It's a happy sort of evil..

For Cwalen (who asked publicly) and MelloYell (who restated Cwalen's request).
And thanks to the player who supplied me information on their physical appearances.
I present: Jessy and Sydnie Blue.


A Brief Explanation of the Thought Process While Drawing:
I've always imagined Jessy as having semi-long wavy hair (based on the description, which implies that his hair is long enough to hide his eyes). I put the hat thing in there because (1) I wanted to be able to see his eyes and the hat provided a good excuse as to why his hair was out of his face, and (2) I was too lazy to come up with a hairline for him, which would've probably ended up more feminine than masculine anyway if I had, and that would be awkward considering that Jessy is, in fact, male. You can probably tell I'm not all that used to drawing men. I also envisioned him as having light hair, maybe a dirty honey-blonde or something (his chardesc doesn't specify), but obviously it didn't turn out like that (I feel like it implies brown more than dirty-blonde, but whatever).

Sydnie's supposed to be resting her head on his shoulder, hence the way her head and his head are turned. I don't know if this conveys that very well, but that was the intent. And as for my leaving out the blueberry stains, I just didn't feel like adding them (mostly because they would've probably ended up looking phony, and I wouldn't have been able to let myself show it here publicly).

I used two reference images (for things such as proportions, facial shapes, etc): for Sydnie's face, I used a small statue I was given several years ago at Easter. For Jessy, I used the man on the cover of a book I have.

Materials Used: Um...just regular paper that happens to be in a hardcover sketchbook, and a #2 mechanical pencil


....Maybe I'm adding just a little bit too much fanfare about this here. xD

[Cwalen]

Not enough fanfare to match my praise.

And you have the benefit of knowing the two characters.

Piscator showed me a sketch (that I hope will be shared) that seemed to capture them quite well as well, off a really basic data scrape and whatever they got through the forum.

[Piscator]

Not so much forum research as lucky guesses I'm afraid.

[MelloYell]

snick...such talent! and thanks for sharing the thoughts you had while drawing. very interesting. i think you did an especially good job on jessys nose.

and piscator! im blown away! thats the most active pic ive seen on this thread, and i love the vivacity it displays! so full of life!

[Snickie]

Piscator : I am impressed. It -does- capture them well.
Now I have a short list of people I want to see from you.
-goes to type PM-

[Piscator]

Thanks for the positive comments.

I haven't got your PM yet, by the way.

[Snickie]

I know. I'm still working on putting it together, and it's difficult because I'm on my phone right now. But I'm working on it!

[Piscator]

You'll probably guess who'd sent me the description, but I'll leave the giving of further details to the person in question.

[EchoMan]

So many great images!

[Naranjita]

The happy crew of the "Espíritu de San Buenaventura":

except for the girlie scream part

Seconded. I don't know why, but she reminded me of the children in the "Rule of Rose" videogame *shudders*
