Artist's Comments

EDIT: Sorry I deleted the first version I had to fix the hair, it didn't look good with the eye poking out, see the headshot to see what I'm talking about. [link]

This is a pic I did for a contest over at gaia (Bloodlust)
[link]
The guy is based on the charachter description for Aldrich, a vampire.
He belongs to
I have permission to sell this pic as a print from the contest host. (mango-boo)

Clothes, weapons, and so on are designed by me.

Any cc on proportions are welcome, I am currently practicing on that.

o.o Wow, this is fan-freaking-tastic!

The textures are rather tangible, they stand out, and I love how he's half in shadow...the hair I am a huge fan of [white/silver hair = :love: ] GREAT work on the background, everything looks so intricate and mysterious, it's absolutely awesome. Nice attention to detail, as well- definitely a fave!

Amazing details and colors o.0

I'm in love with the whole thing :heart:

Not to burst your bubble but... you're in mine.
:iconchibi-cheeks:
OMFG!!! This is unbe-fuckin'-leavable. I want those lanterns and that awesome sword. The swirling fog (is it?) is an absolutely incredible effect and the character himself is just gorgeous. *wants to stroke the hair*

The bridge of his nose seems a little broad though.

Your ideas intrigue me and I'd like to subscribe to your news letter.
:iconchristmas-chan:
Thank you :hug:
*lol* the nose, I made it too skinny on the previous charachter so I tried to add more on this one, guess it was too much (^_^);
:iconeuclidstriangle:
You've only gotten 3 comments (without counting your reply) on this thing???! The monstrosity of it all! *dramatically swoons*

Ok, ok. Really, though. This is a good piece! Not entirely sure what proportional issues you're wondering about. The sword, the lanterns, his facial expression... They're all very nice. You might have been able to add a touch of red as a slight reflection off the curtain, as well as some yellow from the laners, but this is good without them as well. :D ((Sorry for the long post...)
:iconchristmas-chan:
Yeah, red, a nice idea! I actually did add yellow from the lanterns, but damn, I must have hidden the layer and deleted it along with all those others T_T
I was worried about the arm, I fixed it a million times, too long? too short ? uhh... my brain hurts...

Thank you so much for your comment. :hug:
:iconchristmas-chan:
hey I just saw your gaia comment!
What's up with the tsk tsk, I'm not allowed to post both here and on gaia? T_T No one comments here anyway + I was whoring out for my art auction *guilty*
It worked though it got ab'd >.< Whoring always works I tell you.
+ I got some good cc, ppl are better at criticising on gaia, deviants are too polite.
:iconeuclidstriangle:
No, no. Not that. It's just that it's such a nice piece of work that it's a shame very few people have stopped by long enough to leave a comment. I think it's a shame people don't comment over here on DA.

Oh, and about the arm: For the style that this seems to be in, I wouldn't worry about it. I mean, look at Tsubasa and Hellsing. :XD: No, the arm's fine. :D
:icontheharlequinsmask:
This is good, the use of colour is just right, and it's put together very well. A nice mood of sinister subtlety here. Well done.
