Ratty's late night Death Note sketches *More added on page 6*

Mikami turned out really well. I wish I could draw anime like that.

Oh my gosh, I love the picture of Mikami - nice job.

Thanks, guys. Lucky, I think the trick is to focus on one little bit at a time. Like, first I draw the jawline and whatever part of the face isn't covered by hair. Then I do the hair one little lock at a time, and then the eyes, nose, and mouth, and then the neck/shoulders/clothes.

That's a good tip! Thanks. I'll try that.

No prob.

I don't want to overload the front page, so here's some more.

And yes, I fail at drawing hands. Dx

Oh yeah, and, I have five blank pages left in my sketchbook (it was more than half done when I started, and I have another one) and I want to at least finish that, but I have nothing else to draw... Ideas? And just so you know, I don't want to draw a Shinigami. xP

Oooh, Matt and Mikami are really good! :33

But the others aren't? D:

Haha, JK. xD Thanks.

Oh psht, darling. xD Actually I think all of the ones in the fourth post are really good, even compared to the ones on the first post which I still thought were good.

Well, thankee. Even though I made L's hand way too big in the last one... xD I really like how Near turned out in the one with L and Near and Mello all together. I was thinking about leaving him out of the picture because the original artist hadn't drawn him too well (s/he admitted it him/herself, in the dA caption thing) but then I tried it and he turned out looking almost exactly like he does in the anime. At least, I think he does. xD

Lol, I didn't even notice L's hand, to be honest. xD

Really? His fingers are like twice as long as they should be. xD Oh well, now he's even more monkey-ish.

Yay monkeys!

Yush. If I could draw things out of my head I'd draw a half-monkey half-L thing. xD

These are good, Ratty! ^^ I think my favourite of these is Mikami. You added this bit of curve to his hair that made him look so much more kakkoii, somehow. ^-^ Keep up the good work, and you'll keep getting better and better! Once you begin to really get the hang of shading and even out the proportions, you'll improve even more.

Thanks, Mo. Yeah, Mikami is definitely the best one I've done... I don't like his collar, though. Oh well. xD What's kakkoii?

Just did a bunch more. And I uploaded them while barefooted, dressed in a white shirt and blue pants, and sitting like L. It was painful. I don't know how he does it. xD

Anyway, I once again failed at drawing Light and hands. I even made L's hand too big again. Because it was in the same position. Why does he do that? Dx

I finished my old sketchbook from comics class in sixth grade. It took me a whole semester to fill half of it, two and a half days to fill the other half. xD At least I have two more mostly-empty sketchbooks lying around.

And I have decided that Near and L are my favorites to draw. So expect most of my pictures from now on to include them.

Light and L:

Near:

L holding a fork:

Mini-L and Watari:

L holding a sign:



Yes, I messed up his hand. Again. Any ideas on what the sign should say?

Spoiler:

EDIT: Here's some more. There's only three, so I didn't bother with a whole new post.

L:

Spoiler:

Mello and Matt:



Yes, they're M&Ms. Cyn came up with the idea. xD In case you were wondering, Mello is a yellow M&M and Matt is red.

And this one isn't a sketch; it's a lineart of the Mikami picture I did before. I like the sketch better, though. And I made the chin and eyes too thick.



ANOTHER EDIT: Just one this time. I like this one. Except Aizawa's head is too small.

Matsuda and Aizawa:

Spoiler:

Hey, you're getting better at L's hair!

Awesome pics, Ratt-Sama. :3

Kakkoii is the masculine form of kawaii. ^^ It means cool/handsome, rather than cute/loveable.

OMG, I love the one of L holding a fork. :3

I LOVE THE NEAR ONE

You are getting better every time

I'm making Near and L as cats >3

@Mia: I know! Thanks.

@Mo: Ahh.

@Shad: Me toooo. I messed up my sketch, though. xD The real one's a lot better.

@TSOD: Thanks. Ooh, cool! You must post that when you're done.

Haha, I loooove your avvie. xD He's a Kira, she's a Kira, and another (corporate Kira), thoughtful Kira, psycho Kira, Kira, Kira, L! xD

I love it too

Added more in the second post on this page.

M&M! -squeal-

I love that one. <3
