Last year I entered with the CTF map "Tactical Assault" which received 9th place, so hopefully I will do better this time, especially since I won't be moving. :p

It'll be a TDM / FFA map this time around, and will be entitled "Aquamarine". Can you guess what it could be? Stay tuned to find out!

Anyways here is a lineart of Sanae Kochiya from Touhou, as I promised to deliver. A lot of work was spent in getting the heads to the correct proportions (I seem to make heads too elongated for some reason) and making the fingers / toes look right.

I should be getting Sanae Kocihya (Le Serpent Serenissime) up soon as well, the sketch is still lying somewhere waiting to be scanned and traced.

If you are reading this and know of some other good groups for aspiring artists to submit works to and gain comments and views, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

As you can see I got a few more works planned. One is a chibi version of the well-known Dragonborn warrior from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and the next is a Touhou artwork featuring "Good Girl" Sanae Kochiya. Although I seriously have doubts about the good girl part...

It's actually not as hard to draw dragons as one may think, although the heads were no simple task - having to adapt to drawing the lengthened jaws is easier said than done.

By the way, if you have any suggestions or requests for drawings, don't hesitate to ask. If I get good enough, I may start doing commissions. But I need your feedback and advice, so throw it at me if you have the time! Thank you.

I noticed that I'm getting a lot more views thanks to the artwork. I received a particularly high amount of visitors the day Stellar Polaris was posted. Seeing as it's becoming a popularity amongst visitors, I'll definitely keep up this hobby. Don't think I forgot about level design occupations, though. Which reminds me, the next Maverick competition ought to be announced soon...

I used the thinnest line size provided by SAI so that it's more easily adjustable later on - not too mention less cartoony.

]]><![CDATA[Stellar Polaris Finished]]>Sat, 24 Mar 2012 01:19:20 -0800http://emeraldproductions.weebly.com/1/post/2012/03/stellar-polaris-finished.htmlI finally got Stellar Polaris done. Check it out in the Artwork section in 2012 --> "Stellar Polaris".
]]><![CDATA[Stellar Polaris Lineart]]>Fri, 23 Mar 2012 02:31:23 -0800http://emeraldproductions.weebly.com/1/post/2012/03/stellar-polaris-lineart.htmlI found this neat program called Paint Tool SAI, which I hear is very popular amongst anime / manga style artists due to it's ease of use and authentic results. I gave it a try and wow! I've been looking for a good tool to make clean linearts, and this is just what I needed. The entire image is not finished yet obviously, and as you can see Polaris appears to be holding nothing - that is because it is supposed to be a lightsaber-like object, and it might be more convenient to use effects for that later than build it out of line art and have it cross over things. I may even put up the original hand-drawn picture if people are interested. Anyways, enjoy!
