Description Drew this a while ago but was lazy and didn't computerize it until yesterday!

This is Yachav back before he left Leisenfolde to go to the Anti-rogue city. He's in the dungeon with the Inquisitor who's practically mind screwing him For lack of a better term.... It pretty much feels like a bulldozer charging through your head.

Umm... the title could mean a few things:
1. The dungeon wasn't all white and clean looking like in the picture, Yachav's mind just... changed it in his memories cause... yeah. So yeah, it's still a nightmare but... not as bad as it really was? And he probably actually had a few scars/wounds by this point.
2. Yachav may now take comfort from this nightmare and draw strength from it, saying it he survived this, then any pain he could receice would be nothing compared to it.
And 3. The Inquisitor himself could be the 'Nightmare' who takes comfort in his job as the torture guy because his life was a lot more simpler back then.

So yeah... guess that's about it? I was gonna do another one to show what it really looks like but got too lazy. I'll draw a better picture of the Inquisitor and show you his 'other looks'

For the crituque...
I know the hands are bad and my anatomy's bad and the shading on the legs is dumb but mostly crituque how to make the shading better and about their anatomy. I have trouble with making them look too stiff. Oh and I know the Inquisitor should probly be higher behind the table thingy.

For
Yachav and Inquisitor (c) *swordclaw42

That'd be funny. Could picture it now, people are sipping tea and someone mentions 'mind screw' and everyone stops what they're doing and stares at the person like this

I love this picture! And the Inquisitors design... I especially love the expressions, and designs in general ahha!
The whole things nice, aside from what you pointed out!

So I guess I'll try to help? I don't know how to aside from just telling you what bothers me the most? We have different styles after all!

Some tips that helped me are to us LOTS OF CIRCLES for skeletons.
Plus for arms and legs, the part below the elbow/knee is longer then the other part! just as much I also think that maybe doing some anatomy sketches might help as well? um... And maybe try making the hair look more stringier in a sense, and the top of the head to be more rounded? Plus uh... I think the collar bone could be a bit more unnoticeable!

As for shading, I don't know how to help, aside from saying white isn't really a good choice, and to instead find a good range of the color [And that the lightest color doesn't look WAY TO LIGHT, unless the light source is incredibly light, but still it should blend in more? The knees are the main problem to me!

Um that's all I have for help!

Awwww, thanks a bunch!

Okay, that makes sense!
Okay yeah, the shading with the legs are weird! Dind't blend it enough?

But yeah, thanks a bunch, that did help!

Little-Lonely-Shark In reply to RobotsWithCookies [2012-04-20 16:58:10 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome!
I was afraid I was being rude about it, but still!

Yeah it didn't really blend, since it looks to white? I'd advise maybe just practice anatomy and shading sometimes to see what you're doing wrong!

No it's all good, I'm glad to get critique cause half the time I don't even know.
And yeah, I will do that, thanks again!

OH!! About the title... I was thinking about it some more, and it kind of reminds me of when people are in pain, sometimes they focus on something. Like... a water stain on a ceiling, or something, to get their mind off of the pain. It's kinda like Yachav now. He's looking at us, so it's kind of like WE are his comfort!

RobotsWithCookies In reply to ForestRabbit [2012-04-19 18:36:29 +0000 UTC]

Haha, that's good! And it works too!
And yeah, that's pretty much what he did.
But we wouldn't be a comfort to him.

ForestRabbit In reply to RobotsWithCookies [2012-04-19 18:39:05 +0000 UTC]

I WOULD BE A COMFORT!!!! I would huggle huggle him and make him feel better! Because I have healing hugs.
Yay!

The title means that I will go and comfort Yachav. He needs a good huggle-wuggling!!
Poor Yachav, though. I really wanna hug him now. The poor baby. The fact that he's in pain and screaming crying and yelling is also making him more huggable!! Your anatomy has gotten a lot better too! And so have your faces and expressions! Just a quick critique with the collarbone. It doesn't wrap around the neck like a necklace, it kind of... goes toward the shoulders. You know what I mean?

Great picture though! I like the POV, and how we're looking right down at Yachav!
Can I draw the Inquisitor and N'thero sometime?

Ohhh okay, thanks a bunch!

Okay, glad that worked out! Thanks again!

And yeah, no need ot ask!

I know right!? I had a character idea with white hair, and people were calling my character a Riku and Sephiroth rip off. And my character was a GIRL. With BLUE SKIN. EVERYTHING IS TAKEN!!!!

Exactly! And one time, I had a character with short black hair, and they were saying she looked like Sailor Mercury!! Sailor Mercury has BLUE HAIR!!!! People can't even get colors right, and then they accused me of being a thief and a copier! And my character didn't even act like Mercury! My character was loud and outgoing!

I once came up with an idea for a story with a team of super hero girls with kenomimi features
turns out Tokyo Mew Mew beat me to it

ForestRabbit In reply to IllegalSympathy [2012-04-19 18:32:54 +0000 UTC]

But TMM stole the idea from Sailor Moon.

IllegalSympathy In reply to ForestRabbit [2012-04-19 18:35:24 +0000 UTC]

not really, Sailor moon started the trend of making magical super girls into a team, before that it was always just one girl, infact Tokyo mew mew was going to start with just one girl but then all her editors were like "make it more colourful" "what about a character like this"? etc...

Sigh, not even the pro's can get a break

ForestRabbit In reply to IllegalSympathy [2012-04-19 18:36:12 +0000 UTC]

No. If Yachav looks like Riku, then by that TMM stole from Sailor Moon.

ForestRabbit In reply to IllegalSympathy [2012-04-19 18:38:02 +0000 UTC]

For the record, my point was that things can be similar without being rip offs, and can have the same base without being rip offs.
