Description Feels good to take a break from my Renaissance and Wolfsbane work. Here is an Art Trade with the lovely, the talented, the one and only, Dark-Clawtron [link] of the Deadly Isles of Doom. (I completely made that last bit up. Blame the coffee overdose. Still, you can't deny that it sounds cool.)


Here we have Dark-Clawtron's beautiful Lycja [link] demonstrating her shocking powers with another avid fan of lightning, my very own Deyan Reign. Now, I don't know much about her, but let me tell you, she is an awesomely-designed OC, and my tribute does not do her justice at all. For those of you not watching Dark-Clawtron already, be sure to check her gallery out; I guarantee it won't disappoint. Anyways, this isn't my first Art Trade. I've done one with Linear-Toffee before [link] and this certainly isn't the first I've done with a large amount of bolts crackling everywhere. However, I believe it is my first where I've drawn another artist's character AND one of my own in a picture that is not part of Tournament. So, YAY, tiny milestones!

Note: I know it's over-saturated. But I liked the electrifying impact of this one much more my previous version. Yes, I lost a lot of lighting and shadow effects (yet I wonder if dark tones are capable of existing when you have bright lights all over you) but I much more pleased with the overall effect of this over-saturation. Also, this was before Deyan got on the bad side of Siegfried von Eisenhower, which is why he's still decked in blue.

Remember, don't forget to visit Dark-Clawtron's gallery!

Lycja is a viable OC, and I have a link of her in the description somewhere, I believe. Deyan, well, he's kinda dead right now. As in, dead-dead. He got on the bad side of someone who didn't quite admire his disregard for innocent human lives.

Danerboots In reply to Rafael-Domination [2011-10-07 04:43:56 +0000 UTC]

Too bad he is dead-dead. He seems cool-cool.

Rafael-Domination In reply to Danerboots [2011-10-07 04:48:05 +0000 UTC]

Oh, he'll be brought back, but as an errand-boy. That should cut his arrogance down a notch.

Rafael-Domination In reply to Pen-Murderer [2011-09-27 04:57:20 +0000 UTC]

I hope you meant to say lightning, because that one is simply just a bunch of stacked Gaussian Blur Effects. If you really meant to say lighting, then I must now admit that I was just winging it. I just...kind of fudged stuff around, painted in what looked like it made sense. O____o

Thanks for dropping by!

Lol, no worries. I kinda just panicked a little because I had no idea how to explain my lighting.
