Fan-Art for Lolly, Sylvana Comments: 14 Views: 19944 Enchanted
(by Tobias , Aug 30, 2004
Imagine yourself in an unknown land, back then in time, where dragons were flying in the air, crystal grew in the grass, fairies travelling the country using their magic, and salamanders and other lizards being able to change into precious looking emeralds.
This would be the time, when Toby, Sylvana and Lolly didn't even know each other, in fact, Sylvana and Toby merely met, scouring and exploring the forest (discovering two fairies on the way ^-^), whilst Lolly (the teal-coloured fairy-kitty on the right), unbeknown to them, would scamper, well hidden, from scrub to scrub, trying to figure out who the two strangers, exploring 'her' forest, were (and of course, as a fairy she would be really shy, careful not to be discovered, but at the same time curious to find out what's happening and why they were there).
No idea whether she would actually show up and greet them (and probably wouldn't take a closer look before dusk, even) - but who wouldn't want a fairy kitty on their side in an enchanted forest?
The size is pretty large, I know, I scaled it down to a little less than half the size and figured sizing it down more would lose a lot more details - so apologizes if you had to scroll (which is likely ^^). The eye-styles of Lolly and Sylvana don't quite match, I'm aware of that, but that's mainly because I cannot imagine Sylvana with huge eyes, and likewise I can't imagine Lolly with small ones ^^; Oh - and Lolly has no collar here, she's a free fairy-kitty XP - but she does have a little diamond around her neck, on a string.

Wow. Wow, Wow... ^-^
An AWESOME pic! I love how you can see what the snake ate... XD And Tobias looks adorable in the piccie.. The coloring and shading is awesome... and I just love the whole pic... ^.^ *saves*
Hi Nicole,
I'm sorry for not getting back to you earlier, I had a tough time recently since I am about to go on vacation and had plenty of stuff to finish (so I figured I would at least tell you that before I leave).
Glad you like the drawing and thanks for your comment ^-^
Wow, this is amazing! I'm serious, your art improves so much with each picture...on each one I think, "This has to be the best anyone can ever do!" But you always manage to prove me wrong on the next submission. X3 This is definetely your most detailed piece yet(and I'm viewing with Firefox, so I see everything). They're all so cute and really add a lot to the picture(the apple in the snake, the fairies, the crystals and diamonds, the hidden wand, etc). The lizard and mole are adorable too, and the purple mushrooms are beautiful. They just really caught my attention, for some reason. ^^ You did an awesome job on the characters and caprtured their expressions perfectly(Tobias and Sylvana looking happy and adventurous, and Lolly looking confused and even curious about the newcomers). Sylvana reminds me a little bit of Lenore here, because the floppy ear and red eye. The teeth make her look somewhat fierce, but also more wolf-like, so I'd say it's a good addition.
As for critiques; I can barely find any ^^; Aside from Sylvana having no earrings(unless that was intentional, or did you forget them? Then again, maybe she didn't get them yet). There are a few spots on Toby's hair where it seems the color passes beyond the outline, but it's hardly noticeable. And the ladybug must be a bit large since they're usually so tiny, but since this is a magical forest, anything goes. ;3 So once again, you did an outstanding job and I know they'll love it...I sure do ^-^
The characters came out beauitfully, very happy and cute looking. The snake with the apple in it was a wonderful idea, it's much nicer seeing a fruit rather then some of the other things snakes end up eating, and that sort of makes it a little cute and silly. ^^ The gopher (I think it's a gohper at least, it could be a ferret or something else I suppose ^^;) looks adorable as well, even if you can only see his head the eyes really stand out... and that was another thing about the picture, how the non-anthromorphic characters had the darky beady eyes, pretty unique. ^^ The lizard seems a lot larger than normal lizards do, but I'm sure within forrests and all there are plenty of ones that big that still have the simplicity of the smaller types of lizards in urban areas though. :3
You three look awesome though, and the fur style for each character seems quite varied. There's Tobias who's fur is less detailed aside from the outlining and fur poking out. It looks nice but in areas such as the head where there's not much texture the color transitions don't look as smooth... but it's still just awesome. ^^ Then there's Lolly who's kind of inbetween, from what shows of her, there seems to be more detail and furryness in her than in Tobias, but not as much detail as Sylvana has. It also looks quite spiffy. And then the most detailed and furry, Sylvana. All that fur had to have taken a lot of time, but it turned out wonderful. And if they were all without furry detail like her, or completely furry like Sylvana, it wouldn't have looked as varied and interesting, so it's great that you chose to use the amount of detail that you did. You're an awesome artist Tobers, and your art's always getting better. ^^
THAT PICTURE IS SO COOL I WISH I COULD DO A PICTURE ON THE NET LIKE THAT IT'S SOOOOO CUTE
You know, actually I'm pretty sure you could :3 All it takes is a little time, and that's it ^-^
Glad you like it, in any case ^-^
I hadn't realized you had a private site as well. I found it today. I will note you I had a question.
Hehe, I've had it for longer than I'm on devArt, actually ^-^
Oh, alrighty - sure, feel free to note me ^-^
One of the best drawings on this site
WOW!
This picture is amazing.
Im speechless!
Amazing...what program did you use...the texture looks, almost fluffy? love the way you can see the apple shape in the snakes belly ^^ very good...hey, do you have Deviantart?? if you do please visit me -- manga-luva x thanks
BTW, how do you get a fairy-kitty on the game? I've seen others with them, on there. Do you have to do something to get them, or what?
The fairy kitty? Do you mean the floating fairy next to Sylvana? In case you do, there is a quest that will give you "Spirit Seals" that you can break to summon it. I also hand them out during events. ^^
If you mean something else - just tell me the name (hover with your mouse over the monster, and it'll show up) and post it here. You can also take a screenshot (press Shift+P, and then check your
screenshot gallery ) and show me. ^^
Aww! Theres so much detail in the background and you did a amazing job at the shading! Keep up the good work! ^-^
