Description
I felt my first ink was kinda bad, I'm gonna end up sending it to the scraps once I'm done. I decided to redo it, because I did intend on coloring it. I gave the first one to because it wasn't THAT bad. I admit to making some changes to that are different from the original sketch. I guess Heidi and I noticed some of the errors, so I did my best to see if I can fix them or make them less apparent. I hope Heidi doesn't mind. Hopefully will come out a lot better than that first attempt.Just to let you know, as I update or scan it, I'll just re-edit the image instead of uploading it as a new submission.
Progress or you can see the comparison of how a postcard exchange kinda works
Sketch and my Inks
Bottom is the sketch by and the top is my inking job. I didn't want to upload it to DA
Edit: 5/6/05: I am uploading a color "wash" basically just barely laying down any color to get an idea of what to stick with before shading. Has an interesting effect artistically - we'll see when I get this scanned this weekend the completed image
Edit 5/8/05 Finished. I should have done a better light sourcing job, but for a very smal postcard image, I can't expect to be overly detailed. I hope Heidi likes the end result.

I'm not that good, but thank you. This was a fun collab. I need to be more original considering that I was just fleshing out the work Heidi already did.

Well we are our own harshest critics. The reason negative comments bother me less, is that I always try to analyze what I do and try to figure out ways to improve. I studied anatomy for years, but I can almost never get past construction lines, I get so frustrated.

Too true, I know there are problems with how I create my art, and I don't usually take compliments as seriously because I see all the faults no one else can.
Also, I have the same problem with anatomy... I do better when I simply wing it, as compared to when I do construction lines.

Morrigan looks so beautiful because of her hair, face and outift. I love how you and DH did the anatomy figure and her huge boobs as well.
I love the bat horns on top of her head too.

Are these colored pencils or markers? Looks tasty!

arshesnei In reply to AndyVines [2006-01-03 16:56:32 +0000 UTC]
A bit of both, but mainly colored pencils. The kind I was using are watercolor ones I believe, because I use them to blend with some markers.

I'm not sure but originally this was a scrap. I kept working on it and updating it then made it a full blown deviation after the scan.

Awe ok, I don't have scraps turned on. That's proabably why I didn't see it before.

Thank you, I wish it was a little more well blended...though I could use a colorless blender to see if it clears up a bit..
