Description Inspired by DnD 3.5 to whip out this character image. Not a character Ive actually played with, but I like the feel that the image evokes. Ill be coloring this fairly soon (within the month?), but for now, you get to see clean lines of a work in progress.

The design on her dress came out really good. Her hair turned out beautifully done as well also.

This what makes this drawing so detailed!

one of these days noben will comment on one of my works..
then i'll die from joy
but until then, i'll randomly wander around deviantart and the artworld every few days

lets see now...
maybe it's just me, but "I" think that the hair is a bit far from her head (the back part
and her hair goes up at the ends, although I really don't mind, but one of those "oh my god it defies gravity" jackasses might mind
"I" also think that... the "rings of summoning" are a bit plain =/
although I'm sure they'll look better colored

(I = KC, the not so great yet)

The hair coming immediately off theback of her head could use just the slightest scoot to the left. And also, now that I look at it, the hair on the right side of her head (her left) is gonna get a tweaking, too. I mean, it looks... not necessarilly wrong, I guess. But it doesnt look good, either.

But as for the rings, those arent actually gonna be colored . They function right now as place holders for some pretty slick mystic runes Im designing to be put in their place (sorry, I shoulda put that in the blurb above. My bad.)! Just you wait and see! Ive got big plans for this image, and im finally gonna start coloring it today! WOOO!!!

Damn advanced critique button, now I have to find something wrong with it before I can say how good it is. >_O;

Ah, here we go. Her visible ear seems to go on longer than a humans ear, but shorter than an elf's. That just looks a little odd to me. O: Unless you were aiming for a sort of half human-elf ear thing, in which case I'll shut up.

I love it to bits! The patterns, the dress, the pen and the summoning. Absolutely stunning on the detail. I will be stalking you.

The ear? Huh, oh yeah. T's good that you spotted that, though. I was thinking human in this pic, but Ill tweak the ear beofre I lay the color down, tomorrow. Cuz youre right, that does kinda look quasai-elven.

Thanks!

#2 Those designs on her dress and bodice are fuggen cool.

Dude, Its YOU! I read AM on a regular basis (Which is a fun read and visually well done, btw! ), but I had no idea that you had a DevArt account! Sweetness!

But, hey, thanks for the positive feedback, man! It took a long time to get all the scrollwork and runic designs down, but I couldnt stop tinkering with it until I got somewhere with this drawing that I havent with others Ive done. I dunno if you can tell from the styling, but this is another inspiration I built after seeing Shirow Masamune's Ballistics book. He has issues with a lack of overall lighting that make his images seem a little flat, but his detail work is some of the best there is out there! Love that detail! MMMM! Glad you like the idea of the Runic summoning, too! I got the idea from my love of some of the tools that I use. I was like "Hey, these work a kind of magic! So lets see a pen that IS magical!"

And yeah, the boobs do help, dont they?

I got a lot on the plate with school starting back up, but stop by in a month or two and this should be colored by then, as well as a buncha other things posted! It'd be a pleasure to hear from you again!
