LilimayhemTotal Posts: 1424Jul 28, 2005 8:19 amThis is absolutely amazing. I love this drawing, the background is breathtaking, it has a such a quality to it. And the trees in the back seems to be shrouded in myst, wow wow wow!!!!!! I also love this caracter of yurs is downright yummy, great great job Dennis! I have a suggestion to make if i may...it just draw my eyes, the caracter's face looks a bit too long ,and his chin a bit too pointy! But the rest is AMAZING! New fav! --- Dont take life too seriously, you're gonna die anyway... |

Dennis (Reply)Total Posts: 989Jul 28, 2005 4:03 pmThank you Lilymayhem, I see what you mean about the face. I have tendencey to make my faces a bit long especialy when it comes to elves. It's a habit I try to break out of but it sometimes slips back in without me noticing such as in this pic. Thank you for the very, very nice comment and i'm also very happy you like this one. *smiles* --- |

Lilimayhem (Reply)Total Posts: 1424Jul 28, 2005 4:18 pmAh! I knew it! I was in the bus and i was thinking about Eyseron, about his face and i told myself, that if you wanted to draw an elf, than the face is perfect! But if it was a man, his face would have been too elvish! Yes i do love it, it's my favorite! Youre welcome Dennis!!!!! --- Dont take life too seriously, you're gonna die anyway... |

Dennis (Reply)Total Posts: 989Jul 28, 2005 3:53 pmThank you for the fav and for the great comment. That background took more work than you'd believe. It was like watching ants take apart a dead bug. Very long and very laborious. Comments like yours made it worth it though. --- |

Lady Anime79Total Posts: 2839Jul 28, 2005 11:41 amOh Lloyd, he looks so awesome! I am so glad that you got this finished. I love how the background softly begins to fade the further back you go. You did have a hard time with this drawing, didn't you. Poor thing. But you covered up everything perfectly and he looks so.... HOT!!! Yes, Lloyd, I said it. He looks hot. There. Now I am off to go take a cold shower. Great job my friend. --- Laughter is the best medicine and your face is curing the world. |

Dennis (Reply)Total Posts: 989Jul 28, 2005 4:13 pmThank you Kristy! I was waiting to read what you thought of this one. I am very pleased with how this one turned out and that i'm getting such a positive response from everyone. I also would like to say that I appreciate the sympathy for all of the problems I had while working on this one. I don't think I would of finished this one if guys here at PD didn't keep encouraging me with your comments. But above all else I should thank my wife for watching the kids while I worked on this night after night (I feel like i'm accepting an Oscar, lol). Now for the HOTNESS! I guess he's pretty handsome and it must be true because even my friend Paolo thinks so, LOL! Thank you once more Kristy and now that this one is done my next drawings should come out fairly quickly. --- |

Lady Anime79 (Reply)Total Posts: 2839Jul 29, 2005 12:30 pmOh Posh, Lloyd. You NEVER disappoint with your drawings. You wanna know a secret? I am drawing a pic for you right now. Just because I haven't drawn you anything yet. I have drawn all my other friends pics but I have yet to get one done for you. Since you like Mythology, I am drawing you one of Theseus standing over the body of the dead Minotaur. I have the basic sketches done. Just have to add all the fine details into it. I hope you will like it. ^_^ Much love. --- Laughter is the best medicine and your face is curing the world. |

Dennis (Reply)Total Posts: 989Jul 29, 2005 2:08 amThank you so much Bunny! I was very happy with the end result when I finaly put down my pencil and stood back. One of the reasons was what you focused on last update. The water, this was the first time I had ever rendered water succesfully and it really makes me feel good that you complimented it *hugs*. I also want you to know that even though there were so many problems with this one that in the end I think it was worth it. I'm glad to see you thought so too. Thank you Bunny for such an uplifting and happy review. I feel like I just exhaled after holding my breath for along time. --- |

MinimaidTotal Posts: 1930Jul 28, 2005 7:30 pmThis looks very close to a photograph, Lloyd. It's one of your very best pieces yet, despite the troubles you had with it. It's very peaceful and serene, and one can almost feel the leather of his clothing. The foliage and water are to die for and.. GAH! There's nothing to say, except that this is one of my new 'favourite art pieces of all time'. Masterpiece, my friend. --- |

Dennis (Reply)Total Posts: 989Jul 29, 2005 2:12 amTo date I believe this is my best work and i'm very happy you think so also. Thank you for the fav my friend and also for this wonderful comment. To be honest though this one took a lot out of me. I went through problem after problem and now that it's done I feel like I can finaly breath again. Whew! --- |

Minimaid (Reply)Total Posts: 1930Jul 29, 2005 9:18 amWell, luv, at least for all that trouble you definitely have something to show. I know it was draining, but your hardships were not for naught. And you CAN finally breathe again! I hear say that breathing is good for you or something... --- |

karana kaouTotal Posts: 1094Jul 28, 2005 8:16 pmWooooooooooooooooW Dennis, you certainly have gone through the wringer with this one. But my word I'm glad you finished it. He has such an allure to him my friend! Almost looks a little like Trunks......And that's a VERY good thing. *drools* Your attention to detail continues to astound me, for I could not even imagine the amount of time you put in to this. Especially with your little blossoming artist to aide you --- "I am lost. I have gone to look for myself, if I get back, before I return, please tell me to wait." -Unknown |

Dennis (Reply)Total Posts: 989Jul 29, 2005 2:18 amLet me first thank you for the fav and then for the lovely comment you just gave me. I am so relieved that this one is done that it feels like a great weight has been lifted from my shoulders. This was not a fun experience for me. It was when I first began but then as problem after problem arose I became increasingly frustrated and irritated until it felt like pure hell near the end. But you know what... I think it was worth it. This pic has got to be one of the longest i've ever worked on a piece and comments like yours make it worth it in the end. I am going to my couch now and collapse for a couple of days. --- |

GuestieTotal Posts: 214Aug 9, 2005 4:42 amHoly Smeg Lloyd! This is amazing! It always blows my mind how much effort you put into your backgrounds. They really make the picture come alive. I think this is definately some of your best work. The river inparticular is brilliant. Great work... Wow! --- |

Dennis (Reply)Total Posts: 989Aug 12, 2005 11:38 pmThank you Sairsha! I had no idea that ferns were such treacherous things. I will be watching them from now on. *smiles* --- |
