Wow..just wow..I'm stunned every time I look at one of your penciled commissions lol. I sware my eyes would get stuck like they are if I kept stairing any longer at this. Not to mention the amount of depth going into it O_o. I deffinately think Alex looks PERFECT looking towards the direction of the foliage. The marble structure around him looks just stunning, SO 3D it's not even funny *laugh* One can't exactly pick a favorite part of this, because well, it just ALL melds together, it's so awesome . Me hopes Arkillian likes it as well as I do . *Favorites* Keep it up as always, such DANG good works.
I hope she likes it too! Thank you so much for the extensive compliments. You maked me blush.
I don't think it's quite perfect, but I'm not sure if I can fix the part that I know bothers both Arkillian and I... Alex looks too young. I can't completely re-do his face, because there's too many dark lines, and it would all get smushed together if I tried to erase too much... I also had a heck of a time doing the profile so tiny (his head is about 2 Centimetres wide) Ah well... I don't know if there is such an easy solution.
Hehe you're welcome, if it's one thing I know an artist likes to hear, it's flattery and compliments over their artwork . That was one thing I was thinking of mentioning was how small of detail you had gone int doing his face. Even the nose o.o;; looks like one would have to take a magnifying lens to one eye, and careful etch as you draw the face lol. Ah well, if he does look too young to both you and Arkillian, you could always say it was back in his younger days, when he was day dreaming or something XD. But otherwise,aside from that, I would say it's fine in my book.
