I have the right to use the image I created for you in my portfolio.

In case it's your own character, I will give you the credits.

I have the right to refuse any request, in case I find it inapropriate.

Some people like *HylianWolfLink and :devBlack-Boohave: have been asking me which kind of coloured pencils I use in my tradicional works.
So I decided to give some tip to everyone that is interested.= )


People are worried about the differences between professionals and ordinary pencil. With my experience, I can say that there are not many. There are the price: professional material is more expensive and the softness: the trace of profissional ones are softer.
I like to say that any kind of pencil is nice to use when you know the technique. (I'll explain the way I color on tutorial afterwards)
I can assure that you don't need to spend much money, I had made some good paintings in the past using a Faber Castell common case, if you know the colors mix well, there's no problem.



For now, I advise you to familiarize with your material.The secret is know well the type of pencil you're holding, more control means more different types of shade you can be able to make.
Take a sheet of paper and start to draw lines parallel to each other using little pressure , done this, start to draw again in another direction you want, this time use more pressure on hand, and you'll see as result a gradient shape. This simple exercise helped me to improve my controll of add shadows in a drawing.



Without further ado, here's my list of favorite profissional coloured pencils:

.Faber Castell .Polychromos(Germany)
.Faber Castell Art Grip Aquarelle (Germany)
.Swisscolor by Caran d'ache (Switzerland)
.and Conté(France)

note: Aquarelle Conté can make an amazing effect when mixed with water, but are more expensive.




Another thing: thank you for 50,000 pageviews!! o.O

And the winner is ...





Okay, isn't an Oscar awards, however I'll try my my best making the prize as always. ^_^
Now I must put one more item to my "Drawing List", doesn't matter, it's so small right now I wish it could be bigger.


One friend told me we got one more week before my college classes start, more vacation days means more time do draw, would be awesome if someone commission me to I spend this free time, I'll be praying for that, even I noticed people seens to be disinterested. And I don't know why, my prices are accessible, anyway, maybe is the economic crisis. I know it sounds a bit Emo, but it's how I'm feel.
So, makes Aline happy and buy one drawing this week!! :3

I'm in Salvador right now, it's a city in a different state of my hometown Rio de Janeiro. It's my first time here, I'm in love with the few populated beaches, the food is different, yet delicious too, it's have been a very cool stay. I'm going back to home this Monday.


Thanks to all people who tried to get the kiriban, and don't worry, with sure will make others. So you still have a chance to get one drawing from me, and don't have pay for it.
Pay attention when I announce my next one!

Hello people!

We're getting close to my 30,000th pageview.
I change my mind about the prize, you can request: one character line art that will be make in photoshop. I hope it's better than a simple pencil sketch. ^^'

If you win, READ: please take a screenshot of your whole screen, with a decent resolution. NO CUT OUTS! I want to see everything on-screen.
I will not draw: Porn/hentai and more characters.
Good luck for you!

And thanks to everybody who saw my new art:


I'm very glad if the sweet comments and faves, they're very important to me, seriously : 3 Thank you and good luck!

I was already to go to my lovely bed, when before to turn off my pc I saw this:



yes, the clear and big resolution of the misterious pic that was showed for us days ago.

About my first impression I could say:
Seems it's the same artist from TP artwork, what I think it's good I like more realist painting also love the risks on whole pic.
I thought Link would be more adult in the next zelda (maybe 20-22 years).
What suprised me, he just looks the same of TP! (over 17-18) so sad.
There are people saying that the girl is the human form of the Master Sword, her design has some detail similar of the sword, but it's just especulation in my opinion.
It's too early to say something concrete. Let's wait for more news.

Other awesome thing I saw this week: the new Metroid!
watch the video here:
[link]
I didn't have time to search for information about it, however seeing the video the story seems to be before Metroid Prime, when Samus' planet wasn't destroied yet.
And omg look at those images, the people look so realist. I was wonrry Nintendo don't make graphics beautiful and serious like Sony and Microsoft.
