[ART] A kiss for Manda, a successful hunt, and tumblrdump.

And with this I have reached a milestone on my quest toward being able to confidently produce fanart; posting it on dreamwidth. Make no mistake; I feel terrible about my art. I figure a lot of it is due to my depressive period and lack of practice though, so I'm gonna work long and hard at overcoming it, because -gasp- I'm rediscovering that drawing can be pretty fun! So here it is; the first time I've taken drawing seriously since 2009.

Spoilers: None.
Warnings: A naked dude of which you can see no unmentionables and all of one man-nipple (Does half an ass even count?), also blood and a dead bunny.
Notes: All images link to full-size versions, so click away.

A while ago I wondered what to draw, and since Manda had offered to write me porn (the most valuable of currencies, I think you'll agree) I let her prompt me. She wanted a KuroFai kiss on the forehead with Kurogane getting all embarrassed and blushy-faced. What resulted was the first piece I've actually finished from sketch through lineart to colouring in several years. (I don't feel very good about the result, but when do I ever? If nothing else I can at least feel good about the fact that I finally did it.) My first adventures in PaintTool SAI. I've no idea how tan people blush, but I assume they're at least not as luminous as pale people. I am also never going to shade anything as dark as Kurogane's jacket ever again I swear, I couldn't see jack of what I was doing. Thanks for the opportunity Manda, hope you enjoy~

What I am actually most pleased with in this dump! Have raptor!Fai. I sort of wanted to make him a lot more birdlike but this piece had started as a sort of anatomy-practice and I also wanted to keep the bits of the human body that I liked... so it became a crossbreed thing. I may have to draw more bird!Fais with stuff I left out from this one, like tailfeathers and birdfeet... And the bunny is not in human form because I was too lazy and was not about to figure out another person in there, also "How do I human gore?!" Just pretend Fai is a bird or the bunny is a person and the amount of blood should be more proportionately accurate to the carnage.

And then we have some old sketches and such, most of which has already been posted on tumblr, but I figure there's no harm in cramming them in here as well while I'm at it.

Oh my god I can't believe I'm actually doing this.

Vamp!Fai is gorgeous and hot. I like how the shades of his eyes and his hair match and that awesome collar, not to mention the collarbone!

I generally like how you draw Fai with his hair down.
And Kurogane's epic face in the kissing picture. He's so 'OMFG, what is happening'? 8D
And the kiddies are just cuuuute. :3

(Only predator!Fai's hair looks a bit to, erm, "full", it's usually less voluminous but who cares anyway, because the important parts - i.e. the ass and the nipple - are A+)

About the crossdressing: really, I don't get people. I bet they are hating crossdressing for the same reasons why some so called Tsubasa-fans hate the idea of Fai and Kurogane being gay; because they think that makes them less "manly". O_o
(Fuck society's general idea of manliness, really.)

Totally agree that porn is the most valuable currency, because writing it requires a certain skill and knowledge (and Uakari is so ridiculously good at it, how does she doe that, HOW?).

Please keep up sharing your art love. <3

Oh my goodness thank you for such a lovely comment!

And yes I try to draw Fai's hair down as much as possible, because it is gorgeous and it never happened in canon and that is a crime! Then again I pretty much always like to mess with characters' hairstyles if possible, aha~

Which is partially why Faibirdie's hair turned out the way it did, I guess; I try to make the characters' hairstyle recognizable but beyond that I just go with what I think looks good at the moment. |Da Thank you for ass 'n' nipple compliment! ...I am rather pleased with that nipple, not gonna lie.

Ahaha, the funny thing is there are KuroFai fans who're against Fai crossdressing, so it's not even a "gay" thing. It just confuses/amuses/infuriates the hell outta me, but eh, I figure the most effective counter is to flood the fandom with even more Fai in a dress. |D

AND YES MANDA'S PORN IS GOLD. It's fantastic. It's the best. I loooove it and I can't wait until she finishes what she's writing for me at the moment. *A* (Except I can because it's totally worth the wait.)

Thank you for your kind words fkashckajs<3
