8) Figure it was time enough. I'll just post things as I make them, so next update might be awhile. I have a dA account, but I just cleared it, so there's not much there! xD Newest: <img src="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk450/Sunvera/Acacia.png"; alt="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk450/Sunvera/Acacia.png"; class="bb-image" /> GingerKitty's fursona Acacia. Really big, but this is the size it looks best.

OHHMYYGOSH. Let me know if you ever open a commission... Your art is amazing & beatiful. <33

Faeriegirl83 · April 2010

Awwww, thank you. I probably will open them up after I finish Nickleback_luver's contest entry.

I'll put you first on the list.

//edit. Speaking of which, would anyone like me to put up the WIPs of the entry I'm working on? Like the lineart, then flats, shading, ect?

SirPopcorn · April 2010

I'd loved to see how you work bit by bit. Do eeet

Faeriegirl83 · April 2010

Alrighty then! I'll update as I go. I'm currently on Ulquiorra's lineart: <img src="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk450/Sunvera/Ulquiorra.png"; alt="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk450/Sunvera/Ulquiorra.png"; class="bb-image" /> This is exactly 25% the full size. He's looking down at Yoruichi, who is in cat form.

Oh, and please, nobody steal. XD I don't wanna reupload everything with my watermark.

Faeriegirl83 · April 2010

. . . I don't know why I'm adding this, but this was my rough design for my fursona. She was made in September of 2009. XD Go <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk450/Sunvera/VeraDragon3.png"; target="_blank" class="bb-url">here</a> to see design. Please don't steal this either, nor any of the designs. It took a painstakingly long time to form the concept.

SirPopcorn · April 2010

How do you get your lines so.. clean? My lines always go wonky $:\$ Btw your fursona looks awesome o.o I hope we get to see the final product!

Faeriegirl83 · April 2010

Look close enough, and my lines are retarded. XD Its just that I work with the lineart so BIG, that when I shrink it down the lines are clean. Also, for almost every stroke I use an eraser to taper/fix it. Trust me, I'm not that naturally good.

Lining is definitely the worst part about the art. It takes forever, and ever, and ever and ever and ever . . . Gah. I don't know about finishing her. I'm kinda stumped about the left hind leg, as you can see. XDDD

Faeriegirl83 · April 2010

Allright, for those curious about the workspace, go <a href="http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/2338/screencapm.png"; target="_blank" class="bb-url">here.</a> I'm not gonna post it here because its huge. XD This screenie shows: 1. My layers. I actually had more when I did the lineart, since I like to make a new layer for individual pieces in case I mess up, but I merged them all down at the end. AND I DELETED THE EYES. OMG I WAS MAD, those took me forever. So I made a duplicate in case I did it again. XD 2. My retarded lines at 200%. Not all of them are perfect. XD This particular clump is rather bad. 3. I work on Adobe Photoshop Elements, which is a freebie if you get the Bamboo Fun tablet. See? We don't always need uber expensive stuff. I didn't cut anything out. Oh, my desktop background is of Yosemite's Half Dome, you can see a strip of it at the bottom. XDD

Thanks. ^^ It's so lovely. :0

Flats on Ulquiorra: <img src="http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/8050/yoruichi.png"; alt="http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/8050/yoruichi.png"; class="bb-image" /> *edit* Started shading: <img src="http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/6383/ulquiorrab.png"; alt="http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/6383/ulquiorrab.png"; class="bb-image" />

RoyalRaccoon · April 2010

Very nice~. It's been years since I did shading like that. I sucked at making it look as good as yours. I'm loving the shading of the paws. Random curiosity....What version of PSE are you using? I have 2.5, but I believe Adobe is way beyond that now. Shows how long ago I bought my tablet. lol. I hope you post more art!

ImportsandLines · April 2010

Really your using only 2.5 I have 7

Faeriegirl83 · April 2010

Thankkies!

I love the paws, they're now my favourite to shade. 8D I use Photoshop Elements 6.0. Nothing fancy, it just came with my Bamboo fun tablet, but I love it.

kitty_kat · April 2010

Lol If I could ever talk you into doing a art piece for me later on that would be awsome, so if you ever open up PM me. Your art is extremly amazing I especially am fond of the very first one. I got a tablet for christmas and havnt used it a whole lot, im still trying to learn how to use it... but doesnt help that i cant draw to save my life anyways. Anyways I love ypur art

ChibiWerewolf · April 2010

I like the way you shade, and your paws.

Quite honestly, those are really the only two things I really like about my style. XD But an artist is her own worst critic! Thanks everybody, you guys make me really inspired to learn more and draw better. I'm still quite unrefined with many things. Though a few of VP's best are helping me out in that aspect, and I appreciate that. ^^

Noo, no no no no. Your style is very fantastic, you do cute faces as well. I like the way you draw noses. Noses are difficult to draw. xDD

While working on a new piece, I was informed of some theories that I trace my art. I was advised to record my process with a free screen recorder, to verify that I didn't. So I downloaded a program and took some screenies of this new piece! But CamStudio, let me tell you, starts off like the most retarded recorder in the world. I didn't realize for a long time that it had stopped recording completely, and then more various technical difficulties arose. :roll: I only got around ten minutes of sketching, which I will speed up and upload sometime soon. In the mean time: My first sketch, getting basic form down. I've never fully concentrated on sport breeds like this before, and the anatomy was new to me. <img src="http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/5885/vizscreenie.png"; alt="http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/5885/vizscreenie.png"; class="bb-image" /> Then I refined it, using Vizsla refs to correct anatomical mistakes. <img src="http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/6462/dreamyscreencap4.png"; alt="http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/6462/dreamyscreencap4.png"; class="bb-image" /> //edit Dreamy redlined it for me, and I'm going to fix the anatomy mistakes so far. So no other redline is needed at the moment. C:

Faeriegirl83 · April 2010

I'm really excited, I'm almost done with Nickelback_luver's contest entry. Literally all I need to do is add Ulquiorra's eye marks and I'm done. But because I'm impatient, I'm putting up just the Yoruichi part of the drawing. XD <img src="http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/9668/yoruichicat.png"; alt="http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/9668/yoruichicat.png"; class="bb-image" /> I loved drawing her because it was so quick and easy! Since she's going to be small I didn't need to put in a lot of detail. No crits for this one, please. ^^ She's kinda just a blob.

Zagari Wolf · April 2010

You are so amazing! I really love the cat that was just posted.

Howdy, Stranger!
