Description omaigawdthistook up a LOT of my time xD

I started the sketch and colors ages ago... and I finished up shading and all that stuff tonight. Total about 4 or more hours spent on it, I now have wasted most of my finals studying time lol

but to heck. This is Keyai's new layout. I'm gonna code it soon sometime during summer @_@;

Here's his very first pic compared to this one (2007)

and to those who think they can steal this: you can steal it all you want(I prefer you DONT), but remember this: you can't steal my pride!

wow, how could I miss that one? oO
the detail on the character is amazing, also how you madehim melt with the background is rather good
you can really see how you put so much effort in the detail of the background, especially with all the lighting effects and shades.
It provides a somewhat calm atmosphere though the broken tree make it seem like an illusion.
Just along with KeyaiΒ΄s pose, he looks calm yet still ready to go out for the hunt at any second
He gives me the impression of a lonesome but proud warrior, someone who walks his path, no matter what.
I lovehow you made the paws in here, they look so soft and their colour is just perfect for the invironment he is in.
and Last but not least, the face, I like his expression, his calm nature, especially the eye with that glare on it.
(wow ^^ a huge comment^^ this could even go as a critique^^ - hope I didnΒ΄t bother you)

ahh no problem this picture really stunned me when I saw it^^ idk why I didnt see it on the first time I saw your gallery^^"
but itΒ΄s been a while I was stunned like that
just one thing... was I right with my evaluation of his character? ^^

TeaDino In reply to 09Striker [2010-01-15 03:48:37 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, You're right about the lonesome part. 8) This was after he got his cursed cured of, so that's why he looks rather calm... I'm sure he's just going through memory lane at the moment, having nostalgia about his painful past. However, he's ready to leave it all behind.

He has a page about his past here if you're curious: [link]

:'D You're very good with evaluating though! Keyai was meant to be almost camouflaged in with the forest

well, thanks, but somehow it is easy to see that because that somehow felt like looking into the mirror^^ yet still thats just what the image gave me, so if anyway, itΒ΄s you who was able to put this all into it.
I gonna bookmark it and read it later XD heading to bed geeh 5am haha, but I am curious indeed need to know how much of my expression was correct^^ besides I always like to know how lively a character had been made

I adore all the detail in the trees of the background~ The scene feels so alive.

But yet, with the world just a land of muted, greyish hues, it is of sadness.
