I prefer not to find out, one way or another.

Believe it or not, simply looking at a naked person does not equal instant, magical arousal. I'm guessing you're a virgin?

I didn't say it did, dick. In fact, I alluded that the precise opposite was true, but proceeded to state that I would probably be uncomfortable anyway.

Ass.

Oh, whoops. I misread.

Are we still BFF?

If the model's hot, though, it can be awkward before and afterward.

No, it isn't arousing, really. You don't have time to play around and get horny. Trust me, if it were possible, I'd get all the jollies I could, but it just doesn't work that way. Art saps all the fun out of nudity .

Ah, apparently the model sometimes sees it differently.

Edge looks a bit young in that piece, although it might simply be his expression. It's hard to picture him without a self-secure smile or sinister laugh on his lips.

Hey, he's got more personality than that!

True enough.



...how would you describe the look on his face while he was devouring a certain someone's eye balls?

Jubilant? Victorious? But that's because it was a really, really awesome part of a really, really awesome day for him .

I sort of want to draw part of that scene, but it seems like it would aggravate the already sizeable disparity between the "Haves" and the "Have-Nots" of my illustrative attentions .

You know, I think he looks afraid. It's kind of the look I'd expect off a man who just saw someone get up from what should be a killing blow.

There's really nothing to it at all. I had some apprehension right beforehand and at the very beginning, but then it's really no big deal.

Extremely awesome, especially Ryvara. I don't think we've seen her much since she turned Evil.

...

Ryvara's fangs are a recent "development", I assume? They do seem quite in keeping with her overall transformation.

And I really like Desunisus' double pupil. Indeed, I've incorporated a similar concept into my own works. It really adds visual interest to the face of a character.

It's visual interest, but it makes it much more difficult to show where she's actually looking, so I've been considering tossing the idea. I'm still uncertain.

Pick, all of those drawings are simply spectactular.

However theres something that bugs me in the last two and thats the eyes.

In this eye kinda slides through, it might be intentional so it'd be just me complaining but that kinda stuck out. Also, this, it might be a function of the drawing style but the eye here looked abit flat.

Ah, excellent! Art improvements for two cards. That pic of Ryvara is really bitchin. Edge gets to keep the one with the spider web, I think.

Well Some friends were over and they saw this on the PC, They all agree THEY approve of this art, They thought you were some sort of professional artist for some new anime.. I read out loud chapter one of Dark Counclers; they thought it was a great piece of art. Dan, Dan, Alex, Drumman and Trumbeta all want to thank you through me.

Dan has one question though, were you taught, or did you learn yourself how to draw.

EDIT yes I know I have 2 friends named Dan. Shoot Me.

I honestly don't know what you mean by "slides" in this context, so you'd need to explain more for me to answer that. As for Desunius' eye, she is directly facing the light. There is no logical way that it can be shaded where visible (it would be darker where her hair is blocking it, but that is not shown.)

Thank you very much, I appreciate that a lot .

I had some art instruction around fifth grade from my grandma, and I took high school art classes my last two years. Aside from that, I am self-taught. It took a phenomenal amount of time and study. I usually draw at least an hour a day.

Some random stuff:

The first reminds me of some artwork I've seen done for Tolkien's literature; I can't remember the name of the artist, though. Considering the setting, if perhaps not the style, of DC, it's rather fitting.

Chibi Umber looks so deceptively harmless!
