Big Bang post 1
for this year's ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fmabigbang challenge, I had an honor of working with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mfelizandy and fractured_chaos and their story "Arcanum Parterfamilias". it's an epic tale taking place quite a few years after manga's ending, has some elements originating from first anime, therefore it should be treated more like an AU, than actual following of any series. it mostly takes place in a certain forgotten city and deals with past that was long forgotten. canon characters appear, as well as lots of lovely and amazing OCs. the story is still in progress (20 chapters!) and that's why, I'll be posting illustrations when certain chapters are posted (yes, I did more than one drawing this year as well...). please read this amazing tale!
[fic post]
The senior yevarshedaht swept into motion, their sticks blurring and sashes flying as they leapt and thrust, swept and spun. The boys on the walls cheered and gasped as Makhu escaped a broken jaw with a back handspring that rotated in midair and brought him back to his feet with his stick moving to catch Mishyael under one arm and flip him forward. Mishyael gave to the pressure, rolled over his shoulder, then stayed crouched close to the stone floor of the courtyard and twisted Makhu’s feet out from under him. Abrahn watched with a calm, weighing gaze as the two men wrestled.
motion and action scenes are not my forte. but I have to learn ad do those sometime, right?^^; watch me fail for the time being
concept sketches I did before getting to work on final illustrations. I had to get a hang of the characters first, try putting authors' words into my lines. it was a great fun and pleasure, and I hope I did justice to all of them. I added names next to all drawings, because most of those characters will appear later in the story, but I want you to be able to see how I imagined them. also, please note that I rarely draw animals so...^^;
this final sketch is a little surprise for my authors, because there are some characters and some scenes that deserve being drawn but didn't make ityet to polished illustrations^^; so yes, I did draw Asher for the very first time without your supervision and he may look off, but please forgive me^^; and is it wrong that I'm starting to ship him with Naomi? I dunno, twins seem to agree with me^^; Ed and Al are from... a certain scene I can't help but laugh at^^; Marissa and Theo are being cute just because
so there! go and read all amazing entries atfmabigbang!

And I don't know where you get the idea that you can't do action well. All of the action shots look amazing to me!
Thank you so very much for illustrating the story. We are so fortunate to have such a wonderful artist working with us. It has been such a pleasure.
no subject
phew, thank you! designing the boy was a little difficult, because he also has some mix of Aerugan genes in him, but not to such extend as his father. so yeah, some feature would stay, but some would have to be minimised^^; a tricky character, but I like him, very very much as well!
well, I don't do them as often, so they may look wierd^^; but hey, that's called practice right?^^; thank you for complimenting me!
and it's been a pleasure working with you too! I can't wait to read next installments of your work^^

about my color piece, some time ago a friend told me, that I usually make my colors grey. like, I use normal color for base but add grey tones for shadows. so I tried to make this one a little differently. and believe me, even when I compared backgrounds only, it is true that my previous works were grey O_o so yeah, if it's surprise for me, it's no wonder that you're surprised too^^; I'm glad it works for you though, thanks alot!

Yay Asher!
I love how you drew the Elrics "all grown up". Ed did finally make up for lost growth! He's still a trouble magnet, though. His kids are so cute, and Marissa is darling in her little-girl dress with the ruffles around her waist and her cute little sandals! Her brother's expression is just priceless.
The juxtaposition of Makhu's ferocious expression with his puppy's "Come play with me!" smile is hysterical. No matter how Makhu tries, he's just not going to look bad@$$ with a happy little puppy spoiling the effect. HEEE!!
Now for Naomi and Asher--EEEEEEEEE!!! I think I said it once before, but it bears repeating--you've drawn Naomi as recognizably her in-between age, and I haven't seen that too often. Now you've done the same thing with Asher. He's clearly not a child, and just as clearly not an adult yet either. I love how you've dressed him, with his shirt wrapped loosely (I love how you draw the drape and swing of fabric, too, there's a sense of its weight as well as freedom of motion) and the tail of his belt off to his side. His hair is perfect, the little braid makes me grin every time I look at it! His expression really catches his personality well.
OK, yeah, I have a soft spot for Asher. No, you're not wrong to 'ship him with Naomi. Just don't tell them about it yet, they're still tiptoeing around the idea!
Naomi's freckles are perfect.
Re: Yay Asher!
hahah couldn't help it^^ I wanted to surprise you with Asher. and I guess that if I drew Theo once, Marissa deserves a sketch as well. even if I don't know her that much, other than she knows that her mother likes to scream at her dad^^;
Makhu is very much trying to look dangerous xDD puppy is ruining the effect XDD I don't know, you created a character that very much works for me, he's hilarious XD
you know, you're really flattering me with all those compliments^^ especially that lately I feel like it's impossible for me to draw teenagers^^; I'm glad my designs met your expectations^^ the braid was too tempting XDDD I knew that he'd resemble his dad in a way, but wouldn't want to be a copycat^^ still, single braids are fun little details^^
hahaha then I'll have to shush the twins XDD but yay^^ they'd make a really cute couple^^
freckles are my own idea^^; figured that she may inherit some after her mom. but I didn't dare to ask you about them^^; once again, thanks alot for all the kind words^^

it shows? yay^^ looks like my training wasn't in vain^^
hahaha yeah, there are some sketches^^; glad to know someone is happy because of it^^ and yes, read it! it's really something!
no subject
No it wasn't, it's really starting to show! It was the first thing that I noticed when I first saw the artwork but I have a feeling you're holding back what you're really capable of, which is perfectly natural when trying out new things, right?
Sketches are always goooood xD If only I could sketch the same way but then again, I don't practice at all xD
