Seeing @yamujiburo on my dash always brings a smile to my face. Seeing her DTIYS for this inspired me to go ham and have fun with big chunky cell shading and fun rim lighting.

I’m already missing Frieren Fridays. In the meantime I decided to color one of the bonus illustrations of Serie & Flamme. I had fun trying a more traditional and softer coloring style.

A digital painting of Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist. He is standing on a stage with a stage light illuminating him. He is dressed in a red sleeveless dress with a slit. His accessories include various gold and green jewelry and black and red strapped heels. He is light skinned and has gold eyes. His hair is in a braid that is draped over his shoulder. He has metal mechanical prosthetics for his right arm and left leg called automail. He is posing by pulling the skirt of his dress up to reveal more of his automail leg.ALT

I was going through my old files and realized I never posted this here. Ed has knack for flare and I thought he’d be great on stage. I still do.

I was and still am very proud of blend between the linework and the digital painting for image. Particularly all the metal rendered in the stage lighting.

Detail images are below the cut. Image descriptions should appear on the alt text, please let me know if they aren’t accessible.

The color wheel challenge has been good to push myself. I enjoyed planing out the poses for everyone. The only rule I gave myself was that each character had to be from a different show. I have the whole wheel and each section over in my red bubble, which is why you’ll notice a bonus ladybug. Zag doesn’t like fanart of there stuff so I subbed mars in.

I always reblog this one when I see it on my dash. When someone posts their own art, writing, or music here they are really hoping you will share it.
