this is going to be tilted to it doesnt look so... lopsided.

anyway, this is going to be the logo for my new online shop ^^
[link]

after a transparency, hehe. it would be nice if oekaki had a transparency option.


lazulidragon [Profile] 2012/8/16 - 18:48:46
It does though. If you do the advanced drawing board and then the layer option, you can make that particulare layer more transparent or less transparent.

Hello! I'm new here, haha. I'm here to loosen up my drawing and learn to sketch with a tablet, as I haven't learned how yet. You'll be seeing lots of fanart from me, mostly Pandora Hearts. :3

Alice B-Rabbit from . . . Pandora Hearts, huuurr. Warm-up doodle before I start drawing more conceptual pieces--I plan to hole myself up in my room today and draw oekaki all day long. XD

Concrit very much appreciated~!

Welcome to the club, sis~ Make yourself at home; make sure to clean your messes, kitchen's on the right... ah, I digress.

The way you pull off pixellated lines with soft gradients is new to me, but eye-pleasing' Nice work :D

Lizziecat said that I don't draw enough pictures with multiple characters. SO HERE. Just a small assortment of my many, many characters. I feel like nobody believes me when I say that. Probably because you guys have never seen most of my characters. I think you might recognize some of these guys...Kmish and Aurel maybe. Kudos to anyone who knows any of the others. Heck kudos to anyone who even knows what the others are. (Especially that green and pink guy).


candy [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 21:38:16
That green and pink guy looks like an ichthyosaur P:
I do not know any of the rest but I remember you drawing that pink horse back around Valentine's Day.
I really like the blue spotted cat thing, but they are all very adorable <3
dreyacira [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 21:47:11
That green and pink guy IS an ichthyosaur! You win 10 internets. Yeah I did draw that horse around Valentine's. Thanks!
candy [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 22:4:28
Hot dang I am good 8D
Yay for free internets. And you're welcome.
tayuyaxn [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 22:12:43
I'm so proud of you. *wipes parental tears of joy*
[anon]lizziecatnotloggedin 2012/8/8 - 22:19:52
YAY YOU DID IT :D I am loving the cat and the squirrel I think most. And that wind dragon. And the winged person in the left corner. THESE ARE ALL SO PRETTY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAh
docile_dragon [Profile] 2012/8/9 - 5:1:0
I spy a Aurel, Kmish, Barol, and Nix. Didn't you do a silhouette of Nix a few months back.
I have a lot of characters that no one here would recognize too, but most of them I don't use or think of anymore. I started writing before I started drawing, so pretty much any of my OCs from before I started drawing. Though I do have a few that I created after I started drawing that no one would recognize.
dreyacira [Profile] 2012/8/9 - 5:51:17
Thanks Tayu. XD

Lizzie: I feel like I want to do a huge one now. Like HUGE. Everyone seems to like Barol...and I have to admit, he is fluffy...Kmish is a fan favorite too it seems.
Docile: Wow I'm impressed you knew Barol! You must have looked at my really old pictures on deviantart at some point. The weird thing is that I have drawn all these guys at some point, I just don't have the drawings anymore (the oekaki where I'd kept them got deleted...which is when I got a deviantart account). But when you have so many characters, it's hard to keep up with drawing each of them as often as you should, right?!
docile_dragon [Profile] 2012/8/9 - 8:14:20
Right, I mean we only have so much time. That's why I like to keep my drawing OCs to a minimum which is really hard. Some of my OCs I drew once then decided not to draw them anymore (like Lyam) so that I could consecrate on my other OCs and Kit my first drawing OC who was a humanoid got left behind when I started getting serious about drawing. My writing on the other hand is focused on ideas not characters, so I use my characters for one or two stories then drop them which leads to me having massive numbers of them gathering dust.

Portgas D. Ace ... For some reason, I tend to like side characters who don't get much ''screen-time'' the most ...


pumadragon [Profile] 2012/8/9 - 18:28:12
me too. I never see enough of my favorite characters for anything. :/

This is awesome.
dreyacira [Profile] 2012/8/10 - 15:28:48
Tayu! Great job on drawing something that doesn't look like you! XD I'm just joking, this looks great. Instantly recognizable. Good job!

Pokesona, even though I think they are rather dumb to make.
But if I was a Pokemon I'd be a Murkrow (:

Gosh them eyes and that beak, so hard to draw I swear and they eyes are off i know lol.
Anyway, I'd be bit more blue than the average one I guess.. Sort of an excuse since I couldn't get the right color green that they appear in the show, but also since I got confused about what their actual color is, since the concept drawings of a Murkrow shows the feathers being more blue, like this and not green.
I go by the drawings though lol. Oh and, instead of red eyes and a red tail clip thing, mine would be purple.

