This was a little exercise in drawing from a description. A friend shared part of her story with me, and the description of one piece of jewelry was so evocative I wanted to draw it!

Oooh, that's so pretty! It looks super 3D and real, I love how you've shaded the facets.

Ana Nymus, that is very beautiful. Made with the right material it will reflect slightly different colors and shades depending on how the light hits it.
I want one to add to my jewelry collection.

[Ana Nymus]

Thank you both! I wish I had a pendant like that of my own as well, though I don't know off the top of my head which gemstones would give a rich purple color like that. Iolite, maybe? I'd have to do some research to make it reality!

I really like the artwork, Ana Nymus, great detail attention! And the purple background certainly helps the 3D "pop" effect.

Iolite, lepidolite, simple amethyst would do maybe? I once also saw a purple tourmaline pendant, it looked very lovely (and had a most not-lovely price, well).

Ana Nymus, that looks so cool and realistic! Good job!

I've been playing around with copying art styles of shows and I think I've nailed Voltron's style

(Poor camera quality, but whatever)
I'm giving this to a friend at school, Lance is her favorite and she is the self-proclaimed Blue Paladin

Very nice rendering, it looks solid!

[Ana Nymus]

Thanks for the compliments again!

Ooh, Voltron! I just binged this entire series. That's a great Lance (right down to the expression)! I hope your friend liked it

Thanks! She did love it, too. I handed it to her at school and she freaked out and dropped her backpack!

So, one of my friends has a birthday coming up, and she loves musicals (she's the reason I love musicals now), but she LOVES "Newsies".
so, yep

Also, can I just say. The actor who did the jump for the photo. Is his back ok? Because I don't think backs were meant to be in that position. Ow

[Ana Nymus]

That is indeed an impressive amount of back flexibility! o.o It's a lovely drawing!

You got me thinking about Voltron (not a hard thing to do!) and so I had to draw my favorite paladin.
Anyone who knows me would be completely unsurprised to learn I identify with the smol green computer nerd.


(My headcanon is that Pidge and Lance (mostly Pidge) managed to rig up a system to play the videogame they got at the mall, and the rest of the paladins sneak over to use it when they're not there)

Oh my gosh, it's awesome! They totally would figure out how to rig it up
