Hello, all, While my fantasy novel is on the way to being published, I would like to show you some art that I did of two of the characters. These are the teenage and young adult stages of the main character and the young adult stage of his female friend. I did these quite some time ago and I am a little unsure about my art abilities. I don't think that my drawing skill is that bad, it's just that nowadays, people expect something done on Photoshop and I'm not very good at that software. Maybe if somebody out there could... I don't know... touch up my art a bit? Just an idea.

Funny that this got posted; I recently got a second draft of concept art for the seven main characters of my first book for it's trailer! This isn't quite done yet, and some details on the guy with the tail are being changed (no tusks, etc.) but this is it so far~ In order: Alexander, Aurelia, Fantasia, Weylyn. Nilos, Orion, Elrena.

If it helps this is part of a deal worth almost $2000.

As an artist myself, I understand the need for physical images. i drew my own, but wanted a digital rendition. As an "old school" illustrator, I needed to hire a digital artist. It's never cheap, but you get what you pay for. look around. You might find someone out there who will help you with your art in exchange for your skills.

I only wish I could draw any of my characters! If I tried I don't think it would look very good, probably no better than my one-year-old son could do.

It takes practice as well. I have drawn some of the Starshot Chronicles characters. Check them I out at my site brienoraighne.com

The only thing I noticed, singingtadpoles, is that your perspective is off on those characters. Their arms seem really short for their bodies.
