This was a FAWN commission I recently did depicting a moment in a long feud between SCANDELOUS (Lucy Harker and Mina Murray) against the The Ríúil Kanes (Moira and Maeve Kane). Here Lucy and Mina are getting the better of the Irish family and putting the hurt on them with a reverse bearhug and a combo half-crab/hairpull.
Here’s a little bit of my art process:
First I sketch it out with a blue line
I think Mina and Moira (on the right) were a little too large and out of perspective in the blueline sketch, but through the power of Photoshop, I was able to get them the right size and in perspective. Once I had that right, I was able to do the PENCILS.
Then, it’s on to the flat colors! Basically, I take the colors and lay them down with no gradients or special effects. This helps if I need to change something later on.
Schedule Break-Call for Fan Arts
I’ll still be updating but if anyone wants to send in any Rival Angels fan arts, this would be a magnificent time to send them in so I can share them on the site.
Voting Incentive!
Vote because it’s good for you and good for me!
Whoa! Where’s the Ref ?? Oh, coffee break … when does he come back?
Referee is looking for his contact lenses!
Meanwhile, watching from a scrying pool an ancient wizard nods approvingly with admiration for the poses and holds.
Starts to sing The Rise’n o’ the Moon! to inspire the good side!
That or some good ol fashioned Jameson’s for inspiration.
And would that be coming from me own cupboards now? o.O
I thought you only stocked Ouzo! XD
Which one is it who’s trying to steal MY ring look!?!?
I believe that is Mina Murray and I believe that she would grace you with a response, if she, in her own mind, weren’t of such a higher station. But I could be wrong.
As stunning as the finished product is, seeing the artistic process just enhances it all the more.
However, ahem, they are the Ríúil Kanes…ríúil being Gaelic for royal, don’t you know. 😉
Agh, sorry! I blame stupid auto-correct. It is still hassling me, but this time it kept. 😛
How do commissions work? Just wondered.
Sure. There are certain times of the year that I take commissions. Often this is during comic conventions, or just when I know I’ll have some extra time.
It’s $30 for a single character commission. $50 for a two person (i.e. wrestling action) commission and add $20 for coloring. If you’re interested, feel free to drop me an email at archange[at]rivalangels.com if you have something in mind or have any questions.