Lol I bet about everyone would think I'd be a SHINY ENTEI, cause I fucking love SHINY ENTEI they are so sexy and best pokemon ever I swear to god but even thought hey are the greatest thing ever made I don't think I'd be a beautiful SHINY ENTEI D;
I really, really love Murkrow too, it is one of my upmost favorite Pokemon. I've always loved it, not because it is based on a crow/raven, but I've just always liked it in general. And dark types are <3
Plus I wanted to be able to fly as a Pokemon and I hate bug types and dragon types are so over used and charizard.

SO YES, THIS IS ME, not my character Xylom BUT ME, YAY 8D


candy [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 15:3:59
Or my character/fursona Candy because I forgot I'm using my new account lol.
skullzhead [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 15:27:16
OHmyGOSH! I didn't recognize you under the different name, but I suspected it was you because of the cool coloring style you have. XD
This is awesome, so... psssgfhfhf!!
The wings, feet, and beak are really awesome! Have you ever drawn birds before? I've never really seen you draw birds a lot, but this one looks like you've been doing it for a while!! I for one would like to see more of this one as well as Xylom!
(Maybe... a picture of the two together? :L I dunno!)
lady_miragon [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 16:25:27
This is super cool Candy (aka Xylom), hehe. :3
You got the color down! Murkrows are that bluish, black. I believe the green is the shiny, not a 100% sure though. You should do a Honchkrow, which is it's evolved form. I bet it would look really cool.
I agree with skullzhead! You should do Candy and this Murkrow together! It would be uber fantabulous!
Always love your work!
candy [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 16:54:58
Skullz - Yes the new name is for my new fursona, Candy (:
Haa thank you. I like how her feet and beak came out too, used purple to shade with as well as orange, thought it would make a nice contrast, and it did!
Uhm, no I don't believe I ever have. I rarely draw birds and avian creatures, besides this and the gryphon bust I drew about a month ago I haven't really practiced with birds, even if this is only a pokemon.
I might draw them together sometime, never know! :)

Lady Miragon - Why thank you!
Nah, the shiny version is pink, not green. Like a lot of the pokemon their colors sometimes vary from the drawings to the anime. I usually just go by what is on Bulbapedia and actual pokemon concept art and refs, the colors seem better. The show gets them all jacked up.
I might draw a Honchkrow, dunno' yet.
Thank you again :)

ok i cant look at this anymore


skullzhead [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 13:11:22
Omg, thank you for saving the animation~! It was so cool to watch~! This picture is cute and pretty at the same time. X3 The red highlights on the guy's shirt are pretty neat, as well as the spot highlights on both of the characters. Your style is killing me, I just love the way you draw and color your pictures! Also... how many layers, if any, did you use for this? Just curious!
kitn [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 18:26:44
hey hey! thanks a bunch! your comments really brighten my day!
as for layers, i usually use just the three:
layer 2 is for the line art
layer 1 is the coloring
layer 0 is the sketching

but in this case i used three, so 2 for coloring because there are 2 different people! yeaaaaah!!! 0:-)
1world1name [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 19:4:52
Do you remember that you were going to teach me something about coloring? This is cute by the way.
kitn [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 19:14:59
yep yep yep! i sure do remember! i just had to finish these last two requests (which required me drawing 500 pictures of random dudes but..)!
i will get to that right now!!

Well, been working on this for a while now, in short sessions. This is a (very) late birthday present, for Myria. Well, I don't know if she's very active around here lately, but her DeviantArt account is here: [link] under the name of Star-drake.

Anyway, this is a picture of her OC, Jayadrin. I drew the same OC for her last year for her birthday, here: [link] MUCH imporved, if you ask me! :)

Anyway, comments or critiques would be much appreciated, and greatly welcomed! :)


dreyacira [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 4:48:48
I like the shading. You sure have improved a lot! One thing I would suggest is fleshing out the wing arm a little. If you give it muscles like you would a front leg, it will look more capable of lifting the dragon. Especially since this dragon doesn't have any front legs. I really like the stylized look of this.
crazy4dragons [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 8:14:1
@ DreyaCira: Thanks for your kind comments! <3
And, I do agree with you about fleshing out the wing more... I'll have to practice that! :P
lady_miragon [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 13:12:39
I love the coloration and shading you did for Jayadrin! It's quite lovely. You really have improved, too! Isn't nice to see improvement in your drawings? I love when you can tell the difference and improvement from one year to the next. :c)

Some helpful advice for your drawing: it looks like your dragon has only one forearm and one back leg. I would add the other two appendages to make the dragon look more complete, unless you intended it that way. Also, the lighter purple on the throat needs to flow to the front of the body. Does that make sense? It should go from where his chest is, facing forward, and turn with the neck to his face. One last thing, on the forearm, I would make it connect to the dragon higher up on his body. The shoulder and the wing, anatomically, should be pretty close to each other because of the muscles and ligaments attaching the two body parts together. Other than that, fantastic!
crazy4dragons [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 15:53:57
@ Lady_Miragon: Thanks for the kind comments! Yes, it is nice to know one has improved! XD

