Haha, I decided to try and paint the other day, so I decided to thank Lazoshi for helping me out with a small issue. I hope it's good enough for you D= The text is supposed to say "Most Unfotunate", but the effect I was going for doesn't really work well with watercolors.

Ooh, now that's pretty nice. Is that him in a helmet back there in the background?
I especially like the general style of this whole thing, it actually looks rather...chalkish like it was painted on a large slab of slate. Very nice, and unless the striping on the words is intentional, I would have reccomended you cover that area with, say, rubber cement or glue or something, paint everything else, then rub the glue/cement off and use a thin, barely wet brush to stencil that in. It still came out very nice, I know how annoying watercolors can be sometimes. X.=.x
Still, a very neato picture. The shade of the backgound is especially complimentary to the rest of the painting.

Thank you very much for the giftart.
And watercolors. That really takes me back, haven't seen something like that in... since... uh... Fifth grade art class. That's no less than 100 years ago, back in the day when we had to write letters: With pens.
It is also most unfortunate that "most unfortunate" got a little warped. Very excellent performance in any case.

Hahah, wow. The big guy could use a picture that's not by the same person. I really have to salute you for this one, because I personally was always awful with watercolors, and the pictures I attempted to paint with them always fells apart. D: So, to me especially, this looks very good. In one piece. Bravo. Yeah, the ones that splattered crap all over your clothes and paper when you didn't hold 'em right. The ones they used back in the American Revolution, when you knew your letters wouldn't reach home in less than a month.

Fanart for Lazo.
That's not by me.
This is amazing. So is the media. Watercolors are quite a rare thing to see in the online world, which is a shame because they're a nice break from other monotonous choices of media. So anyway, it's a very nice use of watercolors. It has an interesting blended background, and the shading on Lazo is pretty nice, and looks spiffy since it's watercolors. Nice job, and good job on the anatomy. I fail at drawing yoshies facing that far forward.

Darn, nice use of colors! It's impressing to use that kind of style of water color, especially since it's a rather uncommon style! Keep it up!

Ooh, wow, nice use of watercolors! They're very difficult to control, so I commend you on your performance. :D I also like how you shaded the white and blue areas. I'm sure that was pretty challenging. Yeah, a little rubber cement is great for if you want to keep an area clean of bleeding watercolors before coloring the area in.
