I hope this isn't too rough...

yesidiaz @ 2007-08-26 01:45:24

ah i really like it! very nice coloring, especially the dress! and i love how her hair is curly and those wings so shiny, small and ccute! and she also has a sexy pose very nice picture indeed.

arwin @ 2007-08-26 06:37:20

Those colors are great. I also like those little stars and text with line. Could use a bit of tidying up and work on details though. But I just love this concept.

weisen1 @ 2007-08-26 23:18:26

That's adorable XDD
It's like a patch you'd stick on the jacket

tiamat4eva @ 2007-09-27 21:06:18

i actually like how it feels like an old style

PaintBBS

yesidiaz @ 2007-08-25 14:45:59

Too many problems with shi painter I am sooooo not using it again cuz I had to recolor this pic 3 times ;_;
anyways enjoy
and thank you so much LaurieSuncat for saving my pic xD

it's sad I lost the animation tho, oh well :P

if you want to count the recoloring this took around 3 hours T_T
i remember the unifnished picture said it took around 80 mins which was the lineart, bg and the angel's skin.

LaurieSuncat @ 2007-08-25 14:47:00

Recovered.

weisen1 @ 2007-08-25 18:09:06

It still looks very nice though
Shame you lost the animation
I gotta say I'm in love with the symmetry though

May Ein @ 2007-08-26 12:51:31

I'm really drawn to this picture.
Your coloring style is very pretty, and I like the calmness this gives off.
Love the hair, too. :3

Shi Painter

Reyna @ 2007-08-20 23:31:27

Erm... not finished with this yet! Not really. Still details to be added in but alas, I have to skitter off to bed for the evening. And hooray! Firstest picture post for me! o3o

Reyna @ 2007-08-21 23:57:20

And now it is completed! A little on the messy side, but I'm not quite used to this sort of thing yet.

blancChocolat @ 2007-08-22 00:29:26

pretty! i like the bluish hue and the smooth looking wings :) her lips are very shiny as well. :) love the overall feel

weisen1 @ 2007-08-22 01:16:22

Those wings look ethereal and lovely
Her eyes are quite dark.. they're captivating @__@

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-22 18:08:20

I like the colors and the wonderful details. Good job.

Reyna @ 2007-08-22 20:11:36

Thanks for all the comment! Haha... just noticed that the animation is all kinds of cracked out after I retouched the image. XD

yesidiaz @ 2007-09-22 01:03:27

i really luv the color scheme and style for this picture its just very lovely and that wing wow its just amazing the feathers look so great!

Shi Painter

blancChocolat @ 2007-08-20 14:19:49

uhh..yah :) my first post in hte calender board. This is done entirely in hard lines (pen+pencil tool) :) i'm training myself off watercolor. Yep :) C+C appreciated :P

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-20 15:58:59

I'm fascinated by the eyes. They are very clear and intense. The bloody stump of the wing reminds me of that movie Dogma. I think the skin colors could have been blended a bit more to smooth them out because it does look really rough compared to the smooth finished appearance of the eyes. I like the deranged vibes of your pic. Welcome to the Calendar room.
edit -- I can see the difference and I like the color you added to the bg also. ^_^

(Edited on August 22, 2007, 9:49 am)

weisen1 @ 2007-08-21 11:49:10

What rang true to fukuhashi rang true for me as well
The eyes are creepy clear and oh so intense, and the overall image has a stunning effect
The skin, as mentioned above, might need a little blurring and maybe the hair could be crisper against the skin, right now it sorta looks like a wip this way

blancChocolat @ 2007-08-21 17:07:17

i fixed the skintones fo the most part :)

Shi Painter

SilverTop @ 2007-08-18 13:35:10

An experiment with the water brush. WIP

SilverTop @ 2007-08-19 02:21:32

Looking at it again, some things could be better (good grief..the neck is way too long). But no time, so..I'll have to call it done.

