Art dump

[ellenmillion]

For feeling like warmed up crap still, the muse has sure been doing her best to cheer me up and keep me moving... resulting in an awful lot of art! I'm getting near the end of a sketchbook, and that always seems to mean a lot of flipping back through it and finishing up some of the sketchy-sketchies. Lots of them have turned into PA pieces, and some are just art, some are fanart, and well, you'll see.

Comment and make my day!




A piece available for adoption here!


A piece available for adoption here! Not terribly fond of this one, so he's cheap.


Not available for adoption - she's been snagged! (submitted description) I used a dip pen for this one - my first in a long while. I love how flexible the line width is...


As has she! Though I will be custom-coloring this one for the client, too. (also a submitted description)


Currently claimed for a submitted description - just a quicky cheap option for the client. Another dip pen piece.


I further refined this. (Resla, of Kadanzer)


And finished and inked this little thing. (same character, with firelizards) Back to microns for this one...

Enjoy!

I like the cloudbear one. Variations on that pose are among my favorites to draw.

And oh! do I need to exercise my rusting art skills!

Oh! I like the one you did with the dip pen. The lines are so delicate, and I really really want to rub that polar bear's nose.

I LOVE the pen-and-ink piece of Resla with her firelizards. Very nicely done! :)

How successful has the Portrait Adoption been for you? I'm considering preparing some pieces for it, and I'm interested to know how much traffic the site has, and what your average adoptions are in a month. :)

Thanks!

PA has been a hit. I'm continually amazed. I'm not retiring yet (hah, not by a long shot!), but we've been getting an adoption every few days for that past several months, and it's rather steadily on the rise. We get 200-600 unique visitors a day (and my stats are set up NOT to count hotlinked images, so those are more accurate than you may find other places). You should totally join - there's really nothing to lose, and it's a heap of fun.

Awesomeness! I'm glad it's been so successful for you! :)

I'll have to get some portraits drawn up... I need to submit work for the store, too, and see if I can't get some better work there than what I have...

**goes off to ponder...**

I'm quite impressed and fond of the further refined version of Resla of Kadanzer. I like how she and the dragon/wrym there actually seem to have a relationship, its not just pretty pretty...its illustrative. I admire the musculature on the dragon/wyrm there too, everytime I attempt a dragon it doesn't look conventionally dragonish. Again very good work on that one in particular.
