This one pretty impresses me with its hatching (I hope "hatching" is appropriate word, sorry for my Google translation ). Strongly differs from your usual drawings, thanks to shadowing.

Reminds me of when i had to draw to get in the groove for animation. I love the lines , the best art is doodles in my opinion. It reminds me of Fizzgig mixed with Hagrid gone wild.

Hmm. I'm notsure. Maybe the tree limbs can extend to that side. It just looks very blank.

Hey Er, I like this character. It's kinda weird I was thinking about owls the other day and how cool they looked. I could see him running around in dark alleys and eating rats with another caped crusader I know. I like the design and the hair style. Would you intend to write this character with a spirit bond to his pet. And in addition if such a phenomena existed would owl man suffer from gastral indigestion if his bird did?

basakward In reply to Superbum [2005-08-24 02:58:32 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I'm glad you like him. Yes, I would like to use him in.. something. I haven't worked out their "digestive-bond" details yet. *l*

onigrift [2005-08-18 08:32:20 +0000 UTC]

wow, lovely picture, if you can, perhaps you should try an inked version wiht a soft tipped paintbrush. this is a lovely work, the soft pencle sading really brings out the mood and lighting of this person, theres a strainge attractipon to the eye from this picture.

basakward In reply to onigrift [2005-08-19 19:54:20 +0000 UTC]

Nice idea! I may try that sometime, or I may color this one.. Not sure yet!

onigrift In reply to basakward [2005-08-19 19:56:44 +0000 UTC]

NO NO! dont colour it, if you do, it may loose its feeling, if you know what i mean, leaving it in that grey pencle like look is perfect, ive seen alot of wonderfull art trashed because they were colourd, like ive said, a nice inked version would look super.

That looks awesome, looks like character design from an awesome m ovie. Absolutely fantabulous

I particularly love the pose, so animalistic, and putting him next to an actual owl was a great idea.

Another thing I like is the crosshatching, perfect for the mood of the pic _
