Ahah ^^ thank you so much
Yes actually I don't know why I've started with a drawing of Ophelia, maybe I found the right inspirating reference image eheh ^^' and now I hope the CG version, that you could see on my last screenshot, could came out pretty nice and in a real/human/photograph style rather than an anime/manga/drawing style :3 at least, this is what I'm pointing to eheh ^^
Anyway ^^ Galatea is so lovely eheh <3
Thanks again, see you

You´re welcome Xd... And galatea surely is lovely *DROOLS* ...I wonder, If there was some girl like her I would start flirting and shit XD...But I guess Galatea go for "Calmer and intelectual boys and dudes", not for "more energetic and who likes to make fun and apply pranks to others XD" ones, like me XD

One of them i think it is cool but the other one, becauyse of certain things I don´t like on it make me sad ;__; xD... Dude, you seem a nice person XD. Do you have MSN? "Me feels like "chit-chating" XD

Yes ^^ I saw them days ago eheh, they're cute ^^ just try to improve yourself drawing and drawing again : ) practice is a very nice thing
Thanks for thinking that ^^
Well, yes I have msn, you can find it on the home page : ) Anyway you have to know I'm studying so much at the moment and I'm usually at university ^^' so it could be difficult to have quite long live discussions eheh : )
Add me if you want ^^

Eheh thank you so much ^^' but I think your shading is really better than mine
Moreover, I think this is the first shaded drawing I ever made so I have to improve myself, and... a digital painted version of this drawing is coming soon (I hope)

Thanks again
Yes, I think that's my real first one, I did some other sketches but they aren't a really shaded drawings, I just make shadows with some lines or something like that, just because I usually draw my drawings with the first pencil I find on the table eheh so it's often not good for shading ^^ if you take a look at the gallery you could understand what I mean
Well, thank you so much again for what you say you're a nice artist too!

Eheh ^^' well, I tried to use a mechanical pencil too, but I don't know, I felt better with the traditional one, or maybe I didn't practice so much with the mechanical one as well
It's a pleasure

Hi ^^ thanks for the comment, yes, I like them as well
About the fullsize image, I thought to upload the bigger initial scan I did, as well as for other images in the gallery, so who wants to save it, will have the better resolution version and of course he/she could resize it as he/she want ^^ Sorry for making you sad

Ah, this is very good . One can't find much Ophelia fanart, so this is refreshing to see ^^. The lineart and shading is pretty accurate. The expression is awesome too. The expression gives you chills xD.

Very nice job =^__^=. and a for you.

Lordfolken [2007-08-05 05:00:10 +0000 UTC]

Oh wow! Hey!

Nice, nice! Ophelia! Heheh. This is great. I really like her expression here - contemplative yet deadly. She was such a mixture of ambiguous emotions and you've certainly shown that here. The eyes are superbly done! I like! Those lowered lashes are to DIE for!

The original seemed a lil' bit more musing, while your Ophelia has a bit more of an dangerous edge to her. I like that. Something about the way her eyes are angled makes me shiver. And when that happens, that means an instant favourite. This is really great. Would i sound greedy and spoiled if i clamored and whined for more claymore goodies from you? ^.^

SLB81 In reply to Lordfolken [2007-08-05 11:04:44 +0000 UTC]

Hei, thanks for the critique! ^^ I appreciate it so much
Yes, you have to know I was afraid to draw her eyes, thinking they will lose their awesome expression, but luckily I think they resulted good ^^
Moreover, you're right about the comparison with the original, actually I draw her mouth in a little different way from the original. Initially I wanted to draw her in a smile-like expression, but I finally decided to make her not so happy at all eheh ^^'
Oh thanks ^^ Well, actually I'm quite busy with the university, but I like Claymore so much, and I think I'll draw something new in the near future. Moreover I'm waiting for my pen tablet *__* so maybe I'll put coloured versions of my drawings too
Hope you'll like them ^^ Keep watching if you want

Thanks a lot again! You're welcome

Lordfolken In reply to SLB81 [2007-08-10 05:27:06 +0000 UTC]

No problem at all!

Oh i agree that she does have an intense expression, and you managed to draw it out greatly. A definite plus was more dangerous look. I really liked that!

Ooooh! Yeah, i read about your pen-tablet! Welll! I will definitely be in-tune for more stuff from you! Great stuff!

And I hope to get soon my tablet (and have spare time with the university as well ç_ç ) to put here something new ^^ hoping quite good works
Thanks again, you're welcome

Thank you so much ^^
A shame I haven't a better pencil to use to draw shadows, but I love the result at all.
Yes, she is, even if in the last episode where she appears, she makes me feel quite sad ^^' So I decided to make a little tribute to her
Thanks again for the comment ^^

Yes, in this episode she's thinking about her past and she's pervaded by so many thoughts ^^
And, I think Claymore is a nice animation project
