The fictional world in my head.

Zela Bladedancer in colour

Glitter, glitter, little sword

Glitter, glitter, little sword

And now Zela in colour. Original here. The colour really brings out the proportional deficiencies, I think, but I also think the cloth at her waist looks really good for some reason. I had some trouble with layers and the multiply function… that’s why there are some white lines and some dark lines, instead of it all being just smooth. I guess I like the shiny sword a lot, though the hilt ought to be more detailed… I guess there’s only so much you can cram into those pixels. Also the hair is okay.

There’s so much I want to do right now! Photoshop painting, Ceniro movie, write Fire Emblem 7… I re-read as much of my story as is on here last night and I felt… I have up to Chapter 10 or so written, so why not put it up? Because it needs work, that’s why. Well, I’m going to work on Photoshop, I think.

…Elf Montage

Waaaah... too many people! Elves from all over! ...and me.

Waaaah… too many people! Elves from all over! …and me.

One… last attempt to do Esgalwen, and it failed worse than ever. Then I drew the figures on the left, inspired by the song the lady sings in the bar on Outo World in Tsubasa… I still can’t remember her name anymore. Anyway, the bit where she stops and the girls’ choir starts is the bit that inspired me to imagine Flairé swinging me around in the air. Except I forgot my glasses again and he’s about a foot too tall. Then… I think I drew the one of Flairé with a little rock whizzing past his face (thrown by me ^_^7) and his shirt says “I LIKE PICKLES”. Squee! I think I drew Link next, and then Rana, and she turned out better than he did, and then I finished off with Legolas, who didn’t turn out too well, and Zela, looking especially grumpy.

Flairé

As I am pleased to meet you.

Flairéeeee!! A full length portrait and a little one of him bowing. I don’t know if I noticed this before, but his cloak is really nice in the first one. I mean, for my skill level. He’s got his shield and quiver on his back – he’s fully outfitted, except for food… and a knife would come in handy… and stuff… Second picture has good upper body positioning but everything else is pretty sloppy. Oh well, it wasn’t meant to be as good as the first one anyway.

Yasashisani!

Chibi Flairé and Flaria! Eeee!

I originally drew Flaria’s guitar backwards.

Not terribly good even for chibis, but good heads, maybe.

They’re singing that second Kiki song from the Studio Ghibli CD. The one with the acoustic guitars. The one that doesn’t sound vaguely like the Beach Boys. I have no idea what it means, but it sounds dancible. ^_^

Flaer and two Links

Flaer’s new hair! I like this way better than the old, non-descript version. Isn’t it pretty… I am also happy with the way he’s folding his arms. It came out almost looking normal!

Gee, he has hair longer than me! Is that a problem?

The top Link head is not wonderful, but the bottom is passable. Mouth a bit crooked, though. Not sure what they’re doing on the same page as Flaer, though.

Flaria

I tried to get Flairé to comfort me for the last picture, but he was out.

I was going to draw Flairé, but she came out too girly.

Er, by ‘she’ I mean he ended up as Flaria his sister. And I’m aware that androgynity… androgynousness… androgyny… (okay, I used a spellcheck) means he looks like a girl a lot anyway. But there is a limit he won’t go beyond.
