While on the unfortunate topic of stolen art, I suppose I’ll go ahead and ask a 4th of July favor. If you see fireworks with Lackadaisy art on the packaging, please don’t buy it. The art is stolen - no less than 7 different paintings. I’ve known about this for about a year, but so far all attempts…
Lackadaisy Flimflam: Art Theft...
idle3re8u5 asked: I'm not sure if you ever saw my response to when you claimed that you were doing more bookmarks for DP. I vomited rainbows when I saw that message.
Haha! No, I didn’t see your response! I don’t know where I’d have to go to check for that, I’m afraid D:
I actually made all of the coffee fortunes as bookmarks, though I’ve recently found out that I missed out on making one of the fortunes, which was the very first one you get! Fortunately Agent York has more than enough suits for me to pick from.
I’m thinking I should post all of the bookmarks here on tumblr :)
But now that its the weekend…. I can finally relax and work on commissions to mail out ;D
I had to turn down two commissions at Fanime because I don’t play League of Legends…. what the fuck D: I guess I need to play League of Legends now.
I do not have time :( Have you SEEN my stack of backlog games??? :( :( :( Its not even counting my Steam library! AUUUUGHGHHHHHGHHG
(( .7. Went to the artist alley at Fanime and got this really cool pic commissioned at table 160.)
You should really check out his art and webcomic *v* It’s really nice.
This was my first commission for Fanime! I’m pretty proud of it :D Put in way too much time into that linework, though, lol….
(I don’t understand what that strikethrough means D: )
Time Fiddler - Chapter 0, Page 1
This is a comic that I’ve been working on for a while. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do in making it :)
This is a story about a girl named Sam, and how she became a time traveler.
Yes. I am finally uploading my comic online. Its official now.
D:
My last print is finished in time to print for Fanime x_x Augh. For the coloring of it, I went into it with the thought of impressionism. Whether or not that was achieved… not even arguable that its even close XD But I do like it. Its different.
Lost Girl - Bo and Kenzi by ~Dark-Pen
My Lost Girl print for Fanime in just a week! Be sure to drop by table 160 :D
Saying that people of color cannot show any visible blushing is a big fat myth that only proves how little people actually know about skin tones.
I have seen a lot of skin-tone palettes that includes dark skin, but it is very rarely put in use as examples. And many times I’ve found them to only appear monochrome, while darker skin tones are just as rich in tone variation as fair skin.
And just to be extra nice, I even added the basic colors I used in these two examples. A big protip is to start with the darkest tone as a base and then work to light tones. Use the highlights sparingly, they should not be large but more like small spots. Dark skin is more “reflective”, meaning small highlights pop out more than on lighter skin tones.
I made this set mainly for all the anime artists out there who probably would love to color more poc characters but don’t really know if it’d work out as kawaii as their usual stuff.
News flash: it’s drop-dead super kawaii in all skin tones<3
nice quick guide :D
