Art...sort of

[Sen]

A really good drawing. Only, I wonder if Klyros have such human-like lips. I would imagine them more or less without.

To be honest I have no idea. From what I could glean of the avatar, they do "have" lips, they're just not that prominent. I haven't decided if I'm going to shade it, but if I do I'd probably blend so it's less of a harsh, evident line. I mostly added the lips (and the pupils in the eyes) for expression purposes.

white eyes are mostly unfathomables, isn't it? Nice drawing!

Somewhat. Sometimes I think all the klyrans are secretly super awesome oracles. 

If anyone would like a lineart of their character's face/upper body, I'd be happy to do it. Just gimme the char name and desc here.

i missed yer oct 19 post. i think it's very well done. you did a nice enough job creating an emotive expression without the use of human-like facial features. i wanna pic of barsi killing finnis.

[Jilata]

Very nice picture Mariana. 

*Remembers that she has some pictures to upload as well actually...

[LigH]

Who is it, and why so desperate?

[Mariana Xiechai]

Thanks Jilata! I can't wait to see what it is you've drawn lately.

And LigH, that would be Evirea, a character that tends to have a lot on her mind. I don't know of "desperate" is the adjective I'd use, though, so I can't answer your second question. You'll just have to find out IC!

[LigH]

Oh, I believe I've met her, and was not too interested in repeating that over and over.

[Mariana Xiechai]

Okey dokey then!

[BoevenF]

Mariana, I'd like to see your interpretation of Boeven, if you please.

The actual description is:
You see a klyros male named Boeven Facco.
Boeven is carrying an old sack tied on his back with leather strips. A sheathed sabre is attached to the base of each wing, hanging behind his back.
He's looking around, watching everything. A metal ring with white crystals is on his ring finger of the right hand, and a gobble amulet around his neck.
There's a scar across the wings.
The armour appears quite used and stained.
You smell a slight hint of apples around him.

I could add that recently has traveled a lot in search of scrolls in ancient klyran language, so perhaps right now he's burying his nose in a parchment.

I tried once, but the result was awful 

[Mariana Xiechai]

Can do, Boeven! And Aramara, I'll work on it. Might take a little longer though than an expressive "mugshot" if you will 

[Mariana Xiechai]

Boeven Facco. Hope you like him Boeven!

[Tessra]

Yeeeeeeeshe, LigH.  I really hope you didn't mean that the way it sounded.  Evi is one of my favorite characters in the game.  She's got significant mobility and depth to her, and is just all around very nicely made.   
and its funneh to watch her flail with teh menfolk hit on her

Have I told you lately how much I LOVE the way you've been doing the scales, Mari?  Cause I do.  Putting just a few here and there on the picture does wonders for giving it the impression of scaling, without having to "clutter" the whole body with them.  I might just have to try it myself! 

[LigH]

@ Tessra:

It was just this kind of "Shut up!" attitude even against Esanor, the mute dwarf; just being present in the tavern seemed to be too loud of him for her state of that moment. Esanor avoids un-cheerful people. They tend to miss his easy point of view.
