Used a reference picture, but I changed some of the details. I am finaly glad to be finished with this one, it did take me a while but not as long as the timer says. Sometimes you don't realize how much detail there is in a picture.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. So true. I really like this one - she is absolutely snarling and looks totally pissed. It has alot of depth, too. Good job!

emmamommalag (Jul 1, 2004)

Love that snarl! Good job, longway.

davincipoppalag (Jul 2, 2004)

Oooh great surly sneer!

yes, he does look scary....but at the same time... sexy? haha.

I like the background a lot. Seems to have a lot of texture. Is he somewhere in the depths of hell? OoO

Pretty good pic, Mazi. I like his horns and color.
What happened to your 'pretty ladeh' picture? I was looking through your gallery and thought it was very good so I was going to comment on it, but it says it can't be found.

very good likeness, I knew who it was immediately. Where's Huggy (if I remember his name properly)?

laurael (Jul 1, 2004)

Thanks so much all of you for your comments.
D & D...Yeah, lol, 'Hutch' is the reason I was cussing at this one and why I said...'I'm trying and that this was not easy. I think I spent at least a good three hours on 'him' and he still isn't quite right. Some faces totally allude me...blah... :p
THUG...You thought the same thing I did when I saw this pic. I had been thinking of adding Huggy, but ended up scrapping that idea when 'Hutch' took so long to do... :)

Aubrey (Jul 2, 2004)

I like it alot.. looks like a picture out of a magazine :)

Knockoff (Jul 4, 2004)

Wow. I think this is great Laurael.
The colors and detail are very nice. Don't worry, you did a nice job. ;)

sharp

thug (Jun 30, 2004)

I was playing with the sharp tool and thought this turned out kind of interesting.

I agree... the colors are cool, the shape outside the big face looks like a fingerprint

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Jun 30, 2004)

yeah, reeeeally interesting. I never could get it to do anything significant. This is pretty cool, though.

davincipoppalag (Jul 1, 2004)

It kinda does look like a fingerprint. I can't see anything that sharpening tool does , I must be retarded. It never does a thing when I try it.

laurael (Jul 1, 2004)

Yes, very interesting effects...it also sort of looks like two faces floating in water. :)

This is much better than animation cell quality. The shading in animation ('cell shading') is usually limited to two or three distinct shades per color. I think the kind of shading here is called 'gradient,' and to produce an animation where every frame was shaded to this kind of gradient quality would be an utterly insane undertaking. The shading in Disney movies is better than most, but still not this quality.

As for Disney itself, I have no doubt ED could get a job there. But unless you're 'the best of the best', you'll end up doing little more than drawing repetitive frames of someone else's characters to smooth out the work of the lead animators, and might not even get your name in the credits. Additionally, while working for Disney, any artwork you produce, even at home with your own utensils, belongs to Disney. I would hate for ED to work where her art would go unappreciated.

EverDream (Jul 2, 2004)

Thank you for your support Zack. I've considered working for the Disney companies long ago, but the idea of sitting constantly and repeating drawings of something someone else came up with just didn't appeal to me. You don't even get to colour them you know? Any wayz I'm shooting for one of three things, either becoming a digital illustrator, a game character designer, or tatoo artist. :D

Aubrey (Jul 2, 2004)

I like the lighting and you did the shadows of it really well! The colors are great too :-D Another great picture by Everdream.
