I've had bad experiences, and it's better to be safe then sorry, right? XD And also, I like to show people how I draw things, because some people have requested over the months how I dar them, so I though I'd show them a little. XD Thanks for he comments, though. I think the sketchyness of the picture starts when I started shading, I rarely do shading on my anime pictures ..this is my second one so far). Also, my scanner catches things really badly and makes the quality really dodgy x.x But I can live with that XD tenshi-chan

XD I don't mind, it looks nice, I love the color choices. How did you get the vein-effect on the wings? o.o I was planning on outlining (inking, whatever you want to call it) anyways, and coloring it. Either that, or I'll pixel it up. Although my pixelling skills are a bit shabby from not pixelling for a long, long time XD Still, you can't have everything. tenshi-chan

Soul of an Angel - Metallic Angel Chapter four has already been totally completed, but I will be releasing it slowly as not to swamp my (if I have any o_o) readers. ^^ Pointing out CC and any spelling mistakes I may have made would be a great help for me ^^ Thanks! Now, Enjoy, ladies and gentleman. Chapter one Part one - Hikari Raymonde Landon was walking home from a boring day at school with a rowdy group of friends when he saw a flash of light out of the corner of his eye. His head swiveled around and he blinked a few times. There was nothing amongst the sky which was starting to fill with dark, grey, storm clouds. As he stared up at the sky, one fat rain drop fell from the sky onto his nose. He blinked in surprise as more and more raindrops fell. He heard the girls shriek and they all started flicking water at each other. Landon caught a faceful of water that Amber had flicked at him. He looked up in the direction the water came from and he saw her grinning at him. He cast her a quick fleeting smile then ran at her, scooping up some water as he ran. "I'm gonna get you for that!" She grinned again and ran away from him, her long, brown hair flying out behind her, drenched in rain. Landon kept running and he heard his other friends teasing him in a friendly manner. "C'mon Landon, you can't be beaten by a girl! Get her!" They hooted with laughter and Landon grinned at them, then ran faster then ever. He was so close to getting her when he saw a flash of light again, he faltered and stared at the stormy afternoon sky. He shook his head violently and water sprayed out in an arc from his hair, pelting Amber with water. "Whoa, he got her. Go Landon!" His friends were yelling again. He took another look at the sky, found it bare of lights again, and dismissed it from his mind. He thought that it must've just been a shooting star, or something else. Landon had completely forgotten about the bright light by the next day. All the students from class 12A were lazing around in the classroom and talking to each other, many gazing at the door in anticipation, for a new girl was coming into class today. The tables were arranged in neat rows, with a gap on all four sides of the desk to give the teachers and students easy access to all areas of the room. Landon was sitting in the corner, by himself, staring out the window and daydreaming when an image of a pair of wings flashed in his mind's eye. He sat up with a jolt and knocked the desk over. Everyone turned to stare at him and he felt the blood rush to his face. Thankfully the teacher arrived at this point and he was spared the embarrassment of explaining what had happened. As he picked up his desk, the teacher started to talk. "Good morning everyone! Today, as you know, we have a new student in the class! Now sit, and we can begin!" Miss Roanne beamed widely at the class and everyone hurriedly