(¿Acaso soy yo, o últimamente estoy subiendo demasiados dibujos como scraps para el bien de mi propia galería...?

*EDICIÓN*: Rescatado de la galería de scraps por pedido de :icondenryuu:, como se puede apreciar aquí)


Un pequeño y espontáneo sketch que dibujé para :iconhyunthesosarian:, quien ha estado bajo una respetable - y en mi opinión, perfectamente normal para un estudiante de último año de secundaria - cantidad de stress estas últimas semanas (como pueden ver aquí). El (MUY CANSADO) dragón acuático que aparece en la ilustración es Haraan, el personaje principal en la saga de Hyun, "Heritage".

Este dibujo tiene, además, un poco de historia tras de si: después de comentar en la ya mencionada entrada de diario de Hyun y enterarme de su repentino "ataque de nervios" y, animado por la posibilidad de entrar en un "trade" artístico (una experiencia que he encontrado bastante satisfactoria, a pesar de mi actual falta de tiempo libre), decidí que tenía que practicar a dibujar la cabeza de su personaje favorito antes de meterme de lleno en una mezcla potencialmente incómoda de inexperiencia + poco tiempo para entregar algo relativamente bueno (usé esta imagen como referencia para los cuernos). Después de terminar con ella, caí en la tentación de dibujar el resto del cuerpo (el hecho que se me acabara el espacio y no pudiera dibujar la aleta dorsal completa de esta criatura debería ser suficiente prueba que no estaba muy seguro de lo que hacía entonces... :XD:); dentro de todo, he de decir que me gusta como ha quedado;, aunque el hocico y las "aletas" en la cabeza me hayan ocasionado algunos problemas.

¡Es grandioso saber que te gustó, Hyun!

(Is it me, or I've been submitting way too many scraps for my Gallery's good lately...?

*EDIT*: "unscraped" on :icondenryuu:'s request, as seen here (SPANISH only, alas))


A little, spontaneous sketch I drew for :iconhyunthesosarian:, who's been under a respectable amount of - in my opinion, perfectly normal senior year - stress as of late (as you can see here). The (RATHER TIRED-LOOKING) water-dragon depicted in the picture is Haraan, the main character in Hyun's "Heritage" saga.

This picture has a little backstory to it as well: after commenting on Hyun's aforementioned journal entry and learning of his sudden "stress attack", and encouraged by the chance of holding an art trade (an experience I've found rather satisfactory, despite my current lack of free time), I decided I needed to practice his favorite character's head before diving head-first into a potentially uncomfortable mix of inexperience + little time to turn in something relatively good (I used this picture as a reference for the horns). After finishing with it, I gave in to the temptation of drawing the rest of the body (the fact I ran out of space and couldn't draw the critter's dorsal frill complete should be enough proof to show that I didn't quite know what I was doing at the time... :XD:); all in all, I must say I'm pleased with the way this turned out, even if the snout and the headfins gave me a bit of a hard time.

Awesome to know you liked it, Hyun!

Poor stressed out Hyun. :(
Poor tired dragon. Awww, its fins are cute!

Nice benthic dragon. This seems like more than a scrap. Any plans to touch it up enough to make it a main submission?
Just goes to show that there's no rest even under the sea XD You did wonderfully with his dorsal frill, in my opinion, and I really like how his flippers came out, too. His entire body appear nice and solid, too :D I can't stop grinning at this. Seriously, Alle, you took a pretty hectic week and made it all the more better! Gracias, amigo.

Don't try to keep thinking pessimistic thoughts. You will run out.

Avatar by =Foxchibi. She's pretty cool like that.
Hmmmn, a tired, stressed and tasty target.

To hell with the old and weak I wanna hunt something in its *prime*

Thats the problem with the world today; intelligence is constant, and the populations increasing.
Me agrada lo que veo. No creo que haya necesidad de entrar en detalles, puesto que es claro que te esforzaste en todo. En mi opinión, si te estas llenando de scraps es porque tienes el loco delirio de que en algún momento, en el futuro previsible, podrás dedicarle más tiempo a tus dibujos/escritos, y que por tanto serán de mayor calidad que esos que apilas en tus scraps actualmente. Pues yo te digo: DESPIERTA, oh, limeno! Que eso no pasará. Ahora trabajas, y tu trabajo no te lo permitirá. Y cuando dejes ese trabajo, tu mayor preocupación será conseguir otro. Así que recomiendo que le bajes a tu orgullo y restituyas dichas devs a su lugar en tu galería. De lo contrario, te arriesgas a despertar mi e-fury.

You think those're cute flippers? Perhaps, perhaps, but the original are MUCH more adorable, in my opinion... =D

And I'm guessing a bit of Red Bull would do wonders for the wearied-out sea-reptile thing... X)

You think it's that good, Foggy? (I first assumed its sketchy looks made it "scrap section"-worthy)

If I have enough free time before Friday, I'll go and do some touch-ups to it. Even if I'm getting new ideas now; ideas that demand their "deserving" 4 minutes of fame... argh! My imagination just NEVER leaves me alone!

(All in all, I hope I never grow out of this... =D)

It is. Add some color and an underwater background.
They are cute too. :)
Also, I agree with Fogllama :below:. It would make a nice addition to your gallery with a little postproduction :)

He's a wise Llama, EB. He knows many many things... alas, the fact I just CAN'T draw a good underwater scenes isn't among those.
