Description As a long timer reader of Gunnerkrigg Court comic, I wanted to present a fanart piece that the author, Tom Siddell, can personally enjoy and to demonstrate how inspiring and, ya know, unique story he shared with millions. I ain't counting and I don't think they are either.

From me to you guys, and also with all your advice from the rough draft, it wouldn't be so complete!

--Yay on the DD!Ā

PLEASE ASK FOR PERMISSION FOR USE

Ive been finding copies with my signature removed on various wallpaper websites, and this upsets me that there's folks out there that don't want to give artist their credit.

At the end I messed around with the hue, and it looks fantastic in fall colors ;_; I couldnt' do it though, I wanted it green so Carver would stand out instead of blend in.Ā

ElverynelCreations In reply to Viant-T [2013-10-14 14:11:12 +0000 UTC]

Oh I can immagine - but still do I find it really pretty in green, it looks totally enchanting and peaceful

I've been trying to find the time to create some fan art for Tom for the longest time now. I love his comic!
And you did a wonderful job on this. It's incredibly well done and looks great even as a stand-alone illustration.

Viant-T In reply to vesner [2013-10-13 21:11:53 +0000 UTC]

Omg if you did art for him he would double shit his pants.Ā 

And ty ty <3 I really wanted to go all out to have fun and also to mimic miyazaki's great backgrounds, nothing is left really untouched. I don't have the same flair though. xD

Is this what happens when an Ent gets bitten by a Warewolf?

Viant-T In reply to ShadowEngine [2013-10-13 21:09:55 +0000 UTC]

Thats a possibility. lol. The gunnerkrigg comic explains the wolf/treebody, but I looked up Ysengrin as a name and its a russian story of a wolf with no tail. I think.

PistachioInfernal In reply to ??? [2013-10-13 08:34:11 +0000 UTC]

Wow...so beautiful!

The fur and the grass look so touchable, and the eyes of the wolf are wonderful.

Viant-T In reply to PistachioInfernal [2013-10-13 22:42:31 +0000 UTC]

I like to handdraw my grass, but cause of this pic I think I'll do some grass studies :< flimsy lines look flimsy.

But yes Im very happy with the fur. Ty for noticing!

I know its been a while. xD Not sketching or doodling so much as just observing and studying stuff by eye alone. Still have to draw things to make sure I understand things or test or just practice though. This one was a great big chunk for looking at trees and bushes.Ā

Thanks! And not really thought out as much as taking time each day to scribble at one spot at a time while using butt tons of refs.

I wish I knew how to make paintings like this! I guess I just have to keep using tutorials and practice practice practice!

Viant-T In reply to Aumari [2013-10-13 00:26:36 +0000 UTC]

exactly that, practice practice practice. Oh and lots of long walks in the woods til you fall into hopelessness and realization that a map and flashlight are good things to bring.Ā

Remind yourself to paint what you enjoy, and challenge yourself at a whim. I'm still working to paint like them fancy renaissance paintings.Ā
