Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

You will regret this! Incoming goatse

this page is one for the books
I envy so much about what you do.
This is a four page comic I'm working on. I have not added text yet. Please crit, I don't have enough to make a thread yet!
Thanks!
For reference the text will read as follows:
Holy smoke! I'ts bunny town.
Everybody gather round
See them living just like us
But its cuter you can trust
Heres the mayor, he's running things
Bribe with carrots, he'll pull strings.
A liquor licence you now have
Sell to minors that is bad
Policeman bunny sees it all!
Give more carrots, take no fall.
Corruption runs this bunny town
that is why they've never found
Mr. Floppy selling arms
Peanut Brittle's special farm.
All this trouble seems so awful
But keep in mind as you see the brothel,
Drugs and murder, rape and crooks,
The biggest problem overlooked...
Carrots are not a stable form of currency.
I'm going to do some actual ukiyo-e prints some time in spring. Trying to copy the style a bit.

bahaha!
I tried coloring this thing.

The ear on the far right one is too small, I just realized.

A Glam Rock request from my dear brother. Take that as you will.
Yes, the mirror is floating or something. I don't know.

Drew this today. Im so over pirates now.
The one in the frog is gradual enough to be inoffensive (to me, anyway) so you could go either way with that I think, but ultimately I think flat fills better serve what you're going for.
I really have to start making more prints--I am pretty competent at the carving part, but the drawing part is still a weakness.
WCK - I'm digging that design, although his head IS a bit small. Lots of cool accessories there, gives him a nice world-traveler feel.
Veldrin - Very nice ass on that dude. The mustache makes him look like he's a 40-year old accountant cosplaying.
Obi - That little divot taken out just off the side of her chin is throwing me off. Her breasts look to be very high, if you're going for the "pushed up" look from her shirt, I think they just need to be more rounded, but I don't know if that's what you're shooting for.
On my end, I realized it was Tam's birthday about a day after he did (and he realized a day late!) so I made a drawing

thx guys

I don't see a problem with using a gradient on the background either, I just think the shading on the grass beneath him is a little extreme in transition compared with the rest of the coloring in the pic, so it draws my attention. The sky is really gradual and subtle too, so it's not as jarring.
I'm not a scholar on ukiyo-e prints, so I'm not speaking from a technical aspect, just how I'm seeing it aesthetically.

also, didn't realize there was an alt version of your- ARGH NOOO scarred for life my eyes!

I love this. Did you have a strong idea of this character before you started? What was your general process?
and I have been called a dickhead, so
so glad i come in here periodically
Sort of! I'm doing this for the artorder blog challenge thang. So 'human' and 'fighter' were part of the prompt.
I knew I wanted to do an ugly character. Someone who looked like they had been fighting, someone brutal - and I had been talking to some friends recently about the dearth of ugly women in games. I decided I wanted someone sort of in between Rachel Dart's barbarian women and Grace Jones. I knew I wanted to go mostly near white monochrome on the clothing to contrast against the skin tones. So I didn't stray into 'paladin' territory I wanted to look at gladiator armor as inspiration - the more brutal looking the better.
that lady's face is way too symmetrical to be called ugly
you should make her face more disproportionate
maybe some scars
I guess I should have thrown 'ugly' in quotes - the discussion here at work was more in reference to the ridiculous standard of beauty for women in video games. Because, no, I agree, shes not ugly, but she is ugly for video games.
My apologies.
oh wass you just so sweet
that makes more sense
also I agree that the way women are depicted in most videogames is ridiculous
