GiftRaptor's Fan Art

[GiftRaptor]

It's still taking me some time to get used to this whole forum experience, but I think I'm getting the hang of it little by little. I ended up going to my old Photobucket account just so I could properly display these images correctly or at least better than any monitor could display. This is everything I have done that is Katawa Shoujo related so far. In the future I will try to specifically update this topic/thread (whateves) in particular.

Feel free to throw around opinions and constructive criticism. I'm a cool guy, I can take it.

The last KS birthday is Misha, which is at the start of November, so it won't be for a while. That won't stop me from making some more fanart, because quite frankly Katawa Shoujo is the shit. Heck if you've got a good idea, let me hear it. I might just draw it up. I can't handle something too complicated, but I can always try. I get the practice and you get to see what I do.

Here's my deviantART if you want to check out the few other things I've done as well.

That about sums up my shameless self-promotion. Enjoy!!

This one was a collaboration with a friend. He did the lines and I colored it so that there is no misunderstanding.

This one was the most recent and done for Hanako's Birthday, because she's awesome.

Did this for Misha's birthday. It was kind of rushed, so I might work on it a little more. Probably not.

I like those alot, especially the 3rd one. However, the eyes on some of them... gah. It just don't work for me. The first one is probably a good example of what i mean.

Lovely work anyway.

[LorSquirrel]

I really like the third one, it's pretty good.

other than that? the faces look a little weird in some of the pictures, and yeah so do the eyes.

[GiftRaptor]

I understand that Emi's eyes look strange in the first one. That's was a test, which didn't turn out well. As for the others; I don't know what to say. There is no correct way to do draw/color eyes. I also realize some of the faces are misshapen. What's done is done.

[Oddball]

That's pretty awesome work. Very nice use of colors.

I think the picture with Shizune and her stuffed cat is my favorite.

I've actually favorited a couple of these on dA. <3

I actually really like your art style. I don't know how long you have been drawing, but I think one day your style is going to become very unique, and I'm actually eager to see how it develops in the future! I mean, it looks like you've been drawing for a while. ouo

The first picture with Emi, I actually really like her eyes! They stand out, they're more recognizable as eyes than someone's average anime eyes, and you colored them beautifully. Nice shading on the overall picture also! I love the way you colored/drew the desk and her lips. I think there's just something about the legs; maybe size? Even with the prosthetics in mind, there seems to be something off about them. But overall, I really like the picture! It's just a really cool art style and I really appreciate it!

Lilly pic, I adore the effort you put into the background. Some folks would just leave background blue, add a wave or two in black ink, and say, "IT'S THE SEA! :U"

Emi and Rin, I love this! The shading is great, poses, etc. Coolios!

Shizune, I really like the cartoonish style Shizune is drawn in. Her head seems a bit big, but it still looks okay. I love how you colored her socks-- I think I really love your coloring style. I seriously dig it. I want to say, the way you color gives certain items interesting textures-- textures that seem tangible if that makes sense.

The rest are nice too. ouo First is my fave though. Those pretty eyes. <3

I'm happy to hear that you like some of them. I've been drawing for a many years and I'm basically self taught; with the exceptions of a few high school classes. Drawing is a hobby to me after all. I want to try adapting into a anime and manga art style or at least using both my wip style with other things. With each project I get just a little bit better or more efficient, whatever comes first. None the less, I'm glad I got to draw a bunch of Katawa Shoujo stuff and plan on drawing more.

Anyway, thanks. I really appreciate hearing all this.

I love the one with Emi and Rin sitting back to back, it makes me wonder what they're smiling at.

[Oddball]

You're doing great work.
