The Fallen
Life isn’t always funny. If from nowhere else I remember that from Megatokyo.
I had a solemn feeling when I started the concept for this picture. I think it followed through well.
I think this picture is good by my standards. Took me quite a while too (more than one sitting).

Yay for timestamp editing. I uploaded this on the 27th, but told it to wait untill the 30th to post to let Emiko get some more light. 🙂
P.S. I almost forgot! Mark Crilley has really good videos on youtube. I’ve watched them all. I watched a bunch after doing the major outlines for this picture. His working style has influenced how I shade and do hair and stuff. And I feel that I’ve improved a lot since watching how he works.
He makes really nice videos. He doesn’t impose anything on the viewer, just draws and makes some points on tricks he’s learned from drawing for so long. Give it a whirl next time you have some spare time.
I still think the arm over his chest looks a little weird, but overall not bad. I like the cross hatching on the clothing, nice job 😀
Thanks! 🙂
I wanted to try cross-hatching since I’ve never really done it before. It gives an interesting texture to the art that I think could be used really effectively if I knew how to use it. -_-; So I tried it out.
Glad you like it.
better, but that stick of her leg look weird, and her left arm (from my perspective) is covered up a bit to much to look normal from the angle shes on i think, maybe some shading on the oppisite side would balance it out. The rest is good apart form the ground needs more detail, and the wings look weird coz ones out and ones harldy to be seen.
sigh, I like being a critic wayyyy to much
You like it? You’re not very good at it. :O
That is not a leg you’re looking at. Its a shoe. Thats what the bottom of a shoe looks like (I checked). 😉
The picuture is not about the ground. I could take it out entirely and the picture would still be whole. Don’t be daft.
I can’t help that the wings fell in such a way. Its just how he landed (and the girl didn’t bother to straighten them up).
And by left arm, do you mean /her/ left arm or the one on her left from us?
on HER, the arm on the left side (our perspective)
Umm, the pic is kinda… not there?
Wow saph, you’re quick. That pic was down for only like….10 mins at the most. 😀 Its back now.
@Llama: so the one that is partially covered by her chest (thats the one left from our perspective)?
Just happened to log on at the right time 😀
The arm seems fine, but maybe the amount of twist in the wrist looks kinda weird to me.
Her wrist? i cant even see a wrist….. and thats no problem for me
As in her hand looks like its on a really weird angle to her forearm. Like its twisting past 180 degrees.
That’s you looking at it wrong. The picture itself is fine (bear in mind that that is a thumb you are looking at).
Sure. I’m doing a pic of Ferras and the dimensions are killing me, hopefully I can bring a finished version to your place tonight.
So we can see part of her palms right? because i think thats fine
Yeah. Part of her palms and part of her thumbs. And another line that’s not really supposed to be on a hand, its like the opposite to the line that marks the joint of a thumb, but for the pinky.
Its a high-definition wrinkle 😀
lol, post record ftw!
is it? I woulda thought his other ones would have more.
Um…Yeah… All the art I have recently is crap. So bear with the long lived post. 😉
We should get Llama to draw something!!
hahah!
no
>.>
Oh come on….
You want stick figures? then youll get stick figures
Lol. Ganbatte.
I have a pic in the works…and it looks good so far. I just don’t want to ruin it by drawing at bad times…
phail
Hi Hiro can you please drop me you IM id i want to talk to you.
Hey andrei.
Email sent.
I really like this drawing 🙂
but this somehow reminds me of Romeo & Juliet… except that the characters are swapped (in case you don’t know what i mean, the guy on the ground is Juliet and the girl is Romeo XD)
btw, is her head bleeding??
No…Shes crying. Thats a tear. xD The lines were a bit close together so it looks dark like blood. >.<
And um, sure lol. Didn’t think of Romeo and Juliet before…
