Ooh! I didn't know you were

Ooh! I didn't know you were drawing him, you sneak! Really like the energy in his pose, and his silhouette actually. That faaaace. Really like Pandora there too, ok I like all of them. XD

I've seen the rest, but I always really like scrolling through your work. Leviathann still makes me drool, such awesome shading. Mato is still a creeper. I really like how you drew Aurora btw, I don't think I mentioned that to you yet. Reaally love her spots especially, and her face is soo cute. ♥
And Verve of course! I'm still all over that one ♥.

I love the texture in your

I love the texture in your art, the colors, and also your shading brings it to life. Especially the texture, though, anatomy is spot on, too. <3 /basicallywhatkimisaid

I think I already expressed

I think I already expressed my love for the box deer, as well as for Aurora and the few pieces I saw on LS - but it's no surprise to me the others turned out just as well. Your style overall is amazing; you color in a very.. realistic way, unlike anything I've seen before! (:

Apeldille's picture

Thank you c:
Do you mind if I use it as an icon here?
Apeldille's picture

kasiawar: hm, somewhere

kasiawar: hm, somewhere around 200-300 SEK I think, and I'm not sure about the icon yet, about 50-100 I think, that one is quite flexible.

MunkeL: not at all, feel free! ^^

How you painted Vivian really

How you painted Vivian really blew me away.

I was on my iPod, in bed, had just woken from a nap when I saw your post.
I got on my laptop just to really say how much I love it. I had to close my mouth.
Just the way you did it... It's so rich and so well blended.
Such a treat for my eyes. Gorgeous.

Oh my... These are all so

Oh my...
These are all so wonderful.

I wish I'd been around more lately, else I'd have seen this sooner..
That image you did of Pan absolutely made my day ♥
I was wondering whether you would shrink it to 50x50 (if it works) and allow me to use it as my dA icon? Then I'd have it with me all the time ♥

It's just gorgeous.
Thank you.

Ugh I need to take art lessons from you haha.

Vivian and Djinn's coloring

Vivian and Djinn's coloring totally blew me away.
I can't even describe how gorgeous your work is, Apeldille.

Sicily: You're welcome! He was fun to draw.

Uzulii: Ah thank you! That one is one of my own favourites, heehe.

Orinoco: I want a sneer to ride on XD

Ravynn: Ah, thank you! Gradients can be a pain to do but this one was fun. Her awesome design helps, hehe.

Pandoras: Thank you! Here is a tiny panda-icon. I'm glad you like it! :]

Kittyo8: :] Thanks!

wowowow to all the things currently in here. Leto's painting is stunning, and geez all those lines on Eph... how long did that take you?
Apeldille's picture

Hehe, thank you all! My

Hehe, thank you all! My tendency to let comments sit unanswered forever strikes again, ack.

Dag; Uuhm, I dunno, a few hours or so I think. It was pretty dumb, not the slightest good for my sore thumb 8<

RikkaChan's picture

This is something new for me.

This is something new for me. It's always interesting to see how one's skull is shaped.
Narina's picture

Now I love the mental image

Now I love the mental image of snarling Leto. The concepts for him are amazing and I've always been very fond of the clear brush strokes in your art.
Iaurdagnire's picture

I love your new background

I love your new background style so muuuuuch! And here I was thinking that you couldn't get any more painty-er. I was wrong.
... I want to jump in those puddles.
Apeldille's picture

Sight: Thanks! Hehe, yep. Big

Sight: Thanks! Hehe, yep. Big teeth ftw.

Sable: Woo, thank you!

Rikka: For me too, actually. I've thought about it but only tried it just now. It was quite hard, had to try and combine different sorts of skulls and then change and tweak it so it would fit. But it was fun and very good for getting an idea about how the face is shaped by the bone underneath.

Narina: Heehe, I've had that mental image for a while, still haven't drawn it. Thank you very much, glad to hear it c:

Dag: Can't have too much painterly feel Cool also yes puddlejumping! SOON we can do that, spring is coming at last fff


RikkaChan's picture

Yes, I can understand how it

Yes, I can understand how it would be hard. o_o So many little details needed; I don't think I'd have the patience for it. XD Your skull came out very realistic though!
RikkaChan's picture

Wow.. how is it I only just

Wow.. how is it I only just noticed Leto had fangs? Who did he inherit those from? O:

Love that smile, by the way. XD Kinda creepy though! ♥
Apeldille's picture

Hehe, he's had those since he

Hehe, he's had those since he got teeth! They were smaller when he was little, though. He inherited them from Gehirn, he has somewhat fang-y teeth, being an omnivore and all. I might have made them a tad bigger though <_< A bit like a chimpanzee's or a baboon's, I imagine.

Thank you! :]

oh man O_O you're stuff is a

oh man O_O you're stuff is a constant inspiration for me. I still wish I understood your technique for fur and such. I'd love to be able to paint like this someday...tried on my recent aria image but it turned out nice but I just wish I had the umph and awesomeness your stuff has. Great work always a pleasure when your new stuff shows up :3
