2. I only do traditional arts or whatever you want to call it, using pencil and a paper. Why I don't do digital one? Simple... I don't have the tools for it. Drawing with the usual mouse on a pc is simply stupid...

Just -had- to respond to this. I used a mouse for every digital drawing I've done so far D: Don't underestimate the mousepower!

As for the idea, I like it alot, and I think Planeshift should definitely give it another try. Now that they've made a DA group I think they have a chance at more publicity as well, and as such more entries. :) Also, as you know, timing is important, people tend to have much more free time during the summer vacations.

Looks like some kind of magnetic or magic bow by the way, since it has no string :)

Well, that is correct! I made the sketch a long time ago with the idea of the bow having eyes and shooting the arrow with it's own energy. The eyes would guide the arrow to follow the one it was aimed at no matter what move they made to evade, and the energy that builds up in the bow is based on the strength of the person holding the bow and decides the speed and efficiency of the arrow. :)

Thank you! Though as for the heaviness of the bow, I really wouldn't know Gilrond, I really wouldn't know.
I don't make sense when I draw XD

That Klyros drawing has so much emotion in it! Very beautiful, especially the pose, it's just gorgeous! Since klyros can fly I'd say she's floating based on the positioning of her legs, but if that wasn't your idea, then maybe this site will help: http://www.posemaniacs.com/ I can usually find a reference for a fun dynamic pose here. (Not that I look it up often, I'm too lazy T_T )

I like this last one a lot! Very spooky and  the rogue really has this dangerous "Zak" feel about him.
The name of the rogue down in the mine below the laanx temple was Zak, right? I think.
Great work however, I'd say you captured the outlaws guild perfectly with that image! :D

Aramara: XD I had a bit of trouble in that area actually, but I think I can fix that in the colored version :) And no, it's not digital, I did the adjustments with pencil (added a little random shading) and scanned it in anew. I did remove some of the messy lines with photoshop. Glad you think it looks great none the less! ;)

Mariana: Sometimes I wish my style was more realistic than cartoonish, but I can't seem to get rid of it xD Thank you though! :)

Ligh: Thank you! Must be a good sign, since I'm actually studying Comic Design! I'd like to get a weekly comic started when I have a graphic tablet, my mouse will do an RSI attack on me VERY soon T_T

Here's another concept of an elf I've been working on for a LONG time. I'm finally going to consider it finished tonight and move on to other projects. (PlaneShift is inspiring me! :D )  The colors are a bit unstable in this one, so I'm not sure how it shows up on different monitors.

Thank you so muchly Mariana, Rigwyn and Tessra! :D
Actually the idea of enki cubs sounds really adorable, maybe I should try to draw that too <3

Here's an updated version of the fenki, I added the tail and got rid of the hair. It took me a while to get the face right without the hair, but I think it turned out alright. At least, I hope so :)

Haha! You're completely right, SHAME on me! I'm going to add that tail. I think I added the hair because she looks so bald without it, but I'll double check on that too :)

Thank you Mariana! I really love drawing hands, they can be very expressive by themselves :)

Here's a quick doodle I did of a random fenki. I think I messed up a bit on the PlaneShift design with her hair, and something doesn't feel right about the feet, but I like it none the less :)

I think it was imaginism on DeviantArt who said: If it feels like there's something wrong with a drawing, there probably is. How to know what it is and how to fix it? Draw, draw, draw, and draw some more. :)

At school we get a lot of exercises like: Make 5 sketches each week of the people you see around you for 4 years,  each sketch taking no longer than 5 to 10 min. Use pen or markers. Also, make around 40 self portraits each 6 months, using a mirror. And then there's 3 hours a week of model drawing in class :)

And guess what? I'm still not getting it right XD

Ligh: Thank you for pointing that out, I can safely say that I didn't really pay any attention to that little detail at all, but I'll keep it in mind for the next time ;) Much appreciated!

Illysia: Thank you! And you've made a fair point. Maybe she's wearing some better water-clothing underneath this outfit ;)

You do a great take on many characters, and the lines are very smooth!
Good work Mariana, certainly very interesting to see. The one you made of Dakkru is epic, love the mischievous look on her face! :)

As you know, I really love your style, it's very unique and definitely you. :)
I'm curious to see what idea will inspire you next, keep up the amazing art Jac!

Thank you all for the kind comments! :)

Jacula and Dannae: I really admire your works as well, let's keep those creative juices flowing! Looking forward to seeing more of your artworks too!

Gilrond: You're right, there's plenty of amazing artists on PS! In my case, I don't have the time, and I'm not working for free unless extremely inspired to do so. Also, I'm only a student, I still have tons to learn before I'd be working on the art for an official game.

Rigwyn: I'm quite sure you know the character who wrote that book ;)

Hi PS!

I've been working on a new character design since Mellas has permadied. :)
After all I'd like to start RPing again, and see if there's still some fun to be had in PS.
So here's another nolthrir. I'm not sure whether I'm completely happy with it, but it's a start. :D
