Description

This is my part of an art trade with :iconri-zu: that was started in july last year. I finished my part in august, but since then I´ve been waiting for Ri-zu to finish hers.*sigh*
Anyway, I didn´t want to wait any longer with uploading this, since this is the perfect oppurtunity to inform the part of my watchers, who didn´t watch my journals (shame on you!XD), but only my art, that there is now the rare chance to get free art or an art trade from/with dear old me.

So if you are interested, have a look here:
It`s request and art trade time :DHello guys! I recently noticed a significant drop of comments and favourites on my uploads. Well, it could be the problem some other artists around here have, too: that their watchers are no longer informed by dA about new pictures/polls/journals. dA is working on the problem, but just in case this is not the reason for the decreasing interest in my art I decided to do something about it, myself. Here it comes: I offer you guys the opportunity to get (free) art from me. There are two slots for requests and two for art trades available. You can apply for both, but you will only be able to get one slot in the end. If there are more applicants than slots, I´ll do a raffle. This way everyone has the same chance of getting something.:) Requests will be (coloured?) sketches, art trades fully coloured with background. Applicants for art trades must have at least a somewhat similar skill to mine, though. How to apply? Just comment on this journal which character you


As for the picture itself, it shows Phess, one of Ri-zus awesome characters. I loved his design the moment I laid eyes on him and since then wanted to draw him at any cost.X3
Well, the result is nothing like I had expected and I´m not that content with it, to be honest. But who knows, maybe I´ll draw him again someday and create him the tribute that he deserves.

Character reference can be found here:

Mostly done in Paint Tool SAI, (self-made!) magic circle and stars created with PS CS3

Ah... I just don't know where to start...
First of all, I'm very sorry you had to go ahead, coz I didn't do my part properly, like I supposed to. But I'm glad nonetheless I've got to see your part!
You probably noticed that I wasn't exactly active since last vacations. I don't want to explain myself, but the fact is I didn't draw, nothing at all as I had major art block. I just have bad timing with art trade and stuff.
You may think it's silly now, but I never ceased to intend to draw Sky for you. I will eventually. Still have the sketch I did back then.
I don't know what you think of me but I seriously hope there's no hard feelings.

On the picture now.

You cannot possibly know how big impact this picture have on me. To have one of my fav OC pictured so beautifully. The dynamic is so lovely, and the perspective! Must have been though. And the feathers are not so stiff looking, just how I draw them. They're lookin quite natural, especally the endings of the big wings. Love how you detailed them with light. I really like your idea too! The way he came through the magic portal ^^ And his expression!
You really draw him just like I would want anyone to do that. With care he deserves. Looks just perfect! :)
Thank you so much for you effort ^^Thank you, thank you! Made my day, honestly.
Well, night, to be exact ^^

And when I won't be this tired, I will comment on your other works ^^
