That's better. . .

[luco]

Okay, now I feel a little more normal ^____^

I'll be fine once I can get myself to draw Zoro, until then. . .

This is for everyone going through 'Legend' withdrawl! ((if anyone is??)) I give you one of the cover ideas I was thinking of. Opinions are welcome. This is just a quick grey-scale version to remind me later of what I want to do with it...so sorry about the quality.





Oh and you can thank Delmar for the pose. Without him I couldn't have done this...it's still not right, but hey, I'm getting better!

*laughs* Well, it is the first noticeable thing in the picture, so you're forgiven ^____^

congratulations, you got me to lick my computer screen. If this is the rough copy then you'll have to put a warning on the finished one saying CAUTION ILLEGALLY HOT MERSANJI! I AM NOT RESPONSABLE FOR ANY DAMAGED KEYBOARDS BECAUSE OF MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF DROOL!
But those hands(I have a strange love of hands) that face, that merbutt. His face is geogoues! This is sexy really really sexy darnit and I don't know why! Thankyou sooooooooooooooooo much Delmar. LOVE! And yes I was having withdrawal from Legends thankyou for this. *hugs trying not to get drool on you* I'll just go squeel over in that corner now.

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I take it he worked the way i wanted him to ^__^ Delmar will be most pleased to know that his lying around in an akward position for over 2 hours was worth it ^^;

[bronzetigress.livejournal.com]

... What onikotsu said. Except I haven't actually licked the screen yet. Yet. Thank you, Delmar! :)

...and why do you keep apologizing for the quality of these pictures? (curious) Is there a, like, technical resolution graphics-quality thing, or is it just the "I can/should/ought-to-be-able-to do better" thing? 'Cause, y'know. I really kinda like that greyscale effect. Colour is good, too, but there's something about these "quick sketches" that has its own appeal...

Also, if this is the greyscale of the (possible) cover art, it becomes, like, the flyleaf page, right? Right?

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I feel I should be able to give you guys better, I really do. But I do like my sketches and the rough grey-scale work but still....

I don't feel like I'm putting enough effort into it.

And this, may become many different things in the book ^___^ ((if it ever gets printed >_>))

[darthneko.livejournal.com]

O.O

Thank you Delmar indeed! That's awesome. I love the curve of his spine. Mew!

(and incidentally, congrats on having the gaia piece be on the first page of devart popular for the day! at least, it was when I last looked. Go you!)

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that area is my favourite ^___^

And it did? I didn't see it there when I skimmed through DA but i do know it's gotten the most hits in one day out of all my work so....I'm kinda proud of that ^__^ Thanks for telling me!

[mogumogu.livejournal.com]

Well! He's not as uptight as we thought he was...

So, what kind of paper is it that you use, anyway, and why can't you get it as of yet?

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he loosens up a bit once he gets to know you. . .

And I use Blue Line Comic Paper....I didn't have the money to order it, but when i posted about it a few weeks back two people ordered me small packs in exchange for art so I'm simply waiting for it to arrive ^___^

I can hunt the link to the paper if you're curious about it?

By the way

[onikotsu.livejournal.com]

Your package should be sent tommorrow.

Re: By the way

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

SQUEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

[ripfangdragon.livejournal.com]

OH GOD YES! FHAJGHAGHA MWAHAHAH

Thank you, Delmar! <33 You're a mad genius!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

He appreciates the love ^_____^

[mailechan.livejournal.com]

That is very, very, very, very, very pretty. I really like his hands and how his dorsal fin goes all the way down his spine.

Also, I really like how you did the sky. It looks slightly overcast, which is probably good for not drying out delicate merman skin.

*love, love, love*

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Yeah, wouldn't want to ruin his lovely skin. He'd be rather upset if I let that happen. . .

And his hands were a pain! I had to get my roomate to pose a few minutes for the hands and then fight with the sketches for a good while.

[obsidianne.livejournal.com]

Ahahahahaha. He sorta looks _playful_... ^^. With his ever present weed. Hee.

And yummy! Such beautiful drawing...mer-sanji's hands and the way he's resting on the flag.lol. I will never understand why you always apologize for such amazing pieces.

Once again, the utterly huge grin which will last the entire day. heh.

And thank you thank you for thinking about us, your fans.

*loves you to itty bits* ^______________________^

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

So i was right? People were missing Legend? ^_______^ Then I'm glad I could help out, because I was going through Legend withdrawl myself >_>

[dragovianknight.livejournal.com]

sorry about the quality

Don't make me thwap you.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go play with Sanji's lovely frilly dorsal fin.

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

. . .

You just sounded EXACTLY like one of my best friends. . .

I am rather amused ^___^

[travellyr.livejournal.com]

*jaw gapes*

Niiiiiiice. I want that weed Sanji's chewing on. I want to SUCK IT. And smack that lovely fish ass, make The Eyes at him when he turns on me, and snuggle his cold fishy self. o.o Hell, maybe lick him too.

