Description
LOOK, ORIGINAL ART. It's another random creature thing I made just for the sake of making a picture.This is Nyte! A mischievous cat/raccoon/jester/creature thing by day... who's even more mischievous by night!
I'm going through some kind of mental crisis here trying to find my own style... I look at so many amazing artists' styles and they all have these really distinctive styles, and I get so inspired by all of them! I just want to be one of those artists whose pictures you can look at and say, "WOW, that's so-and-so's art!" ;A;
I also apologize to my new watchers and anyone who's left me any comments! I've got about 700+ messages to sift through at the moment! So while I may not get to respond back, I ALWAYS read EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. THANKS SO MUCH GUYS, I
'K. Now back to my artistic crisis. OTL

I know I am commenting late, but I couldn't let this pass without letting you know how much I liked this. This image caught my attention very quickly through the thumbnails in the deviation inbox; you used all the colors very effectively!
What impressed me the most was the "background", which seems to be in a gaseous form sipping of the character. Not only it serves as an excellent background, it also make the character very interesting. Overall, there is a very nice balance in hues! The transition from blue on the top and orange/red on the bottom is excellent, along with hint of texture that completes everything.
Haha I have a friend who is also having a style trouble right now. Her gallery phases through different style almost every time she submit something due to her constant style experimenting and exploration. I think your gallery reflects the same thing, and this is a very good thing. I admire artists who have great sense of experimentation in their artwork. And for you, finding your own style in this process may be only a matter of time, and because they have explored so much, their finalized style probably comes with a great balance.
I believe you have displayed your style here though, and as I expected the result is sweet! You did a good job in multiple areas starting with character design, patterns, and color compositions.
If you still feel like you don't have a distinctive style, that means it's probably in development :b I can already recognize your stuff by the way you pick colors anyway, heheh.
And yeah...long comment haha. Don't force yourself to providing a reply for me!

This comment means so much to me! Thank you for taking the time to write it. I feel as though this is probably one of the most thought-out comments I've ever received! Reading it has definitely made me feel much better, and the fact that it came from you makes it even more special.
I hope one day I'll have a "style" that I can finally be happy with! I guess as long as I'm learning while I'm experimenting, that's all that matters! I'll admit, you're always teaching me new things, whether you realize it or not!
So thank you for all of your support, even after all these years!

Oooh Crayons what a totally awesome picture! I seriously love your original creatures girl, they're so cool; this guy def looks to me like he could be a sweet new Dark-type pokΓ©mon or something heheh. I absolutely adore the colors here (you know purple is just my thing
And if you didn't, you do now!), and that combined with the glowy yellow eyes and GORGEOUS rainbow background looks great! I love the way the rainbow stream almost looks like frosted glass or something, that's awesome.
And haha, I'm gonna tell you girlie the last thing in the world you need to worry about is "finding your own style". I know I can't speak for the world but I always recognize a Crayon-chewer pic when I see one, and especially with your newer stuff... you're growing by leaps and bounds all the time. Just keep up the good work, my dear, the rest will happen on its own!

I just wanted to say I like it.... yeah I like it. lol
LiiLii I wish You could see what everyone else does, you have a very LiiLii style and everytime I see it I know its you. I think You confuse insperation, and experementing with not have a distinnct pov. But true artist grow all the time , but keep their core (Like you do). Just keep doing what you're doing and you'll see it for yourself. Try going back and looking through your old works and you'll see that crayon-chewer look has been there that far back.

Aww well that's too bad. I was really hoping that you'd like it. Darn.
Thanks for the nice comments Scotty Otty! May sugarplum fairies dance merrily amongst your brain because of them. Maybe someday I'll see what everyone sees... though I think I'll need special LiiLii vision glasses!

When I see your pictures in my watch page, I can say they're yours even if there are 10 other new drawing deviations.
Don't worry about it to much, your style is already great and quite noticeable ^^
It really makes me think of a Cheshire Cat for the stripes and colours (not sure about the spelling), but in a less scary way. Nyte seems the type of creature that luv to play a trick on people
Could I try some sprite of it if you allow me to?

crayon-chewer In reply to voltali-obscur [2010-08-02 20:35:30 +0000 UTC]
Oh my gawsh, I would be so honored! I used to sprite in my spare time, but never thought to sprite my own characters! I would love to see what you'll come up with! You don't even have to ask!
Nyte is pretty wily... just like the Chesire cat! He definitely gives off that playfully mischievous nature! Watch out! He might steal your left shoe!

Great, thx!
When I have some time I'll try to sprite it then!
It reminds me that I should update my other sprites on DA, I'm such a lazy gal
Think I'm gonna make it in the typical pokΓ©mon fight posture, something like that...I let you know when it's over :3
Haha, it's ok I have tons of shoes, let him play with it

I...finished it... *big grin*
Okay so, I hope you won't kill me for making him in a sort of megalomaniac stance %)
I had to change the colors a bit so they would look okay on such a small size.
I know that now you read this, you really are freaked out, right?
...
Aw, crap, I still dunno how to put the links correctly to lead to a profile, I wanted to put a link to yours in my description... *embarassed*

I can't even think of words to say except for THANK YOU! This is so awesome, it's like, the best thing since cream cheese on bagels! I'll try and save some of the comments for the actual deviation itself, but I really can't help contain my excitement!
This is Nyte EXACTLY! The pose, the look in his eyes... EVERYTHING! You should definitely upload that stamp to DA, I will use the heck out of that thing!
Thank you, thank you! I love this so much!~

I'm having a hard time finding my own style too, I don't know why, but its really hart for me to make 2 pictures with the same style, and everytime I'm trying to draw a pic for someone else/fanart I end up drawing it on their style, or something close... |l|OTL
But anyway, thi picture is really cool, the background is awesome and I really like the creature you created. XD

AHHHH I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN. @_@ It's like, really hard for me to remake the same style twice unless I don't do any new styles in between pictures. I HAVE GOLDFISH MEMORY. And whenever I draw fanart, it ends up looking just like the official art anyways! WHAT TO DO?

I think everyone goes through a phase like that at some point. I know I have. Even now I sometimes feel like my stuff comes out looking too generic. I don't know about you, but for me, I think it's just a matter of seeing my own work so often that it sort of loses its luster after a while. But that's why I come here, to draw inspiration from other people and find ways to improve!
That said, this is pretty cool! Nice colors, line work, and the smoke effect is really well drawn, inside and out. Good job!
