Artist's Comments

*flops over*

How do some of you color this way? My goodness! So I decided to try the "color over the sketch" method and this is how it turned out. I got lazy on the background (mainly because I need serious landscape practice sessions), but Kaidou (the character) came out pretty damn good in my opinion. This is for a spread in my book thingy for my class' final assignment.

This is the "putting the character in his/her environment" page. <3;; So Kaidou is sitting on these really tall poles (I was going to have him sitting on a pagoda shishi dog statue thing, but I couldn't get the actual building to come out right, so I put him on poles) that are way too high for someone to be sitting comfortably/safely on them. =D;;; The wind must be wonderful at that elevation, though.

Enjoy~~~!

Edit - I changed the file. D: The DA watermark was bothering me a bit too much so I added my own.

if you'd be my star, i'll be your sky...
you can hide underneath me and come out at nite,
when i turn jet black, and you show off your light.
i live to let you shine.

Wooooow, so pretty.
I really can't see a difference in quality from the way you normally color-
I guess it's your super-artistry as always.
:)


Uwaaah, when you look at it you /feel/ high up...@_@

Next time out to sea
Bring enough soil to bury me
For I don't want my final jig
In the belly of a squid
Next time out to sea
Bring enough soil to bury me
For in my dreams she comes to me
Whispering of peace...
