Riviera traces, Traced with pencil Options

[DavidSchinkel]

I've made traces that are based off of those telephone card artworks that are shown in the Dept. Heaven World Guidance book. I've traced them for fun. Credit goes to Sunaho Tobe for the artwork. What do you think?

What do you think of their swimsuits?

I'm really glad you're back, but your threads are confusing me a little. :( Some of these topics seem to be the same, or very close to the same, with the same artworks. What I've seen looks good, though. Do you want to have just one topic for all your art? That might be a better way to do this.

Also, I think you're aware but just in case you aren't, this forum is not very active anymore since it's been a long time since Sting has released anything for the DHE series. That's why your posts aren't getting replies and stuff. Please don't make new topics for your art, unless you're making one topic for allll your art.

Alright. It's really a very long time since STiNG is talking about things Riviera-related... I wish Riviera gets more love. :(

I rather like your traces! But yes, try to contain stuff like this in a single topic from now on.

To be honest though....Sting hasn;t release any DHE stuff for like 2 years already...
Their latest game is just an adoption to another Japan MMO....
Hard to tell if Sting is suffering any finacial problem or they are just running our of idea.

Those traces are nice.I love the background that you put to all the picture.

I really like your pencilwork. The shading is really nice and you used it to neat effect whenever water was involved. Ladie's face didn't turn out quite as well as everything else, though. She's blushing in the original art, right? I think to get that to work right you'd have to trace very lightly over the blushing spots to use as a guide (to later erase), and then use that fabulous pencilwork of yours to make her look like she's blushing without the help of pink/red colors. Or you could just use those lines that are used in anime-style art to indicate blushing.

And before you ask "What do you think of their swimsuits?" I must ask you if they are the original swimsuit patterns! Cierra's doesn't look like what I remember, but I feel like Serene's does and I don't remember what Ladie's was like. Maybe I should stop being lazy and check since I have the book.

Well, if they ARE your swimsuit pattern designs, I like the simplicity of Serene's and I like Ladie's, too, although it makes me think of fall... I really do hope Ladie is not swimming in the fall. Although, maybe I should not be giving her that advice since I have actually swam in a lake in the fall, and probably more than once.

Those swimsuits come from my head. I gave Serene a sports bikini because it fits her.
