Ooh. You finally got to draw your Night Elf male.

The background is very well-done. Those Nelf ruins seem to be everywhere!

You really outdid yourself on this one. Your art style is very distinct, and I absolutely love it. Great, great work. I think I might have to commission you for a piece now...

Thanks a lot! I get really insecure with my art style sometimes (okay, many times), but I gain my confidence back when people say they like it

I look forward to drawing for you if you ever decide to go on with it ^^

I don't know how you could possibly get insecure about your art! Your coloring is so lush and you have a great attention to detail, and I'm totally jealous.

Aw, haha thanks. I'm just the type who just never stops finding flaws in her work, I guess! I usually hate my work six months after it's made because I see everything that's wrong with it!

ArtBySabinaE In reply to yapi [2010-10-26 05:19:58 +0000 UTC]

I'm the same way, trust me! The artist is their own worst critic. But I love your art and it's definitely something I want to aspire to.

Aw thanks for the support I think the only way to grow as an artist is to constantly crit yourself!

BTW, I checked out your profile and saw that you are hoping to get into the advertising industry. I used to be an art director in a big advertising firm myself. It's stressful, but it does have its fun moments (and delicious male models, hahahaha). Good luck!

ArtBySabinaE In reply to yapi [2010-10-27 00:54:09 +0000 UTC]

Haha, yes, thank you! I have a bachelor's degree in Mass Communications and I have currently been applying to a lot of ad agencies in the area. I finished an internship at one recently so I'm hoping to get the real job now. Hopefully it'll only be a matter of time. How cool that you used to be an art director!! I'm curious; did you find a better opportunity or do you still work at an agency? I think it's so cool that you worked at an advertising firm!

yapi In reply to ArtBySabinaE [2010-10-28 04:34:22 +0000 UTC]

Not that I found a better opportunity, but there were certain things that happened back then that made me a bit emotionally unstable mixed with the slow realization that advertising was not where I really wanted to be. It's great money, and the people you work with are hella fun, but I didn't feel like it was my place artistically. So I resigned and moved to China to become an art teacher for an American School while I figured things out.

And now, 3 years later, I still haven't figured out where to put myself. But still getting by! Hahaha!
