Ryona Noel's drawing for winning our contest

by **Fate Flyer** Fri Sep 18, 2009 12:29 pm

Ryona Noel won our first writing contest A Treasure Found, and for a prize, she was able to request a drawing from me.

Ryona was kind enough to offer me a variety of options to choose from. Ultimately, I decided to draw her Caligo characters and their Shades: Brenna (her main character) with her Inklaw Shade, Gabriel, and Lyra with her Inklaw Shade, Pan. I drew both Shades in their Critter forms (their small form). :]

Here is the completed drawing!

Also, for Ryona, in case you want to show them separately, here they are for you on their own: Brenna | Lyra

I hope you like them and that they look at least somewhat how you envisioned them! I wasn't sure about the Shades' eye colors, so I chose that myself (since I didn't want to ask you and give away what I was doing for you). So, I hope that those suit them!

There isn't an appropriate smiley for this moment!!! I want to give you a big hug, and then pick up my caligo characters and cuddle them!!! Sob

They are perfect, thank you so much. And it's like you did two for one Clap

Thanks Fate! Thank you thank you thank you!

Aw, you're welcome, hun! ^_^ I'm just glad that you like them! I had a lot of fun with this one, and I was actually happy with the way it came out (unlike most of my work, lol). So, yeah, thanks for liking it! Hug

xD Lol!

And the shade's eye color is just perfect! I never thought yellow worked for me but in this case it does. And Lyra with her grimalkin...*Squee!*

I've got to make an avatar/signature set with these... And change my character profile images! XD

Wow, Fate. You did an amazing job on this! I really love the way you did Lyra's hair. It's so interesting, but it totally adds to her beauty. I actually really love Brenna's hair, too, now that I really stare at it. It's awesome. I love your artistic style.

o.O Totally missed this thread, but didn't miss it on DA at least. XD Those are just beautiful Fate - I love the texture in the curly hair, and just about everything in the expression of both faces. Absolutely lovely, the both of them!
