This is one of my characters from a MUD game called Tirn Aill (tirnaill.org[port4000]). He is Hades, the Elven Necromancer. He is wearing equipment from The Demon Welp Caves, a low-level zone full of demons and ghosts. i'm going to try to remember to draw a picture of him without a helmet so you can see his ears. I drew this with pencil and, I had found out earlier that day that if i drew with a certain pencil and put my picture in the microwave, it would burn the places where I drew with that pencil and not the rest of the paper. That's how I did the edges and the name. Oh, and don't ask how I found out that thing about the microwave. I dont remember.

OOh, very good. Hey, I can't draw guys and you can't draw girls, pretty cool. ^_^ You seem like a cool person, keep practicing that's all I can say! I think this picture is great!

Interesting drawing and great technique with the burning thing.

OK, the microwave thing is kinda coming back to me. My little sister and I were making treasure maps for no reason whatsoever. I wondered what happens to paper when it's put in the microwave. So I drew a treasure map and decided to find out. I was watching it, and little sparks started to fly from the pencil marks. It started to burn, so I pulled it out and blew out the fire. It made a really cool effect. My little sister thought it was really cool, so she tried it with hers. Nothing happened. We assumed that it was the pencil I was using. We did some experiments by making more maps to find out. Only the ones drawn with that same pencil burned. Then, I decided to draw Hades. I drew a squiggly line around the edge and his name with one pencil, then I drew Hades himself with another pencil. Then I warmed it in the microwave. This is why Hades didn't burn, but the other stuff did.

This is a cool pic with cool effects but, to me it looks a bit rushed, how long did it take you to make this picture? lol for me I can spend hours on a picture and have it turn out as a simple doodle that was never meant to be...

Yay, cool! That's a diggly style, I don't know why, there's just something appealing about it. Especially with the sword, I couldn't draw a sword if my ruddy life depended on it. ^_^ *dances around*

Wut type of pencil did u use..?

:-) David 'Tainor' Farrey replies: "Hmm... I dont really remember. It was pink and had an advertisement on it-it was the only one I could find on the treasure map day. Now I'm guessing it wasn't a plain old #2 pencil. I should experiment with drawing pencils and microwaves sometime to find out."

LOL the part about the microwave is great!!! LOL I love it! The burnt edges of the paper give it a great touch =) Side note- this guy really has some hair doesn't he!) Anyway, I think this is drawn really well and he's a fascinating character...maybe you want to take your time coloring it though? I think it would look fantastic! But honestly, I LOVE the microwave thing!! LOL
