Falling Leaves & Wish - Poses

Here are my two characters for the contest, again. :)
This pic of Falling Leaves might be familiar to some of my blog visitors... I drew it months ago but have since returned to clean it up and of course add color, shading, and all of that fun stuff.
And here's more Wish!!

Please let me know what you guys think. Thanks!

"Moonlit Dance" - Flash Animation

At last, at last!
Although this clip is only 30 seconds, it represents a long time of diligent work - I've spent about 2-6 hours a week on this thing since December, and now here it is.

It was worth the effort for sure. However short it may be, the animation really is my best - I also love to see my two characters, Moon Dancer and Dusk, come to life on the screen.

The animation isn't top-notch yet; I haven't added the inbetweens which would make the motion more fluid. Likely, I will do that in time. The reason I haven't yet is because the due date for submittions to the DMA (Digital Media Arts) showcase was today and I really wanted to show this. :)

I am so glad I finally have an example of good animation to actually show what I can do. I hope you all enjoy this cute little clip.

Falling Leaves - Turnaround

Falling Leaves would like to say hello to you all again... and show you a few more of her "sides." ;)
Those of you who are aware of Falling Leaves' race might notice that something is missing. Where is her tail?! It isn't there because I debated whether not to include it, but finally decided I do want it -- because Falling Leaves wouldn't be Falling Leaves without it -- so I will still be adding that in the future.

Please please comment. This one's going in a contest. ;)

Wish

I'd like you all to meet Wish.
You guys can expect to see a lot more art of her soon. Also, there will be more art of Falling Leaves. I wonder why.... ;)

Edit: I changed her eyes a little to add more cuteness factor ;)

More Ryru & Ruka - Character Art Book

I'm almost done with my character art book now - yay! Here's a few more drawings I created of the characters Ryru and Ruka...

A full render of Ryru, just being ...himself:
A turnaround of both characters. (Front view, quarter view, side view)

And here's the first page of their section in the actual book! (Yes, this is the first time I'm posting a page straight out of the book, but it won't be the last...)

I'm here at home right now enjoying my spring break, so I haven't been posting that much, but I have lots of new art to show once I return to school and my scanner there. Please visit again soon :)

Poll Results: Winning Color Scheme

Last month, I asked you all which color scheme you liked best on One-Wing. I was very pleased by the turnout; it was a close run but 26% of the votes went to the winning color scheme, Black & Red (Dark Rose One-Wing).
-
And so I made some new art of her!

Likely you all have noticed this artwork other places as well...

I also printed this work out on posterboard and submitted it to the Juried Student Art Show here at the college I'm attending - soon I'll find out if I made it in.

Thank you everyone for your votes!!!

I will probably have a new poll for this month so keep watch for that :)

edit: I am sad that it will not let you click and enlarge the pic for some reason, so here's the full version. Please look at this guys. http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk222/elusive_dreams/Blog/DarkRoseOneWing1.png
