Guh! I'm so sorry. I actually looked at your icon and thought I saw it as one of the people who watched me since nowadays I just recognize people by their icons if they're new watchers. I remember your username though so I know you've been watching me long ago. I just missed it when...yeh...won't happen again. Hahah. Man I feel bad.

Thank you. ;]

Long time no post some art, and once you do it, you draw improves like 9999% lol!
Question, do you use color picker when you draw portraits like this??

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

MakaiAsh In reply to QuantumEldrAg [2010-07-10 16:40:07 +0000 UTC]

I use color picker to save the trouble, but other times when I want to be creative...I don't use color picker. Like for hair, I do my own shit. And for eyes, I do my own thing. For skin shading, many times I don't like the ref's way so I pick my own to make it darker or lighter.

So I use color picker for the main shit, but other times I don't use it.

Thank you!!! I miss dA and posting art too. I hope you submit more as well. I love your TOP one. ;D

QuantumEldrAg In reply to MakaiAsh [2010-07-10 16:49:26 +0000 UTC]

Aah... I see.. yea, at least you still do your own for some colors xD
I mean, to similar to the reference sometimes lose the idea that you draw it,
okay, not for traditional cause you can see the sketches~
Though I sometimes use it too xD I'm learning to not to get hang to it now, and it's haarrdddd lol

ea, I will submit something~ =]

Looks fabulous already! Maybe you could've changed the overall colour scheme, as it's too similar in effect to the ref photo. But it's perfectly fine in this direction. :3

sato~~~<3
looking very nice! but as always there are things that can be improved !
the lips look a little too wrinkled?
of course there's more to do on the hair. that texture looks hard D:
and the left eye! either it needs to be squished vertically, or elongated to the left ._.

i'm no good with criticizing lol. well they are suggestions but to me they feel like criticisms ._. makes me squirm inside to give advice >_>

MakaiAsh In reply to iyka [2010-07-10 19:22:28 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for the hair suggestion though. 'Cause it is real rough even though it's not done. <3 I have to agree with you there. I have a feeling I'll fail. Just like everything else. Lmao.

MakaiAsh In reply to iyka [2010-07-10 06:47:54 +0000 UTC]

Sorry if I seem slightly GRAWR with what I'm about to type. No doubt though, I always appreciate criticism and I'm glad you pointed it all out to me but...

Everything you typed I already pointed out on the artist comment. Hopefully next time you will read what's below first under my WIPs or final drawings please! <3 Other than that, I thank you for taking the time to type that.

And as for the hair...if I had showed you the whole drawing, you would have seen that I didn't even draw it yet. I only did the "shading" but the strands and the other parts of his hair is not even drawn in yet. Thanks again.

His eyes are okay!! Pupils wise. Lol. So shiny. Ya know, may be his lips is chapped like that in actual? May be not as extreme but you never know~* strip away the lip gloss or lip bum stuff and POOF! It is as you've drawn it XD

Gah, miss seeing your work. I love the hair. HOHHO

Oh! His chin is slight more rounded than soft-angular like the picture.

DON'T SAY THAT I COMMENTED LATE THIS TIME! RAWR!!!! You nut.

MakaiAsh In reply to chibi-chibit [2010-07-10 06:40:57 +0000 UTC]

Actually in the ref, his lips are chapped. it's so nasty looking but I don't know how else to change up the lips. Maybe not include some lines that the ref has so mine wouldn't look as chapped? XD

YOU DIDN'T COMMENT LATE. I love you. I read your note. I feel real bad for nothing being able to be there for you when you have been feeling so bad. I didn't know that it was that bad even though I did know it was bad. -bows-

chibi-chibit In reply to MakaiAsh [2010-07-10 14:13:54 +0000 UTC]

May be you can soften the colours? As in less darker tones for the lips to show the lines that way it looks like he has nice moist lips. LMAO.

*huggles* I love you too. It's okay hun. Btw, I went around looking for the soap you wanted, but no go hun. I may have to try those shop that sells those special cosmetic/perfume/toiletries and see. Though there's a chance that the price for it may not be as cheap. It may even be the same or more after converting to USD.

I'll check the organic stores too. There may be a chance it is sold there

MakaiAsh In reply to chibi-chibit [2010-07-12 08:54:57 +0000 UTC]

Yeh, I'll try to soften up the colors. ;] Thanks.

As for the soap, I don't want to trouble you. It's not an expensive soap so don't bother trying to find it in those more expensive stores. <3 My skin is starting to get lighter now...though not the lightest it can be. Hhaha. But who cares. I'm still alive ey? Thank you for looking for me.

Btw, I got your drawing printed and picked up. ;]

chibi-chibit In reply to MakaiAsh [2010-07-12 19:39:01 +0000 UTC]

*huggles* I asked some of the store clerks and they say that they don't bring in the brand, or that they don't even know about it.

