Description Because good god I'm frustrated with lineart right now.

Anyway, this is a sort of color ref for Sidha Ai'resh, my only Hakiikhan character. Kinda fitting because they're dying out. XD

I whipped this up in one sitting on inspiration. While I like the last revamp, this one was much better.

Good lord it's late... I should really sleep...

Yup, completely nude. But I didn't draw any details in teh crotch area. XD

If I decided to draw them, then yes. But I might have to put a censor on the deviation. XD

Have you thought about a reproductive system for the race? xD
I'm supposing they're not immortals who have no need of those. o.o

I really like the feathery... things on the shoulder-chest area. ^^

Nickala In reply to madlucidity [2012-07-17 22:24:36 +0000 UTC]

Yup. I don't go for the super-fantasy alien race-type stuff. Not even something like telepathy. XDDD

Thanks~

I like the body structure of these Hakiikhan's I think you called them.

Could have been tree climbers and used their smaller arms for getting food up in trees.

They look pretty tall, too.

Nicely done, a very nice concept!

Nickala In reply to goldilocksplanet [2012-07-14 00:36:57 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!

And indeed they could have been. Before their home planet became lost (or something to that effect).

This dude is quite nifty. (he? she?) Love the second set of arms and funky feet.
Lineart SUUUUUUUCKS. I always just keep my initial pencil sketch. XD

Yes it does. DX I wish I could, but it always ends up looking funky. XD

What do you use to do lines?

Nickala In reply to Ravean [2012-07-14 00:34:43 +0000 UTC]

A painting program called Sai (using the pen tool). XD

Ravean In reply to Nickala [2012-07-14 00:44:20 +0000 UTC]

Ah, okay. When I *do* do lineart, I use the pen tool on photoshop. I think they're pretty similar?

i also notice you seem to have a thing for drawing your aliens with long legs. your art style looks very good ~

Nickala In reply to Raenafyn [2012-07-13 02:56:22 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!

Yeah, legs are kinda fun, plus the 'extra' joint (the heel of the foot basically) adds a bit. C:

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Raenafyn In reply to Nickala [2012-07-13 03:11:10 +0000 UTC]

yeah ~ it's not technically an extra joint, the legs just are differently proportioned. being that i also have aliens whose legs are a bit like that, i kinda understand how that works ~ did you know the most prominent joint we see on horses' legs is actually its ankle? half of the leg is the equivalent of our foot!

Nickala In reply to Raenafyn [2012-07-13 03:17:57 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I don't usually go for completely human proportions either. C: I just have a thing for making long legs. XD

That's neat. o.o

Raenafyn In reply to Nickala [2012-07-13 03:21:59 +0000 UTC]

i have been trying to play with proportions with my aliens, but they still feel too humanlike sometimes ;_; the next ones i'll try harder for

Yeah, I know that feeling. :/ Just play around with things. ^^

Looks REALLY cool, I love the design, as always. Also the patterns are really cool, are they tattoos or markings?

Why are you frustrated with your lineart, dear?

How long did it take to draw that lineart less drawing?

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Nickala In reply to thisthatagain [2012-07-12 20:34:56 +0000 UTC]

A few hours. But most of that was thinking of the design while I was drawing.

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

thisthatagain In reply to Nickala [2012-07-12 20:42:47 +0000 UTC]

So thats why you didnt do any lineart for this drawing right?

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Nickala In reply to thisthatagain [2012-07-12 20:44:38 +0000 UTC]

No, I'm just really frustrated with lineart right now. I can't draw a straight line with a tablet to save my life. Even my good pictures have shaky lines. XDX

thisthatagain In reply to Nickala [2012-07-12 20:48:40 +0000 UTC]

But a straight line on a drawing tablet doesn't have to be prefect. Ive had the same problem with my tablet

Nickala In reply to thisthatagain [2012-07-12 20:54:03 +0000 UTC]

No, but I get worse stuff out of more effort than I do with paper. And that's the frustrating part. :/

thisthatagain In reply to Nickala [2012-07-12 20:56:37 +0000 UTC]

I'm still impressed with how you made that drawing without lineart, it should be fine on both computer and paper though.

Nickala In reply to thisthatagain [2012-07-12 20:59:12 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. But... uh... what? I'm not talking about printing out my drawings when I say paper, but maybe I'm misunderstanding.

I was meaning when you draw on paper. Sorry, I must have typed it incorrectly
