of this piece is well communicated and reaches me of young love. This alone desires a high score. Next is the originality know this: I was very hesitant about deciding whether or not to give a 3.5 or 4
stars because to me OCs mixed in with main characters of another series is a bit unoriginal. That is my opinion, however, I have changed my mind deciding I am too harsh in my stubborn reviewing and gave it a high score.

The technique of this artwork is automatically the highest score: Rydi, you have managed to draw with extreme elegance the upper torso, head, and limbs of a man and female with precision. There are no flaws in proportions and you have given various poses as well. The background is also pretty well done. For the second step, the coloring, I love it completely: every color fits perfectly together and blends to create the perfect environment, setting, moment etc for the artwork. I love also the facial expressions of the two discharging vast amounts of concealed love, you have even made them blush! I commend you as well on the hands, a difficult thing to draw, but you have done it perfectly.

The impact of this artwork on me, well I am guessing you already know right? I am in love with this commission and this earns a high score. So, rydi1689, you have earned a high score for this artwork, an amazing critique, the admiration and praise of many, and a Favorited place in my gallery. Congrats and I look forward to seeing what you produce next! Well done.

Muy lindo! Me gustan sus sonrisas.

Te recomiendo que hagas algo diferente a lo que usualmente dibujas! Te darΓ‘ una nueva perspectiva y probablemente inspiraciΓ³n. En mi caso hacer speedpaints de paisajes me ha ayudado bastante.

rydi1689 In reply to alexandrasalas [2012-07-24 21:53:41 +0000 UTC]

muchas gracias, Kassie!! No es el estilo lo que me desinspira, es el mero hecho de intentar dibujar, aunque sea un garabato, un paisaje, no hay manera con nada... Salvo a veces que me vuelven las ganas de forma repentina y consigo hacer algo pero esa chispa se va al poco tiempo. Es una faena... A ver si me recupero pronto!