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-19 10:41:02

It's a beautiful drawing. Watching the animation is a real treat as always. From the front page I thought she was an angel because the bg has almost a curve of a wing to it but then I noticed the title and that you uploaded before the theme change. It actually works for both themes. Well done.

Silis @ 2007-08-19 11:22:02

This is gorgeous. So calm, but the colors are so sad. I love it, I was drawn almost magnetically from the main page. XD

weisen1 @ 2007-08-20 13:34:02

One of the best ways to use the water brush.. for water 8DD
But seriously, this came out amazing, I was actually waiting around for you to finish it XD
The solidity of the face is really accentuated by the smooth liquid feel of thee water around her, and vice versa

blancChocolat @ 2007-08-20 14:36:00

gorgeous, her profile stands out against the background giving her form. I love how her hair melts into the background.

GeminiRyoko @ 2007-09-18 20:29:49

This is beautiful! I love all the different shades of blues and the mixture of a little bit of pink.

PaintBBS

cattomao @ 2007-08-18 03:40:44

obviously not done yet >< wahhh!!

edit: DONE!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D
im not so happy with it i guess.. D: but i was experimenting with no lineart and lighter colors. @_@ so hardd ><

crits and comments please :D :D :D
THANKS XD tehe ^^

(Edited on August 20, 2007, 3:29 am)

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-20 10:35:50

I think she's pretty. The soft, high key colors really give your pic that magical girl transformation moment.

luluhulu @ 2007-08-20 14:55:46

ooooh cattoma!!! so pretty ^^ i love the colors! hehehe

how late were you up too??? aiyaaa D: D: D:

krn3cutii @ 2007-08-29 13:23:24

OMG beautiful! I love the softness and calm feeling of the picture

Koffi @ 2007-08-17 23:34:39

It's your perfect little Cardcaptor, dreaming her familiar dream up atop the building across from the Tokyo tower :D.

Hope you enjoy this, I enjoyed drawing it :3

kupocoffee @ 2007-08-18 13:15:24

Sakura is one of the most kawaii magical girls I have ever seen. I really enjoy the background and the blossoms floating down. I really like the design lay out of the drawing. Nice work :D

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-18 16:51:16

It wouldn't be a true Magical Girl week without Sakura from Card Captor. Well done. ^_^

PaintBBS

kupocoffee @ 2007-08-17 01:02:15

A magical girl Created by Megumi Tachikawa. She's like the kawaii version of Robin Hood. It's a pretty good Shojo. I really hope this are yp to the standards of the room.

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-17 06:24:10

Nicely done. She has such pretty eyes and a nice smile. Welcome to the Calendar Room, kupocoffee!

uwlie @ 2007-08-17 16:48:52

this is really cute! <3
but her shoulder bothers me....>>

pinehapple surf @ 2007-08-18 00:02:13

Uwaaa I like shininess of the hair and the background looks so nice~

DarkAngelGirl120 @ 2007-09-02 03:27:53

I love it. Yay for Saint Tail! <3 I need to get the full manga collection... and the anime.

Kittyboy @ 2007-09-03 23:35:22

:D I LOVE saint tail!!! X3 I have all the manga!!!! >///< it's such a cute romance story!<3

Pretty Mutation Magical Recall!!!

Pretty Sammy belongs to Masaki Kajishima. I'm just having some fun drawing her. Enjoy.

(Edited on August 15, 2007, 11:53 pm)

GeminiRyoko @ 2007-08-16 15:19:42

Aww Pretty Sammy! I love it. You did a good job.

kupocoffee @ 2007-08-17 01:09:10

I always loved this character. I really love that she poses with her hands, This is probably one of the first anime drawings I've ever seen you post, It's awesome. Nice work :D

cattomao @ 2007-08-20 13:48:03

hehehe so cute!!
i like watching the animation and seeing how you cleaned up the lineart and stuff :) awesome!
and great job with the left hand!! hands are always my weak spot D:

PaintBBS

Auriliayh @ 2007-08-13 17:34:40

Whoohoo fun. This was my first attempt at solids. I'm not sure how I did, but I rather enjoyed doing it. The eyes were interesting to colour.

