Description
Download if you so wish, dA butchered it as usual.My Entry.
Character info at the bottom, me rambling at the top.
When I saw *katarrhe 's MTT adoptables in my inbox ([link] ), I noticed number 8, and was immediately intrigued with the whole species. So what does one do when faced with this? Go find out more of course! So I read what I could get my hands on, and looked at practically the whole Group of MTT's. Afterwards, I drew like 4 pages of them in my sketchbook, and decided I might as well take a crack at it despite the obvious interest of everyone else in the same one as I.
A problem arose at the end of the drawing, I wanted to fix it up further, but I accidentally overwrote my file with a smaller resized one, and it was even kind enough to flatten all of my layers. So I just played with the levels and color adjust until relatively pleased (though it is unfortunate, I worked on this all day.)
I got my friend, ~BloodyBlackSilver to help me with the personality. We made that together in a way, and they typed it up. I didn't feel right simply posting that though, so I rewrote it in my own words. (which is apparently 45 words longer than theirs.)
Anywho, the character info:
Name: Empythrii
Pronunciation: MP3 (Em-pee-three)
Sex: Male
Personality and other such things: He is generally well mannered, with moments of spastic, overt joy; However slightly uncommon they may be. He is adventurous and impulsive, which causes him to be easily distracted. Although he often jumps from one thing to another, when the time calls, he can focus well. When something strikes his interest, he often pursues it until something more interesting comes along, and thus, does not often finish many of his “adventures”. His compassion shows in certain situations, especially those of moral abjection. He tends to be cautious in starting or joining conflicts of any sort, especially fights, therefore, he often requires a good reason to do so. That said he tries his best to avoid conflict in the long run. Not a character of many possessions, he does enjoy keeping random objects he finds, or other rare belongings, such as “shinies” and strange objects. He doesn’t steal any, or at least not on purpose. He is more than willing to barter or do tasks for someone else’s shiny items though. Definitely street-smart, He does not often care of what other’s thing of him, and has decent self-esteem. However, Empythrii isn’t the smartest one around. He knows quite a bit, and is level headed, but when it comes to book smarts, he is lacking. He knows not of many facts nor figures, and is more knowledgeable of common sense practices. He is somewhat anti-social, and enjoys being on his own. Therefore his people skills are somewhat minute. As a result he can be brutally honest, a bit tactless, and careless in conversation. He loses things easily, but often finds that not to be much of a problem. When faced with consequence, he tends to muddle through it and hope it does not occur again.
Thanks, if you read all that!
Not sure how to do the copyrights here.

Thank you! I just use an opacity brush. Works out well, like a pencil. More pressure = darker line. Which is awfully handy, I love pencils. :3

This is exactly how I was trying to say you should draw the body! It looks much better like this~
Now the only things I think you need to work on are the calves/back legs and faces, but everything else looks amazing!

I'm only saying it's what you need to work on at the moment. Like you just said, there's always room for improvement, no matter how skilled in art someone is.

Thanks! I recognize your username, from *Fredtastic 's mention, I believe. I like your leopard print guy, Though I cannot seem to recall him name. Upon further inspection, it is Malachi. Nice name, I like that.
On the amazing thing, I'm flattered.

Aha yes Fred. And thanks!
And this piece really is. The lighting, the smoothness to it, is all breathtaking.

wow!!! i really like the detail you put in this one, your background puts mine to utter shame! I love the lighting and the pose!
I also like the weight you gave him, if that makes sense he looks like he has weight and I really like the style~ it is such a shame though about your file, that has happened to me more then once but this is still a very awesome picture and I wish you luck!

Manechen In reply to Zukuro [2010-12-29 07:23:02 +0000 UTC]
Thank you for the comment, I appreciate it! My background isn't super terrific, is was a slooow process, as I don't draw them very often at all. I had planned on giving him more of that weight, by attaching him to the floor better in the front, by darkening the grates a little, but I guess I still achieved that without it, good to know that. I was still a little foggy on that one.
Definitely being more careful about files though.
Good luck to you too!
