Description This was supposed to be the other part of the 'warrior of harmonie' pic, one of the sketches for the big painting I'm working upon. I realized with all the Lularum and Luc pics I've made, I've never really shown him actually summoning her sooooo..... this kind of popped out.

Lularum is actually Luc's weapon, his guardian.

Medium: pencil on parchment

(Me thinks I write small comments when I'm not at my own computer!
And finally! A non-liney scanner!)

I don't know what to say. This just looks amazing! I especially like how Lul is all transparent like that.

Waa! I'm glad you think she looks transparent! She looked like a mess of lines to me when I started off!

Welp... since this is just one of the sketches... yip it is going to be colored in the final painting. This piece though, remains in pencil. ^.^

this is really, really amazing! i love the way Lularum overlaps his hand, and the way she's not quite fully formed...
the water effects...and really just all the magic effects in general look great - i love the way they sweep around the characters and really give the picture a lively feel...
and the shading, as always, is very well done.

definately the coolest-looking summon I've ever seen. ~_^

W-wow amazing ^___^ those shades are perfect~!It gives the feeling it is some action scene!And the runic circles around Luc look really neat ^_^
hee I`m soo gonna fave this ^^

Yakra In reply to Exarrdian [2005-09-07 12:39:02 +0000 UTC]

It's actually a part of the pic in which Izul is fighting away! Luc stands at the water edge, summoning Lul, while Izul had been floundering around in water.

My runic circle is no where near as amazing as all yours. You are the runic circle master!

Exarrdian In reply to Yakra [2005-09-07 15:26:34 +0000 UTC]

No no no my runic circles are mare digital effects put together while yours are drawn by hand and that is a real talent! ^_~
Who is Izul?I don`t think I`ve seen that person before..*scratches head* ..now I feel curious >_< why are they fighting for?o.o

Yakra In reply to Exarrdian [2005-09-08 11:27:47 +0000 UTC]

Izul is the guy who was fighting away in the 'Warrior of Harmonie' pic. Remember... the DD? This pic, that one, and this third rough sketch (which I'm too ashamed to put up!) make up the entire scene. I can't think on one paper!

The fact that you make your runic circle so, so magical is what makes them so amazing! Hand drawn circles can't come anywhere close to those!

ScatterbrainFox [2005-09-05 17:04:13 +0000 UTC]

ah, finally something new
and wow, this is amazing again x_X you keep amazing me with every single pic you upload xD
and I gotta admit, some kind of pic where lul is summoned by look was just what I was waiting for!
and again, I love the details! <3 Like the pattern on Lul's dress. And the folds and as usual, the swirley stuff everywhere around them.
where did the puppets go? o_O I mean I see the strings but not the puppets.
This would make one hell of a colored picture, but I also adore it in grey shades. You are so awesome @_@

Yakra In reply to ScatterbrainFox [2005-09-07 12:20:24 +0000 UTC]

All I seem to be making are rough sketches. But thanks for the fav!

Lularum's puppets are usually her foes. She usually latches onto the nearest enemy and them controls them, causing him to kill his other allies. After all of them are dead, she then kills off the person she uses too. *Lularum ish an evil meanie *

There is going to be a colored version of this! It's one of the scenes in the big miniature painting!

ScatterbrainFox In reply to Yakra [2005-09-07 14:46:34 +0000 UTC]

ah, I thought the puppets were her little mooglish dolls. Using the enemies to kill the other enemies.... cool o.O
looking forward to the miniature painting! <3

dominique871 [2005-09-05 11:05:47 +0000 UTC]

Did the pink parts get added by your artsy scanner?

It's very pretty!!!! The lineart is so detailed and graceful, I love how you drew his cloak and the way her face is lowered!!
It's excellent, me loves it very very much!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Yakra In reply to dominique871 [2005-09-07 12:29:25 +0000 UTC]

Nope! Pink parts are the parchment texture which was always eaten up by my overly adventurous scanner!

But thanks. I was kind of afraid it all looked like a mess with all the overlapping and me having no idea what I was doing!

Do you prefer the actual texture of the page or the liney texture my home scanner added?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

dominique871 In reply to Yakra [2005-09-07 13:13:55 +0000 UTC]

Ehhh....I like em both! Your scanner always chooses the right piece of work to add lines too. ^^
It really depends on whether it suits the piece, but your work always has that sort of rusty, ancient, magical feel to it - and the scanner lines help bring that out most of the time!

That's absolutely amazing. You are very talented at this. I really like the border and the atmosphere created, the summoned actually looks sumoned! Yay!

The detail is beautiful and the shading is very impressive.

It reminds me of final fantasy

Yakra In reply to Toji89 [2005-09-07 12:36:07 +0000 UTC]

I'm always afraid my pics will end up very final fantasy-ish. (I play too many games!) But yip, summoned spirits always remind me of FF.

*ish not a cheater though!!!*

Aaaand.... whenever one wants to be lazy... stick a huge border in!
