Au Batido - Fraze Commish by *Leoness:iconLeoness:

Artist's Comments

A commish for Fraze.

It's a Capoeria move called Au Batido (Broken Cartwheel). Image google it if you wanna compare the move.

He's going to be holding a table in the hand you can't see at the moment.

There's gonna be an origami crane in the background.

Fraze is (c) to... well... Fraze xD This guy ---> :iconfrazeocity:

Edit: Redid the foot, added face and details.

Edit: Finished the lineart. The table will be put in once I colour, because I made it in a 3D program. Much easier xD (which is why you're not seeing the foot and left hand - the table will cover them anyway)

Edit: Can you say 'finally'? T.T
Anyways! I added the table and the background. I hope it's not too far off from you idea of a hewn stone table, Fraze ^^; So now it's just colouring and this baby will be done. Unless someone points out something I need to fix C:

Edit: Added some skintone and shading. I'd like some feedback on how it works with the light source (right around 2-3 o-clock) before I continue xD

Edit: Added some more colour and details. Not quite done yet though xD Slimmed the table legs a bit too.

Yay! Thank you, Hu-hu *hu-ggles* x3
:iconleoness:
Glad you like it so far, Frazy :3
:iconlunariiku:
Amazing as always Leo!

It could be just me, but his arm looks a little too slanted to the left (the one he's holding himself up with). I'm not sure but it should be more perpendicular to the ground for better balance, unless he's equaling out the balance with the table... my brain hurts. xD

Good spotting there x3

See, it's actually -supposed- to be slated to the left, because he's not (and I hope I'm right here, Fraze xD ) supposed to 'stand' on one arm, as it is a 'kick' move that you move out of quite fast... if that makes any sense. I think maybe Fraze is better at explaining it, since I have no experience with Capoeira xD

But thanks a lot *huggles* ^-^

Actually, I'm learning that balance is a big part of it, so it is important to try to keep your arm perpendicular to the floor. But, the table probably acts as a counterweight, so it might be good to lean to one side.

Alright. Thanks for clearing that up for me :3

*Stares for several minutes, mumbling to himself and occasionally ooohing and squeeing*
I'm very glad to see you've progressed on this!
The way you've done the Table is a bit different from how I've always imagined it. For one, I always thought of the legs as being thicker, but the way you've done them actually makes more sense--easier to hold on to.
Also, the little drawer is win! I wonder what one would keep in there...

The only thing I see that could be worked on are the near table legs. This is partially perspective, but they seem wider and shorter than the back legs, especially the nearest one. It isn't too important, and I know that I asked for something pretty difficult perspective-wise. But if you think you can fix the legs without too much difficulty, that would be great.

Other than that, this is looking really good. Thank you for making my day!
