Rhys Mayiessen Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 [color=seagreen]Yes this is a guy, don't ask me why the artist of Demon Diary felt like making him look like a girl but she did. Okay so this is Raenef a character from a really good manga called Demon Diary. He's suppose to be a Demon Lord but lets just say he's not to good at it!^^ This was my first time drawing a dragon (it looks fat) and someone with that much detail in their hair >.< Anyways enjoy...the shadings screwed....[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terra Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Oh, I like it! So you drew this looking at another manga ..? Anyway, it definitely does look like a girl. But a very well-done girl. I really like the details in her hair and her clothes. And the dragon looks good ... Though at second glance, I have to wonder what that part of his body is that's in front of his wing. It looks sort of like a leg. Really nice job, though. The shading makes it look very realistic. Well, realistic for a boy-girl holding a dragon at least.

Rhys Mayiessen Posted November 3, 2003 Author Share Posted November 3, 2003 [color=seagreen]Lol thanks, yeah its always hard to believe that Raenef is actually a guy when you're reading the manga unless he's in chibi form...there he actually looks like a guy^^;;[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shippo Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 [color=darkblue] [size=1] Girl or guy, either way, that is an [b]awesome[/b] drawing. I [i]wish[/i] I could draw like that... The folds in the clothing are great. i always have a problem with the folds in the clothing>.< but it seems like you have no problem with it^_^ I dont really see anything wrong with the shading...but...im still an amatuer at drawing, so what would I know ^^;; [/size] [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanariya Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 That's a great picture! I like it very much, and the boy does look like a girl. Cute little dragon he has. The eyes are beautiful; I find to pay more attention to a character in a picture that has nice drawn eyes for some reason. I wish I could draw that good. Anyway, nice job :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhys Mayiessen Posted November 5, 2003 Author Share Posted November 5, 2003 [color=seagreen]Lol thank you all^^ I'm sure you would be able to draw like that if you tried Shippo^^ I'm not that good of an artist[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 I've wanted to read Demon Diary for quite a while. I must say, your drawing is fantastic. You shaded the folds in his clothing exceptionally well, and I'd imagine that drawing his hair also took a certain amount of skill. His hands seem to be a little on the small side, but perhaps it's just me. Anyway, awesome work. And I love the dragon. ^__^ ~Dagger~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Samedi Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 It does look like a girl... but who really cares? Your drawing is fantastic, really well done. Chin is a bit pointy, but that is my only gripe. Aside from that... great shading, great detail, the hair looks good, the dragon looks very good [though a bit odd in proportion somehow o.O]. You are a top-notch artist, keep it up. And I think you should try more like it. It is definitely a success. 8.5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 It's very well drawn, indeed. I do admit it looks like a woman even if it is a guy, but I still think the way professional manga drawers draw guys all cute-like has the same effect. Those ones look like girls too (I don't know why they do that, but meh.) So it's good. Heck, I can't draw it. And dragons are the shiznit, meh. [b]My Rating:[/b] 9/10 SMASHING, love!

Syn Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Ooo. I didn't read the whole thread and just saw the picture >>; Its Kuja all over again. Anyways, I think its really good, maybe a little bit too feminine but nothing drastic. The little dragon gives it a nice touch aswell, hes so cute ^_^; The only thing i'd change would be his eyes, they seem kind of squashed to me :/ that could just be me of course. 8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhys Mayiessen Posted November 6, 2003 Author Share Posted November 6, 2003 [color=seagreen]Hehe I agree that the hands look small...I had some problems with them. I always didn't like the way I drew the eyes on him though I thought that I drew them a little too big! They just make him look more like a girl.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drawing looks very nice. The shading is very soft which fits the overall feel of the drawing. Really, I have never heard of this manga, so I really have nothing to compare from. It looks fine. People are just their own worst critics, so you judge yourself with the biggest knife.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klinanime1 Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Another great pic! The eyes are a bit off, and the shin's a ~bit~ pointy. The arms are off, and hands, but the shading is terrific, and the dragon is done really well. I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhys Mayiessen Posted November 8, 2003 Author Share Posted November 8, 2003 [color=seagreen]The chin's suppose to be pointy...that's the style of the manga^^;; Don't ask why, the artist just has some weird way of drawing guys that look like girls with pointy chins...[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
