Drawn july 2002

Milo (right) is a roguish halfling and companion of the necromancer Warren Blackthorn, also a halfling. The two are members of an adventuring band whose deeds include fighting living gravestones, falling victim to man-eating cactusses and taking out the trash for a blue dragon. Originally these were two different pictures in my gallery that I've now put together (which explains the comments).

*first comment boogie*

For a beginning attempt at a dynamic pose, I think you're doing just fine. Good work on the shading and the posing. Turning the knife around in his hand would give him more umph (force) on the backstab, though. *cough*

Excellent pic. Love the expression and pose. I think I also had a halfling rogue named Milo, but that was in IWD. Decent names are hard to come by.

I really like this, something about the pose and expression. It seems very "human" for lack of a better word. More real, and less exagerrated than a lot of fantasy work you find. I like it, it has some sort of charm for me.

:-) Lieuwe Boer replies: "Nice that you noticed that, because that's exactly what I'm trying to do in my gallery. To create as realistic as possible fantasy figures. I'm glad you appreciate that and that you like this one. Thanks!"

Hey, this guy's fearsome! Great posture, and nice detail with the outfit. The dagger and arms are superb.

Back! And I just have to say, I love this one! You really should do more action-type poses. (oh, about being "a cute vampire," you're the first one I've used that phrase for...)

:-) Lieuwe Boer replies: "Thanks! Action will be the main focus in my drawings to come, make sure you check out my FanQuarter gallery when it's opened.The vampire phrase was never used before? Ah, that clears things up. I had already started wondering about what kind of people you hung out with..."

wonderful texture here! But what I enjoy the most is the powerful pose, including that wonderful, elegant righthand... it contrasts with the masculinityin a wonderful manner! You might have been overdoing the folds on the pants there... I see no reason for them to fold the way they do. A simple rule for folds- they spring out from were they are held/ tightened/put pressure on... difficult to explain. Just ask, and I might make you an explanatory sketch.

:-) Lieuwe Boer replies: "Yes, you are right again, and I understand what you say about folding. The folds on Milo's pants definitely behave in an illogical way here. It's amazing how fast you learn actually, it's been a few months and I don't even like this drawing anymore because the faults are too disturbing. I'm pretty amazed that people think this is one of my better drawings, but still I'm very grateful."
