Alright, decided Old wounds Unhealed will be best presented by comic way instead. Anyways the comic series named several different ways, on Deviant Art and other sites its called Admitting Love but will soon turn to A Bard's Love.

The story is very typical with fan fictions and such but I have a few twists most don't ever dare to go near. In this story the Warden's name is Cogdale (My family's maiden name back when we were English Nobility in the 1500s) He is a warrior class. Several of his choices that the comic is based around (spoilers)

-Saved the Urn
-Spared Marjolaine (major point in the story)
-Didn't command at Amaranthine
-Did do the ritual with Morrigan (explained in the story soon)
-Alistair made King
-Loghain's head chopped off.

You get the point anyways here is where the pages will be posted for you guys.

Page 3 is where the true story begins on my fan fiction but page 1 and 2 had to be created to see what had happened before and what state they were at in the story before 3.

Page 1- Admitting Adoration
Adoration

Page 2-That Settles it then
Settlement

Page 3- Vir Lath Sa'vunin
One More Day

Other pieces of DOA art-

A Bard's Charm
Charm

Legam the Mage
Legam

Etc....

New one finished!



Admitting Love

Very nice art - a bit rough in some ways, but you're far better than I was at 17 (especially at sci-fi armor). Do you plan on going to college/taking art classes? They can really help you refine your skills, which are already at a great starting point.
Also, nice to see another Leliana fan. I've replayed my male Amell (see avatar) who romances her about... Four times now? She's certainly quite charming and hard to not romance, and I say that as a heterosexual woman.

Your short comic with the confession was rather cute. I was actually thinking of doing something similar eventually, but I've got a laundry list of fan art concepts I need to tackle.

As for the fanfiction... Dunno if I can regularly edit it as it goes on, but I might be able to critique the prologue for you. Just finished a 32,000-ish word fanfiction series based around Leliana and the Warden myself, so my muse is still focused on them.

Damn it, I feel like the only one who hasn't romanced Leliana XD I should get on that... right after my current play through. >.<

I'm sure you're not the only one. There are plenty of people who don't like her, or just aren't interested. I think Leliana fans are just currently flooding this forum... Maybe to make up for all the Alistair attention?

I have to admit (hides from the Alistair fans) that Leliana is my favourite romance in the game.  She's just the sweetest ever!  I keep creating male characters to romance Morrigan, but she scares the pants of them, literally, and they run right to Leli.

Also enjoyed the comic.  Cute!

[PickledGear]

Thanks, like I said before, thanks to Leliana and Alley Katze (her adult model she's based on) I've grown quite a interest in short haired and red hair women XD. But yeah, DAO is the only game where I essentially fell in love with a character (not including master chief or cortana XD)



I might continue the comic, but I need to think up the layout for the page.

But yeah, I'd love for someone to work on my fan fic, art is my expertise but writing isn't.

Yeah, I'm planning to go to Full Sail University for a Bachelors for Game Art. I want to see my ideas played by millions around the world. The same way a director wants to see his movie seen around the world.

Ah, I wish you luck then! I just recently graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts, and I can tell you that it's not easy... But it's very rewarding.

I'm just glad to know my art skill could grow ten fold in the following years

[DalishRanger]

It can, probably even without going to school - but school does make you see things in a different way that helps you improve. At least, in my experience. I think a lot more about composition and color after taking classes, and that's made my pieces more effective, I think.

I don't know how different a Game Art path would be from a Fine Arts path (if my school offered Game Art as a field, I'd have taken it), but I'm willing to bet the same foundations are there. You'll likely have to suffer through some really boring basic courses/assignments before you get to the more interesting stuff. If I had a dime for every time I had to draw a stupid still life in ten different ways... Well, I probably wouldn't need to be looking for a job to make money.

Just remember even the boring stuff helps you get better. I still have to remind myself at times.

[PickledGear]

Probably before going to Full Sail I'll take a couple classes for anatomy and such. Certain aspects of my art are always a bit off which is anatomy or size of limbs in certain poses. That also goes to setting up the poses, like with my newest Halo concept image I've done the slashing motion the spartan is doing is very dull.



I have to redraw a more exciting pose so that it can be as exciting as the 3 previous images before.

[DalishRanger]

Anatomy is certainly one of the foundations needed, and it's something I still have issues with here and there. When it comes to poses, what I usually do is find photo references on places like fotosearch.com or use Poser Figure Artist to create my own poses/scenes when I need something very specific.

[PickledGear]

BTW, I'm testing every way to draw realistic hair, I can't really do long female hair with the way I do hair right now..... Anyone have a link to a good tutorial that would be easy for me?

[DalishRanger]

Ugh, realistic hair has always been tough for me. deviantART usually has a lot of good tutorials posted by members. Try this search and see if you find anything helpful.

[PickledGear]

Alright I decided that I'm going to continue the comic based on my story, the thing is how should page 2 end up? Leliana kissing back and then after a few seconds of staring at each other she says the line "Well... that settles it then" or a new thing like the warden saying something with her blushing and what not.

[DalishRanger]

Why not both? She could still say the line (or something similar to it) and then the Warden could tease her.

[PickledGear]

Woops, sorry for the hiatus anyways heres 2 new ones

1st. A sketch of my Grey Warden Cogdale - creepy stare!
Cogdale

2nd. Admitting Love page 2 Cogdale approves +50!
Admitting Love 2

[PickledGear]

BTW heres a question, for the comic what should the next page be?

1. Random fight against Darkspawn the warden looks at Leliana (wink)

2. Confronting Marjolaine

3. After confronting Marjolaine - followed by *whimble whimble scene*

4. After the death of the Archdemon the Warden and her set out on a new adventure?

[PickledGear]
