(WIP) Arcana Dragonia

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

Wondering if I should go for glory and just stay up until I finish…?
It wouldn’t take much longer to do the background/etc, I was painting pretty much all day (started after making that last post, actually), I stopped to screencap when Craig Ferguson started and because this seemed like an appropriate point to get a WIP shot before I do background/final touchups.
I wonder if I should stick a bleeding Crimson Cross on Lord Numair’s forehead? o_o;

…bah, I’ll do it tomorrow… er, later today. You get the idea.

also LOL @ mother, who saw this when she brought up dinner and thought Lord Numair was one of Robert’s WoW characters. XD; Bro doesn’t have any redheads, for one thing. He’s got a Death Knight (and Lord Numair’s Death Maximillian looks like something a Death Knight would wear) but dood is most definitely NOT a dragon.

“He looks dead.”
– “He IS dead. Dead and STILL has a deathwish!”
“Like… ‘put me out of my misery’ kind of dead?”
– “Yes! :D”

XD

(WIP) Schema Lapse

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

I was just going to post the most recent WIP, but I figured I’d throw both of today’s, thus completing the line art.
I tried to keep the middle/wide shot as close as possible to the rear detail, but that didn’t quite work. (Simply shrinking the details, repositioning and finishing them wouldn’t have looked very good…) Just assume a few seconds pass between the two views to account for the slight differences in positioning.

Also yes, Lord Numair gets a new Maximillian, the “Death” spec that is formed when he’s bound with Lord of Death.
So, that bumps the count up to five:
– Ralse: “Dark Rose”
– Lord Numair: “Crimson” (Episode 0) and “Death” (Episode 2)
– Hikaru: “Azure”
…and then the one Lord of Death’s projection wears, which is the Maximillian in its base/inert form.

Coloring this new Maximillian is going to be fun~ :D
It’ll be all icky and bloody in the general color scheme, but it won’t actually BE bloody… oh, just wait until it’s done!
Of course, coloring Hikaru’s Maximillian is always a trip. Shiny blue metal, laa~ ♥

But, for now, I need a break.

(WIP) The OTHER Red vs. Blue

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

Hm, wonder if I can finish this before 2/27 (aka Hikaru’s birthday)? Probably not, but I can try. :P


Dood, my secondary hard drive has the MARK OF THE BEAST.

…awesome! :D

(WIP) They Say Green is Sexy

Black Dragon Woman~
(something something something)
I’ve got a Black Dragon Woman
and I something-something-lyrics-fail… buh

*sound of record stopping abruptly*

ahem

FYI, Hecate’s outfit (or lack of, depending on how you look at it) does get upgraded between episodes… but in such minor ways that aren’t instantly noticeable– tribal tattoo down her right side (collarbone to hip), embroidery on the shoulderpads and loincloth, a short pointy cape, fancier crown (obviously). Not that it applies here since this is her Episode 0 FE Bromide, but… yeah.

Don’t ever expect to see Hecate in a frilly dress like Yoshi in the Akatsuki’s “princess mode” spec. I try to imagine Hecate wearing lots of clothes or armor or what-have-you… I can’t. XD But that’s okay because this is pretty much commonplace for female dragons anyway. (As a warrior race, Black Dragons tend to see armor and such as being clunky and a hindrance… and with all that regeneration, even if they do get wounded they can heal it all back within a few hours/days.) It’s hilarious to see her with Hikaru, you get sass like “aren’t you boiling under all that armor?” and such, since Hikaru was raised among those smarmy humans who wear clothes. :P

Of course, there’s something to be said about getting sassed by your aunt ’cause you wear too much clothes… hah!

(WIP) Stay Classy, Glast Heim

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

I get funny looks if people see me drawing things like the above, live. Mother did that Marge Simpson-esque “hmm” though coming from her it’s more in the context of “ooh, something naughty” than it is implicit disapproval… >_>;
I wouldn’t be surprised if in the back of her mind she thinks I’m a lesbian. XD I’m not, but, you know… optics.

Anyway, this is Hecate’s FE Bromide for Episode 0 (but except for Kit, guests only get FE Bromides anyway). I like how she’s the freaking Black Dragon version of Helba; the sass is extreme, and she calls out others (who deserve it; see sniper!Numair) for lulz and win. I have way too much fun distorting Entropy’s characters for my own amusement, though at the same time I think the end result would have been more or less the same. XD

And now it is off to bed for me… need to get up a little earlier tomorrow since (gasp) a Yoshi will be out to do a new machine config. Robert still has my flash drive, but I haven’t updated the installers on that for awhile so I’d have to pull new setup files anyway. :P
