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!]]>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.]]>Beast of the Inferno by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:a25a4619-765d-589b-822c-b6900e79cb372011-03-13T21:09:33-07:00From: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
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

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

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

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]]>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]]>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.

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.

Held an art meme on my journal to do some quick sketches for the first ten commenters: the TDK-version Joker was one of the characters requested.
...Except I kind of got carried away: it ended up being not a quick sketch. A little speedy all the same: tablet-drawn/cged in one night.

This kind of happened when I bsed up a sky background, and kind of went from there, so this wasn't really planned. In a way, I think it helped: it turned out easier than the last attempt.

Just an illustration for the fic I finished ealier It's a bit rough since it's kind of unfinished.
Basically just drawing of one of the flashbacks from the fanfic: clash between Zelda's army (led by Sheik, wearing her old Sheikah clothes) and Ganondorf's army when she left to meet with Link in the Temple of Time.
It's kind of AU/Alternate Universe (since Sheik is a seperate person in it). The white outfit is my own design, as are some of the monsters in here.

Game: Zelda Twilight Princess
Character: Link
OKay well I have been working on this for three weeks now, so I am really happy to finally be able to post it.
First off I must say, that it is way more difficult to color in Photoshop than I originally thought. This is actually the second time I have tried to color this picture. I got about halfway through and realized that i didn't like the way his skin came out... So I redid everything.
I am really happy with this one though. Hm... the most difficult part by far was the hair and the chain mail. *laughs* I think I spent most of my time working with those, mainly because I decided to be stupid and draw each strand of hair. (That's a no no next time I color with this program)
Well anyway. Hope you all like it. ^ ^

From: Eragon
Well here is the last Eragon chapter I will post. I hope you have enjoyed them. I have... but at the same time I am really glad to be finished with this project... it seems like it has taken me a lifetime to complete them.
Spoiler!!
With how important this scene is in the book, there was no way i could not draw this chapter. So hooray! Durza dies and Eragon is horribly scarred. *laughs*
End Spoiler!
I actually had a lot of trouble with this scene... I was trying to find an angle where you would see the "action" and also the cut on Eragon's back. (Since it's important) I have to say though... I had a lot of fun working with the scar. I added a lot of purple around it to make the scratch look bruised. I hope that came over well.
Oh and I know in the book the Shade has black armor... I honestly tried to keep it as close as I could... but he looked so monotone... so I added more color to it. Don't kill me Eragon fans.
The background was also a bit of a pain... I wanted to make it blue again... but that looked horrible... so I made it orange and Durza disappeared... In the end... I added some purple and gray and well there you have it. I think it turned out alright. In all honesty... I don't really care much. I am just happy to be done.

Yay! One down... hm... three to go? Maybe it's two... I can't remember. It doesn't matter I am finished with another one. Yay!!
Spoilers:
This scene is not long after Eragon, Murtagh, and Saphira rescure Arya. They find out that she is wounded and Eragon attempts to heal her.
End spoilers:
*laughs* I really like the look on Murtagh's face... I didn't mean for it to come out this way, but he looks like he is thinking "You have no clue what you are doing, do you Eragon?" :P Maybe it's just me. Anyway... this one took me a bit longer to finish... I really wasn't sure what to do for the background this time. I was originally going to have a nice desert scene... but that idea died quickly after I finished the last one. (The colors would have been too similar so I decided to go with this idea.) I am happy I did. I think it came out nicely. :)
Well hope you all enjoy. :)

So I hope this fixed it. :)

From: Eragon
Yay! Another one finished. Just four more to go!
Oh first off I should probably mention this:
MAJOR SPOILER!!!!!
This scene for all who have read the book or seen the movie. This would be the death of Brom. I decided to change the title from "Death of a Rider" to "Sacrifice" I thought it would lessen the chances of someone who hadn't read the book to be spoiled.
End Spoilers!
I had a difficult time trying to figure out how to do the background for this one. In the book the setting was "somewhere" with an abundance of limestone, so I went and did some research on the rock and came up with nice limestone formations. Most of the photos had that bright orange tint so that's what I went with. That was probably the most difficult part of this piece.
Time Taken: 3 hours! Oh yeah!

