valentina Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 So, Here is some of my sketches.. I have to say.. I never draw like this.. I am used to digital painting and doing photomanipulations, so this is very new to me.. some sort of dragon female thing a dragon . I used 3d reference images here.. I used to draw a lot of dragons but .. I thought it was like riding a bike and I could just draw them again.. .... well.. was I surprised... Really needed reference I did this one for me.. I wanted it in my 'comments' section in the game... I just love chicks with bigass swords This is what I normally do .. digital painting and photomanips.. Ow and sorry if I posted wrong.. I didn't see an art section here.. or I might have missed it??
Metal Bunny Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 It's very nice, and yes the dragon does look weird , but i bet with a tiny bit of practice you can get that weird head out of it in no time

Rex Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 that is sweet pics. u couldnt donateany of them to me to geet cash??? .:lol:.
Steadfast Steno Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 Good job. They look as though they'd make nice additions to any collection or work.
Rex Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 yeah there a-some if you spent ur time on drawing lots yu could get loads of md cash. Expeciallly if u like drawin to
valentina Posted March 10, 2008 Author Report Posted March 10, 2008 Don't really like this one ... I just couldn't get it right .. and i gave up ... I am not that good at drawing anyways ..... I do love this one though .. . It could pass as an avatar i guess....
PeterParker Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 I like them all, of course! My favourite may be the female dragon thing. They go very will with the MD style, too. What's wrong with the centaur? Personally, I like it. It seems to catch both the man and the beast pretty effectively.
Steadfast Steno Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 The latter of them all is very good. You're right, it could be usable as an avatar, but, I'm not sure about the style, maybe you should submit it to Mur, see what he thinks?
Morrighan Posted March 11, 2008 Report Posted March 11, 2008 I love the drawings! :lol: Especially the man with the staff.
valentina Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Posted March 13, 2008 I love the wind's sanctuary place... so this is what kind of character i imagened with in that theme It's a very quick sketch ... aprox. 10 minutes...
valentina Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Posted March 13, 2008 an evil tree... 10 minute sketch .. but the avatar sized one looks great the dragon lady revisited... lots of details.. spend a lot of time on this one.. I know you don't see the details in the avatar size... but .. I just like it this way
valentina Posted March 19, 2008 Author Report Posted March 19, 2008 So, I have to say it's an honour to sketch for the magic duel game, I enjoy doing the avatars If anyone has suggestions, ideas.. they are allways welcome here are my latest sketches *edit they have been submitted in the avatarshop... sold out though, but in case you want to see them *
Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted March 20, 2008 Root Admin Report Posted March 20, 2008 Sorry but i asked Valentina not to post new artworks untill they are released in the game, Right now people start to select their avatars right from the forum and then push me to give them or make custom avatars for them, this is totaly unacceptable, you will have to pick your avatar from the mdshop and all players that reach that shop stage have same right to pick the best looking one in order they reach that shop level. This also causes confusion because if you like an avatar here but you dont see it in the shop you will start asking questions and maybe that avatar is sheduled in a later release wave. Until later when it wont be such a rush for avatars there wont be any avatars posted on the forum untill they become officialy available in the game. Thank you for understanding, ..and Valentina, later on if you keep up the good work, i will setup a private page where you can exibit your work , not only avatars. I want to make something like a gallery for each artist that worked on the game so far, like a personal web, but right now i am extreamly busy and this thing can take time. This also goes for other type of artists , not only drawings, but more info about this later when i will start work on it.
Akasha Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 I really don't like the avatars to be posted on the forums EVEN if hey are in the MD shop. They should be only in the game..that's the point and meaning of unique and original..i don't like to choose a avatar that is also on the forums..i want it to be only in the game near my name, to be something special not a pic showed on the forums...

Faraday Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 I love Valentina's sketches, they enhance the dark depth of this game.......I'm surely disappointed with not being able to ask for an avatar as i had already put in a request for one......can only hope no-one gets it before me lol I think the idea of an "artist" gallery is a good idea, it showcases people's talents. Keep up the excellent work Valentina
valentina Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Posted March 22, 2008 I love the idea of an art section... not only for sketches but for other things too .. maybe signatures.. and ow.. i dunno home made art .. I think there are lots of people with skills like the artists allready working for the game, and maybe with the art section people might notice it better... and show them their own talent maybe.. every review has something written about the artworks in the game, and it feels very good that people still apprciate real art in stead of 3d graphics and pictures.... it's what making this game special. And in the future, I will be more carefull with uploading. I do think, even if on the forum they are still unique... i don't see the difference in people seeing them next to a name or here... there is only one player that owns one of the above avatars... only one player can say that and here, you can see that some of them have a lot of detail in it.. in the game they are very very tiny... ow and people can allways pm me about ideas for avatars... if they have a request i'll do it but chances are very slim that you will get that avatar like muratus mentioned, you'll just have to wait untill you can get those level 2 avatars
MATRIX 007 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Posted March 30, 2008 I like your sketches it is very loose and not rigid in form. i like that they use black and white as well! I wish i could draw a little bit better myself! I realize my style is not much different than yours and it is one of the main reasons why i started playing this game! the art is fantastic!
Nauraph Posted March 31, 2008 Report Posted March 31, 2008 I really like the gentleman and the Sorcerer guy. The rest is just... awesome.
