😮 That's incredible, Gypse!!!!!!
Actually, I think the slight tinge of green turned out adding a cool effect...y'know, what with the ocean and all.
(But I do remember that in order to make black paint look darker, they add a bit of blue to it. And an art teacher once told me that apparently the technical name for the color you get when you mix yellow and black is Mars Green. Not sure why it's called that, though, since Mars is red...)

Wow, Gypsy!! 😮 That's awesome. It looks really cool. 🙂 I love the color. Idk, it just seems to fit this kind of creature. 😀 Great job!

Set made by Hobbit. Thank you!

That greenish colour works pretty well, whatever your intentions! Pretty neat-o painting, gyps!

I did a handful of practice art commissions this spring/early summer, and this is by far the most time-consuming of them. He's from a book written by a friend of mine and he is an amazing character.

I'm wondering if I should start using watermarks on my stuff. I don't have any art out on the internet except for the stuff here on TLC, but...I dunno. I'm considering starting doing art commissions as a part-time job (sometime in the next couple years, anyway, if all goes well), but I have no experience with that so...does anyone have any experience with this sort of stuff? Should I start watermarking my more detailed artwork now, even though I'm not making any money off of it yet?

Wow. I cannot do that! (Also, ahh, the kitty’s eyes!)
I don’t see why you can’t start watermarking now. At the very least, it wouldn’t hurt to do. Even the stuff you don’t make money off of could be stolen and claimed by someone else.

Hobbit, you're good enough to where you should watermark. Seriously, some of the old comics I put up on this site years ago have been used on websites I know nothing about (I was google searching the photobucket links I used to use and found out about it.)

This is something I drew last December. It's a cross of my dog and Dante from Coco.

Whoa! Is that digital drawing or converted pen/cil sketching?

It was penciled on 8.5"x11" paper and then penned. I used an empty picture frame so I could hold the papers in place and also let light shine through the back of the frame to trace over previous drawings. It would have been easier digitally, but for some reason I haven't been able to draw well with the Wacom pen - at least not yet.

@Hermit: Okay that is an adorable animation, seriously. :mrgreen: (Also you have a Wacom?? Niiiice...that's an eventual goal of mine. The tablet I have right now is a cheaper brand and you can kind of tell...)

And okay, yeah, I guess I'll start figuring out something to use for a watermark. Thanks, guys!

I've been sitting here trying to figure out whether this belonged non-Narnian fanart or original artwork because it's from a story but it's a story I'm writing...

(Also I was going for a sort of comic-booky look as I was doing it, but it hadn't quite achieved the effect I was looking for by the end, so I put it through a photo filter that sadly dulled the colors and destroyed the image quality, but at least it sort of gave me the effect I was looking for...?
(Also look, watermark!!)

Hobbit, this does have a very comic-like look to it and has complex reflections of light. Thanks for posting!
