AMG's Art Every Day He's Not Lazy Thread

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Ugh. Its going to take a while longer to get a more accurate version of that Aasimar. The one I was working on got so marked up with erases and such that its too much of a mess and I'm not even happy with how things have turned out anyway.

So, its been scrapped. I'm going to plot a little while and figure out how to pull this one off...but I'm GOING to. I just like the idea way too much to quit.

Happens sometimes. I make beaded jewelry, so I can relate. I can't even begin to think of how many times I've started a necklace, bracelet, pair of earrings only to tear them apart when the design doesn't work.

When I get to that point I tend to burn things...course I am a bit of a pyromaniac so no surprise there. Then it takes me awhile to cool myself down and relax, but as soon as I do that I pick the pencil back up and normally am thoroughly happy with the result because I have rethought out any problems and calmed my emotions, both by the burning and the rest time after. Emotions have a great deal to do with what I am drawing often so I have to watch what mine are though when I start something because the wrong attitude will totally mess up a piece for me.

Hey AMG! Those are some nice hands, seriously. That's the kind of thing that'll really help anyone. Life drawing, life drawing, life drawing.

And I also dig the Aasimar, looking better all the time.

Back from my nice vacation and hopefully back into sketching/working on something every day or close to it.

I DID work on something while lounging at the beach, however. Dug out a nearly year old sketch of my ex's d20 Modern character. Her name is Dairin Sarkova, and she's a Russian Martial Artist that doesn't yet know that's she's actually the Werewolf she and her partner have been tracking from one half of the USA to the other.

Was a fun game...sad that it had to stop due to a rough break up. Rough being a very light term, of course. May finally sketch her partner now, though, as I'd been meaning to do that and never got around to it.

And kirinke, I've not forgotten about you.

The need to actually sketch just hit and so I've got two extra things to post.

First off, kirinke, what do you think of this 'human' woman? I didn't sketch his originally for your Aasimar character, but something about it begged me a least asking wha you thought. Its getting fleshed out, touched up, and finished either way. Just might change direction depending on you.

Second is something I've been wanting to do for a while. You've all seen the sketches of the Alraxians that appear in my story hour as a major species. Essentially, they're cat people, but in my sketches they've always just been humans with ears and a tail. I may have finally figured out a method and face structure to make them more...unique, while still retaining hints of human ancestors. What do any of you who happen to be reading this think?

I like the Alraxian especially. Cool stuff. I think they're not too catlike, but distinct nonetheless.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

The Alraxian pic came out nice. I like the contour of the lines in its face and the wide bridge of the nose.

 

[Angcuru]

The alraxian came out nice. I prefer this version to the previous ones, since Human + Ears + Tail + Size Increase = New Species doesn't really work for me. But then again, I'm a detail whore.
