I have to ask since I think someone else said it: what is cubism? I am guessing it is something to with drawing things in square form when it isn't meant to be or something? I never meant to do that if I managed ~ Laughs ~ I was trying for photocopier but it didn't work ~ Curses ~ but yea is cubism a good thing?
Oh wow and totally awesome on you taking a portrait pic for me, could you smile for it, and maybe look thoughtful like about your next art project or something? I like having stories behind pictures ~ nods ~ That would be so amazing, I shall very much look forward to that project in the future ~ Dances around ~ Though I will have to do it perfectly, can't draw my worst critic badly, that would ruin my reputation lol XD XD
Thanks again though, and it is surprising to learn you take the commenting seriously, must be the tellings off in the past lol. I have really come to value your words though, especially with this piece ~ Hugs ~ many thanks XD
I hope you have an amazing weekend and shall look forward to the grand unveiling of your fb account sometime in the (near) future :)
Worse picture!!!!
No way ,this one even a learning picture for me,as I haven't seen a cubism realistic style in this site.Well I really take the commenting at your art as one of my fav things to comment and a big responsibility .I know that I could have caused the start of your pictures and it's a big influence thus ,to the universe :3.
Haha big hugs to you as well(*hugs) .I was very happy to make you happy with the comment. Believe it or not that picture really haves something especial on it.Well it's true that eyes are hard,they are called the mirror of the soul for one reason.In the eyes you can see all the personality of a character,so capturing that will be the biggest challenge (*nods head).
Haha I really need to take a decent picture of me for the portrait.Of couse I would be honored to be captured by you(felt like a pokemon there).Okok gona take a nice picture and then finally gona open my secret acc haha(very soon)!
Yep I seem to be drawn to older guys, especially older guys with long hair ~ Laughs and shakes head ~ It is insanity, that said I did choose this guy because he looked like Magnus so I think I can be let off for using them almost as the same person ~ Grins at you in what I hope is a convincing way ~ Yea that works right ~ Coughs ~ Anyway....
The angle is indeed sideways and slightly down and also in the darkness ~ Sighs ~ I hate pictures in darkness, it is far easier to shade light, you just leave it alone ~ Laughs ~
I agree on the lips being harder than noses thing, I can't stand lips. They are there but not there ~ Raises eyebrow ~ So evil, noses tend to all look the same, get one you get all, but lips are so different ~ Sighs ~
I love your thought process when you submit things, I was totally the same, terrified of how this would be received ~ Shakes head ~ It took me two days and some tiredness to get the courage to come here, that sucks ~ Laughs ~ Thanks for this though, are you planning on submitting any art any time soon? I think I subbed you but haven't seen anything...I shall have to check that ~ Pokes memory ~ It sucks.
Awww ~ Monster hugs you again ~ God my hands are almost shaking from reading these comments ~ Shakes head ~ It took a bucket load of courage to come here and read these, I think I was inspired by reading your post first and what you said about my writing, backwards I know but it works in its own little way ~ Winks and hugs ~
That concert you sent with that fan is the reason I finished this. I really didn't have anything else to do while sitting on the window sill listening to it ~ Laughs ~ I owe you one for that...want me to try and blow anything over there for you? ~ Hugs ~
Damn theO for hiding what you said ~ Tries to remember but has images of fans and concerts taking up my brainpower now ~ Wait you mentioned fangirling, I love reading you fangirling over T-Bear, and visa versa now I can see him speak on occasions (he should speak more, tell him that lol). I actually missed fangirling, I keep it so under wraps these days that letting it out is a release ~ laughs ~ It is definitely a reason I was scared to come here ~ Sighs ~ Pictures that mean a lot make me scared of the comments ~ Hugs again ~ Seriously though I loved reading this and many thanks. I can't wait to see what your next amazing creation is going to be.
I hope work is treating you well and look forward to hearing all about it when you are free at the weekend, just one more day to go Gakusei ~ massages your shoulders ~ You can do it XD

PS: Having read the comment again I noticed a question (yep I liked it that much ~ Blushes ~) I draw on normal A4 sized printer paper. I have considered the idea of drawing on A3 since I do have some, but it would take too long so I am reserving that for when I am better and am going to tackle something bigger. Oddly enough the only A3 things I can think of will be for my mum and they will come under too much scrutiny for me to work on them yet, I need to get better ~ Hugs ~ That and scanning would be a right pain, my scanner is A4 lol Oh and the looking real comment made my day since at is the ultimate goal, domo arigato Gakusei
XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD

If I was not already sat down I would have fallen down ~ Laughs and shakes head ~ Seriously, honestly I though this was worse than a picture I did a year plus ago of Capri-Chan ~ Stares ~ I was in two mind submitting it and then it took until now to come here because I was anxious of what would be said (especially by you because your opinion really matters to me) so reading this is just...wow ~ Leaps on you and monster hugs ~ Domo arigato tonnes Angel, that really means a lot. I hadn't even thought to compare this to Wolverine, though I do like that one for the leather shading. I hated the face though ~ Eyebrow twitches ~ damned shading over his eyes. That was another where eyes caused problems because of their oddness ~ Sighs ~ I definitely need to work on that.
But seriously, thanks for this ~ Hugs ~ Maybe when I see what you look like I could draw you ne? ~ Winks ~ I like drawing the people I know ~ Spins ~ I wouldn't say it was you if you didn't want me to though, I will pretend I err stopped a stranger in the street or something lol XD
It's very very good,by far your best portrait of all,well maybe not better than Wolverine but this one is really nice.I see you used a bit of a cubism style and it really worked well.Nice detail at the eyes and at the proportions,it's really a good one.
Donno how you got so good in so short time but keep up the great work.The hair is also great,this one is just full of details.
I'm really liking the angular style in the drawing, his eyes even have a little anime-ish flare to it ^^ ah, I know how it feels to submit a piece, you get nervous on how it'll be recieved, I'm always like, "Hope it works, omg omg hope ppl like it and it doesn't suck." XD no one's perfect, but it doesn't hurt to improve ^.^ I don't know who Dyson Frost is. Not bad looking tho :P
I hate drawing lips too, actually. lol. I don't know, they're just... you have to have a certain soft touch to draw them.. they're hard, harder than noses in my opinion. I hate drawing hair though, lol, glad you had fun with that.
It's always hard to estimate the time of drawings, you get so into them and then you lose track.. haha it's fun.
Oooh, very cool, Steph! He's pretty good looking for an older guy. ;3 You seem to have a thing for older men! Nothing wrong with that! XD I do like his hair as well. You drew it really well~~ Indeed, it's tough drawing people from certain angles...especially the side...and this angle you drew him at is like side plus from underneath a little. Really hard to do, but you did it well!! :) Great job~