sat down in their seats. As Miss Roanne took the attendance, everyone was looking intently at the door occasionally whispering to each other, waiting for the moment where the door would open and admit the new student. Landon was not as interested, as his mind was puzzling over the vision he had just had. He stared at the etchings in the table in front of him intently, still thinking, when there was a knock at the door. Everyone jumped and Miss Roanne hurried over to the door and opened it. Landon heard the sound of the teacher's heeled shoes tapping across the ground, followed by a shuffling. He looked up and his heart jumped. In front of his eyes was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen, she had long dark hair which flowed to just below her waist line. She was looked straight ahead, shuffling her feet and looking small and fragile under her too-large jumper. She gazed at the staring faces of everyone around her, then looked directly into Landon's eyes. The girl's eyes were a grey blue colour, like the sky on a cold winter's day. The moment their eyes met, Landon flushed red and looked away. The girl looked puzzled for a moment then stared blankly into space. Landon could hear the excited mutters of his friends around him. He heard snatches of conversation. "She's so cute! I wonder what her name is - and where she came from too." The murmur of talk abruptly stopped when the girl started talking. Her voice was smooth and calming, but it seemed that she wasn't very good at speaking. "Me am called Hikari. Hikari Raymonde." Hikari, Landon thought, what a beautiful name. He felt the hot flush of his face ebb away and he turned to face Hikari again. She was answering some questions from the class, keeping the sentences short and stumbling over some words. "Me do not know where I came from. Me do not know how old me am." Her grey eyes darkened for a moment, but the look was gone in a flash, leaving Landon wondering if it ever happened. There were dubious glances thrown around the room when she had said that sentence. "Now, now, everyone, Hikari doesn't want to tell you, so stop looking at each other like that." She winked at them and there was a ripple of subdued laughter throughout the class. "Now, I would like someone to show Hikari around, and teach her a few rules of the school. Any volunteers?" All the boys in the class put their hands up eagerly, and Lilithe and her two friends frowned in disdain. Landon was the only boy not to put his hand up, he thought he was too flustered to do anything at the moment. Miss Roanne looked at the sea of hands in front of her, and gazed around till her eyes sat on Landon. The moment she looked at him, he knew he was going to be chosen. "Landon, could you please show Hikari around?" He dropped his gaze to the table and nodded. The other boys who had volunteered cheered to Landon. "Have fun Landon." One of them called, and he flashed a grin at them. As he stepped out from behind his table and gathered his books, he looked up and found himself looking into Hikari's eyes again. They enraptured him and he could not look away. After what felt like an age (even though it was only a few seconds), he tore his eyes away and dropped his books. As he bent to pick them up he blushed furiously and felt like kicking himself. Chapter one Part two - Hikari Raymonde After Landon managed to gather his thoughts together, he and Hikari exited the classroom, with Hikari walking first, then Landon following her. There was silence for a while and then he walked up beside Hikari. ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¢â¬ÅThis way, then. IÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ll show you our school library.ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬ÃâÃ

