Remake of a picture. XD I didn't like the old one, so I thought to re-draw it. I like Merri and Noko a lot, so except lots of pictures of them - maybe it be separately or together. Hehe. The sword she is holding belongs to Noko. ^^ He won't let anyone hold it, but she can get away with it.
Another picture of Merri - this time holding onto Noko's prized pendant, as if something horrible has happened to him.

I can't really tell the difference with the first one..
The 2nd one is really nice though, but the ears seem a bit too high (and a bit short) if you compare it to the other one... The hand is very notably nice and detailed... Which is extremely hard for me...
These two were some I did in free time at school, I had traced some proportioning out of some animes I was watching and figured out a basic body structure and shapes as a standard for me, so it kinda helped a lot.
Notably, for this, her left hand is off, and goes into her knee...
For this one, her eyebrows are kinda off xDD, and the legs are kinda off in proportioning, meaning that her thigh is too short...

Here's a little splurge of character ideas for The Manifest Destiny, a 'verse I started developing maybe a month or two back, but only really got to work on with the start of NaGaDevMo. I figured I'd go for a more cartoony aesthetic since the game isn't really that grimdark and gritty.
And yeah, I know, I need a bloody scanner.

Trying some monochrome inking techniques with some concept art for a game character.
Here's the initial sketch.
I had to re-size the images a little because they where too big

My character, Corinne.
I like this a whole lot very muchTomas":2de5i3z6 said:sorry for the fact that it's not just a 'sketch' ;D
it's a turnaround for a character for an animation i'll have to make
I always have a bastard of a time doing those turnaround dealies,
my patience typ peters out somewhere on the 2nd or 3rd pose, and I go ADD and flitter away.
The faces posted 1 post below it are ... Strange. They look apelike. And yet somehow remind me of the Beast from that B&tB series on TV from the 80's.

Remind you of anyone?
I've been lurking the picture thread, drawing each and every one of you! Be very afraid! :crazy: :shock:
By the way cool pic Makasu. I have a really cheap scanner so mine always look gritty. You can just use Mediafire, they don't take down or re-size your images if you get a free account.
The UI's a little different these days though.

I think that's my fault.
I think that's my fault.
So is there some reason why there aren't any new post? Because I haven't checked the forum for a long time and I still see my post from back then on this page...
Anyways, I've been drawing and have been trying to draw more...
I for some reason can't ink it without it looking weird.. any idea on why?

yeah the thread's not as active as it once was 
anyway that looks p nice, zchin!
when you ink a thing, you lose some of that ... organic quality, that pencil gives off. You can't shade it the same way, and you can't make subtle lines with ink. Every line with inking is going to be SOLID BLACK, but with pencil, you have anything from SUPER LIGHT GREY ALMOST WHITE to GREY to PRETTY DARK GREY, and everything inbetween ...
the change of mediums often will make a piece have a TOTALLY different feel.
if you're intent on definitely inking a piece of work that you've pencilled, you'll have to draw in pencil with that consideration in mind. You'll have to try to maintain thin, clean lines, and avoid smudging or feinting or lightly shading. B/c your pen just will not be capable of any of that

well the charm of the piece, IMO anyway, stems from the messiness & thickness of the linework.zchin":38k48i9k said:

It is sad this thread isn't as active anymore.
Here is a drawing I drew a week or so ago - just haven't taken a picture of it. XD
It is Aelina's younger sister, Reina (from Ghost Shards). ^^
