Description More fanart rarity from me!
Etna, drawn Realistic; the sassy demon gal from the brilliant SRPG Disgaea: Hour of Darkness for PS2.

Inspired by the chapter 8. Resurrection, 'Red Moon Song'.
Red moon, red moon...
Cleanses the sinful and makes them anew...
Shining brightly in the night sky,
waiting for the souls...
Who will be born again tonight?
Who will be born again tonight?

Photoshop 7.0 and Wacom Intuos 2.
Drawtime about three days... of which the moon took probably like 70%

Etna / Disgaea etc (c) Nippon Ichi Software (I think...)

I've never seen a version of Etna that's not been anime and its warmed my heart that you did this, its such an original take and view of her.

Absolutely! Same here, I fell in love the minute I started playing it, and it's definately among my few top favourites. I'm eagerly waiting to get Disgaea 2... won't have to wait long now XD

Isn't the second one set in the same sort of universe as the first with with slightly different game play and new characters?
I think its appeal was because it was so simple yet required a lot of planning and thought and didn't take its self too seriously.

LauraMaybrooke In reply to dendora [2006-08-27 09:59:15 +0000 UTC]

Yea, I think it's the same world, and new characters, though from what I've heard, it seems like everyone from the original makes some sort of appearances. The original really gave me laughs, I thought it was really amusing exactly by not taking itself too seriously, and there was so much to do...

Wow the background is great. I know every on is saying it, but the moon is fantastic. The hair is once again amazing. Coloring is top notch, the coloring on the skin is especially good. The pose is excellent it really give the character a lot of personality.

Thanks a whole lot, it's appreciated. Yes, the background was fun and a biiiig improvement over my last moon. I liked working with these dark colours, with a hint of pink... Thanks again!

Chibi-Kree In reply to LauraMaybrooke [2006-08-23 16:33:36 +0000 UTC]

Yeah the pink tint was a nice touch. The moon was radiant; it really set the mood for the whole picture. I wish I could draw such great backgrounds.

LauraMaybrooke In reply to Chibi-Kree [2006-08-23 18:19:05 +0000 UTC]

I guess I can accomplish those backgrounds when I really put my mind into it, but usually I'm so lazy... I can't be bothered to work real details into it. The person itself takes me so long to draw that I usually run out of patience way before long... though this was different, as the moon took the most time. This whole picture is based on the moon, so it was the most important... everything else was just a plus

Nice, I like it especially the colors those are really my colors ! Anyways background on this great, character looks cool, I love how it's a bit of blurry good effect! Too bad I don't know the game though.

LauraMaybrooke In reply to Robino [2006-08-20 20:02:24 +0000 UTC]

Heheh... I like the soft pinks, too... Pink wasn't SO my colour... a few years ago still, but... I guess it has grown on me. Thanks for the comment. Disgaea is a great tactical/strategic RPG

Wow! That's really wonderful!
I'm amazed of the coloring, expecially the skin - it looks very realistic!
The only thing to critisize is that the legs seem to be a little too short in comparison to the body.
But anyway, great job here!

Hmmm... might be... the perspective is tricky, it fools you a bit... Thank you very much for the comment, though, I had much fun colouring this one.

The moon in this one looks realistic with its craters and i love this pink touch which fits her hair really well. Hopefully there will be some Moons like this to see in the middwinternights^^
