Limely's fanart thread

[Termonaptir]

I knew what you were talking about as well, HC. No need to worry. Yes, I also do those verticle and horizontal lines on the head as well. It's a very good guide - especially when you can get confused about where you should put the eyes, nose, mouth, etc. Sometimes I don't erase it, however. A friend of mine likes to see what my drawings look like before I erase all of the unecessary lines. It's a total mess, trust me.

[Holy Crap]

i don't tend to use those lines, but when i do, i prefer to get rid of them. otherwise, as you said, it looks messy.

[Termonaptir]

But I also enjoy being reminded of the simple steps I took to make each individual drawing. So - that's another reason why I don't erase the lines on seldom times.

[Limely]

I don't erase the help-lines because I'm lazy.

And they have their own charm too, I suppose. :3

[Termonaptir]

Haha, exactly. I dunno why, but I find them to be rather intriguing.

[Holy Crap]

yeah, but you two are more artistic than me.

[Termonaptir]

Don't say that. All of us have our own advantages and disadvantages. That's what makes us all unique. I bet you're a great drawer. I just doodle whatever's in my mind. Very much depends on my mood as well. Normally I have a rather blank expression on my face, so that's the way I draw some of my characters. X3 Take my siggie as an example. I scribbled that while I was in lunch... I had nothing to eat and no one to talk to. Hence - I was bored. So that's also the way the drawing turned out. I can't draw Rayman while my current feelings are expressionless, however. I need to feel something extreme... Whether it be sadness, anger, or happiness. That's the only way I can draw him decently. It's quite funny, really...

[Holy Crap]

well, i love drawing but not in most forms of artistic drawing. i'm creative, and i can draw well, but i'm not artistic, so to say.

[Termonaptir]

Everyone has some form of artistic abilities within them. You just have to dig them out and reveal them.

[Holy Crap]

i'm artistic in other ways, but with drawing i'm not really artistic so to speak.

[Termonaptir]

That's perfectly fine. As long as you enjoy doing it.

[Holy Crap]

indeed i do. like you, i tend to doodle whatever i'm thinking of.

[Termonaptir]

Yuppers. It's a fun way to get my feelings out toward the world. Everything seems to be better when you have an audience to actually look at your art. Before I ever discovered the 'marvels' of the internet, I just kept my drawings to myself.

[Holy Crap]

the wonders of the internet...*sighs happily*

[Limely]

I love drawing emotions and expressions. Nuff said.

And the internet is indeed a good thing, or I would never get to talk to you guys. D:

[Holy Crap]

ah, too true.

Can I have a shovel? 83 Seriously, you'd really have to dig a lot if you want to see art from me. Most I can do are stickmen...though I must say, I enjoy drawing even them. I can't draw two identical stickmen, but I'm sick enough to like even this absence of talent, and make two pages full of stickmen wars. XD

[Limely]

But I would say writing is a form of art, too, just like dancing and music. :3 So we've already seen art from you~ D:

Anyways, a couple o' WIPs.


This one's going to be pretty much like this, except I'm going to ink and colour it... : P


In this one, I'm going to move the kid a bit further away from Globox, and the doll a bit further down, and Globox a bit further from the surface, but otherwise, the lines will be pretty much like this, except is will be inked and coloured too. D:

And I'm going to do something like this for limbless and greenbottles too, but I can't think of what they should be doing, or what the enviroment should be... Any ideas? : D

Awww...thanks a lot. ^__^ *hugz*

I really like the Globox pic! When someone has 650 kids, they're bound to lose things all the time. Good thing they have such a good daddy. 83

About the Ly pic....well...just one question. *rolls out a map* Where is that place?! Signal it and I'm outta here!! 8D

[Limely]

Yeah, Globox has to be the most adorable father ever~ :3

And that place actually halfway exists. It's inspired by a place I sometimes go with my dog. There's this flat stone placed in a small sort of strait you can swim out to when it's warm in the weather, and there's a couple of tall rocks placed around it. It's also a bit inspired by the gate to the Walk of Power, I think it was. Those Stone-henge like places were you go to see Ly.