T_____T I'm so sorry. I really wanted to get you heaps of it. *sigh* I'm glad you're lightening up. *hugs* though a little bit of brown may be nice on you? Or you're more for the pale and porcelain like skin tone?

KYA! AWESOME!

OOOH!! Keep the blurry areas on the hair! It looks good xD Erm the eyebrows look kinda screwed up? Or was that suppose to be hair on his right eye(our left) Purple gradient looks good

Hmm.. Idk why, but he looks like a little angst boy who would like someone to just give him a kiss. Heh. I think I'm lack of sleep now.

*huggles*

MakaiAsh In reply to chibi-chibit [2010-07-13 01:48:59 +0000 UTC]

Ah. I guess it's hopeless then. Well, I don't want to be pale, but I don't want to be dark either. I just want to get back my natural color but I know once I stop using the soap, I'll just get dark again from the sun. But I'll try to get some myself. It'd be nice if you keep a lookout for it. You don't have to go out to get it though. I know it's too much trouble seeing as how you're already going through so much! If you ever do find it by chance, I'll pay the price. If not, we'll leave it here. ;] Thank you for finding the time to help. I really appreciate it.

LOL, thanks for the hair suggestion. I suppose I'll keep it. My other friend said she liked it 'cause it looked soft. The other said it looks like his hair is moving. I guess it's worth the shot of keeping it like that and adding a few more sharp strands. <3

Ah, he always looks angry. I suppose I end up drawing angry guys 'cause my friends say I look angry all the time. ;__;

Hm. I need to figure out how to send the shit to you.

Puahahahha. I saw a blinkie somewhere once that said "Emo guys love hugs but don't admit it" hahahahha are you one? Kkekekekek

*chus* I'll be sure to keep an eye open for the soap! Ah you can send it through snail mail hun. The normal way. Much cheaper too. Though I hope my post will reach you and not get lost or something. Pray hard k, they have a tendency to somehow get lost for no reason or whatsoever. So it's pretty shitty =_=

MakaiAsh In reply to chibi-chibit [2010-07-14 02:21:40 +0000 UTC]

LOL. I don't mind hugs. I just don't give them unless someone asks for one or if someone gives me one. Are you a hugger? XD

Oh I'm familiar with sending stuff. Don't worry. I was asking about "how I should package it" since I'm giving you a certain something that isn't as easy as using big orange envelopes or regular rectangular ones. I usually just send letters. LOL, no way. I definitely know not to send it through express or what not. That would be pointless for things like this. Not like you need it in three days.

Now I'm worried about your postal service. LOL. I swear American hates me. I went every where to search for dino shit. No luck. But I have a long time ahead of me. I will FIND THEM.

Trust me, I'm having the same problem with finding pandas for you. LMAO. I was like UMFG don't they sell it like always the last time? I guess it was during olympics that they bothered selling loads of pandas. GAHHHHHH~* I'll find it too!! RAWR!!

I'm gonna stuff all your things in a box. A small one though. Hope you'll like it xD wakakak~*

I don't think I'm much of a hugger or the person who enjoys getting hugs. Not use to it. I only do it when I won't be seeing someone for a long time or if someone glomps me randomly then I'll just let it off. Though I do mind it sometimes when they hug too long, not that I hate it, I'm just not use to it I guess.

But I don't mind if someone leans on my shoulder or vice versa. LOL xD does that even makes sense? xD

I'm so glad you started drawing this. I've heard of Girugamesh, but I never listen them. I thought, "Well, Ash likes them, let me see what they're like." Gooood stuff.

I'm glad you added the reference picture, now I can see what you're so upset about. It still looks amazing for a start. I don't know if you noticed this, cause I see you have the main things covered in your description (eyes, lips), but something looks off about the nose to me. Like...the bridge of his nose is too narrow? I'm not sure how to describe it. Don't put too much stock in what I say if you can't see it, cause my computer is old and sometimes makes pictures look funny. Anyways, I'm sure the finished product will look great, you'll probably still hate it and everyone else will say how brilliant you are, but hey, that's how the world works. It's great to see work from you again.

Yay, nice to see some of your work again C:
I so envy you the ability to tell what is wrong with your own picture~~! It takes me a loooot of time to figure it out on mine.
I like how your drawing have more contrast than the reference.

And wow, lately I've been trying to get better in "real life" shading and remembered your livestream...You've got so much more control over pen pressure than me! OTL Now I love your work even more!
And I won't write "I'd like to see it finished' because every time I do it turns out it is finished already and I appear stupid. Hmpf. xD;;

MakaiAsh In reply to Incit [2010-07-26 03:34:57 +0000 UTC]

Actually, you don't need pen pressure to draw since I managed with my failed non existent pen pressure when I used to use my PC. But now on my mac it has pen pressure again.

PSH, my control is nothing. I doubt I even have control. Just keep drawing and you'll slowly improve. Just remember that digital isn't everything. It's good to switch between traditional and digital and then you'll realize you'll get better once you switch between the two. I'm working on some pencil shit right now. ;D
