Description
Here is the finished product. My scanner is not very good so I took a picture of it. It might be a little fuzzy but I will put another picture of it farther away in my scraps. I hope you like it.A shy Darren Shan from Cirque du freak.

VERY nice!!
And I love how you shade...
I'm very bad at it, which is why a lot of my art is plain...
...which is why I don't get many comments...T^T
Anyway, this is very cute!!
Is it from the first book (before Darren was blooded)?
Just curious...

Thank you.
Shading is the only time I switch off from mechanical pencil. I use a soft lead pencil. My fingers are absolutely filthy after.
I am sure you are not that bad at shading. Mine does not always come out right. And, contrary to popular belief, I am not very popular either. =]
I just sort of did it up without putting much thought into it. Just felt like drawing Darren at any phase during his life. =]

You're very welcome.
My fingers are the same way...
I am MOST sure that you have way more views than I do. x3
I see...
Well, Darren IS pretty shy most of the time.

Views do not mean anything to me. I would rather people comment on my art and tell me what they think than just have them look at it.
Pretty dumb too, I have to say.

I agree!
That's why I do my best to comment on things, because I'd like others to return the favour.

(sorry for so many comments...) But this is SO good!!! I lurv it!! Usually I don't like Darren.. Not after what he did to lead to the trap which lead to Murlough and some very not nice stuff.

It is alright. I like the comments. Expecially ones like yours that have more than "this is good". Well thank you. I was quite proud of it. I know. He was so mean to the fantastic Mr. Murlough. T~T

HE IS!!!! I love seeing books come to art...It lets you see how others think about how the characters look!
I'm EAGER about the movie... It's of the first three books...-sniff- the ending may be brutal to me...

ShinyShine13 In reply to Thorntheporcupine [2008-09-10 21:15:38 +0000 UTC]
Indeed it does. I love seeing other perspectives on characters. Mr. Crepsley is to die for in the manga. x_x
As am I! Everyone thinks it is going to be horrible but I think it will be fine. I know. Four movies. Three books per movie. I know T~T

This is probably one of my favorite of your drawings! You have a small habit of drawing a second eyebrow but other than that it's perfect.
It looks more sad and guarded then Shy but I still very much like the tone of it. You also did a great job on his features.

ShinyShine13 In reply to SwordoftheVampiress [2008-02-22 22:58:00 +0000 UTC]
This is one of my favorites as well. That other little line is supposed to be the edge of the eye socket rught under the eyebrow. It is just something that I accent. I do not know why.
