The art of Jez
 
I thought I should make a thread about my non-OW art too ^^ Because as much as I love Zoe and my OW fandom, my original stuff is just as important to me.

My most frequent character is Jez/ter, a hyapin (a species created by a friend @dA) hybrid. She is a girl, no matter how boy-ish she looks, she just doesn't have boobs, kay? Then there's rat and a huge serpent (or eel, still unsure) creature that follow her around.

There's also Eva in there for those who've seen my OW art thread, purely because I was too lazy to crop the picture.

Intriguing.. :|

Dryadri 12-31-2009 06:04 PM

...and what is that supposed to mean? :|

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 06:07 PM

Not to be rude, but my art's better..
But yours is really good, don't get me wrong!

Oh Jesus Christ...

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 06:08 PM

I actually envy some of your art.. my backgrounds sometimes..
Eh, not so much, but yours are great.

Sure yeah, that's not rude at all.

I'm just stating a fact, but i'm sure you could outdraw me any day.

It's not a fact is it? It's clearly your opinion. Maybe you are a better artist than me, but you have a whole four extra years experience while I'm still learning.

Has anyone actually seen your art on here yet?

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 06:12 PM

You're quite gifted with dragon's aren't you?
I'm awful at drawing the bloody things.. You've got it down to an "art"?
Get it? xDD

Opril: You're a troll. I cannot honestly believe anyone as fucking dumb as to do such a social faux pas has enough brain cells to put one foot infront of the other. I am not your bromigo and I'm calling you out on this. Troll.

Nice drawings Dradri =) I like the poofy hair.

Stop it. Now.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 06:13 PM

Yes an opinion, anyway keep up the good work and
make some more pictures, i'll get mine up next month (With hope I get a scanner.)

It's a fish. Not a dragon.
You're rather good at making people feel inferior, bravo.

Thanks a lot, but not just for the compliment ;)

I'm not trying to?.. nevermind, yeah your art's great and I'm jealous.
I'd love nothing more then to see more art from you honestly.
It's not often I meet someone who draw's furries like I do.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-31-2009 06:21 PM

Sorry for the misunderstanding, didn't mean it as a direct insult.

Splat 12-31-2009 06:23 PM

Alright guys, the topic of this thread isn't 'The Lets Abuse Opril' thread. Next person to go off-topic in that direction gets shot in the head by my infraction cannon.

Opril, your comment was a teeny bit tactless, but never mind. I suggest you post some of your own art before you boast. Otherwise it's a bit like me saying 'Hey, this is where I live!!!'


Dryadri, looks great! I love that rat :p And the character is pretty cool-looking. The eel, also, is well drawn.
I'm so pants at commenting on art! :p

@Splat
Thank you.
The dog and the big fish is obviously a wip, I don't know how long it will take me to finish though. They're only sketches, there's not a lot to say unless you're serious about anatomy and stuff xD

It's much easier when they're coloured so you can say 'Wow, pwetty colours :3" :P

Very nice.

she just doesn't have boobs


:(

Dryadri 01-02-2010 03:29 AM

Did that disappoint you?

MA 01-02-2010 06:01 AM

nice work, i especially love the second picture. very sharp-looking. and don't be discouraged to post more.

Dryadri 01-02-2010 12:52 PM

Thanks MA :)

Small update on the second picture, it's still unfinished but I'm working faster than I thought I would.

MA 01-03-2010 09:32 AM

real nice. good, vibrant colours, too.

Splat 01-03-2010 02:29 PM

That is very cool. The alienness of it is really great and she does look awesome. Though maybe the position of the tail tip over her forehead is a little... awkward? I mean it suggests more than is there. It seems too set-up to be coincidence, but as far as I'm aware you weren't setting anything up.
I hope that made some sort of sense.

enchilado 01-03-2010 04:51 PM

Oops, sorry for that post. I meant to congratulate you on your wonderful work as well :D

Ah, well you'll see when it's finished. The whole pose she's in is to do with his tail. Pain? Power? Oomf?

Thanks again, just reminded myself I need to read Glory Slig ;)

A little bit of fanart, just a sketch, but I couldn't help myself. It's supposed to be the Master (John Simm) but I failed and it doesn't even look like him xD It's rare that I draw men, but I tried.

MA 01-05-2010 01:57 PM

thanks. and once i took a look at the larger version of that picture, i could see resemblances. like the stubble on the jawline, the lips and eyebrows and, of course, the clothing.

yeah, not as bad as you make out.

Splat 01-05-2010 02:05 PM

Looks very cool. He's too young, but he does resemble the Master. And it does look generally awesome so no worries :p

Dryadri 01-09-2010 03:36 PM

Yeah, my friends pointed that out too, his hairline is too far forward. But I'm currently digitally painting it, so lines on his face and neck and details in general should age him a little. Another wip of how it looks...with no face, as well as an attempt of a realism Jez eyeball.
