Description

Another print for AX 2014 *o* I'll be tabling with :iconhjeojeo: and :iconsachiko-the-biscuit: at L14! Please come visit!

...he's my favorite character in IY, so ///// (because he's mysterious, strong, intelligent and pretty...and I do ship him with Kagura...or Kagome (credits :iconyoukaiyume: for this) or Rin //sorry, they have a cute relationship//)

I'm really sorry for being dead again, as AX is coming up and I've been panicking and such. Not sure whether or not to ship the prints and/or business cards directly to the hotel room since I am a weakling orzlll Big shout-out to Haley, Jude and Matt for allowing me to share with them ;////;

I also have to really thank :iconneobirdy: who helped me a lot with the anatomy ;u; :heart: and my big sis and new big bro :iconulfhade: for their support :heart:

:iconotlplz: I apologize for opening up more commission slots, but I really need the funds for the rush-delivery business cards since I still couldn't save up enough for them initially ;-; I was counting on a buyer to pay promptly but it looks like she's refusing to pay ._.;;

These will be $35 each. And I will only take 2 slots for this type.

Alright, so honestly my life hasn't been the smoothest recently since last year. Long story short: My Grandma cheated on my grandpa. I moved out because the guy she's with I don't like and he's disrespectful towards my mom and I. I been living with my girlfriend NobleButlerSebastian for almost an entire year. My Grandma wants me home again, and wants my grandpa back i think? she still sees him and kisses him whenever we have a 'family reunion' at dinner. My Mom is always going on trips now so I hardly see her. My Grandpa recently got upset with me after finding out I was dating my best friend [I think he accepts it?? -m-]] and now I found out

:star::star::star::star::star-half: Overall
:star::star::star::star::star: Vision
:star::star::star::star::star-half: Originality
:star::star::star::star::star-half: Technique
:star::star::star::star::star: Impact

Vision: Very direct and to the point as it is easy to tell the focus of this art is the elder son to the demon Dog Lord from the anime Inuyasha, the elder son: Sesshomaru! or Lord Sesshomaru to any not on level with him.

Originality: Since he is a character from an anime others have also done artwork of him in various poses and situations or with other characters or even alone. So because of that it isn't fully original but the style and feel is original for each artist as I think an artist puts a bit of their selves into each piece they create. So original in its own way yet not so much as Inuyasha is, I assume, widely known and many know the characters and equally as many have done artwork of their characters with Sesshomaru included.

Technique: I love how the shading was done including the detail on the fur, the hair, the eyes, oh my where to begin? The sash is correctly done with nice folds and shading. His, I would call, classic placement of his fingers before he unleashes an attack, normally his green acid like whip of energy is very well done. I love the lines indicating the movement of the sin as his fingers move and bend into place ready to strike.

The lines of detail and shading with lighting on the hair is beautiful. The unamused look in the eyes fits perfect with his normal serious demeanor. The spikes and shading on the chest armor is nicely done with the not forgotten red string/cloth tie thing that present in the anime.

I looked and I was going to state the lines on the side of his face are a light violet/purple but they seem to change between a shade of red and shade of violet almost as if it is a mix or perhaps the color is tied with his blood and mood. Hmm...now I am pondering this, nice job.

The movement of the hair and fabric of his kimono is wonderfully executed, in my opinion, to show his movement most likely preparing to move into a spin if he summons forth the green energy/acid whip. (as is seen done in our first episode of meeting him, believe is Episode 5 or 6: The Aristocratic Assassin Sesshomaru)

I also love the flowers that went unforgotten the detail on them with the shading on his pointed ears and fluffy fur wrap with its detail to the fur and its shading. Excellent work!

Impact: This has me remembering and visualizing as well as hearing the parts of Inuyasha involving Sesshomaru. Since I do not see a sword hilt must be before the sword Tokijin though even in the first time we see him he has Tensaga (sorry if I spelled it wrong) unless it is out of sight due to angle and clothing/body blocking its hilt. If that is so then that's fine and if it was left out that is also fine since there have been, I think, times he has lost his swords and had to fight without them.

Overall: Excellent work! This made me fan-girl squeal with thoughts of Sesshomaru. The feeling to the picture feels right for Sesshomaru as the serious, sometimes cold and appearing heartless as he does is, in my opinion, hiding the fact he falls for Rin and see's her as someone to protect, a sweet and touching moment when it is shown he truly cares for her even if he tries to play it off as nothing.

The pose is beautiful and the sweep of the hair and motion of the clothing and fur is a wonderful indicator of motion. The pose of his hand raised some is a grand indicator, I think, to his elegant yet equally as deadly energy/acid whip we first see used to cut into and kill a pack of wolves as he seeks the fang with his servant Jaken (again sorry if I misspelled his name) and later gaining the human girl Rin after she is attacked, killed, and Sesshomaru finds and resurrects her using Tensaga later in the series and from then on she opens up more and stays loyally by his side riding with the pair on the back of their two headed dragon. (if it is not technically a dragon then again my apologizes)

I enjoyed this piece very much and I also enjoyed the energy and flow of the strokes with the color and attention to detail. Beautifully/handsomely done! Though did feel a little confused to not see the hilt of Tensaga but if it would be not seen due to angle and fact of body/clothing blocking the hilt from sight then I'm all good on that account.
