Nice Drawing From Deviant Art

Post by hillerr » Tue Feb 09, 2010 10:44 pm

Very nice expression work. This scene did not appear in the movie though it was loosely in the book, though not specifically this scene. You'll see what I mean when you view it. I especially like the expression on Eli's face.

Uh, I was hoping I'd finally see Eli in that Iron Maiden shirt. :ugeek:

It's a nice work indeed, though.

I very much like that it looks more like Elias than Eli (or Lina for that matter).
...the story derives a lot of its appeal from its sense of despair and a darkness in which the love of Eli and Oskar seems to shine with a strange and disturbing light.

Hi, thanks for bringing some attention to my stuff.

Seeing it now with my usual self-bashing eyes I see its pretty sloppy in some places and the anatomy could use some work here and there. The background is pretty sloppy too but eh. It's good to be self critical like that! Keeps you wanting to try harder next time and improve. If you see anything that looks weird or wrong don't be afraid to tell me. I WANT you to point such stuff out. :)

But hey, nice comments such as the ones you gave me also makes me want to continue doing stuff, so thanks! ;)

Hmm, Iron maiden shirt. Did she wear that when they were in the basement? Can't recall exactly.

I believe she was wearing the Iron Maiden shirt when Oskar first arrived at her apartment. Then she changed into the checkered shirt that was too big for her.

Oh yes, I might post something I'm working on. Obviously a lot of stuff missing, like a fair share of gore and proper background.

My take on Eli in kick-ass mode moments before dragging up Oskar from the water. Weird made up wing and claw anatomy provided, which will probably be revised a little.

I really like how this looks so far. I wasn't keen on the JAL's gauzy membranes for wings idea, mostly because it would be boring to draw. Now that I've turned Oskar in my fan-fiction I'm eager to do a drawing of both of them flying, not sure which look to use in the drawings that go with my fanfic though as once I use it, I'll have to stick to it.
Your cool drawing may help me make my decision though! :)

Already my favorite Eli-with-wings drawing. Keep up the good work. ;)
