This drawing was heavily inspired straight from the music OP itself, so feel free to look at the music link that I've provided.

Yeah...this took longer than I had wanted. @_@

I saw a lot of promise in this drawing and I found it sad that I kept procrastinating a lot on it, and with AX starting tomorrow, I wouldn't allow myself to give up on this~ >_<

I actually pulled off an all nighter on this drawing, coloring the clothes on them from start to finish.

In any case, I hope everyone likes this. I know I did~

P.S. To those who have interest in the game and have not played it, note that this is kind of a spoiler (with Sophie looking like an adult and the coupling and what not)~

_{And yes, there's a thing between Hubert and Pascal.}

P.S.S. I told everyone awhile back that I'm working on a video of my process making this. I'll be working on the video and uploaded on youtube some time after AX. Thank you for your patience if you've been looking forward to it.

Medium : Digital art // Open canvas + photoshop.

Duke from Tales of Vesperia, I wanted to draw him for a long time ~I love his design and his personality and I really enjoy the tales of games as you maybe know.
I also was missing my old digital painting style~

my favorite characters from tales of graces
its been so long since i drew something


Richard and Hubert from tales of graces

Oh gosh this is old-- And i just want to update my gallery OTL
I drew this earlier this year for the Tales of Graces countdown on Tumblr. I didn't post it yet because i really wanted to work on the background image (since i rushed it in order to make the deadline) but i accidentally merged all the layers. I would have to completely redo the lighting effects if i wanted to work on the back but that would be a pain in the ass so nope-- just going to have to leave it like this lol

Still need to beat the game-- SO NO SPOILERS IN THE COMMENTS >8U

Who is your favorite character?
Tales of Graces f is coming out very soon.

I don't think I want to do a picture like this ever again, but I like the way the hair turned out.

second of three chibi commissions for Richard from Tales of Graces! after my last painting, i was all ready to get back into doing chibis haha xD _{that painting was a pain to do.} im REALLY happy with how this chibi turned out! maybe the happiest ive been of all the chibi commissions so far 8V characters with more detailed designs tend to be more fun for me to chibi-fy for some reason xD i had a lot of fun drawing this one!

*darkangel6 also cosplays Richard, so check out her awesome cosplay! |D


and now i remember why his hand pose in this picture is so familiar... i used that same hand pose in a painting WIP of Elise ((Tales of Xillia)) that im doing D: i guess ill have to either change that on Elise or not post it anytime soon so they wont be next to each other in my gallery xD;;

im getting really close to my goal to buy my PS3 so i can play Tales of Graces f...! then i can go wild with the other Tales PS3 games |D feel like a real fan hahahahaha

My beloved Duke from "Tales of Vesperia" ~

Training at drawing linearts on computer. The lines are done with Paint Tool Sai. I love this software, it's just perfect for inking. I'm trying to improve with digital inking and coloring.
