The Sun and Moon finally come together creating the Earth.
I wanted to create a romantic fantasy atmosphere.
I sketched, and inked this piece and then applied digital, hues, materials, effect using Photoshop only.
Perhaps this piece is a little too bright, I'm not sure, I'm still learning.

Comments and Critiques would be welcomed!

Carrie and Ai are powerful heralds that protect their Star Kingdom.
I wanted Majestic to be magical and fantasy like.
Majestic was scanned into Photoshop.
The difference is I did not ink this piece as I did with many of the others.
I believe I might have darkened it a bit to much and made it too saturated.

Critiques are welcomed of course! ]]> Sat, 12 Jul 2008 02:32:27 +0000 http://alenamation08.cgsociety.org/gallery/609395

I used Photoshop to try to give Dalia's surroundings, to be unworldly, and soft, even though her expression is anything but kind.

Why does she have such a fierce expression? Opolayian Grand is the name of an Empire that resides underwater and she is looking towards it, wondering how she can get in and grasp what is hers.

Feedback is welcomed of any kind.]]> Mon, 17 Mar 2008 06:02:17 +0000 http://alenamation08.cgsociety.org/gallery/594815

Tools: Pencil, photoshop. With this piece I did not hand ink or digital ink. I just scanned it in and started working from there. This piece was a bit different in that aspect from my all of my pieces.

Time: One day, I work fast when I finally found the right piece I want to work on. The only time it takes me a while for a piece is trying to find the right pose, something that know one does to much, or isn't always used.

Inspiration: Tiron is down but he isn't out quite yet. Tiron was inspired but the fact that you don't give up. You can see what looks like these white ribbon that seems to be grasping him. The enemy uses spirit attacks to try to suffocate Tiron's spirit but Tiron is using his left arm as a defense while shooting out earth base attacks through his right arm. Hope he wins.

Thank you for viewing and of course comments and critiques would help!

I was inspired by believe it or not someone with some crazy looking shoes, from there I developed Ferias V.

Ferias V is a passive but strong warrior born on Victory Planet in the 30th century. She enjoys a good smoke and chatting with other warriors. But when shes in battle mode she is someone else; using her sword to fight against rebels against the V empire. But then she suddenly sees a close friend in the Rebels campaign and he may be the key to victory or defeat for her Empire. Is she willing to listen or will she fight him, even if he is her only brother from Earth.

I wondered what Santa Clause was like when he was young?

Clause or Nick, was a rambunctious young man. He and Jack Frost would always seem to bump heads every season. Jack always seeming to never like Nicks good charm and honesty while Nick didn't care much for Jacks arrogance and winter storms. Clause with his Mistletoe shaped sword brashes it out against Jack in a never ending fight for Christmas. If you look closely at Clauses' sword you will see the scared face of Jack....

Teja is a powerful vampire, and lacks evil that some may think vampires have. She has compassion, when she doesn't transform but she is fierce and has the desire to protect then to inflict.

Sketched, inked, scanned into photoshop. I created Teja pose and then started adding colors, shading, materials. From there I quickly added the black background and streaks of red lines, and splatter that look to be like blood. From there I added shapes, and more colors for the power that is coming from her hand. It took about nine hours to create and I had fun making Teja a strong character. ]]> Wed, 24 Oct 2007 04:01:07 +0000 http://alenamation08.cgsociety.org/gallery/563517

I was inspired by Winter, and Christmas coming up. Its my favorite time of the year. I wondered if the season were gods would they battle to keep ruling every season?

Krystal fierce Goddess of Winter battles Sam the God of Summer arrogant and childlike always feels that he needs to keep ruling. But Krystal takes a no nonsense attitude towards Sam Summer, you see there being frozen by her ice after a defeat. She now dedicates herself to creating a total freeze over on certain parts of the earth. Respectful and cold she is 2nd powerful under Salia Spring.

Billie was sketched and then scanned into photoshop. I wanted her to be seen as a tough women ready to fight when needed. She isn't the type to sit down and act weak, she is a fighter!
She is also a vampire. Before she transforms she is still tough acting but she likes to wrestle, climb, hike and play sports. But when she transforms she is ready to tear someone with her power, of lighting!]]> Sat, 20 Oct 2007 16:25:51 +0000 http://alenamation08.cgsociety.org/gallery/551506

This character was sketched and scanned into photoshop.
All colorization, toning and effects were also used in photoshop.

Elnora is a smart Latino woman who uses monstrous wind elemental power in her form of a vampire! She has two sides to herself. When not provoked she is intelligent, and loves to sit down with a good book. But if angered she will destroy you with her gusty wind!]]> Thu, 18 Oct 2007 02:18:17 +0000 http://alenamation08.cgsociety.org/gallery/547781

This piece was created for my teacher. She wanted me to illustrate her. I put her in a warrior like outfit, handling a sword to fight the gremlins (bad people).

This was created in photoshop and then scanned and transferred inked and then colorized. With tones, shading. I put a castle in the back with a summer sort of feel to it!]]> Mon, 08 Oct 2007 01:39:21 +0000 http://alenamation08.cgsociety.org/gallery/530273
