Holy crap, I finally have artwork to submit. O_O It's only been forever. Ha ha! Anyway I actually wasn't going to do as much with this drawing as I did... but it just kept growing. Originally it was just Zelda posing with her sword, but then idea after idea kept coming and well here we are. I have never attempted a nouveau drawing before... so I have to admit I wasn't really sure where to start, but I came up with a design and stuck with it. I think I might even do one for Link and Ganon as well, that might be fun!]]>Female Violin by anngelikurn:uuid:5eaf1a0d-6a53-3281-a41c-3bc8c1dce73f2013-03-12T02:04:42-07:00One of my most in depth drawings where I tried to incorporate a background instead of just a plain white or black background. 18"x24" pencil drawing
Sorry for the grainy picture I took it with my phone which is not a very good camera.]]>Air: Aang by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:074cef7b-de29-6c2b-bb92-d9e04ea76e7c2012-08-19T16:07:37-07:00Series: Avatar the Last Airbender
Character: Aang
Medium: Pencil, paper, photoshop
Time Taken: 6-8 hours
Oh look, another drawing!! I have to admit I am surprised it took me this long to submit some Avatar fanart... It's one of my favorite shows! So I decides I would start by following the Avatar cycle. Expect to see a Water: Katara next!
I actually had a difficult time coming up with a pose for Aang. I guess Air isn't my element. I really wanted a swirling motion to illustrate the Airbending style. I finally settled on on this post though. I also wanted to experiment with color a bit on this one. I chose a blue background and I thought it might be neat to have orange and yellow near the base of the tornado, as if Aang were moving so fast he was a blur.
Enjoy!]]>Shadows of the Temple by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:2ffaaf5e-7b13-1693-97ba-f25a1b8e3d142012-08-05T14:42:17-07:00Holy crap! Is this a drawing?? Why yes it is!
Series: Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
Character: Link, Navi, & some Wolfos.
This piece belongs with the other two Zelda pieces I added forever ago. Now I have done one of each of the three tunics! Yays! Now what will I do. :P
Actually, this piece was an experiment for me. I wanted to try and make a picture that was done fast (well faster than I usually color) but still have the amount of quality I require from myself. I was faster for sure, and I am very pleased with the overall result. I do feel though that with practice I can do much better and be much faster.
So hopefully this will be the first of many new drawings to come. I hope you enjoy.]]>Hana Pestle by anngelikurn:uuid:8bd9169b-9056-7cda-5bc6-ad6bcb8090ea2012-05-02T18:38:29-07:004H-8B pencil
Hana Pestle, an amazing singer and very nice person I might add.
Do keep in mind though that the quality and detail of the drawing is sometimes lost in the transfer to the computer.
None of my drawings have any charcoal or carbon. Strictly graphite pencils.]]>Hand_Drawn_Gollum by anngelikurn:uuid:23842144-fbcb-21be-f788-14c4cc741f4f2012-05-01T19:53:27-07:00Pencil portrait of Gollum from Lord of the Rings using a series of graphite pencils. 4H-9B and eraser.

Characters: Link & Lizalfos
Used: Pen & Paper, and Photoshop CS3
Time Taken: 20 - 30hours (I blame the lava....)
Okay so I decided I wanted to do a set of three pictures, with the color themed after Link's other tunics. Obviously, this is the red one. :P I decided I wanted to have Link fighting a lizalfos with a lava fall in the background. Big mistake there, the lava probably took more time than anything else on the picture. It's good experience though right?
I tried a few new techniques on the lizalfos' skin and I was pretty pleased with the result. I will have to remember it if I ever draw more of them. I also noticed that there are very few references for lizalfos, so I changed the design slightly. I think he actually came out looking pretty scary!]]>Waiting for You by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:a2c7225b-6082-a58c-76c7-aaa37b6dea132011-02-28T16:53:32-08:00From: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Characters: Link & Shadow Link

Time Taken: 15 - 20 hours
Yay another weekly challenge out on time. This one was a lot of fun for me, I found myself having a tough time pulling away from it. Shadow Link is one of my favorite bosses, too bad the poor guy is stuck in the most dreadful dungeons in the entire game. :P
I actually had the idea for this picture a few years ago but I never drew it because I was pretty uncomfortable with drawing perspective. I still am a little nervous about making it accurate, but I am better than I used to be. I also feel like you don't improve if you don't challenge yourself.
I did a lot of research on water texture and actually just ended up drawing my own. It was helpful to have them as a reference though.]]>Ordon Link by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:3374330b-106c-3767-8678-95d1fb5bdd612011-02-23T22:28:43-08:00From: Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Characters: Ordon Link and his baby Ordon goat friend. :P
Used: Pen & Paper, and Photoshop CS3
Time Taken: 10 hours
Ah ha! I am getting faster! This picture was commissioned/requested by a good friend of mine. And he better like it. :P Just teasing.
So there was a bit of a discussion on this picture as to how the baby goat should look. It was difficult to decide if the goat should have horns that connected or horns at all. Eventually we decided that the horns would be connected, just smaller than the adult.
The background was actually pretty fun and I did more on it than I originally planned. I turned on Twilight Princess and used a nice spot on the game for a reference.]]>Find Your Way by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:0591fc2d-50a9-634e-047c-dd17000826302011-02-16T22:59:26-08:00From: Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess/Super Smash Bros Brawl
Characters: Sheik
Used: Pen & Paper, and Photoshop CS3
Time Taken: 20 - 30hours
Well here is the picture for this week. It actually took me a lot longer than I had planned on, mainly because Sheik's outfit is very complicated. The background didn't take nearly as long as i thought it would. I tried some new techniques using different brushes for the stone. It seemed to save a little bit of time and still looks pretty good.
I was very sad to see that Sheik did not make an appearance in Twilight Princess, which is too bad too, I could so see Sheik leaping from the towers of Hyrule Castle, ready to kick some butt! I went back and forth on whether or not the squares should be in the picture. It is the Twilight Relm, but the squares stuck out too much the way I originally had them, so I blended them into the background a little more and it seemed to work much better.]]>Hyrule's Legend by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:f5f08849-ff73-7b11-da4b-d2ce5cfb255b2011-02-08T01:35:55-08:00From: Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

