I've been browsing a lot through the amazing art here on DA lately (too much perhaps...) and a question popped up in my mind: "Aren't artworks without lineart (those that look 'painterly') kinda awesome?"
I've always been working in an anime-like style with slightly more elaborate coloring and to be honest haven't really thought about doing actual paintings.

So my question to you is twofold:
a) do you think that colored art with lineart or painted art without lineart are more awesum?
b) would you like me to try the "painting-style" in the future or stick to my current style?

I'm still officially on hiatus, but maybe I'll have a lot of time on my hands one of these days and I'd like to know what I should do then X3

Without a premium membership I can't make a poll so let's do this the old-fashioned way! Tell me your answers and thoughts in the comments below!!!!

Wow, I've only been away for a day or two and the 3000 or something pageviews that were needed to 100 000 were completely crushed!!!!!!
In the end, 4 people got the 100 000.

FOUR!!!!!!!!!

The person to get it first and hence get a free sketch from me is DjTrizz !!

I always wanted to do one and always forgot.

SO HERE'S YOUR CHANCE TO GET YOUR OWN... pencil sketch...
...from me...

Yeah.

I'll draw anything you like as long as it is only one character and it should be something that I can post to DA.
Just send me the evidence (screengrab) to ecchimia at googlemail.com when you see 100 000 on my page views.

ALSO! There's no guarantee that someone actually gets 100 000, so if you get really close, still make a screengrab and the closest one will WIN!!!



P. S. : I'm still unavailable for commissions. Gomenasai.

Art advice!!!

HAPPY ARMAGEDDON EVERYONE!!

Alraight, so it's been a little while already since I've done commission work or new artwork and I'm beginning to feel a little useless... XD

So I've decided that I should try and help my fellow ecchi artists out a bit, if I can :love:

Basically, if you believe that I'm qualified to give you critique for an artwork, let me know and I'll try to cook something up!
But please only submit something if you're genuinely interested in receiving feedback and not simply want to get a comment...

OK.

Let's make it quick and painless - I'll be on a six month long break from commissions and most art related stuff.
(Technically, I'm already on a break for almost all of April, but it took that long to finish up all my past commissions).
So yeah, I'm sorry if you had a commission request, I probably should have written a journal earlier, but better late than, like, reeaaally late, aight?

For those who care, here's the long version:
So you probably know those people or are one of them who really can't stand going to the dentist?
It's like, they know they should go, but the longer they wait, the less they wanna go?

For me, it's the same thing with the eye doctor.

Somehow, I ended up being dragged kicking and screaming, uuh, I mean, I've mustered the courage to pay him a visit!
And it went down something like this:
"Now if you could please read the characters that you see on this chart."
"Uuumm, could we open the window, the lights pretty dim in here..."
"That's part of the test."
"Oh. Sooo... what order would you like me to read it in? *squint*"
"Left to right, top to bottom."
"Okay... *squint squint* I always get nervous when I'm doing these kinds of things so I might mess up a few times, but..."
"You can't actually see anything can you?"
"PWEASE DON'T GET MAD AT ME!!! T__T "

Apart from both my parents being blind as molebat, I wasn't very kind to my eyes either...
So I figured this as good a time as ever to make some changes.

First rule: no more commission work!
I love doing this stuff (and I love teh monee X] )! But it is very stressful...
So yes, I won't be doing any commission work. Until my next appointment at least (I hope).

Second rule: only one computer hour per day! (yea rite)
I have to sit in front of a computer on the job long enough, so I really shouldn't be sitting in front of that hellish machine at home... but it's so so alluring.... someone chain me to a pole please.

Alright, enough about me. How are you doing? Anything particularly terrible happened to you lately : )  (or good for that matter, but who cares about that, lol) ?
