Sketches and Things

[Irina Zhukov (school)]

People seem to be in the habit of putting up their artwork lately, and I'm nothing if not permanently sitting on some bandwagon or another, so, um...art thread! Yes! xD


I guess we'll kick things off with a sketch of Renard, everyone's favorite Machiavellian Jerk. There was originally a drawing of Vertage to go with this, but it turned out all badly drawn and horrifically out of proportion and I scrapped it. So just Renard, and a hopefully better-drawn Vertage will be coming later.


Okay, this is a terrifically old and crappy sketch, but I threw it up here anyway because it's almost-Valcentica-related and I was desperate for filler material. xD This is Wolfgang von Goethe, a Hufflepuff and one of Taras and Stephen's old friends back in England. His left eye is messed up because this is an old sketch and back then I sucked at drawing marginally more than I do now. xD;


This is a very old sketch of Vertage! Everyone say hi to Vertage. He wasn't created solely for this RP community, which is why I have old sketches of him. xD; His RPer's welcome to all of it if they want.


Vertage, back in his student days. (I am obsessed with another person's character. I realize this is mildly disturbing.)

And that, I believe, is all for now. I'm not currently open for character requests, mainly because the quality of my artwork is inversely proportional to the amount of obligation I have to complete it (if that made any sense whatsoever) and I'm a bit pressed for time lately. xD; Sorry!

Constructive criticism, by the way, is extremely welcome. ^_^

I dunno, I thought that one you showed me was pretty good. But then, you're ten times the artist I am, so. xD

Lots of Frenchboy art, hurrah! And one, uh, Germanboy. Still. Yay!

[Catherina Trovinsky]

*drools* I want to draw like you. You are INCREDIBLE. I had to say that. Thank you.

[Selena Tiber]

jeebus. those are magnifico. though you are right about that left eye. vertage is my favorite, he's quite hot the way you draw him. *melts. good job and points.

[Irina Zhukov (school)]

Thanks for the comments, guys! xD (And yes, everyone loves Philippe.)

I have MOAR ARTZ YAY.


Rather messy sketch of Irina. This one needs a bit of work.


Stephen needs to learn how to save goals the proper way. >.>


A scene from Taras's backstory - Wolfgang giving him his farewell present.


I have no idea who this guy is - I just wanted to work on my colored pencil skills. He's a Ravenclaw, I know that much. xP


Coach Wash, because I couldn't get this image out of my head. xD This will eventually be cleaned up and colored, I think.


Kitty! Drawn on a whim. xD


And Irina again. If her mun's Chem teacher were here, he'd definitely dock points for an appalling lack of safety goggles.

[Aleksei Trevelyan]

Your Kitty. Is. Fantastic. xD Better than mine!

And the little Coach Wash makes my soul happy. ;D

[Selena Tiber]

WASHWASHWASHWASH! brilliance, as always....and kitty is so perfect! that is amazing with a bag of chips!

[Karia Sto-Helit]

Wow. Just... Wow. You far surpass my silly drawing which no one but Arden-mun saw, I believe. AH well. The popularity goes to the best, which, hey! Looks like its you and Ann and a few other people not me because you rock!

I luvs.

[Ann Xiang]

Absolutely awesome. The Stephen one is my favorite. XD

And I need access to a scanner again because I've got more sketches, including my version of Irina.

[Iris Daughtry-Paxton [school]]

Those are awesome! excellent!

[Sicilya Maesto]

Gosh, you guys are making me jealous! Jealous of your artistique ability. Your Stephen picture reminded me of Harry Potter, and your Kitty picture reminds of Sakura from Naruto. You're an amazing artist Irina!
