Guardian's fanart

The Great Valley Guardian · **on:** September 15, 2008, 01:31:37 PM

Well this is my first fanart topic...so to start things off I thought I'd give you all something to look forward to...

Although he comes bringing gifts and good will...I cannot take all the credit here.

I would liek to personally thank Sky for taking the line art (Which I promised to give him LAST year

) and doing a spetacular job in making the pic stand out...(Especially since when I scanned it in...it didn't have any background!

)

Very interesting

What is the character's name?
Well done about the shading along the rim of the Santa Claus coat

As for hopefully constructive criticism I think there may be a chance to improve the image by moving the character's beak a bit. If put a little lower and a bit closer to the head the beak would look a bit more firmly attached I think. Maybe the Santa Claus hat should cover a part of the character's head/crest which might make it look a bit more like the character had the hat put on.

Thanks but Sky does get at least half the credit!

But I did have fun drawing this...and as a fun fact...the line art was done on Christmas day last year.

@ Malte: For starters the characters name is Longtail. He's my personal OC for RPing. Second I do realize that his beak is too high on his head now...as a matter of fact I've been thinking about redesigning his head completly.

Thanks, I really didn't mean it to be funny...but okay...

I am curious, what program did you (or Sky) use to make this drawing all digital looking like that? Was it with Adobe?

Kor · **Reply #16 on:** September 16, 2008, 03:42:58 AM

Maybe it's top secret what program they used.

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #17 on:** September 16, 2008, 10:05:54 AM

No...it's no secret Kor. Actually it was Adobe Photoshop. I know I asked!!
