Artist's Comments

This is Ife (I wish I knew how to put the apostrophe over the "e"). Alice's love interest in one of my stories/game ideas.

I am experimenting with shading and I think the shading seems a bit weird. Please tell me what you guys think.

I love her curls, but your right, her shading is a little off. There are tons of skin coloring tutorials out there so I know one of them can help you.

What made you decide to make her fins blue, black, and purple? You combined the colors in an interesting way.

I was going for an African look and I was basing her off of a Yoruba goddess who's name is Oya. Oya has a color that is associated with her and that is purple. I based this character on a lion fish and those fish come in many weird colors (striped and often white with some other color). I just went creative with her. Could you give me the tutorial? I was shading her as if the sun was on half of her body.

The shading looks pretty good. Keep practicing!! ^_^ Maybe you should do character sheets? They have the front, back, and sometimes sides of the characters. Sometimes they have the characters various facial expressions.

I've always wanted to do one of those. I've always liked seeing character sheets in art books. My only problem is drawing my character the exact way every time.

Uh no, not for colored pencils and markers, but I'm sure there are plenty of them on deviant. Why don't you give the search bar a try.

Oh, I finally found 2 artists willing to help me with Foxtaile, but I still need a background artist. Either way, at least some things are happening.
