This is a gift for my dear Increase Blue. She has drawn me many many many many many many many beautiful drawings and I thought it was about time I return the favor. And this was my very first time drawing Edward Elric, so go easy on me guys. Oh and looky Robin... I am trying to get my lineart more soft. Thank you Arkillian for teaching me those tricks. I think the only thing that could have turned out better on this is the metal arm of his. But I tried. I hope you like it IB! ALl my love to you guys. ^_^

MinimaidTotal Posts: 1930Feb 5, 2006 10:28 amYes, darling, your lineart is much much softer now. This is swonderful, and the soft glow he puts off is a great effect. I think the metal arm looks fine, except that perhaps it's too flat to the skin? I would think an appendage like that would pop out a pinch above the skin line. --- |

Lady Anime79 (Reply)Total Posts: 2839Feb 5, 2006 11:39 amAh I see what you mean. I think I should have put a bit of shading around it and that will make it more 3 dimensional. --- Laughter is the best medicine and your face is curing the world. |

Lady Anime79 (Reply)Total Posts: 2839Feb 5, 2006 11:43 amUnfortunately I think that is how it is supposed to look. At least that is how it looked in the reference pic I was using. --- Laughter is the best medicine and your face is curing the world. |

Lady Anime79 (Reply)Total Posts: 2839Feb 7, 2006 7:57 amOh, I appreciate the Depends. I probably will need them. Oh and I may also need a barf-bag because I feel like I am going to vomit. I am counting down. In just a bit I am leaving to get it done. And I am taking pics, so be ready. I have one on my lower back right now. The one I am getting today is going to be a dragon that myself and another member on here named Dennis drew together. So that is going to run from about the middle of my back all the way up. Yay! I am excited, yet nervous. I hope I don't puke. I probably will. >_< Love ya lots. :hugs: --- Laughter is the best medicine and your face is curing the world. |
