Description For 's contest.

Sorry for late entry.>_<;
But I hope she still accept this.

I designed this maren in clothes like the Japanese and/or Chinese one.
Because when I have heard she likes Vermillion, I imagined the traditional clothes and buildings of Japan and China.
I like Vermillion too.^^

Anyway, I hope she likes this.

Sorry. I didn't look at your other pictures. Seiya is an elegant 'Maren as well.

I have an unusual idea, if you would permit me to bring it up. Nightmaren are the guardians of fear and nightmare, teaching us valuable lessons about ourselves. But what about the good dreams?

To counterbalance the Nightmarens, I have created a for of being called a Somnian, from the Latin word Somnus, which means "dream". The Somnians are the guardians of adventure and fantasy, letting us experience things we cannot in the waking world. Here are a few traits of Somnians:

Each looks similar to a Nightmaren, and like 'Maren, they come in Rank 3, 2 and 1.

A Rank 1 Somnian wears pajamas with a robe overtop. They have the same kind of large eyes as a 'Maren, but they also have short, pointed ears. They often have hair, and wear a nightcap on their head. This nightcap is tipped by either a dangling symbol or tassel. They wear slippers on their feet, sometimes with curled toes. In addition, each bears a crystal ball. Sometimes they have a design over one or both eyes.

Unlike 'Maren, who can fly, Somnians drift or glide close to the ground. They have Stardust instead of Twinkledust, and they can use it as a projectile or to draw a shape in the air. The crystal ball can be used to emit a large pulse to defeat Wiseman's minions, or to view a Nightopia via scrying. In addition, each one has a unique power.

Rank 2 Somnians are similar to Rank 2 Nightmarens, but are more elegant. They often assist Rank 1 Somnians in providing an enjoyable fantasy.

Rank 3 Somnians are small and cute. They are often found in the company of Nightopians. They spread an aura of peace and contentment.

I'm sorry that was so long, but I had to get it out of my system and into the wide world. I would like to see your version of a Somnian, and hear your opinions.

Personally, I think that everyone has a 'Maren assigned to watch over them. Your 'Maren is very elegant.

Sorry for double-commenting, but I have to ask: how do you make all of your pictures seem so flawless?? Do you sketch first, scan it in, and color it, or what...??? It's so mystifying... O3O

seiya712 In reply to Serenityofsand [2008-08-19 03:56:02 +0000 UTC]

Mainly, first I draw rough sketch with pencil and lineart with pen.
Then I scan it and modify the lines.
Then I color it with Photoshop or SAI or Illustrator.
(But most of my artwork are by Photoshop)

Oh well, I'll figure it out somehow... ^^
