Your drawings keep getting better, have I already said that? The lighting is amazing, and I'm loving all the parkour poses! :)

thanks!! I wish I was posting more frequently too, there's just a lot of stuff happening. I do indeed keep the general thread updated, so if you're really interested you may look through the posts I've made and you'll probably find it? wow htat sounds self-absorbed hahahaNO PROBLEM 8) your parkour series is absolutely amazing btw
Thank you!!
Haiz: I actually went and plowed through the latest 20-something pages of GD-thread after I had typed my question because I felt like a lazy butt, so I'm more-or-less updated once more. Mostly a lurker on that thread, but you have my best wishes! Lovely mage-selfie and really funny sketch, Karris hair has really evolved since we were first introduced, huh.

Gwenno, beautiful painting, and the salt effect reminds me of adding salt to silk paintings (which I did exactly 2 of in high school), seems like the effect is kind of similar. I had no idea it would do the same thing on paper, it looks really cool!

I did Dancingranger today! I'm starting to get ridiculously pleased with these, and as a conseqence I use more and more time on each.
(If any of the remaining scouts find a parkour pose they really want their sssona in, just shoot me a PM and I'll do my best! (Elisabeth, Claire, Emil (if he is a scout, I'm not sure?), Adrai, Frenci and Sabrina, this means you :) So far I've done Hanna, Shane, Riika, Matthew and KMK in these poses (Solokov, Ilmari and Clara got drawn before I stumbled on this trend)


reference pose: http://resources3.news.com.au/images/2013/05/09/1226638/165375-gcb-parkour.jpg
I'll put in the WIP's later, if you like

*EDIT* WIPS!:
Spoiler: show
First try that I scrapped. The pose was really hard for me to understand.

For the second try, I did the trusty old draw the spaces outside the person instead of trying to to place limbs correctly, and it worked much better:

*Internal squeeing* Haha, I'm looking at that rune with such a surprised/sceptical expression ^w^ I don't know if I've said it before, but Sofie isn't too convinced that they actually work. She wants to believe in magic, but she's a little too insecure to put any trust in it.
I'm amazed with the dynamic you're managing to get into these pieces and how you keep them from getting too clustered with that many characters! :D

!!!!!!!!¡¡¡
this is so great oh gosh
Like, the whole picture's brilliant, but Jón's so *gawky* and *confused*, it's brilliant.
Diolch!

Also, definitely getting Hark! A Vagrant vibes from the art, which is also brilliant because it's , uh, brilliant. (I need new adjectives)

Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you liked it! ;D

Boo! ;D I finally finished my part of the art trade with FeartheViolas and in the process discovered that salt can be used to create pretty cool stars and things :D (it's seriously blowing my mind here  :o iz just too cool).
Anyways, this is supposed to be Sóley playing about with the demon cats in her dream realm (which I designed based on her answer on the personal dreamworld thread - no books sorry, I just couldn't think how to fit them into the picture without making it look weird, and the demon cats are slightly more insubstantial because erm.... reasons, dreamworld things.... pretty sure demon cats could do that if they wanted to.... right?). Hope you like it ^_^


This is so pretty! The sky and the trees are really well done!

I bring more drawings that aren't art trades (sorry)
i felt like drawing mage!haiz today but not feeling like putting much effort into anything


I drew over a non-serious selfie, but I was listening to this on repeat so it turned into a serious draw
(also it was fun and I might mageify other selfies later......)


and here is a drawing dedicated to Karri's floff

(we're looking for lost civilizations)

Hahaha, this is brilliant!!
Mage selfies are the next big thing then?

Thank you!!

Aaahh, I think I already ran out of things to say without repeating myself, but this is beautiful and dynamic and all that. Amazing job!

And is that a bad thing that now I have "I Believe I Can Fly" stuck in my head

thank you! and yes. karri's hair went from "next-gen hair" to FLOOMFPOCALYPSE BEHEMOTH

and as far as I know, Emil's a scout-if-need-be. It'd be really cool to see you make him do parkour tho hahaha

OH ANd the new draw is really cool as always


[narcissist mode] aaaaAAAAAAAA?? YOU USED MY DRAW AS A REACTION IMAGE THIS IS MY ONLY GOAL IN LIFE I HAVE ACHIEVED THE HIGH POINT IN MY CAREER [/narcissist mode]
YES BECAUSE IT'S SUCH AN ACCURATE HAIZ POSE

Mage selfies are the next big thing then?

This took honestly about 3 minutes to load thanks to broken computer and leftover, really really slow wifi dongle, but it was hella worth it.

It's great, thank you so much!! Worth the wait, I'd say. And I love the idea of making apple pies, I'm adopting that idea right now and expanding my business to include beekeping!
