Rikumi's Yo!

[rikumi]

I'm back. I'm more frustrated with myself evermore. So... *Huggles everybody and turns away! Points~* My new thread. New drawings. I ain't confident about being able to update often, but I'll try. (I guess)

So here's the first one:

MapleStory(lame MMORPG) Episode 2 Characters [REQ of my friend's]

And The SPOILER:

 

Please do not open the link if you are not into homosexual/gay/BL/Yaoi. If you are/even semi-interested, please do not restrain yourself.

Aww... But here's a sneak peek.

Please comment, criticize or anything else lolly. And yes, I like drawing shounen ai.

[SigmaSD]

Wow now I'm jealous. I wish I could draw like that, but art is not my thing, far from it. I think it hates me.

Well anyway I looked at all your drawings and I have to say that they're amazing. Have you ever considered starting your own manga? I think it would be incredible if you did. Btw, that second pic about the two guys, did you come up with them or did you get them from a manga because I think I remember seeing some characters that looked like that.

Yes, I did. Still considering... *pauses* ...Still considering. I do draw solo pieces though. I'm just thinking whether my might to dump of laziness would get me to draw more layouts. (They seriously kill me.)

Btw, that second pic about the two guys, did you come up with them or did you get them from a manga because I think I remember seeing some characters that looked like that.

Uhm, I don't know how you should think of it, but I drew it with only two pencils(2B & 6B), an eraser, and a piece of rough paper on my table when my teacher was raging the monkey students sitting far behind in class.

I think the motif is always the same in BL world, so it's quite familar - two guys hugging, sitting around after bath~ 'Ya know. <3

Ah... the same problem most artists have to deal wit.

Well I don't know but it looks pretty amazing. Is there other stuff you've drawn besides the pics you posted?

[rikumi]

lol@SigmaSD: Reference: My old thread has a lame title. But it has every old pieces of mine there. Might have to ask Tiramisu where she put it. It's closed and locked away~ =\

Aww, but anyway, I'll be posting soon enough. And sometimes when I overdo it, I might not be able to stop! XD But it's only for single pieces. Layouts are still unreachable in heaven.

EDIT: You may try the links in my sig. =3

[SigmaSD]

wow that's pretty amazing. I really liked the Normal Destruction one and this one about Iori Kamiya

You sure have talent. Keep it up.

[Skylar1]

You do the limbs well, I like it. Yaoi is my favorite by the way. I don't draw it that often because I always have trouble geting the perspective right between characters, lol. Good job though, keep it up.

[Angelic~]

OMGGG your drawings are so awesome <33333
I wish I can draw at your level 2 years later haha, but I doubt that it's possible x___x''
I love the shading ^^ The body proportion are so awesome too >__< I can never get that right haha
Plz post more ^^

[naotavespaboy]

Hey Rikumi! Great to see you back. Hows everything going? Anyway its really cool to see a new art thread off you this place just isn't the same without your wonderful drawings. Anyway as is expected off you the new set are amazing I especially like the archer character in your first drawing. As always your style is unique in the sketchy yet finished fashion you have. I'm really looking forward to your next lot of drawings and reading some of your storyboards. Keep posting and don't leave us for so long time!

[rikumi]

Hey people~

@Ericgamer1 & Angelic~: Thanks for viewing my drawings~ Actually I don't think I do well on the limbs, especially when it comes to drawing hands. Sometimes I just missed the instinctual proportioning, which is very frustrating.
Anyways, thanks for the comments.
@naotavespaboy: Hi~~~~~!!! How are you, old pal?! Wow, it's been a long time since I last logged on, and there's many new faces in the FA section now. I feel old TwT Nice seeing you in my thread again and thanks for the support!

Here's a new candy:
He's an odd guy. (pardon me if the arms are too long for you~) =3

[lilminx]

wow youre really good, it reminds me of the manga books XD

[Angelic~]

Gyaaa~! Your drawings are so awesome ^^
I really LOVE the shading haha, I totally suck at shading x_x
For your latest, I think his arms are fine.. But his upperbody is a bit too long? >___<
When I draw people, I make their body too short haha xDD

[rikumi]

Thanks for viewing my art~~

And now something else:

Junjou pessimist!! Well, it's just a parody of mine for the Junjou Romantica series.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own the series. XD (Well, of course I don't.)

EDIT: Ah. It's the word "suki" on the balloon that says "like/love". =3 And yah, it's actually the same character I hung up on post #10~

[SigmaSD]

Well I don't know how its parody of the JJR series, but it does look pretty funny. The scarf reminds me of the one Akihiko used to wear when he was younger.

Keep up with the amazing drawings.

[rikumi]

Thanks SigmaSD~ Hah. I loved his scarf. XD

Anyways, another one! I can't seem to keep my hands off of this guy.
I even thought his name out~ Himesaki Setsu


Here. =3

[SigmaSD]

Wow you really know how to draw so well. I don't know why you don't think you would make a great manga artist. But anyway, what does his name mean anyway?

Knowing you, you're probably going to make a shounen ai pic of him.

[Skylar1]

Good. You're definently getting the anatomy right. Though, I can't say I'm a big fan of the line art; very hashed look. If you want my advice, try cross-stitching the clothes. Work on improving line speed by doing short lines in a row as fast as you can while keeping them the same width apart. Trust me, it will help with your overall drawing as well because you get speed into the lines.

Just remember this rule of thumb; the fewer the lines in the picture, the cleaner the look.

^__^

[rikumi]

@SigmaSD: Because I don't tidy up! XD I think his given name Setsu has a good meaning, but it's more suitable for manly men. >_>; And I just named him Himesaki because of the "Hime" word(which means princess~)
@Ericgamer1: Those are actually just sketches >_>; I don't plan to tidy them up(esp the lines!...omg), since I don't have the time. But thanks for the comment anyways. X3

[Zack Keynes]

Rikumi... your drawing are awesome! ^_^
although the bodies are so slim,, but still they look good. XD
