out of procrastination, a Japanese gothic-glam rock star is born (albeit a rather tame, sorta nerdy one).

p.s. are they called gothic-glam rockers, or do they just fall under the j-pop catagory? oh well...

edit: its not quite finished. i wanna add more definition in the face and do a few more things, but when i try to revise it the bar in the little loading box will get right to the end and freeze. apparently i can't work on it. i'll keep trying for a few days, then i'll just set it to finished. blah...

edit 2: well, it won't let me finish, so i am setting to finished now.

Kuiku Shyato kana XD?That's a cool drawing you did there.I like the hair and the eyes the most :).The shirt can use a little more smoothness, maybe, because the face is all smooth and all of a sudden it kinda clashes with the roughness there.But besides that, I think it works pretty well^^.I like how you did the nose too, it seems as if you could almost feel it.

I like how you did the hair and eyes.. a very interesting face

tappie_chan (Apr 12, 2004)

well thanks Gigandas for the suggestion. i'll definitely take it if i can ever revise it...

p.s thanks for the compliment davincipoppalaq ^______^ (whew that name is long!)

I really like the eyes and the shirt, it almost looks like crushed velvet.

Oh poop..what is this style called...I know it was made popular by X-japan, Malice Mizer and Dir en Grey...You could see it a lot in Kyoto and Tokyo when I went. Whats really weird too....Most of the guys who dress like this look strangely...attractive...I guess just look at a Dir en grey website. VERY nice image tappie ^_^

Beautiful and very, very shiny...I love shiny. Great pic tappie. :)

bumpinthenight (May 26, 2004)

very nice.... The sparseness of the majority of the picture coupled with the cool shades of the hair really works well... :)

Wow...this is really amazing. I especially like the shine of the hair and lips (random, I know, but still...) My only word of advice is the hairline/eyebrow look a little pixely (if you know what I'm even talking about) But overall this is a really fantastic picture.

Its an odd drawing (that doesnt mean its bad ^-^)

You know better what you were thinking about, but in any case its a good job
