Havent been in Oekakicentral in years sure miss this place so have a water color jay I did while getting use to the tools =:3

paperninjacat @ 2011-10-28 01:12:28

I thought I'd try a different tool and style. Hopefully it's not too rough.

Rockingquix @ 2011-10-29 02:43:36

Has a very nice sketchy feel to it I like it =:3

Its a bird, I swear.

Touketsu @ 2011-10-07 22:29:57

I believe you. This is awesome!

hide_King_of_Psyborg @ 2011-10-09 16:49:41

its a beautiful bird. looks like a phoenix :D

Lotuslight @ 2011-10-14 10:21:53

Love the colors. You have such a unique and engaging style

Touketsu @ 2011-09-14 03:10:28

Blame almost-3:00 A.M. for the title... ^_^"

Alternative title: First Flight?

Uhhhh, dunno what to say for this one. I dislike doing lineart and perspective hates me, and I also can't draw rocks. I'll prolly tweak the lineart later and the compression killed a lot of the detail.

Please pardon my nearly-incoherent sentence structure, it's the best my poor brain can do right now.

Oh, the timer says that this person is easily distracted. BG is watercolor with a touch of airbrush, lineart/coloring is mostly pencil, shading was mostly done with dodge/burn tools.

C&C plox. *zonk*

tish @ 2011-09-15 01:57:02

Your dragon looks great, and shading made it look really 3d. (especially on thumbnail view)
I think BG needs more ?contrast? - far far away it indeed could look like that due to atmosferic hase, at least rock dragin standing on should look more contrast. (well, IMHO of cource).

Great job.

Touketsu @ 2011-09-16 04:06:01

Retouched the rock to add a higher level of contrast and to add some cracks to the rock.The rest of the image is untouched, though I considered making the dragon "shinier" by increasing the contrast between highlights and lowlights. (Didn't happen.)

tish @ 2011-09-16 04:51:27

Great job. That crack looks so real.

Touketsu @ 2011-09-16 22:41:19

Thank you. I should add my reference, huh? Here it is, then, the only reference I used:

I would have worked harder on this if I had known that I couldn't use the flipping eraser tool. >:I

Anyway, this is my favorite beastie, Andrewsarchus. It was about six feet tall at the shoulder and twelve feet long, not including its tail. Though it looks very hyena-ish, if you look at the toes, its claws are broad, flat and hoof-like.

That's right.

Andrewsarchus was a carnivorous sheep.

Unfortunately, hooved carnivores couldn't adapt to the changing atmosphere as Earth started to go into an ice age, so they were wiped out. ;__;

SApprentice @ 2011-06-13 22:31:47

SS, finish soon

SApprentice @ 2011-06-13 22:48:54

Hmm... Kind of want to leave it like this, unless anyone has any objections.

the-muriatic-acid @ 2011-07-01 16:59:03

Hmm.. you could show us what he is murdering =D...ok, maybe it's better this way!

This kept wanting to turn into a horse. (But I said "NAY[NEIGH]" and persevered.)

Can I plead for gerenuks, next?

Bay Arab Stallion, Reference from http://www.flickr.com/photos/rayand/3890478086/. I <3 him. Still experimenting with the different boards and tools.

tish @ 2011-04-27 02:53:19

Great job.
I think you probably should try and draw in Mirror Room.

gryphongirl @ 2011-05-29 21:36:09

nice! awesome shading!

Latinishish @ 2011-04-19 02:33:03

Don't really like it, looks like a goat and I got lazy.

tish @ 2011-04-20 04:19:46

Nice job.
Love the textures.

Lotuslight @ 2011-05-13 16:43:28

Nah, I can tell its a Tsessebe. I was looking at images of them in case I wanted to do one. Never did but yours looks more like one then it does a goat. Good job.

gryphongirl @ 2011-05-29 21:36:36

nice proportions

Also, timer lies. I get distracted very easily.
