"Ca´rer" by Lauren ´Selie´ Liebowitz

OMG! No one's commented yet?? *slaps forehead* *ow*. Anyways, once again I LOVE this piccy! I can't wait to see more!

This is really incredible! except i'd say he looks at least 13 or 14. he is gorgeous though!

Lauren 'Selie' Liebowitz replies: "Hmmm, you've got a point. I'll try to make him look more his age in later pictures ... is it the facial structure that makes him look too old? Is the jawline too long?"

Must... Kidnap... 11 year old... boy.... MWAHAHAHHAH!!! soooo kawaii! awesome lineart coupled with pretty damn good coloring equals a beautiful pic, dude! WOOOT!

O,O I want his ears. Aaaah! I mean, I want ears LIKE that, not HIS... he probably needs them. And on third thought, I don't REALLY want ears like that, as it would earn me a few funny looks... okay... but I REALLY like the ears!

Lauren 'Selie' Liebowitz replies: "I should upload a picture of the plushie I made of this little guy, with his ears made of two different fabrics. I think he's a cute character. I'm working on another CG of him that I'll put up later ... I'm glad you like the ears! I like them too. And he wears a hat to cover them sometimes, so he doesn't get those funny looks..."

mmm...pretty..no offence ,but is he dozing? Spectacular ears though.I would probably hear millions of miles from here if I could have those...EARS!! Great!

Lauren 'Selie' Liebowitz replies: "He might be sleeping, or he might just be sad. It's a design sketch so I didin't think too much about it."

Yay for original creature designs! One can only look at so many "elves" before they begin to lose all meaning. His ears are the best! Now I really wanna see the plushie.^_^
I do think he looks a little older than eleven... I think it's that neck area, and the bones above the chest--I forget what they're called, but maybe they're too prominent? I dunno. Anyway, I'd like to know more about this dude!

Lauren 'Selie' Liebowitz replies: "I like collarbones, so I draw them pretty prominantly most of the time. This is probably incorrect for little boys, and also probably part of why he looks older - thanks for pointing that out ^_^Maybe I'll upload some photos of the plushie... I wonder if that would get through the mods."

Hmmm, I think he'd look a little younger if you made his nose and maybe even those wonderful ears smaller. I learned a nifty fact about noses and ears, that they're the only part of your body that doesn't stop growing as you age. So kids have these little itty bitty noses and ears even if they're going to have large or prominent ones later on.

I like the skin tone...very unusual but the difference is subtle. Gah, I love your color work.

Lauren 'Selie' Liebowitz replies: "The nose/ear thing is a really good point. I didn't know that. Thanks! I'll have to keep it in mind for future pictures.Sorry I haven't written you back about the art trade - like you, school kind of took over and I didn't have as much free time as I'd like (started a new job too) ... maybe we can pick that back up over winter break a little?"

you do do commissions yeah cos if so i would really like you to draw me someone. I would like it to be an elven maiden of about 14-15 she is my charicter and has one green and one blue eye her hair is almost black, about elbow lenght. the left side of her hair is french plaited, sort of along the head, the rest of the hair is left loose and is mostly straight but forms little ringlets towards the bottom. Her skin is fairly pale but she has thick dark eyelashes. she isn't to tall about 5'2 and is very slender. she wears a flowing white dress with blue ribbons tied about her waist the ribbons have glass beads intwined in them and the dress is about six inches from the floor.The dress is body hugging above the riddons but loose below them and the sleeves are long and flowing she uses the ribbons as a sort of belt and from them hangs a selection of silk pouches that hold various herbs salts stones and oils. she also has one double sided rapier, she has tied more blue ribbon around the handle to make it her own. she wears nothing on her feet. i would really like it if you could have her sat with legs crossed surrounded by her incence and stones with her rapier on the floor and (it has no scabbard) holding a blue stone in one hand and a white one in the other.

Lauren 'Selie' Liebowitz replies: "Unfortunately, I'm really pressed for time these days so I don't do free requests any more - I take paid commissions, so if you're interested feel free to email me. But I am flattered that you are interested enough in my art!"
