EEEEEEEEEE! Oh my goodness - I'm speechless. Thank you! This is such a GORGEOUS drawing. I love all the tones in his skin, especially the redness of his cheeks and nose. His expression and body language are just perfect, with that scandalous curve of his shoulder and covering his chest so timidly. The shape of his face is also excellent and like how I imagine it. And that hair is so floaty and soft-looking, and I love discovering all the hidden colors in it - reds and greens and such.

How big are your drawings on average?

*excited* KIYAAAA! :heart: Omg, I LOVE this one! :heart: This is so beautiful, I mean... Thank you so much! He looks so real, as if I can touch his skin (and I really want that, oh yes xD)! Ah, he looks so excellent, so perfect, so... *crazyness* It's just like kittehness says! His body language is just... perfect. I really can't say anything more about it, it's too perfect *cries* I really love it.

I'm SO glad that you like it so much! =D Your comments, just like this one, actually keep me going. You make me want to draw him again and again!
So thank YOU!
:iconvihmakivi:
I appreciate your comment SO much. I know that my art is getting an expert evaluation here and that makes me feel even more flattered =)
Thank you for pointing out all the details that you liked, I'm so glad you noticed that I used different colours in his face and hair! I really enjoy combining the coloured pencils, just because they don't actually mingle with one another.

My drawings are almost always the size of an A4 paper. How big are your paintings?
:iconkittehness:
Awww well I'm glad it's appreciated. :blushes: I'm no expert, we're all just learning as we muddle along :)

Not only is this one of my favorite characters of all time, (:heart:) but so well done. I love finding hidden colors, it's something that I sort of unconsciously look for in artwork, and strive to put into my own but it never comes out the way I want it to. :/

Ahhh, my paintings are all different sizes. Sometimes I need to do a BIG painting, sometimes I need to do a small one. For reference, this: [link] is about 23x25.4 cm, and this: [link] is 20x33cm. This: [link] is about 28x40cm.

Ahh, that's just so sweet of you :D You make me so happy :heart: And that's really a fantastic thing, I'm very sick, on the moment -.-

You make me happy too with your drawings and especially with your alternative ending =)
Aww, I'm so sorry to hear that you were sick. Are you feeling any better now?
:iconvihmakivi:
But you surely know what to say about art. Other than "nice" or "well done" =D

What do you mean it never comes out the way you want it to?! I think you are excellent with colours! There are so many different shades of blue and gold in the "heart made to be mine" painting, all melting into one another. Beautiful and skilled.

Do you sometimes do REALLY big paintings? I always draw on standard-sized papers... for example this one (one of my few paintings) is on A2 [link]
:icondauwdrupje:
Not exactly... I've a chronical illness, CFS (chronical fatigue syndrom), yet for 4 years. I can't go to school, etc. But a week ago, I was indeed extra sick, and that's a little better now^^ So, thanks :heart:
