Flathead770's Fanart

Holy Liz's cow! Colors are beautiful. Environment and background are good. And despite some spilled ketchup here and couple not-harm bruses (doesn't know context of this scene), characters look so adorable and perfectly-drawn so I can't break eye contact!

Definitelly one of your best, if not the best, drawings of yours, Flathead! Bravo!

I'll say it before and I'll say it again. This pic is bloody marvelous and not just literally but figuratively as well.

The pic has captured the emotional scene perfectly just by the expressions of the characters as they finally are able to understand and forgive each other and move on. It is so satisfying and emotional to me. The background desert is done very well with the signs of their Sura and Striker's struggle visible in the sand and the scratches on their bodies.

I still see the blood as a little to light but it doesn't take anything away, it is very obvious that Sura and Striker are both hurt and the scars on Sura's body including her neck only remind those who have read the story of the previous run ins those two have had with each other.

Striker is also a little on the light side but it it but a minor thought, he really comes into his own here and while he may look a little like Taunt there is just something in his expression that is undeniably Striker. Apart from those tiny nitpicks in colouring, Sura and Striker are drawn perfectly and I have to say that Chomper is drawn perfectly here as the mediator and interpreter for their conversation and he looks so satisfied to see them sort out their differences.

Words can hardly describe how much I love this pic. You have really outdone yourself, very impressive for your first commission and it is almost perfect in every way. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

This is a marvelous drawing, Flathead! Your light colouring definitely works great for these desert-type backgrounds!

As for everything else, I'm afraid TLD already said everything there is to be said. You can be proud of this one man

Flathead770 · **Reply #283 on:** August 02, 2020, 01:40:54 PM

Thanks guys! Glad to finally finish this one!

@Sneak
Yeah a lot of ketchup packages were spilled and Sura and Striker are agreeing on cleaning it up

@The Lone Dragon (I don't know how to ping your name as it has a space in it haha [Oh, it still worked, cool!])
I'm glad that I managed to fully meet/exceed expectations!

@Ducky123
I am proud. It's been awhile since I've committed fully to a completely coloured page, the first for this year in fact.

This is amazing, Flathead!! The poses and facial expressions display so much emotion, and the colors and shading are perfection!! I really can't praise this enough, how long did it take?

Flathead770 · **Reply #285 on:** August 03, 2020, 09:10:46 AM

Thanks Rainbow! I'm not sure how long it took as I worked on it every now and then over the month of July, though I spent some time before that skething out various poses to see what worked. I would say that it was at least 15 hours but could easily be more then that as well.

This is great stuff, Flarthead! Loving the colors you used and the blending of the "blood". I don't know the scene but the characters look very expressive. Job well done, I'd say

Flathead770 · **Reply #287 on:** August 08, 2020, 11:33:05 AM

Thanks!
I almost didn't even see you say Flarthead there

Yeah it's pretty deep into TLD's fanfic so that's fair.

I've read Swimmer Trials to this section and I must say the scene is captured astoundingly well. The scope is very big, the spiny backgrounds, bloody wounds, footprints, and desert, and the reconciliation pose Sura gives Striker sells the scene between swimmer and fast biter.

Flathead770 · **Reply #289 on:** August 24, 2020, 11:52:34 PM

Thanks Owls!

Speaking of Owls, I have another surprise for everyone. This time it's a commission from Owls involving a lot of swimmers and flyers

They are all OCs created by various members. Here's the list of them:

Left Flyer: Pearlwing (DiddyKF1's OC)
Middle Flyer: Valaria (Rhombus' OC)
Right Flyer: Gryphon (OwlsCantRead's OC)

Left Swimmer: Diver (The Lone Dragon's OC)
Middle Swimmer: Oxbow (OwlsCantRead's OC)
Right Swimmer: Echo (The Lone Dragon's OC)

Hopefully I didn't screw anyone's OC up

Mumbling · **Reply #290 on:** August 25, 2020, 03:06:39 AM

Ohh this is very cool! I'm not really familiar with most of the OC's, but I think their character traits are quite visible in this picture. Nice job

Sneak · **Reply #291 on:** August 25, 2020, 03:51:06 AM

Awesome, as always, Flathead!

Valaria totally looks like Petrie's mom who looks at her son after another of his dangerous travels ... Or is it Petrie's mom herself?
And Oxbow looks so cute here! ^^

Goldenwind · **Reply #292 on:** August 25, 2020, 09:50:36 AM

These are adorable OCs! Awesome job on bringing them to life!

OwlsCantRead · **Reply #293 on:** August 25, 2020, 11:23:39 AM

I don't think Flathead made it clear, but the swimmers and flyers in this piece are specifically Petrie and Ducky's siblings in different continuities, more specifically the favorite of their headcanon creations. So in this case, I went around asking, and Valaria is Rhombus', Pearlwing is Diddy's, etc.

I believe Rhombus actually pitched forward that Valaria looks a lot like her mom (think the flyers at the end of LBT1), so yeah.

Well, what can I say? I really like this piece. I like how everyone came out, but I admit I am biased for Oxbow's "pls help me" look. Aside from that, I like the angling where everyone ends up in a nice circle of sorts. Great job on the piece, Flathead! You really brought everyone's swimmers and flyers to life!

rhombus · **Reply #294 on:** August 26, 2020, 09:02:42 AM

I absolutely love this drawing, Flathead.

You really have captured Valaria's appearance in this drawing as I imagined her as looking a lot like her mother, albeit with a bit more sass from time to time.

Flathead770 · **Reply #295 on:** August 26, 2020, 10:34:45 AM

Thanks everyone! I'm glad that it came out decent in the end and that people are satisfied with it. Always a bit of a scare when you have to draw another person's OC

Sneak · **Reply #296 on:** August 26, 2020, 05:23:27 PM

Don't be afraid to draw your vision of OC if there's no any original source pictures of some characters.

It's not just like some sharptooth bites off your head if your interpretation of their character won't please them. Right?

...
...right?..

Flathead770 · **Reply #297 on:** August 28, 2020, 05:22:14 PM

You never know

I mainly just don't want to disappoint the person on the other end.

Alright, got a quick drawing done for the prompt: Draw a book cover

Didn't have much time since I was working on those commissions so I figured I'd do a cover for my Brootie comic seeing as how one could argue that it's fanfiction now

Sneak · **Reply #298 on:** August 29, 2020, 01:02:12 PM

Well drawn!

Fastbiter looks like he is pointing at his teammate and saying to Brootie "I did not hurt this child! I swear! It was him!" XD

Stardisk · **Reply #299 on:** August 30, 2020, 12:18:11 PM

Fantastic quality!
I wish I could draw in traditional technique as good as you.
