I've been drawing. Silly stuff - mostly elves...
...but I wanted to show it because everyone should get the opportunity to see things like a Chibi Aldanith! so here it is.
My Deviantart page, where you can find more drawings of elves. (http://anadwen.deviantart.com/)

A tiny sketch of Aldanith. Beware: more dangerous than cute.
(http://th09.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2014/029/7/d/apples__sketch__by_anadwen-d748eet.jpg)
Random Athran + an apple drawing... Spice knows which thread it's related to! :D
More shall be coming.
These look great, but could you please reduce the image size please? >>
uh... how? ???
Oh, apples 8D
These are really good, can't wait to see more! ^_^
Aldanith is just too adorable (darn those chibi drawings for being so cute!)
And you can edit image sizing on deviant art, that's normally what I do if I realize the original image is a bit large x.x other than that, you can use image software to do it, like photoshop and the likes ^_^
Keep up the drawing, I hope to see more stuff :D
there shall soon be a full manga picture of Aldanith - with all the detail it needs. maybe over the weekend.
Awesome. :) Can't wait to see!

Not sure what program you use, but on Paint.net or Microsoft Paint, for example you would locate the "Resize" option. In Paint.net, this is found under the drop down menu of "Image" OR you can press ctrl+R. In Microsoft Paint(Windows 7) ,the resize option is pretty much right in front of your face at the top near the select feature. xD
All you would need to do is reduce your pixel size from like the 1000s to about ...maybe no larger than 700 or 800 pixels for both width and height. Make sure you check off "maintain aspect ratio" first or your picture will get pretty stretched. I do believe that this is already checked off for you by default but you never can be too sure. xD
Looking forward to seeing he pic of Aldanith.
I can't wait to post it, either! you can get a little idea about it from the chibi sketch, but the real Aldanith has that look...
...he'll steal your heart. and all of your gold!

And here it comes - what is done from Aldanith so far!
Nice job so far, Ana ^_^ Can't wait to see it completely finished!

More chibis!

A work-in-progress portrait of Aldanith being crazy from mine and Gaunt's thread Thief's job.
That's what you get when you let him get crazy!

A random sketch which was supposed to be Aldanith but was colored as Athran...
(http://th02.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2014/073/6/a/artemis_chibi_ink___shading_by_anadwen-d7a69q6.jpg)
WIP Artemis chibi... I'll try to color him in Paint.net, as nothing is as bad as my crappy pencils.
THese chibis are so friggin' adorable.
Keep them coming XD
I will, I will!
Also, I got a new signature :D
(http://th00.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2014/074/5/9/artemis_colored_by_anadwen-d7a94tc.jpg)
Artemis colored!
Well, kind of. It still needs shading and stuff, but the main thing is done!
Heyyy apparently I forgot to bookmark this before (which I swear I did do, but it wasn't there). >_> These are all great, though! <3
well, thank you!
here's more.
(http://th07.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/084/7/c/samurai_sketch_by_anadwen-d7blxu6.jpg)
I sketched Seiki today.
Finally finished the chibified Artemis...
BEHOLD!
(http://th02.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/084/3/a/artemis_chibi_by_anadwen-d7bma3b.jpg)
I tried digital coloring. It took an eternity, since I was using a mouse, and the shading... Well sucks at least.
yeah, Isako can see ghosts, she can lead them out, yeah, she can also fight.
but her main power is...
CUTENESS ATTACK!
(http://th09.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2014/088/f/4/isako__ink__by_anadwen-d7c3iww.jpg)
She's so cute! And nice job on the inking :)
and question- is she supposed to have like fangs? 8D
thanks!
and yeah, they're dragon-bloods, so her teeth is kinda sharp (that doesn't stop her from kissing stuff, though).
So, the amazing drawing of my sweet Isako is finally completed! *drops dead*
(http://th04.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/095/b/3/isako_by_anadwen-d7d45hj.jpg)
Lovely! It looks really nice. <3
Thanks! I already have an inked drawing of Arthfael, too, but no way to scan it :/
Finally colored the old portrait of Aldanith... Well, 'colored', it's almost entirely white anyway!
This is the happiest you'll ever see him. And that's only thanks to some ale.
(http://th06.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/100/0/8/aldanith_by_anadwen-d7dvi5j.jpg)
Beautiful coloring , Ana! I dig the shading, truly, and Isako is quite adorable!
Thank you, Sharkie! I found out it's really fun to do, and now I love coloring ^_^ so I'm always looking for new ways to make it better!
glad you like it! :D
nice coloring- but wasn't Aldanith a drow? Maybe i'm getting him confused with one of your other characters X3
Elves, elves everywhere <3
he WAS a drow - important is the past tense. He got... Bleached.
bleached for real or did youjust not feel like painting him as a drow? lol
Very cute stuff! And wonderful job on the line work too - what program do you use for the digital line art? I'm trying to find one that's capable of such nice, clean lines. Or maybe I'm just messy at line art <_<
the lineart isn't digital. it's hand-drawn on paper with a 0.5 inking pen. I scan it, then import to Paint.NET (it's similar to Photoshop but FREE!).
and thanks!
Spicy, he got bleached for real. Demons.

