Legacy LD5

These two pics were done in a styling series in unison with my last posted Vanessa pic http://www.lavadomefive.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=148.

The ninja lizardman. I believe Hienhoono, meaning "CalmFire" in Japanese, as was his original name.

And Zasia Sylvani, the sweet hearted gatoress. But a deadly frost mage if you endanger her or her friends. I am rather pleased and was able to show her plus sized frame a bit better in this one.

Oh, and her humanoid race is dark elf. I made her blue skin too deep though, tried to lighten up on it even but it was too late, the damage was done. Her skin is more of an azure, a grayish blue.

You certainly put a lot of work and thought into details and working of the bodies and their scaly anatomy, making it all very reasonable and fall into place neatly. You certainly are really good at drawing your characters, its just a bit sad that they end up so washed out all mostly when all the color and surfcae detail you put into it covers up the pencil lines so the forms are end up ratehr washed out and are hard to grasp. I'm not sure if inking will do any good there as that all pencils makes your style, but maybe you can enhance them on pc, or first scan the lineart only to later throw that over the picture with a division filter or something in photoshop / photopaint?

Thanks for the compliments. And thanks so much for the advice, I appreciate the whack at trying to help me. But I must disagree, that I just need to keep brushing up on my technique. You see, I fixitive spray, then go over my pencil lines is exactly technique, I do that to try to shade with my colored pencils to the exact as possible.

Wow, those are just gorgeous...and not just 'cause of the claws.

Thanks Dino.
