Hey OP, what’s your tips for using Copics?

langleyeffect OP t1_j667m4c wrote

Don't bother with the blenders. Use lighter colors to blend darker ones. Always use colored pencils over dried marker colors.

Tsunami45chan t1_j66kiia wrote

I've seen people use copic with color pencils. Is the color pencils create effects or darker shades on the markers? Also won't the lighter color markes get destroyed with the darker color ones? Newbie bty.

May I ask for your take on the title of this piece?

langleyeffect OP t1_j667c5c wrote

It's been so long since I read the story and created this piece that I honestly can't remember the relevance. The title of this was the same as the title of the short story it was based on.

For some reason I feel like all these creatures are on friendly terms with the woman, are just misunderstood sewer folks with great senses of humor.

Yeah, like the big dude is just a bit scarred up from getting attacked by adventurers who don’t realize he’s not a threat. He’s also the leader and protector of these underfolk. He has the decency to wear a loincloth to cover himself up. They’re all popping out of the woodwork because they don’t get much visitors, let alone someone unarmed and not in armor. And its a woman, which they’ve never seen before. Total curiosity.

Something about this style really reminds me of Kruggsmash's artwork of Dwarf Fortress. Totally looks like an encounter that would happen in one of his videos.

This is just incredible. I love art and I’m not bad at drawing, but colouring is another beast altogether. How would you recommend someone starts out learning something like this?

Cold and black like silt on the riverbed—

Just as never ending.”

The lack of detail on the woman compared to the rest is jarring. 🤔 It's like she was taken out of some other pic.

langleyeffect OP t1_j688qls wrote

It's intentional. She's meant to stand out from this setting.

What inspired you to do this? Did the design for this creature come to you in a dream or something?

I'd just like to point out how amazing the color is in this!

I mean the drawing itself is excellent but the color just takes it to a whole new level. Thanks for sharing! You do excellent work!

It's definitely horrifying but also cute somehow? The one on the wall is scary... or is it a sewer cat, watching the stranger in its home with its hackles raised?

BaconReceptacle t1_j68wdn3 wrote

This is interesting because when I was a young kid at the beach, adults were always warning us about the undertow. "Dont go out that far, the undertow will get you". I was not entirely clear what we were supposed to be afraid of, but you have finally illustrated it.

I get the vibe that all these scary looking creatures are actually quite peaceful and that she’s visited them for some wisdom or an answer to a question that will save her kingdom from a problem it’s currently suffering.
