Description
"I've gone terribad ToT"[TL;DR]
This one has been laying dormant and under the dust for a long time after I was finished with lineart. Several reasons for that but mainly because I didn't like the quality of my colour pencils (they left alot of white spaces between the pigments) and I refuse to continue letting those cheap woods ruin my drawings. And if you wonder why I left so many parts undrawn, that's just me being in ultra-lazy mode
----
Have to admit that it has been a while since I chara-dumped and I almost forgot how fun I had while doing so ^^
Anywho, here's some of my OC's doing what main character's do best. Being angry at the bad guys. Swinging your sword towards the monsters, casting a spell from a magic book. I honestly don't know what I was doing #w#
Hope you like this knowing I eff'd up with the coloring and my art skills have been gradually degrading. Any feedback is welcome, especially at how to use watersoluble pencils
Cheers (^ω^)ﾉ
PS:I still don't know what to call the elf -______________-

Oooo,OOOOOHH I LIKE THIS
But seriously, you've improved quite a bit! I'm really like the expressions on the characters, you're really improving with faces 
My favourite has to be the blue haired girl. She looks very cute
Also, I'm always impressed when I see artwork that involves a lot of characters, something that I'd like to do more often myself. So kudos to you for drawing this!

THANK YOU SOO MUCH
I'm happy to hear I got the foreshortening right this time xDD
Ooh I see andthatistotallynotbecauseofthebluehairxDD, I like her here too even though I don't draw the character often.
Her initial name was Chelsea Ikarus but I didn't really liked it so I want to change her first name. I'm pretty clueless what to name her atm.
Same goes for the elf.
But ya I would be very excited to see you chara-dump too.
[that plz though, I never really understood whether the man is genuinely clapping or is being sarcastic and condescending. Misteries of the internetXDDD]

Well you should know that I am currently facing the same issues with coloring. It's a terrible life to be living v_v
And personally for water-color pencils I use them like a normal pencil then take a water-color paint brush, dampen it, and then 'paint' where I colored. I do that or dip the tips in water, kinda color with them and use the same painting-brush idea. But that' just me and how I've experimented/ concluded to doing.
And don't worry too much about your art! Of course you are going to think it stinks buns but it doesn't! (wow so encouraging <_<)

Yea ikr. That is what urges me to go digital even though I can never get used to either the tablet or SAI
What a coincidence. I used them just like that too xD
Ahaha I guess It's kind of a mentality I have over my art. Probably will be stuck to it for a while lol

Digital I am actually having the most trouble with coloring o_O. But that's only because I don't understand computer programming and such <_<
Well it seems like it works then XD. Honestly when it comes to art supplies sometimes there is no 'proper' way to use them. except for oil-paints. I hear they are a pain.
And my friend has the same kind of mentality v_v. Just try to remember that you don't suck and I think you'll be fine XD.

Ah I see what you mean. Although I bet alot of the "pros" will disagree with that statement xD

Which one? Coloring or oil painting or supplies? XD I need to begin making shorter comments or work on summarizing my thoughts <_<

That there's no proper ways to use art supplies. I'm not sure myself honestly.
And I don't mind long comments. It's nice to read and to receive xD

Oh. Well there TECHNICALLY is but I don't believe to abide by them. Honestly as long as it gets good results to where the user is happy by it, then what's the problem?
And thank you v_v. Quite reassuring to hear XD

these are great drawings! the line work is fantastic. Do you only use water soluble pencils and if not what brand do you usually use?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks alot for the comment. Yes, I used watersoluble pencils of the brand Caran d'ache. Before this, I used (once) the brand Bruynzeel but it felt inferior to me.
