Description
So, I totally went to watch "How to train your Dragon" a few days ago and... wow, just wow. I admit I went into the movie with high expectations given whom directed it and mostly due to the Trailers I watched.Still, despite that, the movie managed to successfully blow me out of the water. Several times. Hell, I don't think there was a single part in the movie that I DIDN'T enjoy terribly. I loved the characters, their design, the story, everything about it.
I specially loved The night fury's (Toothless') design and the way they animated his body movements and wings, not to mention how expressive the creature without talking could be (major plus imho - had the dragons talked, it'd have taken away from the tale). I loved Hiccup and his relationship with the dragon; how he tamed it, etc. Just wow.
So yeah, Speed painting times! I'd been wanting to doodle something since watching the movie, but found no time, however, I finally sat down today and shoved this out in a couple of hours. Funny because I'm about to run off in an hour to rewatch the movie in 3D (yes it was totally worth a rewatch).

I watched avatar in 2d :< so I can't compare but.... I don't think LONG movies were made for 3D. My mind can only take so long. HTTYD was just right imho

Agreed. *nod nod* This movie has the best 3D out of all the movies i've watched in 3D (which granted, aren't a lot, but still)

Adorable! I like how you did the shading and lights here!

Daffupanda In reply to Mekki [2010-04-02 15:32:49 +0000 UTC]
XD Yeah I did soft shading when I speed paint because I find it easier to do them (in a short time) and they allow for mistakes.
PS - your avatar amuses me so. For some odd reason.

Soft shading is lots easier to do than cell shading.
And thanks xD That is my character doing the ketchup dance but because it is so small, you cant see the hands well. I am thinking of making myself a new avatar soon tho.

I suck with avatars so I just keep the same one. Always. <<; I commissioned it because, as said, I suck with pixels. Derp derp.

But when I think about it, I need more practice on everything :U

Also, testing out different styles and drawing methods is always good practice :3
Yay! Llamas
We should talk more often or I have to comment on your art more D: I am so lazy when it is about commenting on pics.

it reaaaaally is. I need to do it more often :<
LLAMAS WILL RULE THE WORLD!
We should :< and I'm totally with you there. I'm horrible about commenting too. I usually fave and go "prettttty I like this" in my head.

Lately I have been in a huge art block, and feeling very sleepy, might be the rainy spring. :/
Hah, My comments are usually pretty much same, even though I try to think what to write up for about 5-10 minutes, and finally I end up saying something like "Nice use of blue". :'D
