That's better. . .
Jun. 29th, 2007 06:25 pmOkay, 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!

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.

Date: 2007-06-29 11:37 pm (UTC)...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?

(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!)

By the way

Date: 2007-06-30 02:54 am (UTC)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 >_>))

Date: 2007-06-30 03:00 am (UTC)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?

Date: 2007-06-30 03:07 am (UTC)Your local stores don't sell comic book paper to feed on the hordes of art students? Shame on them! I understand why my school might not have an art store practically opened inside of it, but you're school has more, you know, talent.
(I noticed Canson just released a line of comic products under the name "Fanboy." They have comic paper in two sizes, I think, with the non photo blue guidelines, as well as paper for cover illustrations with guidelines for where the title graphic and barcode should go. They also have really pointless things with "manga" slapped onto it, like a "manga sketch pad" which is just a regular ol' sketchbook, so it's not just whatever brand it is that normally sells the comic book paper anymore in the stores now. You know, the one in the plastic wrap... Maybe that one was Blue Line).

Date: 2007-06-30 03:32 am (UTC)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*

Date: 2007-06-30 04:33 am (UTC)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* ^______________________^

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

Date: 2007-06-30 05:42 am (UTC)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. ♥ ♥

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

Date: 2007-06-30 09:59 am (UTC)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!!!

Date: 2007-06-30 11:08 am (UTC)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
