Description
Please, oh PLEASE full view this! A download for the fullest size is the best, but I really worked hard on this and the full size is the best way to appreciate it ;_;This picture was finished rather quickly but had a LOT of work put into it. In class Monday morning I started the head shot of Aranelion...finished it in thirty minutes. Drew the shot of Elianaron after class in about the same time. They were both drawn on SEPARATE sheets of *gulp* NOTEBOOK PAPER! O_o; I went ahead and inked and colored them, then lined up the pieces of notebook paper, cut off the excess, and taped them together at the seam. It appears just like this. I wanted to scan it and everything but couldn't stand the lines. That's where step two came into play.
After all that work, I taped it down to a piece of drawing paper, stuck a piece of graphite paper between them, and transferred the original outline onto the lineless drawing paper. After cleaning up those lines and inking them, I colored this once more and wound up with the finished product. Scanning it was a pain as well. So, after I'll say...umm, 4 total hours of coloring, (two for each draft), 2 hours of inking, (one for each draft), and 2 hours for the lineart, (again, one for each) here you have it.
Now can you see why I want you to download it? ^.^;
I'm pretty damn proud of this picture, and infact, it's going to be pivotal in a new three part series I'm writing. I know, shut up, I still have two fics to write. I'm working on them. Anyway, this three parter is almost a reverse you could say of "Our Parents" It's titled, "My Boys" and has Aerealei telling the story of her twin sons to a young couple, as they ride a train bound for Starshine Town, as she is visiting her sons for their 21st birthday. It'll be this picture that starts the story off.
"The three of us had to depend on each other quite a lot, even before their father died. To this day I still cannot understand why my kindred hated them so, for they were no different than the hedgehog children of the village, or even the echidna children on Angel Island. If anything they combined the best of their bloodlines, and yet for those who could not see this, my sons came to symbolize the downfall of their kind. In my heart, they were the symbol of my love for Armundae, and his for me, and they still mean the world to me."
Yeah, little preview from the story. Again, it's only a three parter...just like "Our Parents" was. I'll be getting up part one shortly
So thank you for full viewing or downloading this, and if you haven't, come on, it's just one click! *dies*

Oh, cool! I like that, but they don't look like twins, just brothers. Fav!

Well, twins don't always "have" to look alike y'know...
Besides the identical twins I based them off of are identical but because they wear their hair so differently they don't look completely the same.
Anyway that aside, thanks for the fave!

You're welcome, and I knew that, but I didn't know WHAT kind of twins, ya know? And I was gonna do a pic of my twin characters (identical) like that, almost, but I'm do a portrait that looks like it been sketched by someone.

It's okay ^^ they're supposed to be identical. If you look at a picture of them in my gallery their first style had them looking identical. Now I've changed it so they look different. Their namesakes are identical twins too and they both look different from each other as well which is why I changed it. But yes, they are supposed to be identical even if they don't look exactly alike anymore
And you have twin characters too? I'd love to see that picture when you're done with it ^_^

Also, since I'm using this picture as reference for the Mii requests, which one's Aranelion and which one's Elianaron?

Elianaron is the one with the orange mohawk...Aranelion is wearing the black hat.

Fantastic! It looks like you tried to do a little shading on the muzzles? (Might just be this computer, but that's how the fullview looked to me.)

ReverseTheEclipse In reply to NestTheEchidna [2007-10-05 00:54:02 +0000 UTC]
Thanks Nest, and actually I did. I used my peach colored pencil heavier underneath their eyes, along the nose, and above the collars on their faces. If any other shading shows up then, lol, it's just how I colored it X3

You're welcome!
I thought I saw some shading on the blue sweater, but the light from your scanner probably affected the coloring. Nice job, regardless

lol, this one was awkward to scan. The sheet of paper it's on is much bigger than the scanner screen, and the picture itself was longer so it had to be scanned in two parts with the top off. I sat a stack of printer paper on it to weight it down...boy was it a pain to keep straight

NestTheEchidna In reply to ReverseTheEclipse [2007-10-05 15:21:51 +0000 UTC]
Ouch, you weren't kidding about it being awkward xD; But it came out so nicely, I honestly had no clue you had scanned it like that! Maybe the extra weights caused a brighter lighting? Or the paper you used is brighter itself and the light from the scanner reflected off of that.
Bah, I'm rambling

Good idea to have different hairstyle for twins. I once knew twins who looked very alike... Every conversation with them was awkward because at any moment they could have asked me if I knew their name. Aww, nutbunnies!
I digress... Nice that you like the result. I might not have patience to re-draw a finished pic, and with my luck it would turn out worse.

ReverseTheEclipse In reply to Mephitinae [2007-10-04 00:50:33 +0000 UTC]
Thank you ^^ Aaron and Eli, (the twins how inspired them) wear their hair differently as well. It would be difficult to have to distinguish between them...although personality wise they're very different as well.
This was my first experiment with graphite paper and I"m just glad it looks nice ^^ I could stand having to post the version on notebook paper
