soldadoporvida's Favorite Picturesurn:uuid:0cdd10f1-33b0-d207-35d9-0c9982b452e1Goddess of victory by tavishartsurn:uuid:7c2efe35-2564-b4db-a8f3-6bf1dbc9d5b12010-01-31T16:11:48-08:00I would have just called her “Nike” but after the damn shoe company everyone forgets that it's actually the name of a Greek mythological being (that's why they named their company that btw).
But as a small history lesson the Nike was a winged female being that was associated with victory in wars (which is why you see the circular temple behind her and the armor). I chose to remove the idea of the chariot for instead a bit of magic to give it a bit of interest (plus bikini).
She started off as just a simple drawing... in fact the drawing was just her originally. The rest was added in later in photoshop using a variety of tricks to try to make my style seem a bit more cell shaded. Oddly enough for trying to limit my color pallet this image ended up being very colorful. It's odd how that seems to happen.
Aside from her my fav part of the image is actually that stupid building in the background. It took several calculations in photoshop with a vanishing point and a throw away layer, lots of layer styles so that it would create outlines for me ect ect. Turned out pretty well I think.I am aware that it has several flaws as far as true Greek/Roman architecture goes (lord knows I studied it enough in college) but hey I figured I might be able to get away with rearranging and throwing a few bits out. XD I wonder how many actual architects are going to stare at it and start listing how many things I changed.]]>Trade w/ Gety by TsuNekoChanurn:uuid:8f4c0226-5e5a-5199-5194-9d3a2fbad2f02010-01-31T08:31:20-08:00Told you I didn't forget ;]
My half of a trade with Gety who wanted DMC's Dante. However, i must apologize to DMC fans becuase this is probably one of the worst representations of this character ^^;
i think there's like...4 different versions of Dante apparently and i didn't know which one to use xD. I've never drawn him before xP
hope i have some accuracy xP
sorry for the long wait Gety]]>Geisha of Liberty: NYAF Mascot Entry 2 by TsuNekoChanurn:uuid:1e753607-7ca4-24f6-0846-04f0f17ab9252009-04-29T18:33:00-07:00I had another idea at the last minute! xD
Our lady liberty is a lovely lady don't you think? Why not make her a lovely geisha as well? I was debating about whether or not to add the apple at the end of the fan. I think it was a necessary touch lol.
And yes....Skylines Again!

I was really running late on it so I kind of just rushed through it and cut a lot of corners and didn't bother with some things I might've normally.

Note: I had flipped the image horizontal... I usually do it in search for mistake, but I like the outcome.

drawing a picture. I felt like doing something different too. I haven't drawn anything anime-ish for awhile.
Everyone loves a bishonen, right? Surprisingly, I took my time with this. I hope that it shows in some way.
*Note: I realize that his right hand is a tad big for his wrist size. I can't win them all!

This is actually a late Christmas present for a friend... but I thought it might be nice to share it. :)
I think the most difficult part about this entire thing was the background. I had a hard time trying to figure out a good color for it. Bleh... I think it could use a little improvement but my computer will die if I work on it more. ^ ^ The coat was really fun though... I guess I like flowy fabric. >: D
I hope you all enjoy.

Kenshin's hand bugged the crap out of me! I spent 2 hours on it and still couldn't get it to look right. Hence the reason I've covered it with Tomoe's hair. Hehehe ^_^ His neck was also giving me problems, mostly because I couldn't get the shading to look right. I spent another 2 hours on that too...*grumbles* Oh well.

Unfortunately it was not picked to go in the book, which is due out in a couple of months. I spent about a month and a half drawing it, so hopefully that kinda shows. Of course it's Felicia and Demitry, and Demitry's living Spawn-like cape which never existed in the games, but I felt like drawing it that way anyway.
EDIT: Wow, awesome! Thanks for the feature guys, I really appreciate it and the kind words!]]>transition by jny016urn:uuid:d7e7a298-10bf-b7eb-b623-b00b438672b22009-08-07T08:01:37-07:00weeeee another submission done on 1/4 illustration board and faber castel colored pencils XD]]>love's a gamble by jny016urn:uuid:213d53b1-e027-be83-aa2b-9d492d6075162009-08-05T04:05:58-07:00-done on 1/4 illustration board

Zaraki is easily my favorite Bleach captain. I like his philosophy very much. Notice how shinigami spend most of their time fighting; and if you're going to do that, you better damn well like it, or it's going to be difficult. I also like how he's always calm and collected in battle.]]>Never Compromise by RenValentineurn:uuid:d66995f2-3563-8441-fa87-3e9d8287831b2009-03-09T12:58:33-07:00Even in the face of Armageddon.]]>Dawnstar by mondotoonurn:uuid:e9f00421-e24e-3072-0132-73f7c5d6bac32009-02-20T17:00:13-08:00One of my favorite legion members, mainly because she’s based on the American first native inhabitants.

The technique in this picture is more classical taking as a model the art of the great Curt Swan back in the 60’s and even though he never drew Dawnstar, I would have liked to see it.]]>Rooster 1 by pantslesshobourn:uuid:e1b8e4ac-b116-6b08-9186-09abe68c6e7c2008-08-20T15:47:42-07:00I painted this for grand-mama yo, it took about 3 hours and I think it's beautiful!]]>She-Hulk by zooniurn:uuid:9855af50-8a7e-927f-6f73-021de26170eb2006-03-22T11:20:15-08:00She-Hulk..]]>Red Dragon <3 by ManiacTHPurn:uuid:62c805ee-e6b9-552a-e984-f64c0ec765a92006-10-16T06:30:59-07:00Prismacolor pencils.

The Aztecs believed the gods created the universe here, and began construction on the magnificent temple complex around 100 BC. . . . Today many tourists frequent this amazing site but recently there have been many reports of tourists mysteriously vanishing, local authorities have had no luck in figuring out the strange goings on, so the matter had been turned over to The Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense.
Of course The Bureau just assumed that tourists were wandering off and getting lost in some of the Labrynthine tunnels at TeotihuacÃn, but just to be safe they sent Hellboy to check things out . . . . .
Medium: HB Pencil, #2Pencil
Artist's note: I figured since Hellboy is always off somewhere investigating some craziness in any part of the world, the Aliens in the Aztec pyramids would tie in nicely. . . . I also figured "who would be better to deal with the acid blood when he blasts them in the face with his piece than Hellboy?"]]>Dark side by DevilmayCry1urn:uuid:56025a44-f0c8-e4f2-68d2-d3e86a196cce2006-03-03T04:30:42-08:00Dark side<br />
