Usually, when it comes to talking about djuby's work, you'd be expecting a lot of talk about costumes, right. Well this week neither of the characters featured are clothed (as far a I can tell), but it's alright because the pictures are headshots. And the reason why they're being featured is because, well, just look at that shading. The hair on Opal is beautiful and the facial shading on both (but particularly Lapis) is stunning. It shows just how much you can add to a fairly simple picture by adding a bit of well thought out shading.

Those cheekbones on Lapis look like they could cut somebody. Great work. π
. . . and considering how Candruth shades, that’s a well-deserved compliment.
@hawk–were you going for a character that envelops or sends away? Either is just as feasible as a character, but I find the envelopers less scary and the senders less interesting.
Assuming this is directed towards me (maybe not), kind of enveloping, I guess. Like, consuming, maybe?
What a nice surprise! Thanks for the nod, and the kind words. Means a lot.
