The drawing thread

[Thorvald of Lym]

Effin' A.

Purple-eyes reminds me of someone else, but I can't put my finger on whom.

 

[Takhisis]

Don't know what it's suppoed to be but it's great.

 

[DaemonDD]

Glad it's approvable for people so far.

@Thorvald: It might be because of the hair, but he looks a little similar to Alex in some aspects. There's no way I'm going to give them similar chins though.

 

[DaemonDD]

Double-post, but cue for a test portrait:

Thorvald of Lym in his DYOS incarnation.

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

To paraphrase mythmonster2, I'm hella honoured by this. Fer sure it's more 'realistic' in composition, but it's still solidly reflective of your style. It might be a test, but you're off to a great start.

 

[DaemonDD]

Gratitudes, Thorvald. I do hope (and think) it's a good first step, but I do have a lot to work with here.

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Super efforts on both pictures, DD, I remain in awe

 

[Tani Coyote]

Both pictures are great, DD!

Issue 2.9. Copypasta is delicious with marinara.

"Why is good said to be stronger than evil?
Why is love so valuable to thee?
Why is Chaos held to be so powerful?
I have none of the these things, yet none can defeat me."

"I savor the cries of children
The weeps of mothers
The anger of men
Young, old, male, female, sick healthy, they are all smothered."

"That glint, how I love when it dims
They ask 'why, why do you do this?'
I break them with but a thought, and hiss,
'Because of sentients' sins.'"

"As much as I relish sentients' pain,
Alas, how much negativity I gain.
Increasingly with each painful, gruesome death, I am left unfulfilled,
One day I will find the one, the worthy opponent who I have not killed."

This was something doodled up very quickly. I just wanted to get the essence of the character down.

 

[Takhisis]

Good drawing, but I can't help disliking the macho hedgehog theme.

 

[Tani Coyote]

What macho hedgehog theme? :S

In terms of personality or appearance?

 

[Takhisis]

Appearance.

 

[Heretic_Cata]

He means the implied gay porn part.

 

[Tani Coyote]

Appearance.

The Sonic style's very hard to get right.

I find it hard to do the noodly limbs and whatnot, but try to avoid overt musculature.

His broad shoulders, however, would seem to give him a more muscular appearance.

I'll keep this in mind when I get around to Knuckles.

 

[Takhisis]

Ye-es, but Cata got it right actually.

 

[Tani Coyote]

Well then. Have some female for a change then:

This was a concept I did for a character in a webcomic that Dem Taqat, Lighthearter, RS, and Omega are working on.

The plot basically is anthropomorphised countries; this one in particular is going to be France. Or at least, pending the Editor(LH)'s thoughts. She's had many design stages - we've pondered different hair colors, simplified stockings, etc.

 

[Takhisis]

I like the eyes.

 

[DaemonDD]

Actually, the eyes are the ones I like the least. They're pretty good, but perhaps a little too big in a way. That's just my opinion though, it's probably something that's within your style to include big eyes. The rest is well done, even though the chest looks like it covers half of her body.

Indeed! Big eyes seem to be a forte of the anime style anyway(from what I've seen), and I draw a lot of influence from anime due to my younger days where I'd pick up a lot of tutorials.

The rest is well done, even though the chest looks like it covers half of her body.

My female anatomy is a bit horrid. I blame the fact I don't draw them often. I don't draw many humans either - this webcomic should be a learning experience accordingly, as I've been brought on as the main artist, or as LH put it, "TF, you ARE the art team."

mouse art!

have a little girl

Much better than what I can make with my mouse. :s

Very foreboding, nonetheless.

 

[Chukchi Husky]

My scanner no longer works, and I don't know how to fix it, so I had to use a camera.

I did this quickly, which is why it still looks rough, but it ended up taking a few months because of how little time I get when I'm left alone.

 

[Tani Coyote]

Ah, you and I are both in the same boat, Chuchki - I went fully digital myself since my scanner decided to die.

Fox and Sonic together! The Kings of Speed!

Fox looks very nice, and his complexity is an interesting contrast to Sonic's simplicity.

Based on how Fox is standing ahead of Sonic, it's obvious he isn't, but he looks almost like he's putting the gun to Sonic's head. XD
