My newly redesigned Mechapuff character done on Ultema.net miscellaneous oekaki board.

I will need to do a bit of tweaking on the colours and do a background before I finalise this drawing!

You can view the animation to see how the entire drawing was done.

Comments are disabled until this entire drawing is completed.

After more than a year of doing this drawing off and on, the BossyGirl drawing has been finalised as I won't work on this drawing any further.

The drawing with watermark will be uploaded onto my deviantART account sometime in several days after I complete the Mechapuff drawing.

I decided to resize the canvas of this drawing a bit further to 640 x 640 so that I can finish up on the background and paste the background text. I'm finally getting close to being done with this drawing.

Edit: I'll have to try to finish up on the background part of this drawing as soon as possible, because the power went out and this desktop PC does not have a UPS.

The shading on the hair is wicked cool...

rainbow 2010/3/13 0:03:02

I'm all finished with the background. However, I will apparently need to fix the background colours though.

Ultema's Elein, a race belonging to the Hellbore drawn in Powerpuff form as this is a Christmas gift for her. This drawing was done over at Ultema's (abandoned) oekaki board.

I had to use the reference to do this drawing carefully. The shading on her fiery feathers turned out absurd and I did not have the time to do a bigger drawing.

Doing the armour shells and the detailing on her clothing and the skin was the hardest part. Click on the animation to see how the drawing progressed. It took me a week to get this whole drawing done. This was originally going to be a 500 x 500 drawing, but due to Christmas and time constraints, there wasn't enough time to do a bigger drawing.

The next time I do her Nahdija character, the drawing will eventually be bigger.

You're a pro at shading, and the pixel style (which I adore).

A definite pro. D8

My Powerpuffed version of Mikala Sarai, Sharem's original character from The Phoenix Tales.

I finally got the lineart and base colours all done. Now, all I need to do is to shade this drawing. I don't know if I will eventually have the time to do it, because I'm supposed to be back on dA tomorrow afternoon.

I like this, the folds on the clothes are done well.

rainbow 2009/12/2 14:00:45

Thanks. I'll have to finish up on shading this drawing this weekend.

Squeevee 2009/12/3 15:46:33

Nice, I like that pose and expression!

rainbow 2009/12/5 13:20:26

Thanks! I'll try to finish up on this drawing when I get up from my nap!

This is a still unfinished version of BossyGirl (including portrait and full-body version). Even though the drawing and flat colouring have been completed, I still have to get rid of the jagged edges of this drawing before I start shading the colours.

I will eventually hold that off for a while while I try to work on a brand new drawing.

Update: I got rid of all of the jagged edges after resizing the portrait drawing. The only problem is that I may need to fix the hair before I start shading the whole drawing. However, I'm gonna have to hold off on it for a while.

Wow, very different... interesting!

rainbow 2009/12/1 16:50:32

Thank you! ^_^

I did the best I could to fix the hair on the full body version of BossyGirl. I'll do some shading on this drawing in a little bit.

Unfinished collaboration art piece with this-is-a-outrage over at dA from earlier this year as well. Although I managed to clean up the lineart, I didn't do a very good job on her hair and may consider reworking her hair.

Commenting is off and this drawing is marked as adult as this lineart is not mine. If I'm considering doing the revision of my Mechapuff character during the 2010 Winter Olympics broadcast, I may have to cancel the collaboration.

Her are the links to the original linearts if you're interested:

This portrait drawing of my Mechapuff character is finally finished. She has her current outfit and her hairstyle has improved from my previous drawing of her almost three years ago.

However, my Mechapuff character will be revised again next year with a new hairstyle and outfit. Details on the Mechapuff Makeover contest will be unveiled next Monday.

The finished drawing will be uploaded onto my dA account this Thursday night!

Edit: My return to dA will have to be put on hold for two more days. Phillies win to play another game. Game 6 will be played for the first time since 2003 when the Yankees lost the World Series to the Florida Marlins.
