Description "Debbie" is looking FABULOUS if I may say so.

Ghirahim belongs to Nintendo.

EDIT: Made some finishing touches. Now he looks MORE fabulous.

I wish I was Ghirahim's sword.
That's all I'm going to say about that.

out of all the pictures I've seen, this one makes him the most manliest.

You know I don't quite enjoy the title, "Debbie" so much, however; you are excused but creating such intriguing artwork of me. I am looking forward to more, dear Mudora.

Nice job!

...I liked him better in black and white. In color he looks a little, uh, clownish?

Maybe if it didn't seem as though he was wearing a one-piece suit? idk

I only did what the official art told me to do! All joking aside, that's what he wears.

First time I heard about Skyward's villain. His name reminds me of Agahnim.

Ilionej [2011-06-24 23:02:18 +0000 UTC]

Haha! He looks more like a villain than in the actual game! Great job.


...though - his nose kinda confuses me. Looks like he's got a cold. Wouldn't be a miracle, considering his light clothes. ^^

Wow, I really like your take on Ghirahim; the piece looks textural and painterly like the official art, yet your own style clearly shows through. What I like most is how boldly you've used those purples and reds! Especially with his shadow at the bottom, the colour is just awesome. Love his expression, too XD

A really striking piece, amazing work

No matter what, he will always be Debbie to me. <3

Very nicely done, although I don't know enough about visual arts to give a critique I will say that this is a fantastic interpretation.

SuperDecimal [2011-06-16 09:31:33 +0000 UTC]

This is absolutely stunning!
I really like how you grounded him in a more realistic style - it looks like he could have stepped directly out of Twilight Princess - or a Zelda game with that kind of aesthetic direction!

One thing that strikes me (other than the great palette of colours you used - is the watercolour-like texture on this - it really makes this feel very tangible and that much more dynamic! And also, it really make this really sync up with the watercolour style of the official art!

I really like the more ferocious look on his face - it really contrasts beautifully with how fruity and flamboyant his personality is - and with that look, makes him appear that much more intimidating. Like as if, he's the same as before, but now with a more prominent malicious streak!!

Love the details, like the purple shadows being cast - and I really liked the way you made the purple eye-shadow work in a more orgnanic way as bags under his eyes, as well as make purple a default element on his colouring, like on his nose and hair!

And lastly, the lighting and shadows really work so drastically and make this look nice and dramatic!

Debbie has never looked so remarkable! Thanks so much for sharing this with us!

Long live Demon Lord Deborah Ghirahim.

I think this is the longest comment I've gotten from anyone... Thank you! Seriously! I wish more people could go in depth as you.

Once again. Thanks. It makes me happy as an artist that someone is looking that closely to my work.

The fact that people are calling him Debbie amuses me so. But where did that name come about? O.o

Mudora In reply to TwilightVestige [2011-06-16 22:21:04 +0000 UTC]

The name came about shortly after his first appearance in the GDC trailer. Nobody knew who he was, and the name "Debbie" was somehow coined in. It kind of stuck, it seems. Plus it's funny XD.

SuperDecimal In reply to TwilightVestige [2011-06-16 09:25:39 +0000 UTC]

The whole "Debbie is Fabulous" thing started in Zelda Universe with a few of us just joking about the character after his GDC reveal. :]

It just kinda spread out a little from there.

I mean really, this is just as good, if not better than the official picture I've seen for Deb

miforever [2011-06-15 17:52:12 +0000 UTC]

Really like how you coloured this. They're not as fluro(?)/harsh as his colouring from gameplay shots and makes him seem more real. Like the intensity of his expression too.

I don't know... after I saw him do his tongue thing I had reason to be scared of him... but I just like it when people are evil, to make them look evil.

Thank you very much!

When he licked his lips I thought he was a rapist after Link So, while that creeped me out, he didn't strike me with the same "evil" that say Ganondorf has, (or Majora, for that matter, who was on a whole other level).
