Portraits of a drunken, cross-dressing elf (art thread)

[Kairanha]

I've spent the better part of today coloring rocks. gonk

 

[Kairanha]

I don't draw landscapes. Ever. Who is this Jedi that mind tricked me into this?

 

[Kairanha]

Character is supposed to have blue hair, but after some in-jokes I'm not going to explain... pink hair! :D

That background is looking pretty awesome eek I demand your jedi! scream  

[damecharlie]

That background is looking awesome! And I chuckled at the rock comment. xd  

[Kairanha]

I wish I was back to coloring rocks. Grass and plants in general are hard to render. They should all be destroyed. It took me two days to move an inch.

 

[Kairanha]

All them brush strokes. This is probably the first time my arm has died on me before I got bored and did something else or gone to sleep.

 

[Kairanha]

I don't always draw, but when I do, oh hey beer 8D

 

[Kairanha]

This is what a chunk of my background looks like at 0 size. It really is just a bunch of squiggly lines and psychadellic colors thrown together. Somehow when you pull back far enough it looks almost like a photo. Art is schizophrenic like that.

 

[ThisEmptySoul]

That's how a lot of backgrounds are made apparently, though it still takes a certain eye and amount of knowledge to be able to determine how/where to draw the squiggly lines and what colors to pick to make it come out the way you're wanting it.

Artists who have that always make everything look so easy emo  

[Kairanha]

Practicing my painting techniques on another artists lines by request.

 

[Kits Rose]

Well, that's... creepy.  

[Kairanha]

Kaori seems to get smaller every time she's drawn. whee

 

[Kairanha]

Starting a new project today. Injecting an extra 20% chibi influence into my style. This is going to be an angelic type so she's getting wings and the whole deal. And some armor and weapons.

 

[Kairanha]

Lunch break.
