Goldfish Bowled

Was originally going to be part of the sketch dump I just submitted, but because I had already applied a bunch of pastel effects, I decided to make it standalone. I haven't talked with *HyperactiveMothMan yet, so I don't know for sure if Oliver is still best friends with Gale even if he isn't Matthew anymore, but I'm assuming they still are, so while in Shamwari I drew Oliver and Gale doing what Matthew and Gale always did: torment Gale's brother Damien, because he's a jerk who deserves punishment. Gale has Materialization powers, and Oliver has Water powers, so they teamed up and trapped Damien's head in a fish bowl and corked it. They actually aren't done yet; Maple's going to grab Damien's hands and feet, and then he'll be at their mercy!

Was going to be a messy blob of wire frames like all the other sketches I just posted, but Oliver looked so nice that I decided to use a neat little trick I learned with charcoal in Drawing class and pasteled the edges around everything in a way that portrays depth, even though it doesn't let you see Oliver's uber cool markings peeking out from under his shirt very well. Damien also turned out really nicely (ignore the differing wings between Damien and Gale), and Gale turned out alright, but he could have been better. The picture wasn't meant to be anything special at first, and without internet I wasn't able to reference either vampire. Gale's mark was from memory; Damien's I referenced this evening.

Raymanians aren't my strongest race to draw, but *HyperactiveMothMan's a good friend so I decided, "Heck, I'll give it a go."
