[artpost xviii]
I'm having an artistic drought at the moment. It's very sad, but I put it down to the fact that I've just bought a house and am moving into it maddeningly soon, and stress fucks up my juice.

Oh, and I'm having epic family problems, too, but the least said about that, the better, I think. It'll work out. Uh. Well, I said that, but. Anyway!

Art. That's what you're here for. Not my life story, 'cause that's tedious. Art isn't tedious! So let's just get straight on with what little we have here and it'll all be peachymarvellous.


Let us start wiiiiiith some crazy-ass "look how this works" thing:


Behold! Pencilwork, all bare and lovely, complete with original textures and all that good stuff. I faffed until I was happy with it, Altaiir's arsely compositionally, and then lobbed it onto Photoshop for....

Colouring!


Behold, gravy! I think neat paintwork and an actual ability to render believable lighting is for pansies. :D :D

Speaking of traditional media, by the way:


I rendered this entirely by hand, colours and all, and proved to myself in one easy manoeuvre exactly why I don't do that. I had to 'shop his nose to a normal size! I made it gigantic. It's fucked up his entire facial anatomy, lol. Also, I started out on the bodysuit rendering the gloss absolutely fine, and then I... assume I got distracted? BECAUSE IT SUDDENLY SUCKS FROM THE WAIST DOWN. Sigh. Never mind. Better luck next time.

PS. This is Zlaijerh. :) THE ARMS ARE DISTINCTIVE

Have some pure inkwork! LOL FURRIES, bee tee double-you:


Amusingly, it doesn't matter what I'm drawing: you can always always always tell what mood I'm in from what I draw and how I draw it. Seriously. I don't think I have to interpret this one for you. This is Dag, by the way.

Inks again:


I'm not sure I want to explain this one. It stands pretty well on its own. Jack and Weiss. They're awesome.

I'm not sure I want to explain this one, either:


I mean, really, it's an artistic motif (in the same vein as the wolves-vomiting-wolves) I've had stuck in my head for a long while (years). Finally had the skill to render it how I wanted it, after several attempts. This one was the spontaneous one. I like the way it came out, pretty much exactly as it was in my head. Consider my lust slaked.

And Bronze got new hair!


He says they're his "Fuck Tendrils". He's such a ladykiller.
PS. OFFICE SUPPLIES ON BROWN PAPER BAG ARE THE MEDIA OF THE FUTURE, JUST SAYIN'


Meanwhile, in Lupieland, I'm thinking of a PROJECT. Curious? Read about it (and comment!) here and here. Sort version: I intend on selling LIVE COMMISSIONS. You heard me. Get in.

As usual, all your comments/filth/abuse/lol are lapped up like a cream-eating pervohound.

DUDE ZLAI AND THE BEAUTIFUL FABRIC AND THE SHINY AND um... Yes. It Is Good. I envy the drawing skillzz.

Fabric Fan Club also deems Altaiirs boudouir to be Rather Excellent.

Bronze: The hair is AWESOME!

The artistic motif type one looks like the person has faerie wings made out of skyscrapers!

And Dag looks brilliant. Favourite parts = the angry forehead and the tail :)

I LIKE FABRICS THEY WOUND MY BRAIN BECAUSE THEY ARE DIFFICULT and therefore I love them.

"the person has faerie wings made out of skyscrapers!"

Yes. :) And it's me. :) But, yeah. Yeah, spot on. :)

I thought it was you. I thought it looked more like you having an epic dream or vision with skyscrapes.

Looking on this, darling, I must conclude that you should ALWAYS draw with office supplies on brown paper bag, because what you've done there is absolutely stunningly gorgeous. The art-motif gives me SHIVERS, I tell you. Shivers.

Also, Bronze, honey, I'd love to get to know your tendrils up-close and personal-like, if I could, because you are a beautiful beautiful creature. Yes.

You know when something actually matters to you? Matters to you to the degree that you want it, or what it represents, on your skin? Forever?

...yeah.

Nevermind Altaiir lounging there arse-naked, but his bedroom. Makes me think of spices and hot sun, and it looks so inviting. *gazes longingly* I may be considered one or two kinds of crazy for thinking that his bedroom is hotter than he is. (Although, does his back seem a bit short, or something? It keeps bugging me - as in, my eyes - but I can't put my finger on what about it exactly. (Although Kay has several suggestions as to what I could put my finger on. I'm ignoring them.)

Dag is looking pretty pissed off and dangerous. Love the way you've drawn the fur on her face and ears; some artists draw way too much of it if you know what I mean. It looks just... bleh. But this, this looks great.

I was so distracted by laughing at Jack's shirt that it took me a moment but THEN I NOTICED. The underwear. My God. It is brilliant; how did he come up with that combination?

And hey Bronzeye, looking good. I think you're actually looking younger than in the other pictures that I have seen. (I'm curious; any special trinkets hanging from those dreads?)

I had major difficulties (AND THEREFORE FUN :D) with the perspective on Altaiir's body. The upper back is just soooo fucked, I don't even know how to begin repairing it! So I just left it. Hee.

FFFFFFFFFFFFF The thing of Jack and Weiss made me lol while drawing it. HOORAY.

"I think you're actually looking younger than in the other pictures that I have seen."

EVERYONE is saying that. I reckon it's because no-one seen my skill for a long long time, is what. I don't think I look any younger. THE MAGIC POWER OF DREADS!

Awesome as ever! I particularly like the one of Dag. And the penultimate one. That one gives me goosebumps and I'm not sure why. It's somehow.... visceral.

Dag was fun to draw. I drew her while I was up in Sheffield, lol.

And the penultimate one is my friend <3 <3 I'm glad you like it, too. I'm not sure if "like" is the right word?

The penulitmate one gives me neon blue lights along my spine. One on the tip of each vertebra.

And, well, I did in fact love everything else, but I cannot currently elaborate because I am short on Internet time because of guests. But. Yes. Lovely. I always enjoy your artposts so, so much - really. Always.
