Description
This is Crukk (guess the influence! ... If you're not Sharon, who knows anyway), one of the characters I'm using in my Rising Stars of Manga entry ... and this is pretty much how he leaves the thing, I think. Except probably clothed. :\ Take a look at him and compare to characters in some of my other pics, especially in my Scraps, and his purpose might become obvious.
I'm quite proud of this one, though I can't really work out why ... *shrug* I've not finished a drawing on paper in months, so this was pretty refreshing! ^_^ Especially as it was done over a period of about three ours, including waiting for the watercolour under the salt to dry, so just all quite spontanious. Plus the techniques were fun. And stuff. Yeah. The original's far less blue than this, btw.
Urrrrm ... pencils (still visible, though not in the scan), pigment liners, Ciao markers, watercolours and silver Sharpie. <3 Plus a hair-tinting brush. ._.;

Urrrggg this is so cool. @__@ I totally adore the colors. If anything, I think it could a bit more contrast... because there aren't any bright whites, I think there should at least be more black. But then, I love black @_@

I saw this and I was wondering whether or not if you did this with watercolor as well. Good thing I checked the artist comment, because now I know. Haha.
Lovely contrast of cool colors with this picture. I'm most certainly loving it. It also gives kind of a dreamlike vibe (then again, a lot of your pictures are like that, which is a good thing). For some reason I kind of think "The Sandman" when I see this (which is a compliment, I guess, depending on your views of it).
Anyway-- Nice colors, and for some reason I am really liking the hair, with the way it kind of swirls like that.
Other than the hands looking a wee bit small, I think it's awesome.

Wheee! Water colors are always such a ball! I usually never use salt though- I liked using dryer sheets- it creates a webbing
I'm so happy you posted something! I was beggining to worry actually!
It really is a beauty too

Dryer sheets? o.o [retarded question warning!] You mean like the things that you put into the tumble dryer? ... I'd never have thought of that if so! XD *watercolour n00b*I don't really know many watercolour techniques at all, and find then quite hard to use, so using salt and picking out the rims at the edges of the marks was about the most complicated thing I could think of doing. I just decided that markers or acrylics wouldn't have got the right feeling to it. ^_^
And that is so sweet! Heheh, thank-you!

Oh, psh. Es no problem! I never use water color either but last year and a little of this year we touched on it in my Summer Arts Acadamy class. Anyway, nice way to break your dry spell- I wouldn't mind seeing something a little more detail-i-n355 though! I miss your stuff and now you need a few brilliant blasts of inspiration!

I love the spatter. And his nose. God, his nose. <3
All I could say as far as critique would be that his waist is awfully narrow, for a boy.
... a very pretty boy. Oh yes.
