Description Character belongs to ~NibbleKat , drawn for faeriexchange [link]

The scanner didn't pick up the pale pink well. Actually, not at all. *sighs*
Oh, well, over all I'm quite happy with it

markers and a bit of colourpencil

Hurhurhur.

I'm going to drop this comment on LJ, too, so I hope you don't mind the repeat... (though I'll say this... I don't see what not-sleeping really means by needing more contrast. Personally, I think it's done pretty well, especially since there's not any evidence that Brody's sitting in a place with dramatic lighting.)

I really, really like it. I like the sly expression on his face. I like the colors, even if you do say that they've been washed out by the scanner. Don't you just hate scanners? Grrr! I love your take on his hair, too... it's less of a solid lump like -I- normally do. It's great. Thank you SO VERY much! It was well, well worth the wait. I'm grinning!!

I'm glad you like it

Drawing this was a bit of a challenge, because... how can I explain... Often the reference pictures are drawn in some anime-inspired style, or just generally far from mine, so it's natural that when I draw the character they look quite a bit different, but your style is relatively similar to mine. So instead of being able to pull the "just a different style"-card I had constantly the feeling my version is off somehow
But anyway (or maybe because of that) I enjoyed drawing this a lot, once I got working on it

You have a very interesting style I like the clean lines, but I think you could use a bit more contrast in your colours.
Is it too bad if i say that is one smoking hot fairie?

*heh* Thanks. I guess with the pale skin some darker background would have looked better. eh.

Do have a look at ~NibbleKat 's gallery, there's more