THANK YOU DELMAR. ♥ ♥

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I think Sanji will appreciate that ^___^ He loves attention.....

Oh and Delmar says 'You're welcome'.

[the-shy-wolf.livejournal.com]

Oi! Delmar!
Thank you ♥ Thank you ♥ Thank you ♥ Thank you ♥ Thank you.

And Stop apologising for the quality, if this is bad, the good with probably blind with glory! Er...that sounded better in my head ^^;

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

*laughs* I understood it though ^___^ I'm glad you guys like!

[hii-chan.livejournal.com]

Oooh, Sanji butt ^.^
I do like the cover, but I was wondering if there was any reason why there is only Sanji on it and not Zoro as well...

Oh, and *I* am going through horrible Legend withdrawal!!!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Because I'm not quite ready to draw Zoro again. Hopefully soon, I have been doing my best to just try and sketch him after all. . .

But we shall see how it goes. This is still just an idea.

And it's nice to know I'm not the only one going through withdrawl ^__^

[xtranew.livejournal.com]

M-M-M-MERBUTT!!! AS LARGE AND LIVE AS IN LIVE?!?

Although I noticed that he will be having some 'technical' difficulty to -shacking up- with a certain moss head later. Because I'm sure the basic "put the tab A in slot B" thing should apply here too, XD!

A color version would be AWESOME! This wasn't meant that the grey scale version wasn't nice to droll on in the meantime though. :D

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I'm sure they'll figure something out ^________^ And they will get a little help sometime soon. . . .

And well, a colour version will hopefully happen one day soon. . .

[cosmiko.livejournal.com]

So much LOVE for this. Love Sanji's position and the angle. ♥ With the grey-scale version this good, I can't wait to see the coloured version!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

*preens* Awww, you guys know how to make a girl feel happy ^____^

[imagines.livejournal.com]

Oh, that is pretty. Sanji-bum! ♥

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I never expected so many comments on his bum, but I guess I should have since it's one of the first things you notice. . .

:)

[onikotsu.livejournal.com]

Package is now in the mail heading to you! Happy Early Birthday!!

Re: :)

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

*is all excited now*

[devlinnreiko.livejournal.com]

(stupid LJ update making me not able to comment)

Now that I can finally comment on this, this.is.amazing. I wanna pet him. I really, really enjoy the pose, and I love how the tail is partially hidden, and that amazing bum. :3 I like the background too.

Damn you Sanji for looking deliciously hot. Thank you Delmar. He should be rewarded. ^___^

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Delmar will indeed be rewardee! I'm just not sure how yet >_>. . .

Glad you liked though ^_^

[vampire-otaku.livejournal.com]

Legend withdrawl? Yes. But I'm a patient sort, as I imagine most of your fans are, so we'll wait eagerly for the next page to come to us whenever that might be. <3

Thank the heavens for Delmar. He deserves all kinds of internet cookies and love for this one, yes. X3 Although Sanji, having your ass in the air like that is just screaming for it to be smacked, haha. Or molested. This is the part where we bring Zoro in and... *innocent grin*

Even though it's just greyscale, it's still really nice! Great job!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

He's screaming for molestation I admit ^_____^ But really, Delmar just posed so beautifully and I had to try and draw and yeah.....also read all your other comments and I must admit I was thinking of you when I did the Ace one!

It is your fault I'm falling for him dammit!

[kala-aira.livejournal.com]

Mmmmm, yes this does help with my Legend withdrawl...very much so! That is one fine looking merman yes indeed!

Please thank Delmar for the fantastic posing, I hope he didn't cramp!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

He didn't cramp, although he was a little moody for sometime afterwards. . .

Oh! And the story you write me?

It inspired art dammit!

...

I just need to calm down a bit and then I'm going to try and draw it. But thank you for it. It said what I needed to hear. . .

[onnaevilsmith.livejournal.com]

*just looks over for a long pause*... Daaayyyuummmmm.. *points to him* I want a drawing of him. Mine.. yesh yesh X3

Verah lovely indeed. I still love how you draw his hips.. n for some reason his butt. I like his fishy butt.

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Give me an address to mail it to and it can be done ^____^

And his hips are fun....;even though I overdo them...just a bit. . .

[maldoror-gw.livejournal.com]

Hot damn that's nice to look at ^____^

And I have to admit it. This is the best work you have done!! Sanji looks sooooo real! You make Sanji looks like he is popped out of the picture! (and drags you on the beach and pppuuurrrrrr!!!)

5 stars!!!

(faint from the loss of blood)

[mirai-hajime.livejournal.com]

Oh my. I keep going back to look at him, and my brain shuts down everytime I do! May I lick him?
