The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

i had finally time to work on the lord a bit again. :D thank you for all your feedback! i tried to emphasize his nobility a bit more - bigger cape, embroidery on the inside and a little diadem. i don't want to have to much of these, to have a chance to set the high lord apart. @shadow: i don't know ...

as interesting your thoughts on elvish clothing and fashion are, as less they tell me about your thoughts on this specific lord's clothing...
do you think it is appropriate or should i add a few jewels?

thank you all for your great feedback! jetryl, your edit of her arm is great! thank you - it seems spot on to me. and it looks so clean - need i really to replicate it? can't we use your version? the lord... i thought that something was strange about him (i was slightly drunk, while drawing him :win...

and another one...

number nine: the lord. lines, flats and only partly shaded.
(and sadly i didn't make up that cool leave-leather cuirass, but found it at a larp outfit shop)
just a preliminary version so that you can point out any flaws you see. thanks in advance

ok, ok....

a new version again, extremly slight changes on her biceps...
i would call her finished now.

you're right - the shadow would make it puffier. but i think she's at the edge to getting really repellent - at least for my taste....

thank you for the pointers andd the little anatomy lesson

some quick fixes:

- pronounced trapecius and bicepses
- new bigger girdle
- removed the single arrow (it was a relict from another crop showing the hand holding it...)


better?

thank you for the quick reply!

i'll redo the folds - they didn't receive as much love as the rest.
what's the problem with thin belts?
and the arrows in her quiver aren't perpendicular at all, are they?

on jetryl's suggestion i blew up the male version's arms - strong enough now? i don't want him to look like an ugly bodybuilder.


the longbowwoman is stronger now, too. and i've got a first version of her shading.

what do you think?

you're of course right with that line - it is just a relict of the sketch and indicates roughtly the shadow's outline, which won't be visible....

here is number eight: the longbowwoman/markswoman.

only lines and flats for now.
i hope we don't need the usual equipment/outfit discussion for it is the same as her male companion's... the only real difference is the breast protection thing i borrowed from kyudo archers.

okay - i've tightened the glove around the wrist. and you were right, it really looks better


i would call him finished and start the longbowwoman.

i gave an other glove a try. it is kind of a kyudo glove with three fingers.

but i don't like it at all i'm just to fond of the big old leather gloves... i know he doesn't need them, but i really, really would want to go with them.

so many replies again! thank you all for your kind help! regarding the thread's movement I really appreciate your intent to protect me. that's kind of cute :P and it's ok to leave it here, it's obviously easier ... but still i want to add that i did not like the procedure. i am able to care for myse...

i just wanted to submit my first shot at the logngbowman/marksman portrait and i am pretty astonished to find my thread moved. who has done that? and why? i did not ask for it and was comfortable with the art contributions forum. or did i miss something? but back to the portrait. there were so many ...
