Four Worlds - Birthday Gift

Published:

Description

Happy birthday ~erin-hime! It's past midnight when I'm writing this, so technically it is the sixth. ;)

From left to right -- Meredith "Merry" Lapsley of Retribution, Kayden Vance as Knight Aeolus from Earthia: The Knights of Gaea, Adrianna Roderick as Sailor Wind from Elemental Spirits, and Jenni Hannigen/Shinzui from Mirror Image. The first three are stories (with the first one being a collab), while the last one is a RPG.

Originally I had this grandiose thing planned out, where those four where in the back and four old/retired characters were kneeling in the front (Odessa Wilson from an old Harry Potter RPG, Persephone Porter from her first online story, Daisy Giordano from another Potter RPG, and Adrienne Beckerman from a third Potter RPG). I even drew this on a 9" by 12" piece of paper (rather than the usual 8.5" by 11") to ensure everyone would fit. But then practicality caught up with me halfway through sketching this and I realised that Erin was only using those four characters right now, so it would be pointless to include the ones she wasn't using.

Although I drew Merry first, I'm happiest with how Aeolus turned out. Although the fact that her bangs hide her eyebrows, as well as the maroon stripes on her skin, make her look kind of creepy, but that could be just me. :O_o: As for Wind, she recently redid all the profile pictures on there, giving Sailor Wind a proper olive skin tone (since her mother's from Greece). I'm not sure if I made her skin too dark, but I do kind of regret making her eyebrows a different colour than her hair. It looks like she's dyed it, when she's only dyed the purple bangs. And I just want to point out that I had sketched this before the site had gone up, so I had no idea what Merry's height was. ^^; I see I wasn't too far off.

I apologise for making Shinzui barely visible. I'm just really bad at planning, I guess, because I never intended the three of them to take up so much space. :O_o:

I found it interesting, during colouring, to see how far I had come, drawing-wise, from last year's birthday gift (wow, has it been a year already?). Not that anyone but me really cares, but I thought it was neat to see. I also had a thought that Erin would have a tough time picking which site to display this on, if she chooses to. ^^;

Anyway, happy birthday Erin! I hope you enjoy your present! :D
