Description
Well here we are... not that it really matches up to 's quality, but it's my take on his character and my half of our art trade. I really need to practice on realistic clothing...Tem drew Hydrex the Otter and a brilliant job he made of him! [link]
Anyway, Temiree poses in front of the famous Tapestry in the Great Hall of Redwall Abbey... and I bet Martin the Warrior wonders why everyone keeps trying to copy him!

Thanks!
Well, yeah... I guess I was kind of cheating there...
Adobe Photoshop has a "texturiser" effect where you can make it add a sort of canvas, burlap, or even brick texture to the selected area or layer. All I have to do is make sure it's not too severe that it distracts from the picture.

Temiree [2007-09-14 20:50:44 +0000 UTC]
Nicely done. ^^ The textures are pretty good (especially the one of the tapestry, canvas texture?) and you got his sword down pretty well.
Good work. ^^

Burlap texture, actually... I thought it looked best for the tapestry.
I know it's hardly up to your standard, but I tried...
Thanks!

Well, the tapestry was mostly spruced up by the "burlap texture" effect that Photoshop was able to add, but yeah... I'm pretty pleased with how well it turned out!
Thanks a lot, Luke!

Looks like you put a fair bit of work into this one
The shading and highlighting is well done, although Temiree's muzzle looks a bit odd (too big, maybe?) and his right arm doesn't look quite right anatomically. Definitely a very good piece over all, though

DCLeadboot In reply to Crosell [2007-09-13 20:34:31 +0000 UTC]
Perhaps the arm was shaded slightly wrong there... otters do have fairly large noses, though.
Thanks for the comment!

Hey that's quite an awesome Trade you've done here xD especially the shading you've done on the fellow character. It looks great! And so does the background! I be Temiree will be very pleased to see this.

Rugalb95 In reply to DCLeadboot [2007-09-12 19:46:11 +0000 UTC]
Yeah he spreads out Dan's fingers and then starts stabbing his sword inbetween the spaces. Going faster each time, hopefully not stabbing Dan's fingers by accident.LOL!
A famous little game seen in the movie, Aliens.

Danbuster: Haven't seen that game, but you'd never get me to hold still long enough... I've never even been a dummy for a knife-throwing circus performer! I may be crazy, but not that crazy...
Temiree: Sounds rather silly to me... I never mess about with this thing! I'd rather go and drink a barrel of Hotroot Soup!

DCLeadboot In reply to Frobman [2007-09-12 07:56:48 +0000 UTC]
Thanks... yeah, the texture for the tapestry is one of Photoshop's. Sort of burlap effect, which rather fitted with the material along with the shading and colouring I used.
