Artist's Comments

"Give your tongue a rest," The Horologist's clockmate, The Historian, advised from above. That was where he sat on weekends, on a beam, balanced over a very large book.

-Quote from Pie-IX [link]

FULLVIEW cause you're sexy like that

So usually I don't do fanart of characters from peeps on DA.
Thus I was ignoring the journal of =MincedNiku for weeks, when finally I decided to read it...and got hooked.

I chose to draw the Historian, because he is just smecksy sitting on his wooden beam, with his partly white/grey hair, reading this oversized book.
I mean... who can resist young men with grey/white hair ;p

The contest rules stated you should do something in character. Well I doubt he would look up from his book, nor write characters on his fingers, or make this ubercool pose towards the viewer..... But hey... it's fanart >.> He was mine for the moment I drew him >.>

I think I might tweak the clock later.
I used a stock now from some marketplaza thingy (insert credits here).

Note how I did a BG :o and some special lighting!



Character is (c) =MincedNiku and ~ladyjaida

Phwoar! *__* Man, you drew him so hot! I love the layout; there's so much depth to the image. The book looks awesome and I love the doodles on his fingers. Thanks so much for entering! To answer the question in your email: yes, you can send the updated image if you make any changes. If you do decide to tweak the clock, I'd just like to point out that the clock reflection should be backwards, ie: not normal, because they're weird like that. But that's only if you care about silly details and of course has no effect on your standing in the contest. This truly is a beautiful image and I'm so glad Pie-IX interested you enough to want to draw The Historian. ^^

Man, I totally forgot about that in the end, even tho I was aware that the clock should be flipped :o But then it was 3am already hehe
I am very glad that you like it. I would have loved to draw the Horologist and Watchdog too, because they are also extremely interesting characters. All characters are wonderfull :) Kudos!
