Description For Bix has tamed the ferocious evil birdy. >:U

Dra and her fear of birds. Always makes a cute picture. If you haven't, check it:

I couldn't help but keep remembering this picture as I drew this one.

This style of drawing/coloring is really addicting. I can't help but like it a LOT. Inspired by the 3rd ending of Beelzebub: [link]
I still have a long long long way to go to get up to their quality... and try the actual drawing style. But, I didn't do horribly I think(?).
Please watch the video if you're going to critique me. Then you can see the coloring style I was trying for. I think I mostly need help on color theory... hue, saturation...and the BG. I think.

You can see my step by step process of this on Tumblr. Including the first picture I did of this over a year ago! [link] [link]

This one is so sweet. I think you did such a lovely job on it. I do love this coloring style and you definitely did it justice. Their expressions are so cute XD And I just love that bird.

I don't know how we're supposed to post roleplays up, but as soon as I'm accepted, I need to post one between me and Nexas. x3

Rina-ran In reply to X-LaLa [2011-11-26 05:04:03 +0000 UTC]

Oh, just retype them (for points, otherwise you can copy/paste just to share...or prove y'all had an RP...so some points. Retyping=the most points) and submit to DA like literature (such as the profile and Vatil's story you've been doing). Then you can submit it to the club like any other deviation. I'll walk you through that if you need me to when the time comes.

Oh...we were discussing this the other day...week... ha ha. I remember we came up with a couple ideas and finally settled on one, but I'm going to have to ask her creator again.

I'll get back to you on that?

Rina-ran In reply to Shelia13 [2011-11-03 21:12:13 +0000 UTC]

Well...there's two ways to remedy that. A top this box...as you see it when it appears in your messages... right above these words it should say:

"MarinaTsunamia posted a reply on Deviation Name..."

And you're able to click reply or the Deviation name...and reread what the conversation was about.

I rather like this piece. It really surprised me that you built the color up and went back with the outlines. I would have thought it easier to work the other way around. Maybe that is just how my brain is wired.
