Dark Magician Girl w Puzzle
Dark Magician Girl w Puzzle by @GuardianKnight5 (Nathaniel Christopher)

I apologize for the lack of a creative title, btu I simple couldn't find one for this piece. I work on this piece lat elast night while sitting down with some extended edition of LOTR-ROTK. Ironically while I was working on this DMG piece, the piece that I requested from Meeki, of my girlfriend's Gaia Avatar dressed up as the DMG, would be sitting in my PM box. I went through almost entire piece before I moved onto this one, and in the end I liked how this one came out. Using what I learned from line art editting for Faekats on Gaia, I was able to make this piece look better than I expected. This piece was sketched out using a pose that I found in my X1999-Zero artbook, I then took to making the liekness of the Dark Magician Girl in that pose, and decided that it would be perfect if she would hold the Millenium Puzzle in front of her, very much the same way Kotori was holding the Earth in front of her in the pose reference. After the image was sketched, I fought with myself to determine whether I was pleased with it or not. After a few moments I began inking it with a finepoint sharpie. After the inkign was allowed to dry I took to erasing the original sketch lines. Today I scanned it intot he computer, and cleaned it up in photoshop, the took to the coloring. In the end I was very pleased with this piece.

The coloring is amazing. It flows nicely together with a beautiful contrast between the highlights and shadows. Her body seems a little thin in relation to both her head and shoulders, other wise this is a very lovely piece.

She is just too cute, Nate! You can tell how much you like her from the hard work you put into these images. I think you have learned a lot from the faekat coloring-- the shading and highlights are really a lot better than your previous works. I love her expression, she's just... too adorable!

It's very cute, and you did a pretty goo djob on the coloring. :D

However, I think the lines are a wee bit shakey and she's not really in proportion, her waist is too small compared to her shoulders.

Otherwise, I think you did a very good job and really caught the Dark Magician Girl!
