Moonlight Sculptor Illustration Contest

@ Musica

I think the artist was showing when Weed first got offered the class and he's sweatdropping like 'This is what I did all that for?'. The others are examples of what (he) thinks would have been more valuable hidden classes.

...Or I could be completely wrong and it's just a picture of Weed with some random strangers thrown in.

Actually, as I see the first picture it is a scene of a busy market or center square.
You can see Weed standing in the middle, and the reason for the sweat drop is Weed's depression.
Why is he depressed? The reason is simple.
Look at the other characters, look at their armor and huge weapons. There's a guy with a f***ing scythe there!!!
Now look at Weed, do you see how noobish he looks.
Well, Weed is bothered that his strongest weapon is this small, puny and weak looking sculpting knife, and he can't help but compare himself to the other players.

Poor Weed, he should know that size doesn't matter...


Btw, Arcedemius, you should decide on a horizon line for your picture. As your drawing lacks one horizon your characters placing seems weird and out of place. Weed and harp girl have one horizon while two hand sword guy and helmet warrior have a different one. Scythe guy and bracelet girl are different from the rest as well, while cat character just seems to float there.
I like the drawing and it is clear that you put a lot of work into it, but you should check out books about perspective.



FlySly, I'm a huge fan of pencil drawing so I hope to see more from you, keep up the good work.

@Vielfras

That's why I said I thought they were imagined up by Weed. They just seem to be there without actually being there.

Um... is it just me or is Raem.Memiroa's Submission not loading?

Okay guys, Weedis the type who decides on things that he can see, so he most likely didn't imagine them up. The Writer also stated that the pic was just "weed and random people". So yeah.

MOD EDIT: Rude/inappropriate content. Don't declare people's art to be "wrong"; please be more respectful to artists and their interpretations.

Spoiler:

EDIT: ooh new submission... let's see... geh.

A few problems there, dear artist. for one, that looks to epic to be Weed. XD Weed is supposed to look average at best.

Two, it doesn't really make sense... if Weed saw Foxes, he'd be thinking "moneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoney-" and so on, not "Oh hey, foxed. i'm going to take out my knife and bow, get on my knees, and let these foxes jump around me as a wolf gets near my back. no problems with that, especially not when I massacurred it's kind basically everywhere I went... and even enslaved a pack of them once...(no really, he enslaves a pack of wolves) yep, no problems there." Normally I'd say those were some of the fox sculptures he made, but then again, one of them is flying, then.

Three, Weed's knife is EXTREMELY fancy. like, jewel encrusted and stuff. that seems a bit plain, don't you think?



there's a bit more, but I don't want to seem like I'm ranting, so I'll stop for now.

oh i thought that the knife was well, a normal engraving knife that zahab had received from the (would be)queen xD. And yea i agree, weed was way less handsomer than that xD, and there should've been blood all around him imo, but what an artist creates is what an artist creates

Well MCs kind of have to look epic in drawings, it's what draws people into reading novels. Frankly, a cover of Weed sitting and carving doesn't quite convey what the book actually is about... which is fantasy and adventure

Random sketch of Weed I felt like doing, though he looks a tad Western on the pic...

Spoiler:

You can see the drawing here:

Will put up something less sketchy at a later date.

Wow elkin!!!! I can't wait to see, what'll you come up with!!! The sketch look good to me! Not too handsome, but serious look - which we know he'll have most of the time, and his works.... but I don't know.... was he ever Indoors while working on them? I think so far he wasn't.... So maybe on the street?

All in all, I love the way you draw, so do your best for the one you're submitting!

Chibi: Very nice! Weed, sculpting alone in a room diligently next to the window, despite how small the wooden cabin and table truly is, he shows no signs of uncomfortableness and masterfully sculpts true pieces of art! Magnificent!

Dark: I have to admit, this is pretty good. You captured the image of Weed's patience and skill in sculpting very well... however, the story shows that Weed sculpts all sizes of statues, yet he rarely makes small ones. Even for foxes and rabbits, he made average-size ones, since a small project has a large chance in becoming a fail piece. We all know Weed is the type who strives for the best results. However, Chibi and I will be waiting patiently until this picture is finished.

Oh, thanks for the info, was never quite sure what size Weed was working on. Besides, the pic was too small for me to draw him on the streets with large-ish statues ;; Glad you guys liked it!

Is Seoyoon's ingame eye colour explicitly stated somewhere? If so, what are the colour of her eyes? @.@

Well, she's Korean, and I haven't met a single Kroean with any eye color other than brown or black... I'm black, but I'm guessing she has brown.

Yep, I meant ingame, though. As her hair is red ingame >.<

I was planning brown/black, but it seemed kinda plain, so I thought to inquire here first xD

Jerk. Insulting my eye color.

Okay, now seriously. It never talked about her in-game eye color, but I'm guessing red.
