Touchdown.

This is my (basically) final version of my Gabriel picture continued from my last post.

Mostly I am really pleased with this,

Somethings I wish I could fix or realised were off were the proportions, his head is a liiiiiitle big too big and his neck is a litttle bit too short

but mostly I blame that on the fact the body reference and the face/neck were from similar but different angles and I tried to compensate.

I also notice that his left leg looks to be at the same sort of placement as the right leg because there is too much shadow on it, so instead of it looking like it is coming forward it just seems even. ]:

the lower back leg needs a pinch more shading to make it look like it is in the background

and the  larger arched wings are much too defined.. they need to be more base and mute because they are placed farther back and away from the body then the long outstretched pair.
Also I botched the shading on the former pair of wings  on the tips, I tried to create shading from the other pair of wings.. but went too far. I'm not sure how to fix that problem to be honest, I'm not yet there with my traditional skills, I think perhaps if this was digitally painted I would have had the option of playing around more, maybe adding some base overlay colors.. but thats another project to conquer!

HERE IS THE FINAL VERSION ^^^^^^^^^^^

Landing.

More updated pictures of my Gabriel angel picture.

Almost done.. perhaps time to give it a background before I ship out?

how many wings 'till you get to the center of an Archangel?

mostly clean lineart of Gabriel the archangel descending to earth after leaving heaven
yes there are two sets of wings there is actually three but the third set is miniature and extends backwards as tail rutters
the wings are different shapes as well because of their different purposes
1st set is made mostly for soaring
2nd set for long endurance flights
3rd set which you cant see act as direction aid.

Was reading fanfiction and have seen pictures of angels and other creatures with more than one set of wings... so I went and started figuring out the muscle structure of it all. because it's fascinating like that!

All together this was kind of interesting because some wiki site said Gabriel had some 600 wings... and I was like wait what? and thought maybe.. not so much as 600 pairs of wings out at a time, more of how many times can a wing be ripped out and regrown? within the 3 separate pairs of wings. :3

Also Gabriel looks a big younger here because of just landing still alittle youthful, 

And this is a crappy picture indeed.

Dean: "That's another thing, why would you want to be one of us?"

Anna: "I don't know. There's loyalty, forgiveness, love?"

 Dean: "Pain,"

Anna: "Chocolate cake."

 Dean: "Guilt," 

Anna: "Sex."

Dean: "Yeah. You got me there."

Sympathy for the devil

pt. 1

You can't really eat the little mermaid... 
Though, I think if you tried to cook her like you cook lobster her death wail would sound oddly similar to 'Part of your world.'

And it's time we saw a miracle

Supernatural meets Sherlock Holmes?

Derppppy derp derp. I felt inspired by a little contest over on Deviant Art that I decided to partake in, I know I won't win  or come close to winning because my skills are FAIL but, I thought I'd test my creativity levels.
The basis of the contest was to meld Supernatural into Movie parody's I chose Sherlock Holmes that stared Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. Except My Sherlock was Sam Winchester, and Watson was Dean Winchester and Adler, appeared as Ruby, I chose her because of all the links she had with Sam and how she was his vice for quite a while. And other reasons. SO! Here are the close ups and the final pic; also.. They are not watermarked; please don't steal them.
OOOH! and I tried to make them look kind of old fashioned with the crosshatching on the face...idk. 

*snerk*

In light of deleting my entire memory stick on my camera. I have provided some uplifting laughs.

Dean Winchester: What's starting? Where the hell you been? 
Castiel: [shoots an angry glare at Dean] On a bender! 
Dean Winchester: He's... did you say on a bender? 
Sam Winchester: Yea. He's still pretty smashed. 
Castiel: It is not of import. 

Sam Winchester: Leah is not a real prophet. 
Dean Winchester: Well, what is she, exactly? 
Castiel: The whore. 
Dean Winchester: Wow, Cas, tell us what you really think.