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-13 18:04:22

Yay for magical girls! That's a cute outfit and I wish I could see more of her helmet/hat. I like the colors you picked for her and the magical glow plus the butterflies around her. ^_^

kupocoffee @ 2007-08-17 01:17:53

She just looks so magical with that cute outfit. I really like the nice touch of the butterflies floating around. Fantastic job :D

cattomao @ 2007-08-20 03:26:27

awww so cute!!! xD
i adore those butterflies :D

Shi Painter

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-11 17:43:08

I really thought I was going to lose this one and even now I'm not sure. The angel disappeared, then his sword disappeared. I'm thankful it seems to be working now.

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-11 17:53:54

This obviously didn't take me 13 minutes. I'm too slow. However the pic did have trouble uploading and I think that caused the glitch in the timer.

weisen1 @ 2007-08-11 18:33:59

It's usually the refresh that shortens the timer
But anywho, I like the colour contrast that went into the image, blue against the impending warmth of the angel :3

kupocoffee @ 2007-08-17 01:12:12

Yes I know the feeling of a drawing that has been lost but at least you have the drawing here in one piece. I really love your colouring skills, It's so soft and yet painting like. This is great work!

safety save. C:

May Ein @ 2007-08-11 14:42:20

Done. :0
I now remember why I never use paint bbs anymore.
Tried out a new style with the hair.
Comments and critiques?

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-11 18:35:45

She's very pretty. The pic has a wonderful sense of warmth and serenity. Good job.

Shi Painter

Person @ 2007-08-10 01:00:07

Hope this is ok. It didn't take as long as the timer says because I was going back and forth between this and many things. I had wanted to do the samurai theme but my internet crashed for a long while so I did angel theme instead. testing a new tablet. Critiques and comments please.

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-11 18:31:23

Nicely done. The sky looks lovely and so does her shiny hair. Her wings remind me of a dragonfly's wings.

weisen1 @ 2007-08-11 18:31:32

The overall feel of this image is nice
Her pose I adore, with movement in everywhich direction
The folds on her sleeve seem a tad unrealistic... unless of course she had it pushed up before

PaintBBS

Jo Tyler @ 2007-08-08 17:40:40

wow, it's very....dark lol

weisen1 @ 2007-08-08 19:03:47

Actually, yeah, it is
REAL dark.. so I turned up the brightness on my monitor
So now I can see the face, and what a pretty face it is.. she is quite the angel
And she's so very pretty.. that tattoo of hers almost looks like it's glooooowing @__@

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-09 07:38:12

Very bold! I like her outfit and the flame-like wings.

Fanpire @ 2008-09-25 18:36:32

Oh... my.. gosh. I love it *drools*

Shi Painter

Mortica @ 2007-08-07 13:49:33

Uh oh... I kinda like it ^^' And yes, she has the sunset in her eyes (eye).

The pose is from Christina Ricci (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/193/449717685_9ffb978ca2.jpg), a actress I totally admire.

May Ein @ 2007-08-07 19:44:42

This is a really pretty peice.
I love the lighting, and how she just fades to black.
Her eyes and lips are striking, and it's a great interpretation of an angel. :0

pipi @ 2007-08-08 01:59:41

I like the pose~~~ The warm color wings and the cold color body make such good contrast to the picture! Very well done! (^_^)

weisen1 @ 2007-08-08 16:36:44

Lovely, the blue is so striking against the warm wings
And the way you shaded the skin is so subtle and leaves a lot of room for interpretation :3

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-09 07:35:36

So much to like about this pic. I <3 the hint of a halo or aura behind her head. Nice work.

blancChocolat @ 2007-08-20 14:38:26

simply gorgeous! Her fingernails complete the contrast lol. The wings are gorgeous! they look so fluffy!

