For ~Denkomaru

Wow, glad that's finally done. Actual image is about 4 times the fullview size. I hope you like it!


I will do commissions like this one for $15+ depending upon the complexity. Send me a note if interested!

Is it wrong to like the reflection more than the actual Moon Dancer?

Nice! I like the colors and the fur is lovely. Did you draw the hairs each individually or use a brush? :3

I drew them individually. It actually doesn't take that long though. Thank you ^_^

...And I thought thirty layers was a lot! I can't even see where you would need 250 layers! How would you even find anything?

I think you need to work on shading solid objects. Like the bandage... It looks really thick, even though I know it isn't. A much thinner line of shading is perfectly acceptable.

Also, is he supposed to have tufts of fur, or is his fur meant to be smooth?

I like the chartreuse ribbon, though -- the shading is really neat. ^^

I think the claws would look better if they weren't pure white -- any pure color (except black) looks unnatural, no matter the circumstance. Even bright stuff, like light bulbs, can only have a tiny touch of pure white or they look overdone.

That fur looks amazing! If I ever do anything requiring fur I hope I can achieve your results!

ZOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lena loves it!!!!!!!!!! But she can't see the black on the background because of her comp monitor. She must look on her laptop.

And I posted the Lyrocan. How do you plan to accept payment, anyway, if you don't plan to use paypal?

Lena thought you didn't...oh well. Do you know how to get the payment any other way? I don't plan to use paypal when I start offering commissions.

They could transfer money to your bank account or send you a check. That can be a bit difficult though if you don't want to give out your address.

But Lena doesn't have a bank account...

You could get one at the bank by your house. You would probably need an initial deposit.

And you expect that my parents would allow this? They don't want me selling crappy work.

You'll just have to talk to them I guess. It worked for me.

Pocky-Machine In reply to Denkomaru [2008-08-19 01:05:46 +0000 UTC]

No, but I talked to my parents about it and it turned out that it was perfectly fine for me to be selling my art. It is my art after all.

I'll probably ride my bike down tomorrow and get a bank account set up. I'll have to talk to mom about it tonight.

I think I'll wait until I get better before actually talking to my parents about it, but for you it sounds like it's going well.

250-ish? Holy freakin' crap.

The effort on this is most certainly seen! This is fantastic! The fur details are simply amazing and realistic.
The visual of the reflection is gorgeous. And I just can't help but stare at the ripples and that ribbon and cloth.

Absolutely beautiful.

I am sending my friend filmmaker Doug Reid your pocky-URL so he can see your stuff. His family going way back are all art monsters of all kinds, so for him to be knocked out by your stuff is a very good thang, yes indeedy!
