Limely's fanart thread

woah. that would make you win scrabble instantly.

*shakes head* Geez louis... You leave me almost speechless, Limely... I can never color like that, and here you are - already proving to me that you're a master at it... Heheh... I'm lazy when it comes to painting.

*Blushes* Aww, well, thank you~ x3

A master, though, I wouldn't say, hehe~ Far from. x3 I still feel that I have so much to learn. :3 And if I didn't, it wouldn't be much fun anymore, would it?
I'm a bit lazy with the paint too. Sometimes I have lineart lying about for weeks before I paint it, just because dragging out paint and stuff and cleaning it away again later takes so long. But this shouldn't be a problem anymore, though. I work at a hairdresser's saloon, I help out tidying and cleaning and sorting shampoos and sweeping the floor (and sometimes give my input to customers who are not sure about what they want, but nobody trusts a girl with white and blue hair, lul), yano, and at the saloon they have these stands where they put their tools and stuff. Well, recently they bought some new stands, and were going to throw away the old ones, but I asked if I could have one since I thought I could maybe use it for my drawing tools, and they let me (had to drag it trough the city by myself to get it home though, huhu). It's very handy, and it's got wheels, so I can just push it away when it gets in the way.
Errr, but anyways, what I was going to say is that practising painting with watercolours is really important. It teaches you to plan before you start on something, patience, focusing and to be accurate, since you can't cover up your mistakes. Or, you can, but it's difficult, and most of the time it ends up looking worse than it did in the first place and, er, yeah. I suck at all that (focusing in particular), which is why I keep painting. Hehe! xD

Well, accuracy - is definitely something that I have very little of... And patience. I'm just a kid who needs to learn so much more. But hey! You're much better at coloring than I am... I wonder what 'rank' of drawing I'm at to other people? Infant, maybe. XD Heheh... Well, I guess you're right. If you think that you already mastered everything, what would be the fun of drawing?

Ah yes.... I remember when I worked at a nearbye salon... It was a disaster for me. I couldn't really stand it... Nobody really trusts a rather little 'kid' like me. I hate it when they call me that... But hey. It's the truth. And the thing that hurt me.... The people who worked there offered to color some of my hair purple for free, but of course.... My parents had to ruin the deal... Hah, ah well. I'll just wait a bit longer. Not like it's the end of the world, after all.

I don't think anyone can get to a point where they have actually mastered everything fully. That'd be insane. xD
Remember, you're young, nobody expects you to be Da Vinci or Van Gogh already. ;D Everyone start somewhere.

I've worked at the saloon for quite some time now, since last summer, I think. It's been a nice experience. I would never want to be a hairdresser myself, though.
It was actually my mother who suggested I'd volunteer for being a modell at the hair-dressing-thing where they coloured my hair the way it is now, even though she knew they would most likely colour my hair in crazy colours. x3

I don't think I know any human being who thinks they've mastered every little detail in art. That's just... not logical. Can't be...

Well, I for one love your hair. X3 Mine's just a plain black... Bleh. At least it really suits my personality.

Psssh, black can be really awesome too! : D

Anyways, more junk for you. Murfy this time, because I love the little guy.

Yowza, he looks great! Love the outlines... If I ever did anything like this, it would be one of the most messiest things you'll see.

Hehe, thanks. : D

I love mess. D:

that's...kinda wierd. i think i liked your many other pictures of murfy better.

Really? I liked this one the best of all I've done so far. I totally fell in love with the lines, lul, but then again, we're all different. ;D

I liked all your art. There's not really a particular one I like best... I can't make up my mind. X3

Murfy's not a character you see drawn often, which makes all of this even better.

I know I posted on RaymanZone for you art, but I can't help but do it again. XD You have an awesome art style.

I should learn how to draw Murfy soon... I can't work without learning how.

Lul, I'm at the library, taking an internet-test, since I don't want to use my grandparents pc. It's prone to break down and ruin my test any minute.

Anyways, thank you~ :3

Bray, if you'd like to, I could make a step for step-sheet showing how I think when I draw Murfy. It's really easy, but on the other hand, maybe you'd like to figure it out for yourself. ;3

Yeah, I'll manage. Thanks anyways! 83 Normally I have to look at the character for a long time, memorizing each minor detail - before I draw them.

Yes, I think that's the best way to do it too. Good luck! : D

your art is very good. very very well done indeed.
(i know my comments are as boring as a rock)

it's the thought that counts, soxfan.

Hurr hurr, HC is right. :3

Thanks for the compliments. : D