AndrePaz @ 2007-08-06 21:20:54

Maybe this angel smiles to Chile XD

Red Jello @ 2007-08-07 00:26:43

Very cute. It reminds me of a picture in a Religious coloring book!

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-07 10:06:11

I like the pic's muted colors and the style of the wings That's a beautiful angel.

PaintBBS

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-08-03 00:08:18

I used a variety of reference photos. I am so tired I can not think of anything else to write.

edit: The castle has more straight lines now and doesnt look so scribbly. Im much happier with the pic now than I was last night. Thank you for the nice comment Africa.

(Edited on August 3, 2007, 2:16 pm)

Africa @ 2007-08-03 01:49:04

Very interesting ans successful use of solids here. I think it emphasises on the style and theme you're achieving. Good work.

weisen1 @ 2007-08-04 02:14:25

That's an interesting interpretation
The solids are so.. vector like, it's really interesting to stare at @__@

kupocoffee @ 2007-08-17 01:23:01

I like the realism of the person and the mixture between the soft water colours and the solids. Those Trees are delightful, they have so much detail. I like the stucture of the castle, magnificant job ;D

Shi Painter

Lumin @ 2007-07-18 15:42:19

at least I had try )))

frannelly @ 2007-07-18 16:20:24

great job, looks exactly like her.
i love the solid shading C:

ksyring1 @ 2007-07-18 18:50:57

awesome shading - her skin is beautiful! and i agree with the above comment - looks exactly like her :)

tish @ 2007-07-19 14:13:15

Ha! I'm licky today! First this is Angelina Jolie, second - it's drawn by Lumin! ;))

weisen1 @ 2007-07-19 14:36:27

Well you're right there
You tried... and succeeded :D *coughhackdie*
But yeah, your style of shading is amazing, with all those solid blocks of watercolour that just look like acrylic, plus this is just mighty accurate protrayal :D

Person @ 2007-07-20 02:24:07

Looks like her to me. You did her high cheek bones very well.

RedRose263 @ 2007-07-20 10:06:26

Everyone loves Angelina. :)

omedeto @ 2007-07-30 13:17:39

I like this one a lot! I think you captured her features very well and the style is just brilliant!

bababadoo @ 2009-08-09 22:44:53

Looks great!

eliasvegeta @ 2010-06-06 11:36:11

I really like the way you captured her. I love the lips!

SilverTop @ 2007-07-13 03:33:58

Kinda got distracted drawing the details, but now I'm going to call it done.

Tari @ 2007-07-13 16:59:33

I'm love with that tapestry so smooth, I want it! ^^

weisen1 @ 2007-07-13 21:09:07

Mmm.. nice
Looks like cel shading meets art nouveau :3

fukuhashi343 @ 2007-07-14 08:24:50

ZOMG! You always create such lovely artwork. The tapestry looks great and I like the clothes the princess is wearing. I hope you'll continue to fill The Calendar with more of your drawings.

Africa @ 2007-07-16 17:16:12

Wow....gorgeous colours, so smooth. That unicorn is breathtaking. So stylish.

Sinandez @ 2008-11-22 18:44:00

oooh, what beautiful background!! The unicorn is lovely. And the tree is really really good, too! Overall, it has a fairytale-touch to it, I like it.

BluePiccolo @ 2007-07-07 04:19:30

Can a job get better than this?
True, it's hard work and the bugs suck and the bears are scary, but you just can't beat it!

This is my treeplanter boyfriend in his planting gear. The background is a mixture of pictures I have from planting over the last couple summers.

ReoRei @ 2007-07-08 12:58:32

Aw That would be a fun job.
Trees are very important..

weisen1 @ 2007-07-08 14:47:08

That job is pretty amazing
And he looks ready to rip up some dirt :D
The shading is so nice and subtle and well placed @__@
