Steele's Random Sketches

Post by Orasteele »

Well since I seem to have picked up a pencil again I figured I'd share some of my various stuff!

For those that remember me from my Gaia Online days, these are the most recent Verlashi in existence. The first was inked a year ago. The second is from the other day. I'm in serious debate if I want to bring these guys back to the adoptable community or not. >_>

For whatever it's worth, I'd love to see the Verlashi as an active adoptable; they just look so graceful. *smiles, even more eager to see how the guest Sam turns out in the end now*

Oh that crest on the first one is so pretty, and I do love how you draw your ram horns!

Thanks Silvermoondragon!

Janalee, I just want you to know it means a lot to me to hear that. If I can sit down and produce one-two a night for a week I'll bring them back. I know one thing for certain, if I do bring them back I want each to be unique in itself rather than a mass produced outline (which is how they were). It means more work, but I think the results are worth it. If you want to see how they've evolved from the original you can check out the scraps on my DA.

*happily browses through the DA files* Ooh, I love the Ramyu as well; it looks like you had a very detailed world going on for the Verlashi. ^_^ I definitely agree that having each one have their own outline adds something to an adoptable; it's emphasizes each one as an individual. Certainly does add more work to them though... *crooked grin* Good luck reaching your goals with them!

I love the details in the dragon heads, and yay Verlashi :D I so miss the old breedables boards and some of the earlier adoptables on there! It's exciting to hear you might bring them back as unique-posed adoptables - although they're a lot of work, the uniques are by far my favorites XD

Your dragons are so amazing! They're so beautiful with all the details! :D

And your Verlashi are so lovely and graceful. The coloring job is so pretty with the rich dark colors! Makes me want one~ X3

Thank you Seren! I'm working on seeing if I can keep up with doing enough of them to actually reopen them as adoptables.

I think I'm in love with the first and second dragons the most, and I have to agree with the detail compliment, because they look simply great -okay amazing sounds better, bah! XD- (I cringe at that detail when I try to do it myself XD) ... I'm also rather in love with the feathers and ear on the first one... they draw me in XD
