Forbidden love must meet secretly, away from prying eyes and hardened hearts.

The dark elves' face looks a little weird. But over all a very (very!) nice pic =)I really like how the hair and the clothes, especially the Gi (is it a Gi, or am I just confused?), come out.And noooes, Iksar aren't sexy. They ares just weird, old, stinky lizards!

I'm not old! I'm not stinky! (if you oil your scales and bathe regularly you can avoid that unpleasant over-musk odor)
 
and I'm not weird.....
 
Well ok I might be weird, but definately not old or stinky
 
 
And I have to agree, honestly and all joking aside. The picture over all is very  nice, but the anime- dark elf face doesn't quite fit perfectly with the rest of the more 'realistic' CG , I still like it however.
 
Cept for the lack of Iksar *sighs* we never get no lovin

Hey.... Iksar get love! (More than Ratongas or Kerrans, anyway >_&gtSMILEY.
 
 
And, yeah... I'm not really into big-eyes. Well, I'm not really digging the guy's face, either, but that's just my taste.
 
Pretty good work.

If the work at www.dragonsart.com is all yours, I must say I think you have done much better pieces in the past. I really like the way the modle for the Dark Elf female scout came out. She still has a little bit of the over-glowing skin like this one, but her face and body are much better. The only real thing I do not like about this piece, and maybe you intended it, is the 180 degree difference in styles of the two modles. I could understand that maybe you where wanting them to strongly visually be from different worlds, adding to the taboo feel of them being together, but it really makes the piece seems more odd and it just doesn't fit. The seperate elements of this piece are very well done, it's just that they don't work well together. All in all, very nice work, bad compisition. SMILEY

I was trying for a different look with the dark elf... but I agree that after looking at it again, it might have been too much.  I've scaled back the more "anime-ish" features a bit, so hopefully the inky doesn't look TOO comic-like.
 
As far as the skin... it's not easy to portray a dark skinned character in poor lighting.  They tend to get drowned out, and I wanted the couple to be visible.

Nice concept. The art is well done too.The only crit I have is the expressions on their faces. The dark elf seems too "innocently" happy. I guess I picture dark elves more seductive.. so more of a saucy kind of grin versus the cheruby-type smile.I'd have to say the same for the male in the picture. I'd tone down his smile down just a wee bit.Just my 2 coppers SMILEYNice composition and art work though!

I agree, very well done. But i prefer to think of dark elves in the classic drow sense with the males being subservient. The dark elf should have a more menacing or mischievous look to her.

My best friend in game and i both play dark elves and she makes me call her Mistress:smileytongue:

I even used to wear the old blissful awareness sometimes to look like her slave. But then they took out the strappy graphic.:smileysad:

I use Poser, DAZ, Bryce, Photoshop and some misc. things.  It's a combination of many different programs and sources.


The only crit I have is the expressions on their faces. The dark elf seems too "innocently" happy. I guess I picture dark elves more seductive.. so more of a saucy kind of grin versus the cheruby-type smile.

Despite the old saying "opposites attract", I felt that the two characters from different worlds would be similiar... either both good or both evil... I choose good, hence the more innocent smiles.


I agree, very well done. But i prefer to think of dark elves in the classic drow sense with the males being subservient. The dark elf should have a more menacing or mischievous look to her.

While true in "classic" drow society, since I made the dark elf "good", I thought the more traditional role was appropriate.


My best friend in game and i both play dark elves and she makes me call her Mistress  I even used to wear the old blissful awareness sometimes to look like her slave. But then they took out the strappy graphic.

Umm.... not quite sure how to respond to that.... hehe... but more power to you!  I guess you will be waiting for the /bootlick animation... :smileyvery-happy:


Very nice.

Thanks!
