Love the outfit

[Ilmatar]

I second that! The outfit is really pretty, and so are the wings!

You know what, Menelanna, I think your skills have developed a lot in a short time. It's fantastic to see how you get better and better every week.

[Menelanna]

Thanks but, I just actaully took more time to do it this week. The more time I spend on one of my pieces the better it comes out.
And something I noticed here...why did pretty much everyone put Solar in a Greek toga? I am guilty of it too. What is with angelic beings and togas?

[WeeRLegion]

Hellenism, the source of civilized deities.

I'd venture a guess that early church-art borrowed the togas for the saints and angels from the clothing used at the time and place, but since painted icons and windows last longer than pieces of cloth, the designs now remain as an vestige from earlier times, solely connected to the context they are found at these days.
I never could imagine a HOLY angel in jeans, seriously.



Oh, and I like the piece! ;D
The wings especially, they're really feathery. The color really does it there I think, really nice, thumbs up.

[Menelanna]

that makes senes.

and thanks for the comment. I do love drawing things with wings, even if the do take me FOREVER.

[Rabain]

Did this quickly...still learning. I don't do the human form very well...

[berelinde]

Looks great to me!

Finally, a solar that appeals to me!

[Ilmatar]

Solar clearly got the girdle of sex change! Good job, though, Rabain! Thanks for participating!

A toga is just lots of fun. One of my characters currently runs around in them too (okay, that is basically because someone took all her stuff, including the spiffy naval uniform she stole from the burning marine warehouse with the explosives [she didn't set it on fire, no], as well as the cool black and gold leather dress and the lovely blue and white Kimono. Basically they took all her stuff. Now she's gotting back even more high level stuff, but she had to switch to wearing a toga.).

Ah, then you obviously don't know the comic "Fallen" by Aido. Then again, Faustus might be an angel, but I don't know if you can call him a "holy" angel, considering his area of work before he landed where he is now (we don't know what really happened, yet). Now he is a pretty gothy guy. Naturally black hair, black shirt, and jeans.

If you want to know what he did before, then highlight here:

Spoiler

He was the Angel of Death.

I love it! Great colouring, and great drawing.

Only one thing irks me. Her head is a bit too flat on the top. That's a common mistake, and even I make it sometimes. This is just meant as friendly constructive criticism.

Nonetheless, I love it! You've done a killing job on those wings. I wish I could draw feathery wings like that.

So, finally I tried to draw something too. tadaa my Solar. No colour, because colouring ruins everything I draw. And I too love togas

Wow, Riane, she's wonderful! Looks really human, in a way, but that's not a bad thing.

Glad to see you participating too, thanks.

Also Neferit - Smurfette-Solar will be counted to the statistics, even though it's not exactly original, but the evil thinking behind is worth it. Fantastic!

Heh... evil thinking ? I'm still learning it But the nearing (and now ended ) International Sigil Meeting evocates such thoughts like Smurf-Solar

[Riane]

As an absolute Smurf-fan (though I like the german Schlumpf better) I can only say, that I love your Smurfette-Solar. Maybe she's Solars lost daughter...

[vilkacis]

OMGWTF! Manly!solar! A solar who distinctly differs from the annoying bitch AHEM lovely lady who annoys the hell out of me AHEM guides our steps in ToB! I saw that and knew I had to steal the idea. (Sry! )



...yeah yeah, adjdskdskd, I know, "work on your anatomy/shading/what the hell am I saying, work on EVERYTHING". But hey, at least it's a solar. Or something.

(And the bottle says "booze" and it's indeed 120% proof. Hey, it's magic. Besides, celestials won't get drunk on anything less. The bastards.)

Grrreat!

He should have laundry drying on the halo though.

Yup, Smurfs are good! I loved them when I was younger; in Czech they are called ?moulové

Heh, vilkasis, you reminded me of this -> .

That angel looks sooo like your Solar )) (btw, the texts in bubbles is - "The God doesn't exist." and "OK, sorry.")

Hi people! I found this section of the forums earlier today, spent quite a bit of time looking through the fanart entries, and despite not having played ToB I thought I'd give this one a crack. Pencils aren't liking me at the moment so I went back to my old method of pixel-art, dolling. I got the look (hair style and clothes, mainly) from other entries, so apart from the toga I hope I'm not -too- far off.



Base from iflookscouldkill.org which doesn't seem to be going anymore and wing tutorial (which I changed a bit) from here.

[Galsic]

Wait for me, wait for me !

Sooo, anyhoo, I'd like to make a few comments about my entry here. First, I'm not wholly satisfied with the face; I've done better (I partly blame the size of the drawing...partly). Second, I didn't quite know what I was doing with the see-through clothing or the wings, but all things considered, they could be worse. Whatevah, I'm just glad I had the time to try some new things and do something decent for a change .
