Description
Oh, "reading..." is THAT what they're calling it now? XDBehold, my first attempt at cel shading! Um... yeah, I know it didn't work too well, but it certainly looks different from my usual stuff, so I'm rather pleased ^_^ The characters featured here are Dorothy and the Witcher (and Mortius, the Crow XD), created by =Aboshi for her comic. A sample of her work of them (which is ultra nifty, go see it!) can be found here: [link] They're, like, totally my favorite EVER ^_^
Anyway, I had a bit of free time the other day and decided I wanted to sketch a pin-up style drawing, and Dorothy just kinda jumped out onto the page, followed by the other two. Don't look at the background, because it sucks.
So, about 8 hours of coloring in total, and here's what I've got. Hope you all enjoy it, especially you, M! *noogies*
Dorothy, Mortius, and the Witcher are (c) =Aboshi . Pop on over to her page to see some truly gorgeous work! -->

Holy SHIT. This is the first time I've ever seen you do colored line art! (that or I've been missing alot) This turned out REALLY NICE, especially...Dorthy
btw The blue guy reminds me of uncle Aloysus from the Courtney Crumrin series <.<

Hahaha, no, no, you're right--it was my very first time trying anything like this ^_^ I'd like to give it another shot when I have some time, though not an anything as big as this. It just took WAY too long, and I'm a lazy bizzatch XD
Glad you like Dotty! Most of the boys seem to ~.^ And The Witcher (aka the blue guy XD) is by Aboshi's design. I only have 1 Courtney Crumrin comic and I don't remember Uncle Aloysus from it, but I'll hafta check again. I'm intrigued now XD
Thanks for the swell comment!

It came out very well!,what do you say!? O_o The design of characters is cool,and variated,specially in Dotty since he's now wearing a "kill bill" like outfit The cel Shading fits better if colours are blended and smudged,the scale between colours shouldn't look that obvious,but this is a good first attempt.

Fun contrasts - She's bright, he's not. Crazy. Even within the clothes and all that.

Wow, now that just looks awesome all finished up. I love this sort of shading, especially on Witcher. His face/hands in particular are rather good and I like how the background came out. Plus, the chair came out pretty good

I didn't know this was Dorothy when you showed me it under construction... Ah, so that would explain the similiar likeness in anatomy. Nice! XD
And while you think I'm good at drawing hair, I still think to this day you're much more talented at drawing women's outfits. This is great stuff, and the background ain't so bad. If I were making it though, I'd have added detail to every book binder and scream at myself afterwards. ^_^

Dorothy's costume certainly looks interesting. That third eye on the guys forehead... what was it now- a sign of enlightenment? Maybe not.
