I have one of those lovely books that distills folklore into easy to swallow chunks and in that book I found this fairy or sprite or whatever (I have mentioned before: I'm not a reader, don't care for it) named Ariel. I doubt very highly he had anything to do with grapes.

The title refers to an interesting nugget I discovered while writing a paper for a class entitled "America and Immigration". It turns out there are about 36 million Americans who identify their heritage as "Irish". I would now draw your attention to the fact that are about 6 million people in actual Ireland.

wow 0__0!! seriously... 36 million Americans? ahaha, that's too unbelievable!
hehe, i love how your oekaki changes in focus, from the background and is detailed on Ariel!

I think my monitor is too dark to make some details >__<;; sucha a waste! *needs to upgrade my monitor*

 

Great picture:-)
I love his pose and expression, and the drawing style you used. The wings look cool.
:-)

Well... what can you say? The Irish are the highly charming people who invented Guinness (not to mention that that rare red hair is a highly sought out prize).
I'm not quite sure if I've ever seen this style from you but I think it looks fantastic anyhoo! Lineless but nothing stuck/too blurred together. It's been a while since I've seen such a cute little naked man! Like a little Bacchus ^-^!

Holy shit, dude! The perspective and everything is wonderous, but, my god! The fucking solids mate! THE SOLIDS! A+, my friend, A+.

 

I really love the perspective on this! icon And all the shadowing of the figure in contrast to the background, each bit catches my eye for different reasons. =X I like the sense of not exactly being able to tell where the figure it looking, yet getting the hint of it at the same time. Gah. .. I'm not very good when it comes to talking art, lol. I hope this made sense.

 

  • N3L May 16, 2008, 1:47 pm

icon Heck, I'm so happy that you're drawing again too!
Your stuff is so gorgeous and your incorporation of shadows never ceases to amaze me.

 

  • OQM May 16, 2008, 2:49 pm

That is such a neat perspective and I love how the figure is shadowed out!

 

as am i beef as am i! awesome solids!

 

From the thumbnail I actually thought it was a photo :P Very nice!

 

What a wonderful atmosphere. The contrast is nice.

 

i'm glad you're back to draw! *__*!! Nice angle/perspective of this oekaki, you drew it perfectly!
A bit eerie that's there's no face but it gives it special quality :3

 

  • Loika May 17, 2008, 9:41 am

*A* Amazing job with hard pixels. I feel as though I can almost see the expression on the face.

Wow, how gorgous is this! The colours! The textures! The richness of it! This is so my sort of thing plus its a bit scary too with that face that is the essence of torment! icon

 

  • beethy May 16, 2008, 10:35 am

holy cow....
this right here blew me away
it's so emotional and dramatic
incredible

 

If you don't mind, I'm going to be archiving this one icon

 

  • Zen May 16, 2008, 11:49 am

*________* Stunning.....just stunning!! icon

 

Jesus-fucking-christ, this is balls-to-the-wall, full-on, no holds barred magic. You've turned PaintBBS into some kind of magical, beauty-producing machine, my friend. The colors, the details, the design: completely flawless. EXCELLENCE in every way.

 

  • OQM May 16, 2008, 2:47 pm

I always love the luminosity you give to your works.

 

my god, that's just. amazing. no words.

 

didn't get to comment on this earlier, but the details is just breathtaking *__*~~ seriously, there's not one inch of your work where it's not visually pleasing to the eye!
I especially adore the contrast between the rough details and soft flesh colouring. The choice of colours are great, my favourite aspect of this piece is her lips *__*!! so so pretty!

wow wow CRAN! Awesome debut *__*!!
I love how dynamic this piece is and the drawing style of your profiles! hehe
hope to see more oekakis from you! Do you have a deviantart? *__*!!

 

Whoa! Such detail! I like the sharp yet blendable colours you used here :) I like the perspective too!

