A bound angel.

This is not my usual style... but every now and again I force myself to draw something new or different.  It keeps you from getting boxed in to one style and challenges you as an artist so you don't get bored.

I added only the slightest of manual tones for shadow and to enhance the leather

He's HOT!! Great job on the leather, that is something I cannot do! I like how he's gripping the wing, it's a nice touch! Bravo!

:-) Devon Jopling replies: "thanks. My leather really doesn't get that punch until I add tones. The best advice I can offer is reference! Comic books are great for that. Leather (like metal) often has a huge contrast in light and dark when it is lit. So remember; heavy black and stark whites in contrast."

Looks a tad angel sanctuary ^ ^

:-) Devon Jopling replies: "Yup, I was going for an Angel Sanctuary manga art look. It's fun to play around with other styles sometimes."

That picture is exactly like that guy from Angel Sanctuary. There is a picture that is exactly like yours. But I like it. It's good.

Hi Devon again. Whooow what a great picture. Pose is great and playing with that leather. Strokes with a pen, waaah perfectly made. Feathers looks nice too. You are really skilled in this line art. How about trying to colour your picture? 1 I have drawn (correct?) with pencil and pen only , too. But now i try use colours, too. I dunno if it is with success.
