Cell Sketches For DarthGlacier

This is for , who is as much a Cell fangirl as I am a Frieza fangirl.

I spent nearly all day editing this from the original sketches I made, until it seemed more like a full piece of art, & not just a sketch. Soooo......I decided to put it in my Gallery.

See, I can draw more than just Frieza.

Cell is a hard bugger to draw, too. Knowing Frieza's anatomy helped me out a bit, but deviating from that, I quickly entered "WTH is this anatomy?!" territory. Gah. I only had the patience for these 3 sketches, so I have great respect for anyone who draws him regularly.

You can see that I started with an easy warm-up, the bust in the left corner. From there, I took a giant leap & drew an action pose. Then, I lost all seriousness & drew him chibi. Dangit.

He's totally peeved because I'm ruining his perfection with my shoddy artwork. Well screw you Cell! I'll draw you as badly as I want, until I get better at it!

If you want to see the original sketch, check my Scraps. I originally just did everything black & white, manga style, which came back to bite me later when I had to recolor Cell's facial markings, which are purple, but are rendered black in the manga style.

Also, this marks the first real drawing I've submitted since I left for my internship. Huzzah! I missed my home P.C., my Wacom, & my PhotoShop.
