Realm: Role PlayCharacter: Nix
Date: May 22, 2008 / May 27, 2008 (second sketch)
Medium: Pencil in sketchbook
My boy Nix. He's pulling back his hair before he goes to spar for a bit. Drawing him in hakama makes me really want a pair of Nolwyn's hakama. They are damn comfortable... but I digress. This is the first decent sketch I've drawn of Nix in ages. He needs more love. Really.
And more Nix, looking a little... er... damaged? If I ever finish this (which I hope I do) it will be in ink, and hard black and white. This is a little different than my usual style, but I like how it's come out so far. I hope I can work out the rest...
Characters: Nix / NisaDate: May 30, 2008
Medium: pencil
Still in the RP realm. Just a small little sketch of Nix and Nisa being happy which is rare for two reasons: 1) I seem to have a problem writing happy things for my characters, and 2) Nix is usually paired with Katrina. But well, story changes toward the end. Nisa needed some happiness after it all. She got the short end of the stick far too often. Anyway, I was quite happy with the scribble, and it's cuteness.
Last doodle for the night:
I had a lot of free time on flight back from my trip, and I had my brush pens with me, so I decided to fool around with them a bit. I have an idea for a piece with Nisa which I wanted to do, but it required rocks. Lots of rocks. Rocks are something I've never really produced in color, let alone with brush pens. Actually, I've never done anything background related with my brush pens. Or anything, really. I'm happy with the result, for a first try. And suffering from Copic Marker Lust again. More colors would be wonderful...

Hmm... the shading on that rock is really quite good. The only thing I would change is that I would make it a bit less bulgy. Right now it looks a bit like a grey everlasting gobstopper from the Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory film. If you made it a smoother surface and did smaller shading gradients, even jumping to dark faster, perhaps?
mmmm gobstopper.... o_o
Yeah, I see what you mean. I'm always afraid for drastic shading, but I can see how that would help them look more like rocks.
They did look quite different when I looked at them in real lighting... Airplane lighting is horrible!
It really is, I bet! I can't remember it much, but I certainly do not expect it to be very good.
