All about editing Norux!

Turnarounds--Character Sheet

I've done some work on his boots and on that strap going around his back on this piece. I can admit the boots don't look exactly proper, but they look better than before I drew an oval around the leg opening. XD And that strap around Norux's back looks better than just going straight down, as if he didn't have any kind of form. 

Tutor said that the strap is showing Norux's form now so I'm glad that it looks a bit better!

Climbing--Character Sheet

 

This climbing drawing has had a bit of editing to him too. Fixed up his arms to the best of my skill and worked out his boots and hair to a satisfying way!

Fire Pose--Character Sheet

Gosh I hope I have done something right on that extended foot. XD Sooner or later, I need to add the all important fire, but time hasn't come yet. (Since that boot is being all kinds of annoying!) Still, it's been fun to play with fixing up his hair to a decent movement and that blade worked perfectly on the pose, imo!

And there will soon be more; about 8 faces with some expressions!

Keep an eye out. ^^

Norux Anihes Climbing --Character Sheet

Found a super reference to use for the next pose Norux is in! (Thank you to my friend, Nick, for finding a much easier pose than what I was planning to do!)

Sporty Mature Man Climbing Wall

This is going to be some fun to set up his armor, that's for sure. But first, the pose itself!

 

This needs so much more work. XD I certainly didn't get the rotation on his chest that well (I can redo that) and I'm sure his shoulders are detached from his body. But!

First sketch. I'm quite happy with finally doing it and now, things can only get better. ^^

Norux's sheet and pricing update

Hello everyone, thanks for dropping by my page! I'm slowly working on the Norux character sheet and all I really need to do is dress his action poses here.

With any luck, the standing sword pose shouldn't be any more difficult than when I was dressing him for the images on the left. That leather armor is going to be quite weird looking on the top pose, though...as long as everything works!

I believe that I'll be recording the painting and not the linework this time. Hopefully, I'll remember to post the link on the videos tab!

I also wanted to bring up where I updated my commission prices. 

The whole thing is simpler than before. I have had to update my line art, flat color, and full color prices to bring myself more into a competitive price range to other artists. This will mostly help with buying groceries and paying the bills that I cover in this household.

You will also probably notice that I have given a baseline where I will start my character prices from;
"Clothes and Weaponry per character:1 shirt, 1 jacket, 1 belt, 1 trousers (or dress), 2 boots, 2 blades or guns. $5 for each extra"
I have to agree that the more detail on each character is nice. But this limitation is to write out clearly where my prices begin and how more will add up into the finished price.

If I am already working on something for you, your prices will not change from what we agreed. This is only for new pieces! 

Thank you so very much for reading!

Well...Coffee and some pretty nice references for swords and daggers. And I can see right now that I need to play with the handle and handguard on the character drawings. XD 

This dagger is in that little sheath on his right hip and we can see the sword sheath. 

Norux has gone through a few very small background rewrites too. He's still the volcano elemental that he was described as in some of the other drawings, but if he's volcanic that means he should have a little bit of stone with his fire. I've been toying with around 90/10 fire and stone.

This allows for his armor and vest to be a low-grade amount of rock for his own protection. ...and yes, this was decided since I realized that he's going to have one of his hands empty while using these blades. 

That lines up with him casting illusion and flame while he fights, too. Perfect!
