Feature 193--ConfuzzledLion

 

Beidou Fanart

The first thing I noticed on this piece was the fabric on her shoulders. It looks so furry; I so enjoy the texture that ConfuzzledLion put on that portion! And speaking of texture, what do you think about how lovely the character's hair came out? It's perfect!
Special thoughts to how the ear was painted, too. I personally cannot get them drawn at all so to see how someone was able to shape it properly is so interesting. Absolutely have to give this piece an excellent mark!

Lighting Study

This is fun to see. Studies of all kinds are an artist's lifeblood; don't you think that ConfuzzledLion did such a great job with this one? I personally enjoy how the light just barely touches the chin bones. And just look how well the paler color on the hair came out.
Something that my eyes keep going back to is the character's eyes in this study. I wonder what she's looking at? Why whatever it is has such a nice focus?
In all, lovely a lovely work.

Cyberpunk

And finally, the most fun piece of these three! We can see here how the light studies had to have been learned well and I'm personally fully enjoying how we can barely see the figure in a quick glance--a ninja or another quiet and quickly moving character would have to take the few moments of confusion. In the dA page, ConfuzzledLion mentions that they played their music list on random to see how to build the character I can see it, can you? Like how the hand is metallic of some form--robotic or just a replacement? And I wonder what kind of tool that is on or in the other hand?
Very fun work!

You have got to see more of ConfuzzleLion's work! The link is here, definitely drop by and spend some time.

Feature 177--Amatorem-Artifex

I love this color scheme! But I guess all of you know that I'm in love with blue, right?
That it seems to be on the edge of a pier is very fun. Are we about to be attacked by these two creatures? Are we about to make a deal? So many ideas!
That candle on the barrel does a great job in hinting that it's where the light on the doll is coming from, too. The piece is so fun! Excellent work.

R0006F_Welda

This character puts me in mind of those in D&D or Pathfinder, the Halfling race!
I wonder what she's doing right now? Just doing her daily work or maybe intent to explore, just now coming out of town before she's found her party. The grayscale makes me think of this image being a memory, too. Maybe she's thinking about or retelling the story of where she began?

R00014F_Chow

This is fun. I wonder what kind of situation put us here? It appears that we've been captured and are about to get Questioned by the ruler of the people who captured us. All the focus is on this ruler too, look at how hard it is to see what is away from this queen.
But what is with the chairs there? Are people going to be watching us while this is going on? So many ideas to play with!

These are all some pretty neat 3D pieces! Amatorem-Artifex has so many more in their dA gallery, here's the link so you can go check it all out.
