Artpost!




Second assignment for Illustration one, "Portrait of a Monster". I fucking love Satyrs.


Bitty thing I finished up to thank a wonderful japanese doujinshi artist for sending me her books. Mmmmggghhh delicious CraigxTweek stuff I am in love <3 <3 <3


Tradesketch with [livejournal.com profile] levyrasputin who drew this for me in return <33 I'll try to color it later but I'm full up to the brim right now. MORE LLOYD AND CECILE PLEASE.


Hypothetical "chance meeting scene" set during Roberto's down time in Nice, DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO THIS TEXT IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN MONSTER. GO READ/WATCH MONSTER INSTEAD OF CONTINUING IT IS KIND OF SPOILERY AAAAAA.


The weird mutual interest/"who the hell are you" lead them off train together...


To a restaurant where Roberto flirts and Grimmer deflects him irritatingly (still with the "who ARE you" annoyance).


Until dessert...

THIS STORY IS TO BE CONTINUED. When I have time you bet your ass I will be drawing it furiously.


Sorry for the fat post and obscure fandom <3 Go read Monster.

Oh god I forgot the link and image that I meant to put with that...but once I thought of satyrs as "hairy drunk FUCKERS" I could NOT divorce their character from Tetsu of Fire Candy and now Kat and I have this fantasy of Haru as a Maenad and Lloyd as Dionysus and it's TOTALLY AWESOME.

OH WHAT THE HELL YOU WHORE I really like that 'portrait of a monster' expression. ;_; The water looks really nice too, and GOSH I SURE DO LOVE ALL THE BUTTS.

[identity profile] soltian.livejournal.com 2008-10-16 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
YOU LIKE THE BUTTS BECAUSE THEY REMIND YOU OF YOURSELF <3 I'm totally psyched you like it, though, it's way too fun to draw smug grinning fuckers.

[identity profile] genuinelyhokey.livejournal.com 2008-10-16 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
I love that the satyr has got an arm on a woman and a man. He gives no fuck who he fucks XDDD

You're getting really good with the watercolors btw.

[identity profile] soltian.livejournal.com 2008-10-16 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Precisely my point, definitely XD That seems to be the theme with Greek mythology in general, too, I kept finding material on satyrs wooing whichever gender they please.
Thanks so much <3 My teacher actually gave a demo the day I turned this in, so maybe I'll get a little better still.

[identity profile] genuinelyhokey.livejournal.com 2008-10-16 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
My father was friends with a watercolor artist many years ago and this person told him once that someone who wants to master the medium would have to make a thousand watercolor paintings before they could make that claim. I never really understood what he meant by that until I tried it myself. It really is a difficult substance to work with.

(Also, those Ancient Greeks and their crazy/intriguing morality XDDD)

I GUESS I SHOULD GO POST SOME STUFF AND BE TOTALLY NOT USELESS TOO HUH.

Tonight, I shall be using my markers. Extensively.

[identity profile] soltian.livejournal.com 2008-10-16 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I will be totally looking forward to seeing the results of that <3 GOOD LUCK!

hey hey hey, the first one is my favorite. You know why... 8|

[identity profile] soltian.livejournal.com 2008-10-16 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I do know why XD I think I like it for the same reason.

Homg, Grimmer. &hearts

[identity profile] soltian.livejournal.com 2008-10-16 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Grimmer is my absolute favorite <3 <3 <3 He's ridiculously loveable.

<333333!

I love also the first satyr picture, very much Oktober-themed! ^ ^

[identity profile] soltian.livejournal.com 2008-10-16 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
<333333!
Thanks :) I adore fall and all the visual elements that come with it <3 Especially the colors <33

[identity profile] levy.livejournal.com 2008-10-16 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
OH Yes.. Fall's warm colours are so much love!

HEY YOUR WATERCOLORS ARE PRETTY SEXY

I must admit I've never read Monster, though I'm told I should. And then you just did. I think maybe I was just spoiled and I didn't even know it OH WELL

[identity profile] soltian.livejournal.com 2008-10-17 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
THANK YOU VERY MUCH <3
You must read Monster. Absolutely must. These sketches contain minor, hard-to-notice spoilers about non-main characters, so I wouldn't worry too much XD Like I was describing the scene to someone who had seen the whole series and they were like "wait-oohhhhhh I get it."

[identity profile] silveria.livejournal.com 2008-10-17 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Oh god yes, Monster. Both monsters in this post, actually. Love the comic (SEEING THIS PAIRING MEETING FILLS ME WITH JOY YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND) but love your painting too. :D The color is fantastic as always, the mere thought of me trying to do watercolor like stuff...ugh. I'm sure the results wouldn't be nearly as spectacular if I were to try.

[identity profile] soltian.livejournal.com 2008-10-17 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I AM SO GLAD YOU ENJOY MONSTER AND DOUBLY TRIPLY GLAD YOU APPRECIATE THIS PAIRING T__T As far as I know the Monster fandom is tiny and I don't think anyone has even considered putting these two together seriously - even though honestly they kind of have THE most slash potential of anyone in the series, aside from the fact that the damn awesome storyline didn't let them actually MEET.
I'm hoping to get more smooth with watercolor, really, it's an intimidating sort of medium XD I'm always scared by it, I want to get past that.

I have so much experience drawing penis I couldn't NOT let it creep into my classwork, apparently XD

Oh god, I never know if the weepy face is a positive or negative response nowadays XD;; I always use it for a variety of things. BUT I HOPE IT'S A GOOD ONE <3

[identity profile] crowitched.livejournal.com 2008-10-17 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
girl with that hot watercolour action going on it is def a good one!

[identity profile] soltian.livejournal.com 2008-10-25 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
Watercolor was already my favorite medium at the beginning of the semester, but now I'm starting to like...eat it for breakfast. And my next assignment is watercolor only and half my class is groaning and I'm just like "LOL SUP GUYZ"
