So it matches her facial structure for the most part?

Yeah the first one I think reminded me of Cas too much. Damn elf clones!
I love your coloring style Eden, its so soft.

aaannnd I was inspired by you earlier so I did a quick sketch and fast color of Alcy. Quite different from the gorgeous softness of your style lol, but it was fun anyhow:
Yay more fuel for the Ardent art fire! Very cute nicole :3
Thank you. I had fun with this one, didn't take it too seriously lol.
What program do you use to color your pieces?
I usually use Sai, though for some of my more painter-y recent ones I was using a Corel trial. Let me know if you want Sai, I have gift copies. ^_^
Well I'm sure it can't hurt to have it lol, I do attend art school. But if you need those gift copies don't give them up lol.
Sent!

a91nicole, I think I need some help with Rynn and Alcy as well. Rynn's references have a pretty consistent facial structure but they're also pretty small, as far as the face itself goes. Is this somewhat in line with what you imagine Rynn's face to be? And do you have any better pictures of what Alcy's facial structure is like?
This isn't looking like Rynn to me at all but I am scratching my head as to what to do differently...
I'm gonna do as many sketches as I can at once since I am in sketchy mode and not coloring mode. And that never happens, ever. XD

I'm also really not sure how Rynn's hair should be. I'm totally failing on this one. XD
---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------
Another attempt, neither is looking like Rynn to me...
I need your help dammit. XD
ha ha sorry girl. Just saw you posting on here. Okay verbal descriptions:
Rynn: High cheekbones, her face is more tall than it is wide. Her hair is actually supposed to be fairly curly, though not tight banana curls. A slight nose, pointed up just a bit at the end. Think catlike, feline. Her hair is fairly untamed and she has a more triangular jaw than a square jaw.
Images: Larger version of first
Hair just like this A more narrow face than the second pic though.
As far as colors, her hair is actually red, not the orange red of more "redheads" and her eyes are a dark green.
To correct the sketch, raise the cheekbones to nearly just below the eye, nose turned up the slightest bit, curl the hair and make it a bit more wild. Color always helps. Alcy will be in next post

Alcy: Okay, shes younger than Rynn, so a more rounded face, less angles. Hair has more of a wave and body than a curl. Brown hair with a little red, light green eyes. Not so catlike. turned up nose thouhg, a little, cause she is young. And this type of face, but a different nose:
one
Two

Help any?
Hmm, okay. I will definitely do that!
I went back to coloring mode though so I will get back to Rynn's sketch later. In the meantime... -has insane amounts of fun with Deryn's headband-
Yup helps LOTS!! ty!
You are very welcome. Glad I could be of assistance.
And Deryn, which I'll probably need to touch up as I am exhausted. And resent her for having lips that were so much easier than Cas'...
Bwaaa~ She came out so well! Thanks for that~ I've never had a character drawn so much by someone who is actually trying. xD
And I hope you have not a single still moment.
Glad you're happy with it : D I probably won't do any more today unless I get random drawing itches.
I'm working on a picture of Deryn and Cas... and since there is nothing better to do since the outside world shut down due to Irene I'm probably going to make more. I will most likely be drawing the female cast first... since it's easier but I might do couples pictures.. like Cain and Alcy. ^^ Doing various things that I can see them doing.
And I hope you have not a single still moment.
Eeee, you are making me all excited Schizo : D
Cas and Deryn sure are fun to draw together though. :3 Yeah, I have an easier time with female faces, too, lol. Though Fort's tends to be a little easier since...errrhhhh...it's somewhat more similar to how I draw female faces. xD
-dodges mental daggers from miles away-
I really can't wait to see ^^
Certain characters obviously have good chemistry, and I always like drawing amusing scenes. ^^ Which those two generate often.
And I hope you have not a single still moment.
Speaking of, I wish I could draw guys more easily, Barasa and Deryn would get so much sketch-time. xD
She's done! I probably could have gotten more detailed but power is gonna go out soon so I wanted to save it and show you before it happened! ^^
Title: "How Cas always wins." xD
And I hope you have not a single still moment.
Eeee, I love it. 8D
Nonsense. Cas wins with violence. DO-OVER!
I so want them to actually play cards now. xD This is adorable, Schiz. :3

I love your style, do you use SAI?
Thanks! I should have had a loaf of Gypsy bread on the floor between us to add some nostalgia. xD
Nope, I've never sprung for any actual drawing programs.. even though I probably should. I just use photoshop.
And I hope you have not a single still moment.
Looks awesome Schiz! Those two are hilarious xD
-grabbyhands- D; I wants photoshoppp.

Thanks Lumine!
Doesn't photoshop usually come with most tablets? It came with mine.
And I hope you have not a single still moment.
Depends on the kind you get. I did get PS Elements with it but not only did it go poof... it wasn't designed for drawing, more so editiing pictures. Was totally not the same x-x Other tablets come with Corel Painter of some sort as well.... but mine didn't x-x;; Probs has to do with the fact that I got one of the cheaper Wacom Tablets xD s'not very big.

Excited about Cain/Alcy pic. I feel they will have lots of immature fun.
And the Deryn pic, Eden, looks really good.
Also, love the Cas/Deryn pic. Deryn's outfit is awesome. WANT.
Ardent pics are just fun to look at in general.
Ok, how's this for a quick Rynn sketch? Not happy with the hair but I'm looking for feedback on the face. Lines provided for reference on where I'm going to shade her cheekbones at
The face looks pretty good to me. I like the nose
Ok, I can do the hair fine so as long as you're OK with the face I'm good!
omfg that's awesome xD
