Midorisa's art thread

[Midorisa]

So here it is at last, I'm starting this art thread I've thought starting for a long time. Thanks belongs to LoonyBob and a couple of other nice people who suggested I did this!
I'll be posting mainly Final Fantasy related fan art, at least for now. Let see how things get going . For my history as an artist, I briefly could say that I have always liked to draw but it really got me hooked again for real about two years ago. The more I do it the more serious I've come to be with it, and I'm striving to be always better, technically and in all ways.

I'll start by posting the paintings I have right now on my deviantart site as well, and I'll try and update this as often as I update my gallery in devianart.

Here's the first one, going from oldest to the newest:
ffix_ruby_by_midorisa-d7ylusq.jpg So its Ruby from FFIX .

Second:

ffvii___vincent_attack_by_midorisa-d86qnwt.jpg Some more action with this, Vincent from FFVII.


That's that for now, I'll post more soon, I just wanted to get this thing started. I appreciate all the feedback and support .

This time with traditional media with inks and watercolors, done in early winter/fall 2014:

And this is from the Xmast holidays 2014 I spent in the countryside (in the middle of nowhere).

Right now I'm trying to work myself out of a little art block I've been suffering of for some time now. It's would be great to get all my unfinished FF pieces done, as when I've been counting that there are at least 5 or more of them at the moment, some of them almost done. But anyways, thank you for interest!

Holy moley! You're awesome. I really like how you captured the art of IX with the ruby picture. Awesome job!

[Loony BoB]

You had my heart jump for a tiny moment there xD. I suppose that would have been one kind of feedback also, so yeah

[Midorisa]

Yeah well in some ways it kinda does, as those characters have quite the same design, the black/read colors and a gun as a weapon etc . And I've watched Hellsing but it has been really many years ago . Alucard is quite badass tho

Thank you! I really like the more stylized characters in FFIX, the art style is not realistic but it fits the game so well and looks good . The art is one of my favorite things in that game, as it really is nice that they made it look really different from the more realistically proportioned characters in FFVIII for example.

This is one of the works that I had for ages on my Pc. As I had some bad art block eating my inspiration, I had been more inactive for a couple of months or so. I'm still not over it completely, but I've no longer difficulties that much with it. I'm still searching my own style in a sense, the way that feels it's mine somewhat. I really want to bring more colors into my work, build the sense of depth and develop my pieces as a whole, with composition, color theory and balance and finding the style that fits me the best. The wish for more colors is showing here, as in some point I just got tired of it being so plain and somewhat stiff and dull, so i just started to put some really rough brush strokes and putting in complimentary colors.