I actually drew this picture years ago when I was in a digital art class in college. I found it a few days ago and thought it looked pretty good for an older drawing and decided to color it. I also decided that I was going to give myself a weekly challenge to draw and color at least one thing a week, so here is the start of that challenge. :P
One of the reasons I am trying to challenge myself is most of my digital drawings take too long. I am trying to learn how to color faster. I still do all the textures myself and I need to find more efficient ways of creating the same effect. With this picture I didn't try any new techniques than any of my other digital drawings, but hopefully now that I have started this challenge, I will come up with new techniques.]]>Lily's Grove by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:4aefd180-5b70-1f23-dd0d-638918e6a9cc2010-11-09T20:16:22-08:00Hey I am getting better! It didn't take me a year to finish this one. :P
So for starters, I am very pleased with this one. It's actually going to be for someone else, but I was so proud of the final piece I wanted to post it. Because this was for someone else, I really pushed my skills to the limits (and my computer too!!). I have been working on this for about a month now... I was actually about halfway finished with this and went back to work on it to find that the file had been corrupted, which meant a week's worth of work was lost. But I managed to make all that up in four days. Not bad huh? :P
As for inspiration... I guess you could say the person who this belongs to is the inspiration. There is also a little poem I wrote for the piece, but I doubt I will post it here, since no one reads these right?]]>King of Halloween II by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:ac4defd9-7f86-04dd-87e1-e07734caab752010-10-07T19:58:06-07:00Happy Halloween everyone!!! So I actually started this last year and never finished it. I am so bad sometimes.
This was my own original character and this is actually my second time drawing him. The old one is in my gallery somewhere, but it's been a while and I must say, I like the new one much better. :P I kept the design of the character for the most part, but just made a few changes to make him easier to color.
I spent a lot of time (probably too much) on some of the small details, which are sadly a little lost due to the smaller image size. But at least the spider web can still be seen. :P]]>Auron by sheylaurn:uuid:593ba978-17a8-750f-7ac6-b88f357fe9732010-09-21T18:57:45-07:00Auron!! =D
I spend a lot of time drawing this... but I´m very happy with the result,
hope you like it ^^]]>The Promised Pathway by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:bf1f2be7-f082-e96e-9a21-229e5d161c592010-08-11T19:23:23-07:00Anime: Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust
Characters: Meier Link and Charlotte
Okay so it's been a while since I submitted any art. Well I decided to break that cycle. :)
I have been working on this for the passed week now and I am so happy to finally have it finished.
I absolutely love the movie Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust (I am hoping the same director will make another) and I haven't done any artwork from the movie in years. I thought it would be nice to do the cute couple instead of D fan art. now I have to admit, Charlotte was really difficult to draw, but I am so pleased with the end result.
I am also really pleased with the background. I really love the way the stained glass came out. I tried a few new techniques and I think it all worked out really well. Hopefully the next time it won't take me so long. :P]]>Burning Memories by Psyconorikaurn:uuid:b48b6a9a-1204-3281-5346-e9ae3104a7592009-11-01T18:08:00-08:00Wahhh I love FMA so much. T_T The story is by far one of the best I've seen in any anime. I should do another Ed picture since he's my fav! I love Roy too, not so much in the beginning but as the series progressed I liked him more and more. He's prob my forth fav char in the series, with Ed, Hughes and Lust being the first three.
I spent about 15 hours in all on this piccy, pretty happy with how it came out actually. Wayyyy better than I was expecting and it obliterates my old Roy picture. But yea, anyways hope you all like it.]]>Code Geass by Psyconorikaurn:uuid:182f6124-8d6a-565a-9cf6-bd9587721d192009-10-19T17:18:24-07:00Did this about a year ago. I spent a really long time on this, I think altogether with the line art and everything it came to about 25 hours. CC's hair was ... difficult? Yea, I think difficult would be the word. XD The pizza delivery guy just showed up. That's why she's happy. XD Lelouch is thinking, "Hmmm should I give him a tip? Or...... not?" I think he's thinking "not". XD Hope you guys like it!]]>Zelda - Princess of Hyrule by Psyconorikaurn:uuid:287b3ad7-369f-62fc-713c-3f4d50b7c5f32009-10-03T17:38:11-07:00Done last year. This pic was inspired by smash bros, cause she's my char. Well actually Sheik is but yea. XD So I drew Zelda cause she's cool like that. Nah, she's not left-handed, she's just so badass she can shoot either way. I spent about 16 hours total on just the coloring. The outline was done by hand with ink.
I know her bow looks slightly different here, I just added a few things I thought would look cool.]]>Request for ~13-tailedfox by butterfly111585urn:uuid:20dafede-4701-99ab-6277-951d301ea6e12009-09-05T21:46:41-07:00~13-tailedfox's oc's Blackie and Kacey with Yoko and Shuichi.

Anyway, Happy New Years everyone!!!
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.
