I purchased another video from Massive Black.
Digital Painting Caucasian Females by Zhanglu and Jason Manley



and here is a link to Zhanglu's thread of him posting his artwork.

I find his artwork very beautiful and alluring and floofy!
and what is talked about in the video has pretty much caught me. starting out with a very soft quality and building into and defining edges instead of chiseling something. though I do admit I still chisel my paintings alot out of old habit XD

Now. onto the subject of what I was painting-

Yuge- and I think others are trying to get me to try out some crazy D&D sheet style FFRP? I don't remember D:

though after a while I just said no I might not really be interested, because I usually viewed anything D&D in format being "You've got to be right on your feet making fast conclusions and mathematical equations and curring cancer OR THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE IS GOING TO DIE" Frostie is slow so the universe is going to die XD

but while I was talking to a friend of mine about some pretty downer stuff in the back of my head I was thinking about this character and IF I made it. what would she be like? Yuge already gave me a few ideas, (Moogle overlord xD)
so I kinda just played with it, even without knowing the history or setting or anything here's a blindsided sum up which is cliche as shit but it's all I've got right now until I refine or completely ignore the character;

Born in a brothel
mother's a mistress of the brothel owner, father's a pretty boy prostitute.
over the course of her life character's dialogue becomes nothing BUT swearing like a drunken sailor. (See: FF7 Cid)
eventually steals paperwork from brothel owners desk seeing the price to free her father is so huge it would make Galka's shit diamonds.
runs away swearing (Ha Ha! both ways) to free her father.
later gets caught by thieves who want to sell her back to the whore house.
picks up a few tricks of the trade.
pisses off the entirety of thieves in the area.
is now on the run from thieves faction for stealing a priceless artifact that absolutely no fencer wants to touch since it's red hot.


and that's it. :B

....My characters are all trainwreks XD