From: Eragon
Well I am back in business. *laughs* Here's another chapter. This is just one of those chapters where not much is going on... Eragon is just getting his bum handed to him by Brom. *laughs* I think this is the last chapter than doesn't have a spoiler in it... So be careful if you plan on looking at the next pictures I post... They might spoil your innocent minds. :P
The most difficult part had to be those trees. I had a really difficult time getting them to be the right color... The mountains were a bit annoying as well. I think I redrew them a couple times. Hm... other than that... It wasn't too difficult. ^^;

Hooray! Another chapter finished! This one went by pretty quickly. I am guessing it's because the background is mostly black.
Anyway, the chapter is just some random one where Eragon is travelling with Brom and listening to him talk about the Dragon Riders. Nothing special... but I needed to find a way to get more Brom pictures. (Hee hee)

Well here is the next picture. This is actually the second chapter. *laughs* But whose paying attention right? This would be where Eragon is hunting in the forest and finds a weird blue stone... hm... wonder what that could be. *laughs*
This picture was fairly easy to do aside from the tree roots. I messed with the lighting a bit on Eragon's face and after about a half an hour, it looked close to how i wanted it to. (I still think he looks like a weird Nightcrawler. ) Ah well though.
Time Taken: About 4 and a half hours
Materials: Hand drawn with an HB pencil and colored with Corel Painter 8 (Does anyone really read this?)]]>Find A Way Out by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:c141499a-8995-aa65-9365-e6f7e32994ea2007-02-06T10:32:05-08:00Characters: Eragon, Arya, and Murtagh
From: Eragon
Yay! Moving right along.
Yay I finally finished the picture with Murtagh. I have to say... he's much easier to color then Eragon, it must be because of all the dark colors... (It's harder to see where I have messed them up) :P
For anyone who hasn't read the book please don't read unless you want to be spoiled.
This is the scene where Eragon and Murtagh rescue Arya... I thought about actually drawing the dungeon walls for this (make it look more prison-like) but...... I ran out of time. *laughs*
Enough of spoilers.
Time Taken: I think this one only took about 4 or 5 hours. Not really sure though.

From: Eragon
Yes once again uploading my homework. *laughs* I was able to complete this one this evening. Hooray! 10 more to go.
Anyway, I sort of took on the idea the movie had for Durza, I thought his costume was really cool. As for Arya... I thought that the movie version wasn't very good. Personally... I like my elves to have pointy ears... So yay!
As for the scene, well this is the opening chapter for those of you who don't know, where the Shade captures Arya (like the title) :p
The most difficult part of this had to be the fire. I must have spent most of my time working on those flames. I think it turned out nice though, so I guess it was worth it.
Materials: Drawn by hand with an HB pencil, and colored in Corel Painter 8.
Time taken: About 5 - 6 hours. I think I am getting faster. :P]]>The Lonely Rider by Seifer-samaurn:uuid:2a1bd1bf-7929-33a7-e1b1-a0589e03adc42007-02-03T13:34:31-08:00Character: Brom
From: Eragon
Well here is one of my chapter pictures. This would be the story of how Brom came to possess the sword Zar'roc. i don't really want to say too much more in case some of you can not read the book.
This one took slightly less time than the cover, mainly because I am a little more used to the program. However, it decided to crash on me at least three times and I had to start over after about an hours worth of work. Ah well... the wonderful thing about computers right? *laughs*
As for Brom, I liked the costume design they gave him for the movie. So as you can see it's based off of that.

Well I figured that since my homework is generally art I might post some of the things I am working on. The assignment was to pick a book and illustrate a cover and twelve chapter pictures. Well as many may have guessed my book is Eragon! And this is the cover I designed for it.
*laughs* This was drawn by hand, scanned and then colored in Corel Painter 8. I have never used this program before... so this was a whole new experience for me. (That and I am NOT a painter... As I am sure anyone who has any experience with painting will see). This picture has taken me about eight hours to complete... mainly because the first three hours were focused on messing up (learning the program).
Well I hope you all like it.]]>The Wandering Bird: Starship Operators by lisetdomurn:uuid:3aac456b-cb19-faaf-0b03-fbd87f77a7c02006-12-14T22:17:32-08:00Oh, there isn't a Starship Operators category. Is it ok if I post it in original? Anyway, this art is original - the character isn't.
I just learned how to do vector art in Photoshop from my friend (thanks Nhea!). I tried it out on this pic. Had fun doing it. And it''s wallpaper sized. Enjoy.]]>Through Pandemonium by lisetdomurn:uuid:b462bd5d-1d8e-863c-b881-dcc0369245302006-12-08T00:38:55-08:00Again, as with Youko's pic, the background here took ages.
Ballpens and a bit of watercolor.]]>Carnivorous Garden by lisetdomurn:uuid:251aa9f7-7c52-b031-20c4-4efceaf1f7462006-12-08T00:35:12-08:00The background took ages.

But right now, this will have to do. Maybe a few more years from now, I'll draw another and see if that will be better.
Done using blue and red ballpoint pens, colored pencils and watercolor.]]>X/1999: Broken Earth by lisetdomurn:uuid:41ea86a9-5a3c-0b08-0d6a-302deca2357b2006-11-16T20:57:07-08:00I don't know why I am drawing characters from animes I haven't seen yet lately. I forgot this guy's name - just know he's the main character in X/1999 (weird title). I only saw the opening theme on Youtube and I heard that CLAMP created it. (I really like CLAMP anime!) Anyways enjoy!]]>
