Guild Wars meets Art Nouveau

Ohai! o/

It's been a while since I uploaded a look in here and I am really sorry for being a lazy person lately. Maybe I will be uploading something, soon!

For now I though I could present you some other hobbies of mine :D I think it's a shame that this section of the website is almost dead. I rarely see someone using this platform to share their artworks with others so I thought: heey, why not giving it a try?

Drawing and painting is basically my passion. Sadly I turned into a lazy person here, as well but before the laziness attacked I was able to draw some GW2 characters!
This one for example was a commission long time ago for my lovely Elessar! It's her Elementalist who doesn't look like this at all anymore, I think she changed her look over 40 times since I painted that one :P

The other's are my friend's male Mesmer. Sadly he doesn't play GW2 anymore but I still enjoyed painting it for him. Also the third one is actually my Mesmer :D
It bothers me a bit that I HAVE to link a look in here because none of these looks are actually uploaded on this site and my Mesmer- look I posted in here is a complete different one but, oh well, I really wanted to share some old paintings!

For anyone who is curious:
- My inspiration were Art Nouveau- paintings, especially from Alphonse Mucha.
- I took some pose- references to get the proportions right and I had some character- screens, of course
- Everything has been painted with watercolours (or aquarell, I don't know how you call it)
- My female Mesmer is the only painting I am not too happy with and some accidents happend that made me cry inside.

Ah well, enough spam, I hope you like these little paintings and would love to get some feedback ^^


Edit: My scanner sucks btw and I am a poor university student who isn't able to affort a good one :(

Ooooh, you uploaded those, really cool! * *
I wish I had paintings like these of all of my toons, but then you´d be busy the next five years xD
The detail is just so amazing and I love all the different influences you drew from Art Noveau; one of my favourite periods of art ^^
Bummer that you can´t vote on these art contributions, I´d love to give you a full gold!

They look so awesome *,*
I enjoy(ed) painting quite a lot myself, but i always sucked with watercolours. Therefore i just adore your amazing talent even more!!!
The details are just so cool! You really outdid yourself on the phoenix chest-piece!!! Though everything looks just stunning :O
And those "mosaiques" in the background make the paintings look like church windows, kinda ^^
I really love that style!!!
Amazing work! You are so talented :D
