This is Sienna, the mischievous falcon. An Atavaian, from the MUD Achaea. I had this lying around as lineart forever, and even when I coloured it I couldn't upload it. Why? Because of Lancea, that's why. I wanted it shaded so I got some help from my amazing girlfriend and voila. Shaded just for you, Lanc, just for you. Admittedly, I didn't highlight it. After all I don't want to keep you from doing your thing.
Also, I know the wing anatomy isn't perfect. In fact, there's an extra joint in there, but you can't just slap avian wings on a human body, and I detest angel wings. They still look pretty decent for being drawn with no reference, at least to me!
"Song seamstress Sienna Yuridja, the Mischievous falcon". That's what happens when characters can have custom titles and suffixes. Admittedly, I rarely ever use the title or the surname, so for all points and purposes, this girl is named like I put it at the top. She's a sylvan elementalist and concoctionist, wonderful wordsmith and probably bisexual. Or like one of her friends put it; "You're a wingaling dyke."
This...was sort of my first actual attempt O.o I've never been able to draw them either, and these I drew without reference. Can you believe I'm proud? ;___; I'm not a boastful guy, but I'm really proud of them.
Tell me, what's the future like? Wait! Wait! Let me guess!
...Flying cars, right?

Yay Adi! A picture! ^_^ I love the wings!! I absolutely love them! -feeds cookies- I draw very... err simplistic wings... XD I like them but I love the detailed ones.
Very nice combination of traditional media and CG. The background is especially enchanting. So, no, I don't mind the lack of highlighting or shading in certain areas. At 4 am, you're forgiven
But I DO have a gripe with the wings' anatomy, as they are such a major part of the picture. This is just a mad biologist rambling, because the wings look good as they are, but they aren't "anatomically correct" birdwings.
Of course they're not. I had to give them an extra joint because otherwise they just wouldn't fold up in a manageable way. They're also a bit too small, but at least of decent size. I think her bones must be hollow to make her light enough to fly. Feel free to provide me with a sketch of how the wing anatomy SHOULD be. It could be very useful if I ever draw another Atavian! Also, thank you, I meant for the shading to be kinda sloppy, and I had a lot of help from my girlfriend because I can't really shade for shit. The end result is definately passable for me.

University work! Yes, I sketched this up and put on base colours months ago, but I didn't get around to finishing it. I've only recently gotten a hold of my will to draw again, so expect some stuff from my current comic project to end up in the scraps section! But yeah, I have been very busy with my midterms. Good to hear from you though!

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
We have decided to organize this contest to motivate people create more art. We would be happy if you would give it a try. You can think of anything you want, just make sure you still respect the theme. You can choose to illustrate dreams, nightmares or even both of them. Anything you want! Try not to be macabre if you are picturing nightmares. Respect the rules, have fun and most important, follow your heart!