As far as the legs go, this dragon character only has 2 legs, like a wyvern per say. Maybe the one leg is to far forward? IDK, I just thought, since I made her leaning a bit, I would spread the legs out more to give her more... balance? :P And I totally get what you're sayingwith the lighter purple! Thanks for the advice! :D
lady_miragon [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 16:14:51
OOOHHH!!! That makes WAY more sense that your dragon has no front legs. Dur! *face palm* The placement of the feet is perfectly fine. XcP

Now that I know that, some actually related advice on the anatomy. :cP I would draw her more upright. That's why I thought she had a front leg. The way her body is positioned and the anatomy makes it seem like she should have forelegs. The anatomy of a dragon without front legs is different than those that do. Look at some bird anatomies. Those are helpful. I also did a drawing of a dragon with no front legs. I don't know how to do the link thing, so you'll have to copy-paste. [link] .

I feel so stupid now, haha. Great job on him, again. :c)
lady_miragon [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 16:15:53
Ooo! It did it by itself! Ignore the copy-paste comment. :c)
crazy4dragons [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 16:29:6
@ Lady_Miragon: I will be sure to use more references when drawing a dragon like this again! I'm just so used to drawing 4 legged dragons, I guess! XD

Bahhh! Why do you hide your animations? (I say that but, I'm pretty sure I know why.) Anywho, your picture is... as stunning as expected! The girl on the right attracts my attention especially.. her coat is so feathery looking. That's a really cool coloring technique you have~
kitn [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 1:30:41
hey hey hey! thanks guys!

and it's become a habit for me to just not save the animation
but next time i'll keep it on so you can see whatever it is you want to c in the animation 0:---)))))

docile_dragon [Profile] 2012/8/7 - 6:22:52
Lovely, the lighting is so nice here and I love the way shading shows the wrinkles in the clothing. Thanks for drawing her :)
kitn [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 1:31:16
thanks both of you!! :-D
i'm glad you like it heh!!! the p ose was really awkward for me, i'm sorry if she looks really off. i tried to cover it up with the coloring but oopsie!
docile_dragon [Profile] 2012/8/8 - 6:5:18
The pose looks fine to me. The only thing that at all bugs me about it is the fact that I can't see her far leg anywhere in the picture and that's a minor issue. Other than that the pose looks great to me :)
kitn [Profile] 2012/8/12 - 13:43:51

Here's some kind of water spirit crawling out of the water. Why a water spirit would want to take the form of a cat, though, I have no idea.
That water turned out a little better than I was expecting, but the backround looks a bit weird.

C&C would be appreciated.


catgirl [Profile] 2012/8/6 - 15:43:17
This is cool! I don't know why one would want to take the form of a human, either, except to interact with people. Maybe this one's disappointed that the local cats never come for a swim, and has decided to go visit them instead. (or perhaps it's mischievous and going to get them all wet)

The pattern behind it looks more like sky than water. If it's water, the patterns should get flatter and flatter as it gets farther away. If it's sky, you might want some way to tell where one ends and the other begins. I like the highlights, and how you used lighter and deeper blues (you might even be able to push it even a little bit deeper in places, for extra depth), and lots of shapes look nicely 3-D (especially that foreleg and cute paw closest to us, very nice).
pumadragon [Profile] 2012/8/6 - 16:10:25
your drawings get better every time I see them, and this new technique is awesome! what catgirl said is true, to make it look flatter as it gets further away you need to squish the highlights vertically. (wow that probably doesn't make sense) Like my inked dolphin, remember? Anyway, this water cat spirit is freakin' legit! I love it :D
dreyacira [Profile] 2012/8/6 - 19:30:25
I really love the idea! The expression on its face is adorable, so playful looking. And I like the whiskers for some reason and the ripples in the water.
kitn [Profile] 2012/8/6 - 23:55:50
wow you do a whole lot better with water than i could ever do! this is really cool :-)

"OW! Watch the Collar!"
"Sorry sn- er- sorry. I-I mean. Sorry l-lord Cane."
Cane looked at the Elven taylor, who had outfitted him with a set of Ebony gauntlets, torsal armor and shin boots. The taylor was now equiping him with a dark blue cape.
"I still don't get why I have to wear all this." Cane huffed angrily as the tailor buckled the cape to his armor with a brass chain.
"You are dining with me and my mother, and she wishes you to be dressed formally. as do I." Elenduil said, smirking at Cane's displeasure.
"You have been happy enough to talk to me when I was topless, why should this matter? And i thought you weren't a fan of elven customs!" Cane said, attempting to look round at her from the podium as the tailor began tightening all the straps on his armor. padding was fitted below the chestpiece and stretched down his abdomen, making it feel abnormally warm altogether on his body, and annoyingly stuffy.
-As I recall, she said she was unhappy with the rituals.-
"Shut it Daedrid!"
-I'm right though.-
"Thats's true. he is!" Elenduil chirped at him.
***

