Artist's Comments

Work in Progress.

I still have to fix up the clothes, the hand over that bloody shoulder, the hair, more tweaking on the face, and toss in a background.

I'm also not sure what to do with the red ribbon-ish things to the upper left. Right now they're taking away too much attention from the figure because they're such a bright red. I'll probably either remove them or dull them down a whole lot.

How'd u do d color??! this is amazing!
:iconreallurial:
Thanks!

As for how I color things. I have the program called Painter and use the "digital airbrush tool" along with the "Just Add Water" blender. If you have Painter as well, Jason Chan at [link] has a pretty good tutorial on how the "Just Add Water" tool can be your best friend. :P

"Hired."

I loved FFXI when I was playing it (I'm obsessed with WoW now though) but hot DAMN this is a beautiful image. Great work!!

Haha! Yeah, I'm playing WoW too at the moment. They're both nice games, but for now Warcraft is more kind to the fact that I have very freetime. Thanks for the compliment!

Er, very "little" freetime.

Boy, I'm having trouble adjusting to the fact I can't edit coments.

Yeah I know what you mean, you can play WoW for just half an hour and have fun, FFXI demanded hours because you had to stay in a party and grind levels so much :(

Yeah, WoW got a whole lot of things right that FFXI really irked me with.

Though the one biggest flaw WoW has is that all the quests are exactly the same. "Go kill this monster x-amount of times!" "Go gather x-amount of items for me!" "Kill this guy and bring me back his head... FOR THE HORDE!"

It's too bad we can't just mix the two games together.

Aye, it's very true. But then again, what would you rather be doing, fighting the same monster for a quest or for the monotanous mission of just grinding a level. Every now and then you got some cool stuff on WoW though, the instances are great fun :D
