Hi Everybody!
I've been sooo busy with a commission, but in the process I've finally completed my Winged Bishie dude. I've worked on him like crazy and I'm still evolving. Check out his process from sketch to finished art.
I kind of got out of hand with his gladiator look. I took another look at
other quality adotables and found them more clothed than this and
in better perspective. Yeah, I flunked on perspective and costuming.
Now I started thinking harder working toward a good-looking adoptable.
I said, "Why not give him red hair like Ichigo in Bleach. Oh, guys always
look good in a uniform, right? Here's my 2nd attempt.
I'm sweating now. Hoping the perspective is working out okay, including
his wings. So I venture into SAI with the hopes of a perfectly drawn
winged bishie (HAH!)
Don't think I got big headed cuz I'm still wondering how to make
him pop out without his chest showing. More military decorations!
That's it! Hmmm...
Hang in there with me cuz I thought spiked anime red hair and red eyes were
the rage! I thought, give him MORE hair spikes!!!
BUT WAIT!!! What's this? I shook my head and said, "Not good enough."
Okay, not to put you through anymore torture. I changed his facial expression.
Gave him a different color of eyes. Added shading, highlights, shine. His wings looked
off so I corrected them (I hope). And gave him...MORE MILITARY DECORATIONS!!!
Nuff with that. What do ya think? Did all my scrutiny pay off?
HERE'S THE FINAL PRODUCT:
Howl's Moving Castle
