Description

Magic seal/halo is designed by :iconjoodlez:!

God I posted so many drawings with wings in a row LOL OOPS

I decided to change his lastname to Edeus instead of Edelez; there are so many things I want to change about my manga since I started it back when I was less skilled and made lots of questionable decisions, but his lastname is actually something I can afford change so I figured I should do it now before it gets mentioned too many times HAHA...

Using vibrant colours and decent amounts of contrast have always been really hard for me, so I've been trying to overcome it in my recent drawings. Not to say that high saturation is highway to success (most of the time it is) but I would like to have the ability to do this should I choose to. The latest few drawings have been my testing ground!! But I have a feeling that for future pieces that have a lot of personal importance, they'll still have the sombre tone that I use so much.

I've been also spending a lot of time in my recent pieces ever since I started to really try to let go of linework in my finished drawings. I'm pretty happy about what painting without lines enables me to do, and it feels a lot better now than my previous attempts are painting many years ago. I like some of the details on this picture came out, but the summoned birds and spirits are kind of a downer because I couldn't really get them to look the way I would've liked them to look. I meant for the lighting to be very soft in the beginning with the spirits basically blending into the background that was supposed to be light, but clearly things took a drastic turn somewhere because LOL THIS IS PRETTY DRAMATIC FOR ME... and the summoned spirits became a nuisance rather than something that united the foreground with the background

Keritzel is a character from my manga, carciphona.com , although he's actually immensely ordinary in the story


IN OTHER NEWS I'm doing a raffle in my store for TWO Intuos Pro Mediums for the next month!

Oo love the change of his name, it's very fitting to this drawing and his new powers, he really reminds me of an ancient Roman 'deus' here, from the design of his clothes (you render those folds and fabrics so flawlessly like :faint:) to the painting style! GREAT wings as well I'm pretty sure you're the wing-master of dA, your wings always looks so dynamic and vibrant yet also realistic! That's really a great accomplishment, I find wings so hard because I'm never quite sure how they fold/move...I should probably do some more studying on them though hehe ^^; You're a great inspiration to me and I love the comic, its beautiful artwork combined with very complex and intriguing backstory really make it my favourite of all of the manga I know, so please keep up the amazing work! :D