"How do I look?" Cane asked.
-Like an eejit.- Daedrid puffed from inside the dragonhold. He had grown significantly, and his wings were now taking on the form of the other dragons, but appearred slightly thin. horns were sprouting like buds in spring all over Daedrid's spine. Yet still, he lacked forearms. Cane had a hunch that the strange feel of Daedrid's ribs were to eventually grow into his arms. Only time however would tell.
"You look rather formiddable. A trait I know you harbor in yourself Cane of Riverhead."
Cane entered the dragonhold, to see queen Arya standing by the screen, which stood between her and the great snoring dragon Firnen behind. She was dressed as Cane had last seen her, in a simple green robe and the diadem on her crown.
"I thought Elenduil said this was-"
"Formal? Of course. I hope she is applying her armor to herself, as i shall shortly."
The queen stepped forward briskly.
"I see Daedrid is growing steadily."
"Less steadily than he should hope for." Cane said, relaying his dragon's words. "He says the shedding process is a mouthful. and he asks how the ah... to use his words rightly, he asks how the old gecko over there is doing?"
Arya looked at Daedrid with a whisp of a smile.
"He healed swiftly if you must know. but he wishes to avoid any more of your syliva getting on his nose."
"NOW! I should ask the two of you to leave. I require some time to change. fly for a while if you must."
Cane, without need of further demands, left promptly, with Daedrid following.
"Have you actually flown yet? with those wings I mean."
-Yes. It's quite exhilarating. fancy a swish?- Daedrid asked sweetly. Cane looked to him with his most confused expression yet.
"Fancy a swish?' What kind of question is that?"
-Just get on my back damnit!-
Cane mounted himself at Daedrid's shoulder blades, and held his arms around his neck, for they had no saddle and there were no reigns. Pressing his bat-like ear to Daedrid's neck, he could feel the deep breaths of his dragon.
Daedrid extended his wings, and the fibre between each finger seemed to expand and the moonlight seemed to shine right through them as though they were but whisps of clouds. With a mighty flap of the wings, daedrid dived towards the ground, then kicking off hard, and in a matter of seconds they were flying high above the ground.
With the wind rushing through his hair and the warmth of Daedrid's breaths flowing like rapid water, blowing back at him, cane felt himself submitting to throahs of adrenaline and extasy such that he had never felt before.
"HEY DAEDRID!" Cane shouted against the wind.
-What do you think?-
Cane was overwhelmed.
"THIS IS AWESOME!"
-I know, right?- Daedrid banked left accross a valley of highly grown trees. he spiralled his flaps to gain speed.
"Can you tell where you are going?" Cane said at the first opportunity when they simply resided to gliding around.
When his answer Came, he felt a sensation of dread and excitement shower over him.
-no. but where would the fun be if i could?-
out of nowhere, a dark rose-pink mass came bursting from the forests below.
"Daedrid, look out!" Cane screamed at the top of his lungs, for the creature was less than an inch from them, primed for collision.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry this took so long people. I enjoyed drawing Daedrid in this shot, cuz' i got a view of the spine. Towards the end I kinda rushed it, but there is a reason behind that.
I'm heading back to Donegal today see, andb this time for a while longer. This will be my last post for ages, for that reason.
To everybody at NDA I wish a very pleasant summer holiday, and Puma', don't you dare give up. Your art is amazing and is improving swiftly, I want to see more of all of it when I get back!
enough tidings. C&C would be great for both the pic' and the chapter. Cya everybody, and last words.

"Be... excellent to each other... and PARTY ON DUDES!!!"


lady_miragon [Profile] 2012/8/6 - 9:17:3
I like the perspective you chose. It's cool to see how Daedrid has transformed some from his previous form.
Bye Wolven! We're gonna miss your art here and your stories! Have fun in Donegal!
pumadragon [Profile] 2012/8/6 - 15:1:4
Thank you for the encouragement, we all will miss you a lot! My favorite part was when Daedrid said Cane looked like an eejit, lol. I like his new wings a lot! Have fun, can't wait to hear from you again!

A reference for moonsunstar. Thanks for drawing her for me! I love seeing your art and it's SOO good! I can't wait to see Lady Miragon drawn from such a gifted artist! XD
I will draw a close up of the spines (for color of those and the talons), a close up of the tail and plates on the underside. It's hard to see, but the plates slightly over lap each other (the color of the plates are slightly more purple than the body, but still pretty dark in my mind).


lady_miragon [Profile] 2012/8/5 - 23:3:35
P.S: I didn't color the body because I stink at it, but you got the general idea for her hide from the other drawing.
