Description
Full view recommended.I managed to get this colored in under two days over the past few days. Yay! Due dates really do get me off my ass, that's for sure XD. Anyway, I'm quite pleased with the coloring job I did on this one. There's probably some errors with shadow and all, but I did try my damnedest to do the best job I'm capable of right now, with the colors availible to me in my colored pencil palette and the knowledge I have (I'm still learning lighting and shading). I particularily like the shading on the table and the around the torchlight/Ida's wings.
A mix of Laurentien, Prismacolor, Prang and Roseart colored pencils were used, along with some marker use.
That's all I've got to say ^_^
---desc from inked version---
With a spontaneous bout of inspiration, I managed to get this thumbnailed, sketched, drawn then inked within a day. Craziness. I then spent the last few days doing the final inks. Color will come soon.. I think
Anyhow, kinda for 's contest. Kinda not. I'm undecided since I still owe her a commission and then some
Furcadia characters.. and by the looks of things, Idaris has cleaned out Spider and Julian of their coinage and other items.
Didn't use a ruler for the table and chairs as I was going for more hand made, medieval pieces that have seen their fair share of abuse. I meant it to take place in Blackstone's version of Creel [link] ,but I doubt the furniture in The Miner's Pick is this ugly so.. it must be some underground gambling place they're all at XD.
Kinda happy with this picture, and at the same time, I'm not. I boobooed some stuff while inking x.x
Idaris belongs to
Julian and Spider belong to A.Crowe.
P.S Ida's kneeling on her chair ^^

ignore my previous question of when haha didn't get a chance to browse the rest of your art yet. Nice job on the coloring :nods: I see some errors with your shading but that comes with time, and experience in a inn lighted with wall torches and a fire place
I do really love the light coming through her wings looks pretty sweet. Awesome details

I adore this, Psy... I could never critique anything - it's simply amazing.
It's really a shame you don't do commisions or anything anymore.

You've done a marvelous job of turning your inked drawing into this completed composition. Being one that finds difficulty in both backgrounds and colour, I really admire this transition - you've done a beautiful job. The textures and lighting are marvelous without being stilted or overemphasized, and the characters and expressions are thoroughly enjoyable and convincingly lively, like seeing a shot from an animated movie. Makes me feel like I'm there - very cool, indeed!

Wow, great picture, Psy. You handle the colours beautifully - I get envious! I had to look back to see if Idaris was giving somefurre the finger or not there. *grins*

AH! I love what you did with it! The lighting really has that...well...*lit* feel, with the soft gradients and all. If the penciled-over dulled inkwork annoys you, you can go back and reline it so the lines pop more. Great illustrative piece!