 

Working two swords, like a regular pro'!
Smashing intro picture, do stick around and show us more. icon

 

awesome piece! love the detail and the shading and the movement and...well, yanno, the whole thing really. icon

 

  • Ami May 16, 2008, 7:57 am

WELCOME! Hi, hi ... icon . You'll love it here at Ochi.net, and even if you don't love it (though it's pretty hard not to love Ochi.net) then everyone here will definitely love you, regardless! I mean, look at this arts ...
Maybe a noob of Ochi.net, but definitely not a noob of drawing, that's for sure.
I really like the epicness. The grey/purpley tones and the pose make a really good action shot. I also absolutely love the perspective of the sword in his left hand!

 

We salute you! I love the precise lines of this and the shading in the background. It is very satisfying to my eyeballs! And i love the simplicity because that only makes it more striking. icon

 

Um... I can't get over how awesome this is icon I've opened it twice now and am just like: "durrrrh.... dat's purdy wondurfull" ::refrains from licking the screen.

 

  • OQM May 16, 2008, 9:19 am

Holy cow, I really love this! The motion and shading are all superb.

 

  • beethy May 16, 2008, 10:33 am

oh wow, this is incredible D:
so clean and so dynamic at the same time... jesus, the detail is astounding
and you've got everything else down so well too, flawless!!!

 

  • Zen May 16, 2008, 11:47 am

Wahh!! I love the colors and design! icon

 

OMG, I love the lines so much, OMG. The motion and the limited palette and the detail. ALL STAR. I am especially enamoured of the costume design/execution. DUDE: BOSS.

 

:| awesomeeeeeee , love it, great style and sense of action!

 

  • seiji May 17, 2008, 7:41 am

OMG! this is really awesome!!! *salutes* XD love your style so much *v*!!! great action pose!! and great expression on his face as well!!!
haha XD food and msning are good too *v*!!!

 

  • Loika May 17, 2008, 9:43 am

;ASLDKFJ;AS AAAAH.

You've floored me into incoherency with your lines and shading. Wh-where do I go to stalk you? ;_;

oh man classical beauty = icon

The colours are lovely <3

 

and you have just stolen my heart N3L icon

 

oh wow :D this is daaaaaaaamn nice

 

So pretty! I like the painting strokes you used! Nice subtle reds on the cheeks too :D

 

Yay for Loomis, I've browsed through some of his books and his head constructions are very good and useful, and make variation very easy too handle. This is very nice, but, shouldn't her ears be slightly visible?
Nice job with the pinks, there, and such soft hair!

 

wow~ seriously *__* Your colouring is so smooth and supple... The yellow tones in the flesh is so refreshing and is a nice contrast to her lips!
I think my favourite parts is how you defined the cheek bones and the nose... <3
hehe, you make it look way way TOO easy! m(.__.)m

 

  • Ami May 16, 2008, 7:55 am

Um. If the pencil sketch was beautiful - this must be ... beautiful x 100000!!!
Wooow, the texture of the skin ... so smooth looking! Like ... MILK! I love milk. Hehe.
My favourite party has to be the lips and the skin. But the eyes and nose are really amazing, as well.
The more I look at it, the more I'm amazed by N3L's amazingly amazing amazo-skills.

 

  • OQM May 16, 2008, 9:24 am

And you did an excellent job! *_* Wow, this seriously looks airbrushed, its so smooth.

 

Totally, and completely beautiful. The lighting and the coloring are effin' perfect and wonderful. Her eyes and lips are especially striking. Damned fine-ness!

Just trying desperately to get back into the swing of oekaki-ing. Sadly there is no way I can install Jtablet. No administrative access on this laptop.

I'll hopefully get my real computer up soon. And then I can get my art back up to par.

Right back at ya, I definitely hope I can see more mutt art around here this summer :D (damnit, dot eyebrows make everything look wicked!)

