More from ThrashMetallix
Take me deep enough where I can see the bottom of your heart
Deep enough that I can feel the breath of the sea
Deep enough to know that we will never be apart
And when we get there, take me deeper still...
Vincent Kaayan and his lover, Aestus Tsunamaki, sharing an intimate moment together beneath the waves. He's just kinda nuzzling her In affection. There's no goal for them right there, nothing really on their mind, they're not thinking of doing anything, sometimes a moment just comes along where nothing in the world matters to either of them, except each other. And this is one of those moments.
Well...after starting on this three years ago or so, going inactive, and returning and spending roughly two to three weeks on it...I think this is finally ready to be seen by the world. I won't lie, I'm nervous about this one, because I want this to be among my better works, and I want it to be viewed as such. And I want the reactions of people to look at it to be...like...wow!
I spent a LOT of time on this piece, and after some fallout with a Deviantart community which shall remain nameless, I was beginning to have a lot of doubts on my overall skill and whatnot. I like to think this as a big improvement to my latest pieces, and I hope to only keep improving. I hope to maybe even come back to this piece now and then and touch it up a bit.
I however do plan in the very near future to experiment with an artistic nudity version of this. It was originally meant to be artistic nude before the idea kinda got...shot down? But I plan to make that soon, because truthfully, it's just something I'd like to attempt at least once. Nothing dirty, just...intimate. These are two characters I hold rather close to my heart, and I'd rather not draw them doing...the naughty....but that's for another day I guess.
I really hope this is well liked and all. This is one that's taken a LOT out of me recently. Stiff necks and whatnot. But yeah...hope you like this. And if you wanna know more about these two, read their story over on Deviantart.

Coming from one of my favorite artists here (if I haven't nailed that point home enough yet) that means a lot. :) And I certainly look forward to hearing what you would have to say about it. I'm most curious and eager. Thanks again, and take your time. It ain't going anywhere. :)
I'm finally back!! LOL Long day.
Anyway! I really love what you did with this piece. The play of light in the water is just excellently done, not just in the light coming in through the water, but also in the fine light lines on their skin. It's really lovely and adds a lot of depth to the piece. You did a lovely job with the play of light and shadow, too. I know it might seem like a strangely specific detail but I like the highlight on the back of Vince's arm.
I did want to ask, are you interested in constructive criticism as well? I don't want to offer advice where it's not wanted. Whatever your answer, this is a lovely piece and you've done some great work here! Can't wait to see the next one, and hope we don't have to wait 3 years for it! ;)

The taper of a tail-- basically it should be thickest at the base of the spine and thinnest at the tip, and it should steadily narrow from base to tip. Looking at the picture, Vince's tail looks narrower where it wraps around his own ankle than it does further toward the tip, where it is alongside Aestus' tail. Which means it would have had to widen instead of continuing to get narrower. But not a huge deal, just something I tend to notice (not the least because prior to coming to FA, I used to draw nagas, and tapering tales were the bane of my existence, lol).
I blame anatomy issues. My own bane. (Shakes fist in the air)
Anyway completely different note, I may just commission you in the near future for your own take in these two. I have no idea when I will, or what they might do, but hey, I saw you enjoyed drawing Mers? And I'm most curious to see how you'd portray Aestus. Something to maybe look forward to. ^^

I'm honored you'd want to see my take on them! At this time I'm actually closed to future commissions; I need a bit of a break to get my own muse back in gear. I'm doing YCHs but that's about it for the foreseeable future. But you can keep an eye on my page if you like as I imagine I may open up the rare slot now and then :D
