The green eyes had a little more "glow" to them and gave her a "cold" look if you know what I mean. But the purple/red eyes match her suit better. It is really hard to decided which version is better but I would go for the green eyes. But please, it is your picture and it has to please you and not everybody.
And of course the male needs these bigger...horns. ::)  I mean, what would he be without them? :P And it seems that you plan to place the horns of the male more to the side or the perspective misleading? I have noticed that the female has pointed ears while the male will get rounded ones. I like the pointed variant better because it adds more to the alien nature of the Diaboli. But I have to admit that I have no idea which version is correct in regard to this race.
Will the male Diaboli remain weaponless? If not I could imagine him holding a flaming sword in his right hand and a spiked buckler in his left. Well, just some thoughts...
I'm really looking foward for the male to become alive by your talent, so please keep us updated. :detective:

 :oops: Oh dear, you're right Kaityra, the horns are a little off. They're meant to be in the same place as the females. Thank you for telling me, I probably wouldn't have noticed!
Another oopsy is the ears... I meant them to be pointed, but forgot to do it. When I was first drawing the female she didn't have pointed ears ether, but I added the point after closer inspection of the artwork on the race's page. Though that's kind of silly, as my art differs slightly from that one's details anyway... oh well.  :P
And yes, he'll end up having a weapon of some sort. I'll see what happens.  :)


Long horns for the win.  ;D

I had so much trouble with the legs, it's not funny. :sweatdrop: I'm still not sure they're okay, so please tell me what you think?

By the way, do you guys like me showing the drawings in this way? Or is it annoying and I should just stick to more major points, like basic sketch, half way done and finished, perhaps?

I really like the dynamic pose. The legs look a little bit too muscular and "thick" compared to the upper torso too me, at least for a male. But on the other hand he is a Diaboli...so you probably won't have to change that. Everything else looks fine to me. :)

I like the somewhat shifty smile he has on his face! Keep up the good work  >o)

I think his pants are supposed to be a little baggy. They look fine to me.

Yeah, the pants are meant to be a little baggy. If I can get the folds looking right on them, it should stop the legs looking too thick. With colour and shading, hopefully it will be okay.  :)
Thanks everyone! I should be able to show you an update tomorrow or the next day. I really appreciate the help and encouragement, thanks again! :D

I'm rather enjoying shading this one. ::)


I've been drawing this one the exact same way I made the female. It's a rather new way of doing things for me, actually. Starting from the black and working in the white. It's kind of fun.  :D Only really works well for these guys, as they have black-ish skin anyway... Perhaps if I was to start with a skin coloured base? Or just add in the colour like i do with the clothes... *ponders* I'll have to do some experiments, I guess.

Smudge tool?!  :o

Oh, tattoos are a great idea!

Anywho, sorry I haven't shown you guys any updated pictures recently, but I just got a new computer and I haven't gotten around to swapping all the files around yet.  :sweatdrop: 
I'll update soon.  :D

Satha, just take your time. As Planeshift-users we are used to be patient. ;)
The shading looks very promising. The light seems to come from behind him, so the front appears to be quite dark. I'm not sure if it will be too dark in the fully colored version, especially if you choose the same dark skin as the female.

Tada! Man, it's been crazy lately. I defiantly took my time this time, I think.  :P  I just got myself a super duper new computer, and installing everything I needed from my old one was time consuming.. that and trying to finish a bunch of projects at school... crazy I tells ya!
But now I have a two week break so... hurah!



The hair is still a lot lighter than what it will be, and the face is giving me a bit of trouble. What do you think to the tattoo? Tis just a swirly pattern at the moment... and it may or may not change... I'll see how it goes. I tried adding in something for him to hold but that was giving me a bit of trouble as well, so I removed it for now.

Rather rushing to type this out. I have to get to bed now, it's rather late here.  :sleeping:

I've really enjoyed seeing the evolution of your drawings, Satha.

I see what you mean about the face, he looks a bit too friendly for my liking in your last version.

The tattoo is looking good, maybe if it ran up to his shoulder as well? though it looks fine as it is, imho :
