Elven Revenge (FFF/F Nudity)

[synapss]

Our poor tortured Elf maiden crept home under cover of night, naked, humiliated, and exhausted. She told only her sisters of her capture at the hands of the Nagas. Her sisters agreed that retribution was needed. There are few things in this world more cunning, patient, or ruthless than an Elf with a grudge.

Thus they waited and watched.
And they plotted and schemed.
And finally, they struck!

Now deep in the shadows of an ancient forest, two Nagas hang bound to trees. They are blindfolded and gagged. There is nothing they can do but wait, and listen to the distant tortured laughter of their leader. Their fearful anticipation grows as the hours roll on. This won't be rushed. Their turn is coming. One by one, the Elves will break them.

Lovely pencil illustration! Clean lines and good shading there. Only two things that pop to mind... the first is pretty big, actually.

Lack of background. Many, many people are guilty of it, but I cannot help but point it out again. Leaving a background out is like starting a scene en media res five seconds before the event ends. This would be an entirely beautiful image if it had a background. Even if it were the silhouettes and shadows of the forest, it would add so much mood.

Second is a little thing that I notice happening in a lot of illustration-style tickling art. A tendency to over-exaggerate the mouth. In particular, having full, pouty lips and a row of visible teeth, regardless of whether the teeth should be visible. What happens is that it gives the subject a very... how should I say? Undesirable face with giant teeth and goofy lips. When drawing the face, let it relax a little! The eyes mustn't be fully open all the time. Also, don't tense the lips up so much, and definitely show less teeth! Let your characters show some emotion with their eyebrows. Quite a bit of our expression comes from there. Watch your favorite actor and note that their brow will move constantly.

Relaxed is the normal state of muscles, keep that one in mind!

Beautiful (and very interesting) concept. The Naga women definitely deserve their own turn to be under the feathers. :ggrin:

Jimmy_James - Thanks for the compliments, and the constructive comments. Honestly, you likely won't see backgrounds in my pics till I feel confident I'm doing the people right. There was so much in this one I was unhappy with, I nearly tossed it instead. I just sorta ran out of steam part of the way through and the faces clearly suffered for it.

Serious_Sam - Thanks! Though I think I'm done with nagas for a while. I much prefer lees with shapely legs and feet. :ggrin:

isabeau - I'm glad you like it! The shoes were sort of a last minute thing. Bare feet are tough for me, and moccasins just weren't working. Then I thought, hmm, pointy elf-shoes? yep, that'll do.

Hot! Again, you don't see many of such mythological beings in art here terribly often, which I find a bit depressing as they have many interesting concepts. Personally I don't much miss the background, I mean it'd be a nice touch, yes, but it depends on what you're looking at it for I guess. Also, the shoes are actually unique, and I don't just mean the fact that they're on someone's feet. :laughing:

Well, I'm certainly glad that you didn't toss it. All-in-all, it's a great pic, and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Thanks, Bit, and keep it up! 🙂

Awesome bit of work you have here. I wonder if you are gonna go with other mythological creatures. But by no means switch any time soon. I wonder and hope, that this confrontation builds into an all out tickle war.

Thanks guys! You both expressed interest in more mythological creatures... What did you have in mind?

 

[player 01]

I also must voice support for this picture and agree with Excess and others to the awesomeness of mythical creatures as lers, especially lamias or monster girls in general, more in the future would be most excellent, maybe next time a multi-armed spider woman? ;D

Hehe i'm starting to enjoy this 'naga tickling idea'.
I'm curious to see what you'll do next. In any case, my thanks for the great piccie. I cannot wait for your next one!
