Description hmmmmmmm, my pen died while I was inking this, by died I mean I buggered up the nib some how and it is being ornery and spastically spewing ink. I think I need a new nib. Lucky for me, I can get it from my art class! ho ho ho! If you've got a school art class, even though the teaching isn't fabulous, take advantage of the supplies ( I'm not saying STEAL then like some kids do, i'm saying USE them!) ^_~
Ink+Pen
I don't like the arm on the right..it's gimpy.

*EDIT* I increased the image size and made the background nice and even+black!

the detail goddess strikes again and I must say, I'm as astounded as ever. X__X Still mad at my less than constructive brain though *wants to leave better comments* gomen gomen.

It's awesome.
But I think it suited the pic to have the background a little uneven.

*shrugs* I liked that it looked more natural and less digital, but I didn't like that it was lopsided

The details are great, but there's something with the proportion... =/

blotchy-the-squid In reply to Inmoria [2005-04-24 06:12:40 +0000 UTC]

Ok, can you tell me wherethe proportion looks off? I was thinking maybe in the arm, but if I sit like she's sitting, my arm looks the same...maybe you mean the composition??? I'd like to know...

I alsolutely adore this piece. Valkyra are my favorite part of the Norse Mythos. XD I espiecally like the Valkyrie Freyja and Hrist. ((unneeded detail...)) I'm amazed on the amount of details on this piece. Her helm is just... as I pictured it and I just love how you did her armour. T.T

KKFKD! I need to show this to my english teacher, he loves norse mythology. This is such a great interpretation. it kills me how much detail you put into each picture. my school doesnt have pen and nibs and ink and stuff like that. they give us permanent markers to ink. fucking cheap fuckers. oh ill prolly get kicked off now. anyway...
