Scraps, WIP, and Unfinished

Flight sketch by Tyrrlin

Yah, I was kinda bored today at a conference/meeting/arguement. :-) Fortunately I brought my sketchbook. Flamecrest enjoys a nice stretch of wings as her mate Snowcloud (name subject to change) accompanies her.

"A scream of loss and terror" by Tyrrlin

Mon, 19 Feb 2007 22:12:08 -0000

I wasn't originally going to upload this piece. The reason this piece is in my "Unfinished" gallery isn't because it's unfinished...it is. It's pretty much because I KNOW I messed up a lot of it and I need some serious CC. I already know I messed up the facial proportions and the beak (GAH! the beak!). What I'd like, however, is some good CC on how to get that glazed, terrified, panicked, weeping expression in the eyes. The idea is Flamecrest (alternate name for Tyrrlin) has just lost her life-mate in a sudden, unexpected manner. (That's not the whole story, but it'll do for now) How do you get that look to reflect in the expression of a character?

I swear, sometimes I do my best work when I'm distracted. My travel website decided to go *poof* right as I tried to process the last set of orders on Friday. Four Soldiers traveling...three plane tickets. *growl*

TDY dragon by Tyrrlin

I doodled this dragon while trying to solidify arrangements for a TDY trip for some members of my unit. The computer and website kept going down, and I was getting frustrated.
