Description
The first model sheet for my new comic, this one for Loreli, she's a little shorter than I intended her to be, but oh well, it's not like she's stay this on model in the actualy comic. Side note, I draw her sword the way I like, don't tell me it's too long here, there or wherever, it's imaginary. I don't have to adhere to anyone's laws but my own XD-----
Edit: Updated with a color key
I just wanted to rant a bit about how many problems I've had with this stupid file.. this is the 2nd time I've finished and the I had it half finished like 4 times, the original files was apparently corrupted and thanks to my worthless $70 jump drive kept reverting back to it's original state. So thanks to a corrupted file, Photoshop crashing multiple times on multiple computers, Firefox crashing, and my entire system crashing I'm now about 6 hours behind on my portfolio due in 4 weeks ><

Biography Info--
Loreli-
Race: Tyrian - Humanoids, they look just like humans, except that they are more beautiful and angelic. They also have soul wings. Tyrian soul wings are bands of light coming from their back aligned vertically along the shoulder blades. They usually have 5-7 on each side. Six is the most common, Lore is a rare example with seven. Each band is about five inches wide and are diamond shaped where they connect to the back and flatten out the further from the back you go. They're usually two feet longer than the Tyrian is tall, they do not enable flight, but each band is independant of the others and can be used to grasp things. They can also change color according to mood or can be changed by force of will. Lore appears to be the only one in existance. Please don't forget her wings!
Eyes: Green (Jade with a blue tinge)
Hair: Blue-black. It seems black in normal light, but shines blue. At it's longest point it reaches to her calves and curls and waves. It's shorter in the front to frame her face. Please don't straight or shorten her hair!
Skin: Tannish-red
Height: 5' 10"
Profession: She is the Angel of Death and recognized as such by the Gods. This does not mean she is the Grim Reaper, but that she is favored by the God of Death. Her cover job is security for Devon's Tavern.
Weapons of choice: A four foot broadsword. The blade is crystaline caddalite and the hilt is black metal and shaped like wings. The handle is also crystaline caddalite with black spacers. The end of the haft is round and caddlite. The sword is posessed by the souls of all those it killed before Loreli became it's master. It has an insatiable bloodlust which threatens to take Lore over and drive her crazy.
Magic: Lore was taught a bit of magic duringher time as Cobalt's slave. She can manage defensive shields and energy bolts. With Zane she can also cast Redemption, a spell which restarts the timeline. This spell can only be used once for obvious reasons.
Personality: She is intelligent but headstrong and incredibly stubborn. She is bold and outspoken and sometimes violent when provoked. She is a gorgeous woman, tall and slender but well toned. Lore is strong and often times she can be overbearing. She has a very short temper and will not stand for anyone threatening her friends or especially Zane. She's generally a cool and friendly person and very charismatic. She will follow the rules as long as they suit her and when they don't, she'll break them in favor of saving a friend. She is a passionate lover and what she believes, she believes strongly. She is agile and swift, having a talent for acrobatics. She is extremely skilled in hand to hand combat as well as melee fighting. Lore's fashions tend to be very trendy. She likes neo-rennisance.
Drawing Notes: Lore is probably the most developed character. She needs to stay fairly true to form. The only thing I'm not picky on is her clothes, because she wears so many different things, victorian/goth is always a good failsafe for Lore. Her shoes are always heeled (usualy boots), most commonly a block heel for every-day wear. Her boots range in height from ankle to thigh-high. Dress shoes can vary, think 'classy' not 'trashy'.
Jewelery, Piercings, Tattoos: Her jewelery consists of two pairs of smallish hoops in each ear and a single diamond stud or hoop in the upper cartlidge of her left ear. She wears a garnet band from Zane on her left-hand ring finger, wrist adornments range from leather thongs to fancy colored ribbons criss-crossing up her arms, she's also been known to wear bangles. She owns a wide variety of necklaces, a mass of different length chokers. She can sometimes be seen wearing a silver locket, either on a short chain in the hollow of her neck or longer. She's got a tattoo on her left breast (see model sheet).

You are incriedible at doing the posing and the outfit on Loreli. Her hair is really soft as well as the beautiful expression on her face. The sword that she's holding came out really good too.

The sword looks fine. It's pretty proportioned. It really depends on if the sword is a 1 handed or 2 handed. The way it's drawn could be used for either but she would have to have a pretty strong sword arm. It looks fine thou. I love the colors and above all her hair! *is uberly jealous*

Everyone's right, you do have a nice tight touch with your line work. The detail is superbly done, especially with the expressions, clothing design, and the hair. I could only pray for an "nth" of your talent.
Tho, I was curious if you molded Loreli after yourself?

Thank you ^_^
I suppose an idealized version of me. Have her gain 40 pounds, chop her hair off to the waist and die it dark brown and you'll be sort of close. XD People ask me that a lot *chuckles* I would say she's like 50% and I'm 50% her. When she was first designed back in 2000 she was made to be everything I wanted to be but as time has gone on she's taken on more of me and I've taken on more of here. So it guess it's an even trade XD

I'm sure you exaggerate on your appearence too much. Isn't that what a close character suppose to be? An extention of ourselves, to be put in situations we'd never find anyone else get into. But, you're gallery just blew me away...I'm a little shy in talking to you now. You're so talented.

If you head on over to my webpage, the art sections are sorted according to date. It shouldn't be too hard to figure out which is the older stuff.

Yeah I went there yesterday, and even your older artwork showed a lot of talent. And that Flash animation is pretty wild. Did you do that yourself?

I need to do a color guide eventually/
Hair is black, with a blue shine, eyes are green like... it's hard to explain, sort of jade with a little more blue. She has tan-red skin, sort of like you would find in native americans. Her wings change color according to her mood or whatever color she feels they should be at the itme. Clothes, the boots are black leather, other than that, the clothes can really be any color, stay away from pastels. Deeps reds and blues and greens.

SilantWanderer [2005-02-05 00:22:56 +0000 UTC]
I think its fine. The sword isn't too long. Trust me, there are real life swords (I.e. Claymore) that are much larger! Lol. Good job.

Romanian-Enchantment In reply to SilantWanderer [2005-02-24 21:18:04 +0000 UTC]
Yes but Claymores are 2 handed swords. The longer the sword the harder it is to use one handed. (Just wanted to straighten that out, not saying the sword is bad, it's relativly in proportion.) ^_^