Samuel Campbell: Is this what you boys do? Sit around and watch porno's with angels? 
Castiel: We're not supposed to talk about it. 
_____________________________________________

Castiel: [while watching porn] That's very complex 
Dean Winchester: M-hm 
Castiel: If the pizzaman truly loves this babysitter, why does he keep slapping her rear? 
[pauses] 
Castiel: Perhaps she's done something wrong. 
Dean Winchester: You're watching porn? Why? 
Castiel: It was there. 
Dean Winchester: You don't watch porn in a room full of dudes. And... you don't talk about it. Just turn it of. 
Castiel: [Looks between his legs] 
Dean Winchester: Oh, now he's got a boner

[as a happy, fat and very naked Cupid grabs and hugs the brothers and Castiel] 
Dean Winchester: This is a fight? Are we in a fight? 
Castiel: This is... their handshake. 
Dean Winchester: I don't like it! 
Castiel: No one likes it. 
_________

Castiel: It's starting.
Dean: Yeah, you think, genius?
Castiel: You don't have to be mean.
Dean: So, what do we do now?
Castiel: I suggest we imbibe copious quantities of alcohol... just wait for the inevitable blast wave.
Dean: Yes, well, thank you, Bukowski.

Samuel Campbell: This Castiel? You're scrawnier than I pictured.
Castiel: This is a vessel. My true form is approximately the size of your Chrysler Building.

you know,

I never considered myself to be a person that would hate, not really. I'm the type that would forgive a rapist if they raped me for hell's sake. But since I was little I've fought myself so much over this one person. Battled and battled against my nature and my own wishes to change. I have given more than enough chances. Been beat down, stood back up, repeat, repeat and repeat. It's all a big joke. When I decide I will really hate this person for real this time because it is the right thing to do, I am guilt tripped. So I choose to give another chance, and then I watch as everyone around me is plowed down. I'm so sick and tired of beating myself up over giving more chances or not, whether or not too love him anymore. So I decide again for the hundreth time that I can't love him anymore, it is beyond bitter tasting, it is beyond pleasantly vile. I mean I feel as if my whole purpose is to hate him and deny his existence. This is what I should stick too. And here I am battling in my head again whether it is good of me too do so. How can something that feels right, still sound wrong.

I don't want him dead, that'd screw up so much in the life around me with karma and hate spiraling through everything (in my opinion). I was happy denying he existed in the summer, got along really well. And now I want to go back to how it was, and I can't because his presence reeks throughout the house. Poisons everything I touch. Suddenly everything is uncomfortable and dirty. Everything is wrong, I'm stepping on egg shells again when I don't deserve too. I only want him to be gone. I wan't to go to bed in peace, I don't want to stay up later than he does when he comes back to the house because I'm afraid to go to sleep when he is awake and loose. I don't want to go off to another state worrying about my family, worried if my brothers are okay, wondering if my mother is getting smacked around and raped.

My heart breaks over and over, I can't rely on my mother, she doesn't know any better, and my brothers are too young, they can't deal with the burden I've been driven to insomnia with. My heart is lodged in my throat every time I need to say ' I told you so ' but never do. It isn't my place to guilt trip anyone into submission, I'm not cruel. At least I don't think that I am. I don't want to have to hate, but boy does it feel like the only solid truth in my soul. Or will I have a soul left if I let hate nest inside and eat me alive?  I feel like I hate with more passion than I have ever loved.


Any feedback.?

Wellll, I've made some more art.
first a sort of fleshed out doodle of Faust VIII from Shaman King using my friend as the face model.

Then a finished onto my AU story doodles.. I did a sketch of my manta in a bed. I have mixed feelings about this picture 

Finally I have a finished picture of my AU Manta and Faust VIII using Shun Oguri and Gaspard Ulliel as models 

As For my life right now. I have >50 days before I am scheduled to leave for Navy bootcamp in Great Lakes, IL. I'm nervous but I'm also really excited. Last night I went to a show at The Lost Horizon, wich is a bar and saw alot of great bands like Lacerda, Honor Bright, Short Notice, Groundbreaking Ceremony and Still Rings True and some others!. I'm also now obsessed with Supernatural.

First of all. I have been making art most everyday. I feel this burning urge to reach a peak of skill before I leave for basic training in March 2011.


So I am focusing on my portraits [ big surprise] and color. Mostly my new obsession is pastel, and specifically crushing/shaving pastel pigment sticks into a powder and applying in light layers with a brush.


I really love how delicate this technique and combination works, and I really wish I had more time to explore it. Subsequently due to lack of time I am rushing into bigger things than I am able to handle. Yes I am not afraid to admit that. Thus the rest of the picture is a bit of a disaster...mostly because I charged into it without regarding proper anatomy.


I will really try and upload more here but its going to be hellish for the next few weeks.. and then months.

I'm now confident that I am not signing my soul away to Satan by enlisting. The devil wouldn't have given me this much paperwork.
