Well, not quite, I need to add a fadey text effect on the pic with PS and a quote. But the picture's done! I'm so happy.
Uhhh.. let's see. Spent so much time on this pic, but the sketching was the majority.
6 hours sketching, 1 hour inking, around 4 hours painting and tough-up work.. 11 hours?! X_X
Crammed into three days of bliss and drawing drawing drawing. Draw draw draw.
I used some new effects in this pic, like the splattery effect and the shiny and I actually attempted a background though you can't see it! C: SMOOT.
This was done on my last sheet of GOOD watercolor paper, too. Goddamn, I need to buy more of this paper, it's AMAZING compared to the stuff I did my other works with. I even got to use my brilliant salt effects and you can actually kinda see them! <33 But yeah, I am SO PROUD of this picture. So much that I'm submitting it early without the text effects and everything! *impatient* I'll edit with the new pic later. Must. Show this one off.
Prettyboys are so fun to draw. Pretty pretty prettyboys! <- Needs to draw more Legend prettyboys, then, and Ouran prettyboys and Monster prettyboys and PRETTYBOYS
p--prettboys.
Anyway, expect a photo guide soon. I started one this mornin' because I was waiting for color specs on the wings (nearly died inside while making it, I accidentally closed it when I was almost done) and I had taken a shitload of photos while working on this picture. Yayyyy. You guys get to see my horrible watercolor techniques!1 :C
I'm amazed that I don't have much to write for this description, normally I would have written a lot more if I put this much time into my art. Hmmm. Let's see..
Oh yeah, I can quote this chat! Right. Some random crack in the making of this pic:
Neko (5:53:26 PM): I don't know what the basis of the picture is. XD
Kimi (5:53:29 PM): Uhhhhh.
Kimi (5:53:30 PM): XD
Kimi (5:53:51 PM): They're about to hold hands? XD
Kimi (5:54:20 PM): But stopped mid-way because there's a stupid wall and Kimi only allowed them room enough to squeeze both arms through.
Kimi (5:54:28 PM): *cry* Kimi is so meeeean.
Neko (5:56:01 PM): XDDD
Kimi (5:56:10 PM): XD WAIT.
Kimi (5:56:34 PM): WELL. THERE'S JUST SO MUCH YOU CAN DO WITH ONE ARM. *shot*
Kimi (5:56:43 PM): I retract the "mean" statement.
Neko (5:58:02 PM): XD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kimi (5:58:15 PM): XD I'm horrible. I know.
Neko (5:58:21 PM): VERY.
I also fell asleep in the middle of typing this, let's see what Kimi's sleep-worn brain can come up with now.
Hmm...
Nothing. Keep an eye out for the photo guide! XDD
Demian and Clare (C) <- A genius
Art (C) Me <- Still half-asleep
EDIT: Made the sky behind Clare a bit darker and added shadows to the clouds. Also touched up Demian's lines a bit. (I need to work on that photo guide)
Medium:
- Mechanical pencil
- Sanford (?) waterproof artist's ink
- Some no-name white acrylic paint
- Marie's Watercolors <- Chinese brand
- Lots of blood and tears. I think I may be dehydrated by now.
Time:
- 11 hr of work, time calculations somewhere in that horrible mess called the "description"
Not homeschooled. I just have to take this online class over the summer so I can go to Geometry next year so I can apply for some smart high school I don't really want to go to! Yay!
I should check when I go back. But that would kill my mood.
First off, everyone here at deviantART would like to say THANK YOU!!! We have received an overwhelming amount of enthusiasm for the launch of version 6 and believe that this has been our best-received launch to date.
You might even be one hell of a profesional, but if you don't SHOW it and PROVE it, how will everyone know? These facts are important not only when you are looking for a job, but in any situation when you wish to showcase your work. I decided to share a few guidelines that might help you give the best of yourself and help you be a better profesional.
`karemelancholia is one of the most genuine deviants you could ever met. Always active and a true deviantART cheerleader and supporter in every aspect. You can always count on her to lend a hand or get involved, and you usually will find her doing large amounts of both at any given moment. She's consistently reports on contests around dA, showcases the efforts of her fellow artists and shows her charitable side through various activities. Besides all of this, she's a truly talented artist which is why she's an obvious choice for deviousness this month. Read More
