Artist's Comments  Characters are Amberdrake k'Leshya (left) and Skandranon Rashkae (right) from the Mage Wars trilogy, by Mercedes Lackey and Larry Dixon. Microsoft Paint all the way, as usual. Some details are dark, so it might take some monitor-fiddling to see all of it. But the effect is worth it, in my opinion. <3 I have no idea how long it took... it was a long, long time, anyway. It started as a vague doodle and went from there. I have decided that I'm sick of the lack of Amberdrake fanart out there, and since I've been crawling around in his skull (Hadanelith eat your heart out), I may as well work on that a bit! I'll probably draw more of him, with and without Skan, and maybe even try a pic of Gesten the no-nonsense hertasi. Thanks to Hope, Danielle, and Ianthe for giving me delicious [cake] concrit as I went. <333 Edit two years later (almost on the day) 11/26/2008: Four and a half hours more work on what I estimate was about sixty for the original picture. Why the edit? My new laptop's monitor displays things far more detailed than my aged CRT... That said, you might not be able to see all the detail, but I can. And now I don't have to cringe at the shading done in what was -- on my old monitor -- nigh-invisible shades. I prefer detail that some people can't see to glaring sloppiness that some people can. |

 reports, 1d 5h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
