Fanart: Envy (wip)

[mokka_kahvi]

Oh hi fandom, long time no see.

I drew Envy again.

'Tis SFW, it's just a shirtless dude. :V


(Can now be viewed on DA, here)

There's actually a reason for this. See, I was drawing this for a friend as an extra birthday gift because the other thing I drew was already belated and I felt bad. So anyway, I thought I'd get some critique (maybe) on this before I go crazy colouring/shading it because I want everything to be ~perfect~. </obnoxious perfectionism>

Oh, and the stuff he's holding is supposed to be philosopher's stones/blood. It's artsy, see?

Also, apologies if you had to see this more than once. Cross-posted to envy_fans and fm_alchemist.

Great fanart! I think Envy looks better in your pic than in the anime :D Don't have any critique because everything looks nice. I don't even know whether you really need to colour it - it looks really good like that, quite atmospheric!

Wow, that's quite the compliment. I'm flattered. :>

Really? I'd hate to ruin the atmosphere of it, though I was planning on using subtle colours anyway. I guess I'll see. If it looks better colourless, I might just tone it instead. Thanks for mentioning that!

I think, if the colours are not too bright and cartoonish, it will work :) Or you could just colour the philosopher's stones bright red, and leave the rest just toned, to create a contrast...

Well, I'm just giving you some ideas, but I'm sure that whatever you choose to do in the end, it will look great :)

That's what I was thinking actually, although I like the sound of the contrast idea.

Thanks again; your input is very appreciated!
