Title: RA2GE Legends Unleashed: Character Showcase!
Post by: Gigafrost on December 10, 2008, 09:16:12 AM
Got your attention? Good because this will be the thread of which I will show you guys what your characters look like in my upcoming RA2GE Series!

In a 2-3 month's worth, I have been studying all of your character's physical traits, strengths and weaknesses and only have 1 more Exam (Friday). Meaning that tonight and Thursday will be free to me to start using Paint.Net Powerpoint and Photoshop.

I will showcase the first drawing tonight... Along with it's Showcase video sometime later. Stay tuned to see who the first official character will be!

Experience the Difference... -RA2GE

It's good, but still two things that would make it completely awesome:

-Darker clothes.

-Eyes aren't that big and round and not green, in fact physically just like a human's excepted the elongated vertical pupil (cat-like)

__________

If you don't want to change completely the drawing, just give him dark clothes and darken the eyes.

@Nar- Since he is Half Human/Half Dragon, I made his eyes look more reptilian like. With human-like white eyes, he looks like a guy in a costume contest for holloween. Remember that I am doing an Anime version of all the characters as well, so I tried to make his eyes as small as possible, while still giving him an eastern dragon look. On that note, His face and arms alone took 35 minutes to sketch, and another 20 minutes to do the shading. I am actually surprised that you said nothing about the change I did with the ears!
 
The clothes could be darker, I agree. Just rushing. But to solve the white-eye issue, I will make a pallete of all the characters (like selecting different colors for the characters in SSBM/SSBB). But you have to say, Nar looks sexy in white <3

Yes, i realize you spend some time on that - and the ears are only slightly changed, but eyes are more important. But you're right, eyes that round aren't bad - the actual physique is very good, just the colors that matter.

White work clothes for a metalworker ?? They'll be stained in no time ! And red, grey and black are more suited for a metalworker, also.

Anyways, i know that i'm being a pain so i made several changes myself to your drawing, for simplyfing your work;

(Gimp color tools ftw)

I realized he looked awesome with fiery colored eyes rather than white ones (red dragon -> fire dragon) and gave him darker clothes.

Interesting. I will make those changes soon enough (But white will still be a selectable color option!!!). So you do not mind that his eyes are large right? I feel that they make him more expressive and intimidating IMO. And don't worry, all the characters will have largeish eyes.

Post by: Naryar on December 12, 2008, 12:01:54 PM
I don't mind anymore. Indeed it does makes him more intimidating. He IS designed to be intimidating, as you probably know.

That's just fine now, thanks!

Gig, an idea or two for your drawings ...:

Naryar: he's a metalworker, right?  Then draw him with a hammer and an anvil, in front of a fiery forge.  The fiery eyes and dark stained clothes look great.

Urjak: since he's a spider, what are you forgetting that's the most obvious?  Perhaps a spiderweb, with a bot or two helplessly caught in the web?  The purple one looks the best, although personally I would say it's just a shade too dark.  The lighter purple feet don't look quite right - make them the same color as the rest of the carapace.  Try for a purple in between those two.

If you need some help touching up the drawings before posting, let me know.  Also, if you have a scanner, it might be easier to do your drawings on paper first, then scan them into the system - doing them all freehand on a computer is harder.

Thanks everyone for your feedback thus far, it really helps me know what to draw next!

@ Spy- Feel free to take my pics and edit them to your choosing. I am just giving you guys a little sample of the character as to what they will look like in the game. Since Urjak is a mutated spider, I wanted him to look like an alien but with that spidery feel to it.

The lighter feet deal and color brightness for the purple color hue can easily be changed. I am making these characters by themselves however with as little side objects to it as possible (webbing, fire, etc.) as these things may get in the way of my changes (however you will indeed see them in more action in the game itself!). Now don't get me wrong, i HIGHLY agree with what you are saying and respect it, and also, as said before, feel free to make the changes. Also, don't worry, it isnt to draw them over as they are project files hehehe.

Oh my GOD. HE is AWESOME. (Sorry for caps usage). That is GREAT Gigafrost. I like his mutated feeling. He is not quite a regular looking spider. I think he looks great, and very great in that yellowish coloration. GREAT job.
