Artist's Comments

Just a quick fanart I made of Vaarsuvius, the elf mage from the suuuper cool on-line comic The Order of the Stick ([link]).

(If you're a RPG games fan, go read it! It's simply great :)!)

This drawing was fun to do ^_^.

Oh, by the way, don't ask me if that's a girl or a guy... 'Cause, as OOTS fans already know, V's gender is one of those great misteries of life, that probably will never be revealed XD.

So, if you just can't tell if Vaarsuvius looks like a girl or a guy... then I made a good job on this fanart ;)...

Hope you like it!

:EDIT: I loved this pic so much I decided to re-draw and re-color it... OMG! This new version looks SO much better than the old one (proud ^_^)! What do you think?

I LOVE the ear. I just can't take my eyes off it. It just looks amazing.
At first glance, nothing to say with the picture, but then I tried to find things to criticize (I hope you don't mind, I like constructive criticism and kinda act like other people like it too).
Thats when I noticed two things, both not really important, but I thought I'd share. First, the nose. The upper part, for some reason, doesn't look to me like it would connect with the bottom part, even though they should technically be the same line, right? I'm nit sure why, though. Something looks wrong with the angle. I might hae imagined it.
The other thing is the right eye (left for us). It's normal for it to look smaller, but I think it might be too small. It looks a bit like it's not as high as the other one (by which I mean, smaller vertically).

Apart from these two nitpick, it's just great. Really androgeinous, I can see both a male and a female in the drawing, which isn't easy to do. I also really like the expression, it's mostly neutral but still with a hint of superiority, if you know what I mean?

Oh, and I also really like the headband, although I think maybe it should be a bit curved to follow the shape of the face, it looks a bit like V has a flat forehead as it is. But I'm not sure how it would look...

I hope you don't take the comments in a bad way, I just didn't feel like posting a comment to just say "nice, I like it", I wanted to be more detailled. I do really like your drawing and I think it's great :)

I'm glad you liked the picture, and I'm really happy about your compliments :bow: (now I'm so proud of that ear :aww:). I'm glad I got the expression and the androgeinous look right ^_^.
About the constructive critics, I don't mind them at all, specially when the person is polite (just like you were ^_^). And I agree with all of your critics, by the way... the nose, the eye, and also the headband... I looked at the picture and said: "Oh, my, she's totally right! I didn't notice those things before...".

Thank you very much for both the compliments and the positive critics! I hope you keep seeing and commenting my works :)

I think you got his/her expression JUST right.

Personally, I think Vaarsuvius is a man. I don't know why, it just seems right. *nodnod*
:iconkunoichi-mai-chan:
Thank you ^_^.

And, btw, I agree with you, I also think V is a guy... Thou maybe we'll never know for sure XD.

S/he is perfectly balenced between looking like a male and looking like a female. Very V.
