Ha, yes. In one of my other stories I have a human traveling with three elves, and the poor guy is always feeling so inept XD It’s part of why elves are so awesome, though ^.^
I’ll probably hold off on posting any of the story for now. I haven’t written all that much of it yet, and I still feel like I’ll want to make a lot of tweaks to what’s there. Plus I’d love to try and get it published someday if I ever finish it, though that’s a very big “if” XD Very glad to know someone is interested, though! ^-^
Oh good, glad I wasn't way off the mark on any of them ^^'
No, that makes a lot of sense. It's hard to tell different ages of different races at first if you're not used to seeing the subtle differences, but you know pretty well the ages of your own race. Plus it seems like the general consensus in literature gives elves certain things that they 'just know'. Us poor humans on the other hand are always left blundering around in the stories lol
I'm sure we would all love reading an excerpt or two about them from your story? If not that's totally fine. I know and understand that authors need to be protective of their creative rights, especially if it's something you're planning on publishing
Aww, thank you!! It was so fun reading your thoughts about everyone X3 You pretty much hit the nail on the head with all of them, haha. I was especially impressed that you picked up on that much about Silen – she and Zetheus share a lot of sentiments that you won’t find in the other two. I don’t think her appearance impacts her relationship with others much...for the elves it’s normal that they stop aging after a certain point, so they’re used to it. I think age is something they can just kind of sense about each other, rather than see, if that makes sense.
I’m glad you singled out Zetheus as a favorite – he’s supposed to be a very likeable guy, as is his son, who is one of the main characters ^^ Haha, and I wasn’t expecting all these comments about Xanther’s neck, but I’ll take it! Lol! XD Mm, yes; definitely wouldn’t want to get on his or Teya’s bad side.
Thank you again!! It’s really awesome to hear what other people think of my characters ^^ And I’m honored to have my work displayed on your computer background! :D
I was flipping through my backroom stuff and when I saw this picture I thought, hey, she really did draw those dark elves. And then I looked down at the info and saw you had drawn it partially because of my request! hah XD
Yep, basically they look amazing. I love those pose thingie you've placed them in. It definitely gets the feel of each character across. Xanther is cool by which I mean awesome and colder/less emotional. And Yes his neck is surprisingly attractive o_O Strange but nice lol
Teya is so elegant. I love her red accents! I'd hate to get in the way of this power couple!
I think Zetheus would probably be my favorite character. I just like the more laid-back, relaxed type of guy. At least he retains a sense of humor while killing you off right?
Does Zetheus take after Silen the most? She also seems distant but in a different way than Xanther and Teya. She seems the type that would appear in a sufficiently cool 'I'm a powerful sorceress so give me the reverence due to me' sort of way. It's kinda fun that she's as young-looking as the others. Does it seem to change/impact their relationships in any way?
Okay probably reading WAY too much into the picture, but those are the types impressions your drawing evoked. This is definitely another one of your pieces that I will proudly display on my computer background d Keep up the awesome work!
Aw, thank you! I’m always so happy when people like my characters ^^ Haha, and I’m glad that Xanther is attractive XD
I haven’t written very much of it, around 6 chapters I think (plus a pile of scribbled notes). I wish I was better at sticking with it...as it is I’m jumping between 3 stories, and I only write when the mood strikes me, which isn’t nearly as often as I’d like :/ I hope I finish at least one of them someday! But it’s fun regardless ^^
I love finding out about your characters, they are all so interesting (and beautiful!) ^^ I really like their eyes. Also, Xanther's neck is really well done. I suppose that is an odd part of your art to point out XD but I think you did a lovely job, he is rather attractive >///<
How much of your story have you written? I've been thinking of writing mine out, but all I have so far are scribbled notes. I don't really have a plot, just the beginnings... Haha. Poor Vaek.
whoa, this is cool ^^
It's so interesting to see your dark elves ^^
their eyes are so hynoptic, dark and piercing :)
nice job!!!
this shows that everyone truly has a dark side, including our wonderful creatures, the elves :)
See you around XD
