Fan art of Naija from the game Aquaria (www.bit-blot.com/aquaria/).

I only spend a couple of days on it, so the color ramps/buffer shades could have been better planned. Not the most interesting pose, and I realized afterwards that I also got her colors wrong.

Nicely painted! Love the 'strokes' and colors.

great work as usual Arachne. My only complaint is the lack of a little bit of depth on the background, since the character is well blended with the surrounding and has got a nice soft feeling


Lackey (Level 3 Chief) at 6/7/2009 9:59:08 AM

I love this, great character.  The hand gesture is a nice touch.


Squirrelsquid (Level 4 Shichikyu) at 6/6/2009 4:53:14 PM

yay for Aquaria! :3

great job, as always.

Which talk? Something like Faith from Mirror Edge received some time ago?

Posted 5 days ago?! How did I miss this?
Excellent piece, I really like the colors. Her left thigh needs a bit of smoothing out, I think. Other than that, I think this is pretty good. I love the jellyfish.

lol @ the comment under me


slym (Level 5 Lieutenant) at 6/6/2009 6:11:12 AM

Its nice but her skind color is really gross. Unless you were trying to make it gross, then good job.


blueleds (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/6/2009 2:35:49 AM

She's very sexy... you did the breasts perfectly.  The only thing odd to me is the belly-button looks garbled... almost as though it's a scar or a gash.  Oh, and all the details around her are excellent as well.

I really enjoy this image. Thanks for posting.


Lollige (Level 11 Psychopath) at 6/3/2009 5:45:06 AM

Great drawing! I really should buy this game some time, but in the meanwhile I can just enjoy watching this :)


Arachne (Level 4 Murderer) at 6/2/2009 2:06:41 PM

Thanks, guys.

Stickman - I wanted some color variation in the background, but without drawing too much attention from the foreground, so it's meant to be subtle. It's possible that it would have been more interesting if it had been less scattered.

Claredeth - Yeah, I posted it in the renditions thread.

7even - Maybe it was all the talk about fan service on tigsource that did it.


7even (Level 8 Guerrilla) at 6/1/2009 5:44:34 PM

Ah Aquaria, so many nice moments playing you...  Incredible work there, her eyes great, they show a lot fo expression with so little... Also, the bubbles are amazing, gotta love the effects you put there.

But... Isn't she too "busty" for Naija? XD


Mathias (Level 2 Kukyu) at 6/1/2009 5:26:58 PM

Very nice! I enjoyed Aquaria. It deserves some good fan art.

You're so indy.


susuwataris (Level 6 Yonkyu) at 6/1/2009 5:14:08 PM

 amazing, its grogeous


RollerKingdom (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/1/2009 4:54:00 PM

That's really good, Nice job! Wish i had your skills!


Shawn (Level 8 Cannibal) at 6/1/2009 3:39:54 PM

I really love this. Never stop spriting. ; 3;


dpixel (Level 6 Major) at 6/1/2009 3:27:46 PM

Love the outfit.  I don't know what the original character looks like but with a bit longer hair, she'd be hot.


Claredeth (Level 3 Hatchikyu) at 6/1/2009 3:26:09 PM

 hey did you post this on tigsource yet, i didnt check


Stickman (Level 5 Detective) at 6/1/2009 3:07:27 PM

Ahhhh...I see. (I haven't seen the original character). One thing that I did notice is the use of red. I think because it's used so sparringly it feels just a little bit of an afterthought as it's not used anywhere else. Was this intentional? (sorry for all the questions:))


Arachne (Level 4 Murderer) at 6/1/2009 3:02:17 PM

Thanks.

Stickman - Yeah, it's the selection. She's not quite that green, her hair color is lighter, and there's more red on her outfit. I looked at some of the Naija artwork for the initial sketch, but didn't use it after that, so it's not as accurate as it could have been.


smk (Level 5 Sniper) at 6/1/2009 2:59:07 PM

Only thing that bothers me is that the nose ain't too feminine... Dunno if the original character was that way though...?


Stickman (Level 5 Detective) at 6/1/2009 2:44:26 PM

I've never heard of the game, but this artwork is very nice. When you say  "got her colours wrong" is it the selection, or how you've used them?

(...colour choice on her looks good to me by the way :))

Aquaria is the best game ever, this is a pretty picture.
