That's a friend I had drawn some time ago. I should draw my own character some time... Too lazy.

Real drawings take wayyyyy too long. I wish I had the equipement to do fancy CGI drawings like everyone. Real drawings with pencils seem like a waste of time nowadays

EDIT: In fact when I read the topic title I was expecting some 'real' hand drawn drawings, but it seems nodoby does that anymore lol.

This is false...subjectively. Good CG takes a lot of time and effort, easily as much as traditional mediums. It all comes down to what you're used to. Have a professional painter and a professional CG artist complete an illustration of roughly the same level of detail and quality, and it probably won't take either one noticeably longer.

Speaking personally, I find the tactile feel of pencil on paper immensely more satisfying than trying to lay out a sketch on a computer, even using a tablet. On the flipside, CG color is more fun because it's easy to work with and requires minimal effort to adjust and correct. Someone who's been doing oil paintings all their career, though, might not find it the same way.

This is part of a larger series of sketches that I'll post when finished, but here's a rather gratuitous rough of my up-and-coming lizardgirl:



(I dunno about that particular top because I can't afford a coeurl beach halter in-game, lol)

I have less than no artistic talent when it comes to drawing or painting, but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate other people's artwork. I might even decide to make an attempt myself later when I get home.....

EDIT:

Totally unrelated, but I thought I'd just share my progress. I'll figure out something FF14-ish sooner or later. <_>

Even if it's unrelated, who doesn't love artwork of Weiss?