:P Celestial Angel was made basically in the same style as all the others except for the anime "Season's Greetings" one. o.o The pictures for the first two rounds of the Christmas Tournament were pretty horrible, 'cause I had no arty-ness in me on those days. Thanks a bunch for all the ocmments..keep the coming!! tenshi-chan

Aha! Well, it's not quite pixelled yet, just sketched. I'll be pixelling it some other time (maybe) if I can be bothered. o.o I scanned my progress as I went along, so you can see how I drew it. XD For those of you who think this is "porn" or something else sinister, I will personally come and poke you in the face @____@ (kidding...) I didn't shade the wings on the picture, 'cause they would basically just be pitch black. It was originally going to be a female verison of a black demon, but they don't really look very human and they don't have hair I'm pretty sure :P The shading is really dodgy beacuse I only used a hb pencil, so the range wasn't exactly that good. CC and all that jazz please =D Here we go: Stage 1- Stage 2- Stage 3- Stage 4- tenshi-chan

I love you too :P tenshi-chan [i really hate it when people subtly try to imply that I plagiarise.]

Wow, I feel so insanely honoured x.x I me being called a sensei? No way! XD I'm gonna attempt to keep improving, although I really should go back to pixelling like I used to...it seems to be a big craze here. o.o I shall conform and also make pixel stuff! XD (not likely...but anyways) Thanks for your comments, I would help anyone if they wanted me to help and asked nicely n_n tenshi-chan

I did that today :P Off Topic's fun died just that tiny (big) bit for me and the graphics board doesn't get that much attention :P It's great to see you (kind of) again XD When I saw GreatSilverWyrm's name in greeen on the topic viewing list I was like ":o I remember him!" I have no idea, I was reading Eldin's info before, and I saw he/she was also from melbourne XD "3/10 nice sig" comments make me want to crawl out of my skin and scream my head off o.o That's why I do the total opposite and throw up CC for people :x Um, I can't really CC anymore. Sorry for being horribly OffTopic =P tenshi-chan

I do not agree with you on your statement that "does get slightly un-nerving when those who are not so great at pixel or those who do not pixel post". In my opinion, sometimes someone who doesn't do picel work is better for rating pictures such as this, as they give un-biased (meaning, not knowing how hard it is and all) views on how good the picture actually is, instead of just how hard it might have been to make it. Overall, the whole image isn't the best in the world, but I'm not just saying this, here are the reasons: Proportions -The proportions of the humans are totally wrong and out of size. On both humans the size and length of their arms is much, much to short and it should be extended at least almost half the length of the existing arm. -They have absoultely no neck. -The girl's breats seem way too big for her body, and the dark line in her skin just above the hand seems to suggest it goe sup that high, which is way to high -Th arms are distorted not only in length but also width-wise. They both seem to differ from the other -There are lots of problems with the proportions, I can't really name them all. It's relatively good though ^^ -A pointer for next time, if you don't know the proportions of the body that well, or even if you are a tiny bit unsure, go stand in front of a mirror and study your proportions in relation to eachother, and it will make things a whole lot easier. Overall -Shading in most areas is 2-tonal, one for the base color, on for the shading. That's not really enough, the more shades of a color you have, the better it usually looks -Keep the outlineing consistant, usually. If you're going ot outline a picture with a darker color, keep it that way. -Anti-Alias the lines and shading more. Meaning, make them not look so jagged by manually anti-aliasing them in paint or whatever program you use. I love the wolf, though. The only tproblem I see with that is that the pinky-grey color of the outlinging of some of the fur doesn't suit it. Other then that, it's very nice =D Good Job, Congrats that you got 2 mil on that. ^^ tenshi-chan

With the Christmas Tournament pictures, the pieces I made are definitely lacking, but that is because of the lack of time we had and the strict guidelines we were given. There wasn't ad much room for personal interpretation (well, there was room, but not a much. I have no clue how to draw wings in adobe without actually resorting to painting them, which isn't what that piece was about in my opinion. ^^ There actually is no focus area in Ethereal Solaris beause it is just the extraction of the background of Ethereal Angel, in which the "Angel" is the focus of attention (that or his wings and halo) Thanks for your comment...I reall, really appreciate it. Keep them coming! tenshi-chan

The "Season's Greetings" picture, I drew everything. However, the elf on "Celestial Angel" was created by someone else, although I lost the link to the stock image :? tenshi-chan

Geocities doesn't always allow for hotlinking, so I suggest you use Photobucket.com or Imageshack.us to uploadand use them for your signature ^^ [img=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v115/tenshibi/nightwishsig.jpg] Overall, I love the colors, they're nice and vibrant, but I would blend the person into it a little more, but that's the style that I like, so you may think otherwise . Also, I think that having a border on every signature makes it look better overall, so slap a border on it and it'll be even better then it is now, tenshi-chan :lol:

I've showed both versions (head and then silhouette) and they say the silhouette seems to fi tin more Thanks for your comment 8) tenshi-chan

Well, I'm new to these boards, and I tend to stick to the graphics-side of Runescape boards for some reason, so I thought I might as well post my most recent work. Done in Adobe photoshop. CC and rating please :D I'm always wanting to make my work better [Ethereal Angel] There is an actual "head" which fits on that, but it was made for someone special and he'd rather I not show his face, so I just put a silhouette instead. That covers most of the work, so I'll also post the verison without the wings or the person. [Ethereal Solace] These next few were made for a christmas graphics tournament. :P Round 1- Round 2- Round 3- Round 4- Final Round- tenshi-chan
