Step Into Twilight by Stratadrake

Step Into Twilight

Description

My second attempt at the "Twilight wolf" of The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess game. My first attempt (which I still keep in my dA gallery, see here) kinda sucked -- I think I didn't adjust my scanner settings bright enough, plus the face didn't really look all that good to begin with, so I just had to try it again. A bit of closer study ([1]), a better sketch, and better colors, here is the much improved take #2.

Media: Inverted colored & ebony pencil (for further details, see here)
Time: About four hours
Size: 9x12", 75px/in at full-view
Other: a 2nd place premium at the 2005 Tillamook County Fair (Lot 20 - Mixed Media)

I have to comment on this because it is AWSOME!
I just starting playing Twilight Princess a week ago, and I love it so far!
You drew this amazingly and with such detail!
I'm adding this to my faves!

Good guess, but ... bzzt! Wrong answer! Read the description and check out the link to my dA gallery page for more information on how I created this effect.

it must be both, that the last one really sucked and that you're excited about the new game, to make you draw this green wolf. Why do you think he is green? so he can blend in with the forest? Why is he wearing a chain? what do those symbols mean on his forehead...and is that an earing. ooh it really brings out the color of his eyes....hehe. well it is a very good drawing. I think it must have took alot of time and nerves to make the fur look right. but it really looks nice. great job.

Because the trailer or kind of moniter the person has may look like he is green, and the reason why He Is wearing a chain because he was imprisoned when he was first pulled into Twilight , I don't know what the symbol means on his forhead, and yes It is an earring.

does that anwser your questions? (I am not trying to sound mean)

Yeah thanks, I already forgot I had even asked about that...

SonicWind on July 23, 2006, 11:10:51 AM

Very amazing... luv it ^^

Did you start with black paper or did you colour the sky yourself? I like the texture on the fur, but the face seems a tad askew... I think the far eye could stand to be more overlapped by the brow, or perhaps narrowed down a bit just to make it appear more three dimensional.

Nice job on the links of the chain... it's a small thing, but I apppreciate well-drawn chains.

XANALYOKO on January 1, 2006, 9:53:55 PM

wht game and this is so realistic heres my advise go into career get a job as a drawing artist for games you would make millions listen to wht xanalyoko has told you

Silent_Echo on August 23, 2005, 9:27:34 AM

Seriously, I keep on thinking that I can just touch that fur and feel how fuzzy it is...Hehe! Poor (No spoiler for you!)!

NekoAndManga on July 13, 2005, 10:53:29 PM

Strata doing fanart?? You have joined the dark side. Welcome, my friend *hands you lightsaber pencil* Good job as always! Grr to you and being so good at the negatives, still drives me nuts half the time I have to use the comp to check to see how each and every color will turn out when inverted. I feel out of the loop, I didn't even know there was a new one coming out.... O_O

Gerudowolf on June 13, 2005, 6:24:49 AM

Yay! more pics from the new game ( i got one too) This pic is so cool! I like the pose. and the moon loks so real.

Great job! ^_^'

firewingneko on June 11, 2005, 1:37:10 AM

Really color colors. Good work on the anatomy and fur.
I'll try getting the game if I can too X3

Rodimus84 on June 10, 2005, 2:13:24 PM

I like the other pic but I like this one better. I guess it's the cool pose. Again your work is fantastic.
