Fairy Tail Opening 16: Stike Back by Back-On! [8-bit]
I’m not the best drawer but here are some tips I’ve been living by.
Head:
The most basic, draw a circle to get the feel and then draw lines so the face is symmetrical.
As we all know, the typical anime face is like a pentagon. When drawing the eyes, make sure to leave room for the cheek on the face
Draw small lines under the mouth to define the lower lip
When drawing hair, draw the basic form of the hair, and then draw the smaller strands
Body
This torso only apply to anime girls, I forgot to add this but don’t forget the shoulders.
I draw hands with a square and than add four fingers on top and the thumb on the side (ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THE THUMB IS ON THE RIGHT SIDE, omg)
I did a lot of small tips, so if you need any specific help ask me.
Always draw a basic figure before drawing in the details. Here’s a tutorial about getting clean lines in traditonal
This a tutorial about expression
Bunch of generic tutorials that is kind of complicated
To get better, always look for inspiration and draw all the time. I’m not even joking, all the time. I got points docked off one time at school.
Here’s a download for Painttool Sai
This a really nice program but you’re probably going to need a tablet
Based on Coldplay’s Viva La Vida, srngdrgn and artemis100 wrote lyrics based on Lucy’s point of view. All vocals and backing track was done by me on Logic Pro X.
I had a lot of fun doing this. And I like how it turned out. I hope you like it!
Honestly I wish I could add this to Nalu week as a late contrubution but I dunno if this is Nalu enough hahaha..ha
Lyrics:
I used to save the world Spirits arrive when I gave the word Now in the morning I weep alone Cry myself to sleep ‘till dawn
[Short interlude]
I still do love the world See the joy in my comrade’s eyes Listen as the crowd would sing “Now the mages are here!” “Praise to the guild!”
One minute I held my keys Next one hand was all I see And I discovered that my guild mates clash Upon rivers of blood and pillars of ash
I hear the fierce dragon crys a’ ringin’ dragon slayer roars will keep comin’ Be my partner, my friend and savior And all of our friends will never waver
For some reason I can’t explain Once you lost it was faded My hope faded away And that was when I lost my world
[Interlude]
It was the zodiac spirit kin Opened the doors to let me in Shattered timelines and a strand of hope That they would believe where I came from
All my fallen guild mates wait For me, across the golden plains To go through troubles with them again Oh, why did Rogue destroy everything?
I hear the fierce dragon crys a’ ringin’ dragon-slayer roars will keep comin’ Be my partner, my friend and savior our guild mates they will never waver
For some reason I can’t explain I knew Natsu would call my name Never to worry again And that was when I left that world
[Interlude]
Oooh oh ooooh oh oooooooh oh. Oooh oh ooooh oh oooooooh oh. Oooh oh ooooh oh oooooooh oh. Oooh oh ooooh oh oooooooh oh.
Oooh oh ooooh oh Hear Celestial voices singin’ Fairy Tail mages have been beaten Be their savior, their sword and shield To save them, I will never yield
For some reason I can’t explain I know my friends would call my name Even if odds are thin For their sakes I won’t give in
I’ve been waiting for the day that the new main theme would come out…
I could say that it was more than worth the wait…
Yes. YESS.
just adjust opacity and size depending on how crisp lines you want
this shit took like 10 minutes
i told you i’d do art for it…anyway Natsu’s major flaw in this AU is that he thinks he has to shoulder everything himself, refusing to rely on others due to his father abandoning him. Lucy is trying to break this false-belief but he doesn’t seem to get it (yet)
dragon Natsu (basically Igneel) referenced from this because dragons are hard to draw