poor guy
Nah, he doesn't mind... He doesn't care. Trading skin color for inhuman speed seemed like a fair deal :P

I need to go find that program <_< I have a -seriously- outdated version of Photoshop. Like... 7.0. I don't even use it because it's so gloriously old now.
Your lineart is so clean and wonderful for being hand drawn :D I thought it was digital!
really? thanks! I edit it in Lightroom after scanning it to erase the fingerprints and stuff but it really is hand-drawn... it just needs a 0.5 mm inking pen, mechanical pencil, an eraser, and a damn lot of patience XD
I could try to find the link for the program. but don't get confused by adverts!
Here comes... ICHIRO! Or Mr.AlwaysGrins. That grin's always there.
(http://th05.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/111/1/9/mr_alwaysgrins__ichiro__inked_portrait_by_anadwen-d7fdjlo.jpg)
And my OHMYGAWDYOUR'ESOOOPERFECT Seiki <3
(http://th04.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2014/111/e/0/seiki_portrait_inked_by_anadwen-d7fdl25.jpg)
which I totally messed up and I hate it. I gotta draw a new one...
(http://th03.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/112/d/f/grinning_by_anadwen-d7fitv1.jpg)
Ichiro's grinning portrait finally finished! woot!
I'm gonna guess that Gin was the inspiration for that? xD Good job, though.
yeah, for the grin. though I loved drawing the hair and I played for hours with the shading XD
(http://th01.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/119/f/1/arthfael_inked_portrait_by_anadwen-d7ggr5n.jpg)
Arthfael! Because why not.
(http://th05.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/115/c/d/seiki__shirtless__by_anadwen-d7fwkdh.jpg)
And shirtless Seiki (whose hair I can't figure out).
(http://th05.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2014/127/3/f/death_note___shinigami_ballet_by_anadwen-d7hhqh1.jpg)
RYUK BALLET! It's got nothing to do with SotE, but it's awesome ^_^
LOL
fun sketch XD
thanks! I was bored over break... so I drew stuff XD
(http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2014/143/0/b/miku_by_anadwen-d7jh9un.png)
It's Miku! a 3 inches tall/wide sketch that I did over break eventually turned into a full colored portrait...
(http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2014/162/d/0/black_pen_doodles_by_anadwen-d7lxl40.jpg)
I doodled something...
Okay this is how your amazing Anadwen looks on a bad hair day!
:o I got a graphic tablet!
but... no idea how to use it with my thousand-strokes-for-a-single-line technique...
HELP!
It works the same as a pencil or pen, you just have to get used to looking up at the screen and not down at the tablet. Just keep practicing and you'll get the swing of things :)
Which one did you end up buying?
Wacom Intuos Manga.
I can use it around the screen and stuff just my way of drawing is a problem for it :/
Make sure the driver's are installed if you have not done so already. Sometimes the driver's get wonky and you need to re-start your computer or re-install them.
yeah, I did. it's all working properly, just that I'm... errrr... confused with stuff at the start. very confused! and then I panic!
It's okay, if it ever acts up again try re-starting or re-installing the driver's before panicking (normally I get angry first before I do this step though) lol
(http://th04.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/166/1/c/rukia_kuchiki_sketch_by_anadwen-d7mifsw.jpg)
So... yeah, I drew something.
for a first attempt it's... Acceptable, I guess! I draw better than the character I drew (Rukia from Bleach), so that's a success! *claps excitedly*
good job! But you know since you're using a digital medium to draw in you can resize the final graphic so it's not so large. And if you're using deviant art, deviant art allows you to resize things there as well.
Ah... Well, blame that on my laziness (DA) and cluelessness (program) XD
*drumroll*
TA-DAAAAAH!
(http://th01.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2014/167/b/3/rukia_by_anadwen-d7mnj7i.jpg)
I did it like a sketch cause I was too lazy to color ^_^
(http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2014/174/2/7/sen_ryuu_inked_by_anadwen-d7nn9fi.jpg)
Sen Ryuu Adachi from over on RotE, the most ferocious, battle-crazed, foul-mouthed, awful and awesome at the same time Adachi to be ever born, most likely.
I finally took the effort to resize it! yay!
(http://th07.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2014/178/e/3/renji_abarai_by_anadwen-d7o8p94.jpg)
FANART
RENJI'S GLORIOUS HAIR
This took an eternity to draw, but... It's done. It's over.
*faints*
Oh wow. You're really improving Ana. Great work!
I'm looking forward to seeing more!
(Love the Ryuk ballet. Light's face is priceless. Just lol.)
Thanks a lot, Sharkie!
that Light's face was intended >:D
also... Sen Ryuu colored!
(http://th09.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2014/185/5/0/sen_ryuu_by_anadwen-d7p7bjo.jpg)
(http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/209/7/9/the_one_eyed_jester_by_anadwen-d7sm1rc.jpg)
The 'One-eyed Jester', a thief from a story of mine. Also my latest picture. I started experimenting with backgrounds since everything looked just too bland...
