I like the shading you did on this piece. Especcially in the night sky. But I think you could have scattered the small stars across the...

Another progress report!

Tue Sep 8, 2009, 12:34 PM
As I have, of late, again only odd moments and so forth to work on my OOAK creations, there's nothing much to take photos of, yet. But I haven't been idle in the time I do have.
So there has been some progrress on several items on my To-Do-List.

So, what have I been up to then:

I've finished the lineart on my first Star Wars FanArt in about 7 years: A drawing of Darth Vader, done after my very favorit picture of my All-Time favorit SWtar Wars character!

Both StrongHeart dolls are now completly rerooted and have had their hair dressed.

The following dresses for Christine Daae from Phantom of the Opera are finished: Masquerade Gown, Mourning Gown, Elyssa Gown, The POTO Outfit she wears while descending to the Phantoms lair.
her wedding dress is almost finished as well.

Also, I've had some new ideas for my LLL stuff.
There will be some more dresses:
As the Duchess gets invited to LLL's wedding, she's got to wear something, doesn't she?
Also a Dutchess and A Princess wouldn't wear their 'every day clothes' to go riding on their horses. They would wear something special for that ocation. So the two will get riding clothes.
I might do a riding outfi for Strongheart too. But I'm not sure aboutthat yet....

In her youth, the duchess wandet to marry Prince Strongheart. (Propably was kinda in love with him, if one can use that term with her). As they are dancing together at a ball her father is giving, he tells her that he'll never marry her because she's got a heart of stone, despite her beauty.

I'm 24 and living in Germany. I have been drawing for about 9 years now. With results that where presentable, that is.... :D
I always liked to draw as a kid, but this particular Talent never showed until I was already 14.
From that point on, I drew every now and again, with mixed results. But some where already good enough, so the tecknique itself was not.
The cover picture from Òh! My Godess! - The movie brought me to manga/ anime style drawing. I got my first two books about How to go about to draw in that style for my 18th bithday- from my grandmother.
I've been drawing in that style ever since ( about 6 years by now)
The results you can see in my gallaery. Though not all my pictures are in it. There are a lot of pictures, done for training purpose, only containing copies from books, I did while learning.
I'm still learning, as it is, but depending on what I wanna do, I only need guidance to helpme archieve what I've got in mind. Sometimes more, sometimes less.
But by now, a lot of my pictures capture ideas of my own. Some inspired by fanfictions I liked, but others mere fancies of mine.

Since last spring, I'm also into making OOAK Dolls. (recreting Dolls to be something different)
I started with Lady Lovely Locks and her friends, but I now venture further.
I already did Graf Von Krolock from Tanz der Vampire, and Jane Eyre (ispired by the 2006 BBC movie). But there are a lot more to come yet, as I have a whole lot of ideas. But OOAK dolls are a time consuming work.
You can't finish them as quickly as you would like, often enough....
So there are only two of my recent works finished and up in my gallery...

So, what do I do, besides what is displayed here at DA?
I like to read, I like RPG's (but no online ones, thank you very much!) I love audiobooks, I like archeriy, and I'm into medivial markets and stuff ( I'm member of an medieval association)
I also like writing. One story is also here at DA. Though not quiete up to date and only in my native german.

You're very welcome. ^^
But what was I to do? You've got so much wonderful artwork in your galery.
That has to be at least, honoured by a fav. Usually, I'll go back and actually write a reply to them. So, that'll come too, when I've got more time. Because I've not much of it lately, sadly.... :(

But keep up the good work! Your drawings are really great! I myself can't do anything that realistic. Wich is, propably why I've settled for manga/anime style....
But you are really talented, I think.

Are you going to color some of your stuff? Really would sute some of them, I'd like to think. And a lot of them really deserve it, in my humble opinion.

Hallo,
Du hast eine nette :gallery: hier bei :devart:
Mir gefallen Deine Kostüme für die Puppen. Ich selbst habe auch ein ganzes Zimmer voll und muß wohl mal welche hier zeigen. Oh, my goddess
war auch einer der 1.Mangas die ich gelesen habe und deswegen zeichne ich mittlerweile auch solche Bilder. Schau doch mal auf das Forum TheAnimelord dort findest Du noch mehr Fans - wenn Du dich dafür interessierst.
:bye:

:bow:

Let us all be friends :please:
:iconalarda:
Dankeschön.
Aber ich darf dich korrigieren: bis auf die 4 Lady Lockenlichtpuppen tragen die Puppen nicht nur die selbstgenähten kleider, auch die Haare sind komplett neuaufgezogen und das Gesicht neu bemalt.