 

  • beethy May 14, 2008, 11:44 am

this=lovely

 

  • Ami May 15, 2008, 9:37 am

Woow - this was done with a laptop? That's really good! Eh, you're good with any computer you use, anyway.
I really love the orange hair!!! This person reminds me of Ed from Cowboy BeBop. They're both cute!!
I like how you did the shading. The picture looks like it was done in acrylics!
I absolutely love how you did the lips and nose ... and the eyes!! So cute!!

 

  • N3L May 15, 2008, 1:02 pm

Very cute character. I love the faint outline of his eyes and nose. icon

 

aww... i'm glad to see you oekaki, been a long while! <3
hehehe i quite like the thickness of the brushtrokes, especially on the hair~ hope you get your new pc soon too!! *__*
(nice choice of hair colour by the way! <3)

 

  • OQM May 16, 2008, 9:25 am

I still absolutely adore your style. The face is so sweet and calm in contrast to the firey dynamic head of hair!

 

I love the colors and the limited use of outlining lines. Really, really nice shading (lighting?) and I love the little circular eyebrows!

 

good luck getting your computer! and it's great to see you oekaki'ing again!

That's pretty damn cool sonny jim. It's a crabtastic angle, very lovely to the peepers

 

Totally reminds me of the Mad Hatter from Batman: The Animated Series esp. cuz of the teeth. Friggin awesome. I'm enjoying these arts, Beethy. Where the heck have you been?

 

oo oo beethy YOU!! >__<!! Making your works seem so easy again! Loving the yellow teeth~ makes him appear even more sinister! hehe, the red mark down the nose is a nice touch too!
The water rake type shading is very admirable *__*!

 

  • OQM May 16, 2008, 9:29 am

This piece is incredibly creepy yet I still really like it! The areas of solid color, and those transparent splotches of red are fantastic. This looks like it would fit right into a very artistically directed action film or something of the like :)

 

I love the dynamic coloring and design! The teeth, the red, the deep shadows. Very cool. I love the solids+watercolor (or whatever it is), very cool effect!

Effing fantastic solids here! It's been a while since I've seen appealing solid line art as well and YUM, I just *love* the way that thick eyebrow curves in!
Lovely little colour scheme and "pokemon" *_*!

 

  • N3L May 14, 2008, 12:28 pm

:o
This is lovely!

 

ahaha aww... clefairies? the pokemon? o__o!!! that would have been so cool! I really adore the transparent squids *__* especially with the swirly designs. I just realised my monitor is too dark to see the details~ so I imagine the colours to be even more amazing than how i'm currently viewing it! *0*!!

 

  • OQM May 16, 2008, 9:26 am

I am in love with those jellyfish! The transparency and swirliness of their interior is beautiful!

 

Super cool! I really like them jellyfish! The coloring and simple surrealness of this is really wonderful!! <3 <3 <3

 

awesome concept, love the mood and lighting and dojvn wv

Started reading it last night @_@;; the S M U T! ehehe, but it's funny.

I absolutely love the way your color and the colors you choose!

Her eyes are beautiful as well!

 

Haha, well this is a cute piece! I like the sugary palette; it really adds to the overall subject of the piece.

I love the squid motif!

 

  • myvan May 14, 2008, 11:38 am

For a while there, you almost had me thinking "Omg what?? Soya is reading boysmut now!?". Then I blackled/black googled it and then came back to notice that lo and behold, yes, there are boobs! And squids! Wait.. what?
;_; ... I can only whisper my admiration now.. 4 different applets and it doesn't even break the consistency of your work..

 

  • OQM May 16, 2008, 9:27 am

I really admire how you focused more on areas of color and shading rather than outlining the entire work, it really looks great.

 

OMG SQUIDS! I love the coloring on her skin! And the bright, bouncy (ehehe) colors of the whole affair!

Omg! Hatter's boyfriend!!

*shot*


No, but seriously, those are some cool blendy/mysterious aura of ultimate abyss waves there!

 

Oh my, this definitely intrigued me amongst the thumbnails, and up close it's even more amazing! I've no idea what's going on but it looks like the horn dude is about to get owned XD
