Talking with Morlanwen about dark music reminded me of this gorgeousest of pictures I stumbled upon in Facebook. This is the original source.

Oooh that dress... I want to see your take on it! TBH I can even imagine her with Leliana's face...

 

Or Morrigan's

[Vorathrad]

Leliana and Morrigan are two of my least favourite characters... but Flemeth's face, that one I like a lot. Thanks for the idea, Ceru!

Oh FLEMEEETH!!! Yay! Do it Vor, do it!

Alright this is Cullen fanart but it's been a while since I saw some story told powerfully without any words. And I LOVE the colour scripting of this one. Alright, this is quite impactful for me so guess that I'll share it here?

Wish that one day I can draw stories like this. Well, time for more practice!

[Vorathrad]

That's amazing, very powerful storytelling and use of colours.

[Cerulione]

That colour scripting... Whew. And how the story is told... It's weird to say this but tbh I feel this is much more impactful to me personally than a static painting...

Sometimes people do share interesting things on Facebook   There I discovered this amazing artist, Samantha French, and her incredible skill to paint underwater images:

Here is her amazing gallery online. These past few days have been hot as hell here in the Canary Islands, and I feel fresher just by looking at her paintings!

Wow that's an interesting use of colour!

To better get the feel of charcoal (and specifically of the ones I own) I intend to copy this beautiful B&W picture:

I also highly recommend Dark Beauty Magazine website; they have gorgeous images, on their Facebook page they only post photos, but there are also some illustrations on their web.

Facebook discovered this amazing artist for me, Kris Lewis, he's not very active on social networks but you cand find his online gallery here. It's amazing how his oil paintings have a digital finishing feel. Very inspirational.

Wow! It looks so clean and realistic!

For our inking reference, I recommend Cassandra Calin's comics; they are gorgeous as well as very funny, you can see them on her tumblr here 

 

She also has a YouTube channel; there are only four videos, but one of them is a nice simple tutorial to draw curly hair, and there are a couple speed drawings that are interesting for inking reference. She also lists the markers she uses, I think that's useful
