Oh gods, this is a mess.
First of all, I'm sorry I haven't been on the forums a lot over the last couple of weeks! I have had a lot of work and revision build up recently, and I needed to take a break from time consuming internet things - mostly because I am a terrible procrastinator and will do anything to avoid work.

Which leads onto my second point, which is about the joint project; seemingly even banning myself from going online too much couldn't stop me from avoiding responsibilities, because I still decided to start work on the joint project that's currently in progress. Buuuut, having mostly finished the lineart I just realised that not only have I gotten the dimensions and resolution wrong, but there is now a prompt as well. Which my drawing doesn't really fit into. Oops.



I tried. I failed.
It looks like I'm going to have to start anew, but I might finish this some other time. It's all practice, I guess! I have one more week of trying to avoid the internet left but after that I'm good to go, so I'm looking forward to that at least :) Now I just need to try and catch up on all the posts I missed...

I also agree that it looks good. I like the little details, and the face is very expressive! :)

Kahli's preview.



Um...I literally have no idea on what kind of background to put in there, well I do have an idea but it's basically the tracks and side to one of the armored vehicles. Also do you have any particular pattern you want for the magic spell you're concentrating on?



Also I found this and have no idea what to use this for but it's awesome.

OHMYGOD EEEEEEEEEEEE I LOVE THEM BOTH OF THEM THEY ARE AMAZING AND WONDERFUL AND YAY AND THANK YOU! :D

I'm so glad I stayed up to wait! Don't tell Ana (she'll probably find this though and tell us both we were up too late)

It actually looks like real live me, especially the second one. I may have to do an avatar change... ^^

YOU'RE WELCOME ;D I have to admit that if I know what someone looks like, it ends up influencing my drawings. I'd be extremely flattered if you used my drawing as an avatar, but it'll be weird not seeing you as Iceland. :D also I just now realized that I didn't give her eyebrows... oh well. They're under the bangs.

...And Ana cannot control me! Peh! I was going to go to bed earlier if I'd been done with the drawing! Heck, I'm going to bed now!

So cute!  I love the sort of Northern Lights effect of Viola's rune-spell.  I also really like her handsome, practical Icelandic sweater, with the shoulder patches and handwarmer pockets.

The bonus SATW Iceland portrait is just Made of Win.

Nice scene! And that cat must be heavy... Or is it just fur? Anyway, this is pretty! :)
Thank you! As for heavyness, mostly fur but I have the distinct impression that even so, Bosse is not exactly lightweigth..

Piney: Iceland Viola is perfect. Mage Viola is great too, I like the effects you've used to create a kind of television snowstorm from unspeakable dephts,
Viola: Me like :)
Solokov: I'ts coming along really nicely, I like watching your progress on these!
KaunitaUnia: I think your drawing fits well with the prompt, and it is really pretty!

Art-Trade with Keeper:

I'm having loads of fun width shadowing, and have tried to use some of the tips from this amazing guys excellent tutorials. Keeper Madelines dress ended up green instead of black due to heavy influence of Lord Vetinaris thoughts on camouflage.

"Ok, I need to kill time. I'll just draw something plotless and pointless."

"... um, well... hello, Haiz?"

Actually I don't know for what I did this. But it's still plotless and pointless. I'm so sorry, Haiz.



Also, Unlos, it looks really good! I like the color of the dress (and now I'm going to reread some Pratchett's books, thanks :D )
