Description
Um, yes. = D I live. NaNo's over, which means I've been feeling this mild urge to draw something, sort of like how you can have a mild itch at the tip of your nose that doesn't really bother you unduly and you're pretty sure you could live quite happily without scratching it, but until you do it'll be there and it'll be distracting.So have some Faeries' Ruin fanart. On me.
I love this plot so much, and Hanso is all levels of awesome. <3 Plus, the comic artwork is all inspirey and I wanted to take a stab at imitating some of the colouring style. My background is kind of fail, though. You can tell I was just scribbling when it came to the purple stuff.
...Hum. I don't really feel like talking about art right now. I'm still in a writing kick thanks to the lingering task of finishing my NaNo (by the way, you can probably count on some pictures of some new characters soon. xD; Because I have a lot; I'm just too lazy to colour them).
So, um, right. Back to NaNo and art requests. >.> Enjoy?

Wonderful shading on his hair. How did you do that?

Thanks! = D Hmm... other than by a lot of bluffing? Mostly, I cell-shaded normally, but I put the pinkish highlights on a new layer and used a large soft eraser to make them fade as they went forward and down. Added a white streak for the anime-esque shininess, and that was about it. ^^ It was oddly straightforward, actually.

Me too! 8D I have a thing for thief heroes, and Neopets does them so well. It doesn't help that he's adorable. xD

...Well, okay, true enough, this isn't exactly a fail by my standards, since I generally don't draw backgrounds at all. I did, however, get rather lazy on this one and I probably could have made it better if I had taken more time. xD
But I really appreciate it! Thank you so much!

This is...pretty dang epic. o_o Lovely colors, gorgeous shading, and a great air of grim determination. (The rest of Neopia was just gawking at that Xandra crash panel in horror, and here we missed Hanso getting his heroic shot!)
Anyway, nice work! I've always admired your art style. Please keep up the great work! ^^

... *speechless* Um. Er. Thank you very much! 8D; I'm honoured you liked it enough to leave such a thoughtful comment; I really am. Thank you. ^^
And, er, yes! That's it exactly! The reason there's no scene even vaguely resembling this in the comic is because we were looking the wrong way! Of course! I completely and totally meant to do that! = D

Awesomesauce! I love this plot hardcore as well. Not gonna lie, that panel where Xandra is standing there and Faerieland is crashing to the ground totally inspired me to finish my NaNo XD I wrote 12k in two days because of that damn panel. So of course this is win. This plot is surprisingly epic, way more epic than I thought it would be, and 1000000x more better than most of the recent plots. So, you win.

tamia-shade In reply to uberlutra [2010-12-14 01:18:29 +0000 UTC]
Yay winning! ^___^;
And I completely understand the NaNo inspiration. xD I kind of stopped keeping up with the plot steps about halfway through the month, but I couldn't tear myself away from the comic and ridiculous plot speculations. It gave me so many strange, wonderful ideas.
...12K in two days is pretty epic. xD I wrote 14K in the last two days, but, er... I'm not entirely sure about 7K of that even counted as writing.

Possibly one of the prettiest explosions I have ever seen.
I've always liked your use of weird-coloured light falling onto your characters, like the pink light here.

Not that there's such thing as a not pretty explosion, of course. = D
Thank you! I do that a lot, yeah. xD; Could just be because I like shiny things, but I'm very glad you like it.

(And I totally would have, except that would have taken twice as long. xD; Plus, I already have a decidedly soppy sketch of some unrelated characters that I want to colour and submit soon, so I think I might slow down on the 'ship-work for a while.)

If only it could be like that all the time. The handful of plots before this one weren't so great. XD;;;
But oh well. I survived those, and I'm really having fun with this one. So I guess that's what matters.
