Artwork
 
Yay!
Here's my newest topic, which will be filled with fresh and brandnew vegetables...erm....artwork!
My first picture is a piece I called "Get out of my sight, Stranger!"

Stranger meets a wild Steef in a desert and get attacked.
I thought that wild male and adult Steefs are quite distrustful and would attack everything that gets closer to them.
This scene shows stranger's hidden identity.
In the meantime, everyone knows that Stranger is a Steef also. But how could the wild Steef know that? *shrugs*
I drew the wild Steef bigger because I wanted to make the scene look dangerous and exciting.

Done in Photoshop 7.0, 5 hours
I'm happy that I got time to colour it

That looks awesome!The wild Steef looks very cool, high above Stranger. :)

monkeybait 07-30-2005 06:20 PM

awesome!
 
you are a very talented artist! I loved the colors.

That's brilliant, Alector. More please!

Dave 07-31-2005 11:12 AM

Impressive!
I'd like to see more.

Alector 07-31-2005 01:32 PM

Hehe, thankie for the comments!
Here's another Steef picture. I wanted to see what a Steef looks like with black hair and blue eyes. So, here it it. Isn't he cute??? :D


Edit: forgot to put picture in this reply. LOL

Woah, you're a great artist! I've said this in other topics but I want to say it again so shmeh. That first pic is very dynamic and a great Photoshop pic, that second one is great, I take it it is hand-drawn? You are a good artist on the PC and normal drawing, I wish I was that good....Anyway, top stuff, keep it up!

big bro boogie 07-31-2005 02:05 PM

Alector, yer drawings are erm... besides the fact that they're (ofcourse) gorgeos, they seem to inspire me to draw steefs too.(YaY!:))
Why?
Because the anotomy you used in the second picture rocks.
I can explain further, but I'll be drawing instead. :p
So ehm... See ya.

Edit: And to clearify my opinion: Those're Friggin Sweet, Alector! ;)

Dave 07-31-2005 06:36 PM

Very cool!
I need to take some medicine, because I only wish I could draw that well.

odd chick 07-31-2005 07:01 PM

Ooh, nice pics, Alector! They're both awesome-I love the first one! The coloring in it is just done very well. Keep up the good work! :)

Hi friends!

Finally, I managed to draw a new picture of a Steef. I'm addicted in drawing Steefs I know. This was a sketch I did in school and finished at PS at home.
A young Steef is relaxing at a warm summer night. How I miss it... *sobs*

Have fun

Thanks a lot! I'm working on a new picture right now. I will post the sketches tomorrow or so. Let's see if you like them ;)

Alector 11-19-2005 02:27 AM

Wow! I finally finished the newest Steef picture! This is an adult Steef, who is roaring for freedom. The brown tones should remind on hot desert sun and warm dusks.
It took me over 60 hours to colour this picture. I hope you like it.

:eek::cheer: holy mother of Odd! that's one heck of a GOOD picture ya got there Alector, I jus' LOVE it:D 60 hours? Whoa kinda long time to make a pic, but if ya want something being well-made then ya really have to take yer time, believe me I'm taking plenty of time when I want me pics to be good as possible.

when I'm scetching the character it would take 'bout an hour, then the whole shading- stuff would only take half an hour to make. anyway I'm LOOKING forward to see MORE of yer art:D:D:lol:

Alector 11-28-2005 10:37 PM

TUTORIAL!!!
 
Hi friends, I finally did the tutorial of the Steef horns! Now you can see how I draw them in seven really easy steps. It's done in Photoshop.

Attention! This is a very huge file and takes a bit to load and makes the topic size a bit bigger!

LoboDiabloLoneWolf 11-29-2005 12:33 AM

Wow, that's really helpful, or it would be...if I had Photoshop...:fuzemb: but it's useful anyway :D

Alector 11-30-2005 10:18 AM

You can use it for traditional art too! :D

Leeum 11-30-2005 11:00 AM

Amazing...just amazing. Please say it's all copyrighted ;)

Alector 02-05-2006 07:01 AM

lol. Thanks for the compliments. There are some moments I wish I was an Inhabitant...*sighs*

Back to reality. I made up another Steef character. He's really young and does whatever he wants. LoboDiabloLoneWolf is going to find out a name for him. I can't wait for it! :D

Have fun!

LoboDiabloLoneWolf 02-05-2006 07:11 AM

*ahem* Okay, I've come up with a name.

*puts on impressive voice* From now on, you shall be know as....

Shyridon

Which is a corrupted verion of 'Sheridon', which means 'wild one' or 'wildling' in Irish, and that Steef definitely looks wild :D

Al the Vykker 02-05-2006 07:19 AM

I almost forgot how amazing your artwork has always been! Seriously great work Alector and hopefully we wont have to wait a long time again to see more. :)

dripik 02-05-2006 08:07 AM

Wow! Amazing artwork! I like Roar of Freedom the most.

This reminds me to continue drawing my comics. Your pictures are inspiring.

Slig outlaw 02-05-2006 08:19 AM
