Guess not. Well it's not like this has never happened before in a contest, get after it Tatyrsauce!
We still don't know how the later berths will work (any more details Bubba?) but there will probably some kind of point defecit to
make up so I'd say it's better to get something posted even if it's not complete just to be in from the start.
**lights a fire (heh
) under any other last minute entrants too**
NOTICE: That deadline is Eastern so make sure you adjust time for your timezone accordingly.
P.S. Bubba the OP still says Sat is the 21st and Sunday is the 22nd (start of voting) these should read 22nd and 23rd respectively.

No fair they're hogging all the sunshine!
Nice work on the cloud.

Eddy and Nema are a winning combination no doubt, I too was very impressed by the smoke effect.

Ahh, i've been waiting to see this coloured as i'm doing a night time rooftop scene myself. This is slightly different though as it's moonlight lit, whereas in mine the moon is obscured and i've lit it from the city glow. Love the smoke from the pipes, love the green armour and love the fact he's engraved the artists sig into the brick. Grats on another great piece Caem.

Happy Birthday Shadow Ravenwolf!
Hope it was a great day man.

Off to a good start!
It's a WIP I realize but aren't her eyes supposed to be completely black and soulless? As in no iris (although there may be a white pupil or reflection). Not sure if it's something central to the character or if VexXxa minds one way or another because I've seen a couple done of her with normal eyes (Doug Schuler, DaggerPoint etc but they don't really play CoH) too.
-
Looks fine to me, one suggestion though, maybe try the black gun in the white hand and the white gun in the black hand. Having the guns reversed might tie in with the mask (which is the reverse colors of the arms) a little better and make it more cohesive.

That's one serious sunburn there CR lol.
I think i've had one that bad before... though maybe it just felt that way.
You're welcome sofacat.Quote:Originally Posted by sofacat
Thanks ChristopherRobin, that is exactly the effect I was thinking of!
Man I really spend way too much time in the CC.

There are a great many looks one can achieve that were not originally intended.

What I was describing above looks like this...
...but yours is a good effect too Oath depending on what look he/she is going for.
@Genesis Man: Also a good suggestion but the problem with the emblem blends is they leave
the sides, back and stomach unburnt and it looks kinda like you got burnt by a spotlight to the chest
whereas this looks a bit more like a real top down burn from overhead sunlight both from the front and the back.
P.S. I used the "dark eyes" face mask in reverse to get the unburnt around the
eyes effect as it's more of a gradual blend than hard line.

Thanks for posting all this info up Comrade. Alas I am not on "teh facebookz" and so cannot support you in this fashion but it makes for interesting reading and is good for future reference.
P.S. You never mentioned what Captain America and Shang-Chi were skilled at but I'm guessing Fighting?

sooooo many rules to this stuff.
Here's what I came up with for Sagittarius...
and for his chest I was thinking either the symbol for the actual constellation
(a rotated "Neptune" chest detail with two prongs removed comes pretty close to the real thing)
or a patch of fur, (the lion2 chest detail with both colors set the same)
whichever you think works better for your purpose.

If you have a decent screenshot I could tell you exactly what they are doing to get it.
If not you will have to be more specific what you mean by a sunburn effect. Just reddish skin? patches? certain areas on the body? Without knowing more my first guess would be a combination of the "blend" pattern choosing the reddish burnt color for the top and whatever skin tone you use for the bottom.

I was just checking the deadline and noticed that too, I was going based on the number 22 but if it's Friday the 21st
people will need to know ASAP especially considering the flurry of last minute entries that seem to happen with these.

I believe it's a matchbox and he's trying to "strike" her.

Whew, made it back with a brand new computer and new graphics tablet and a new sketch to show for it.
*resists urge to leave constructive critique*
Ummm I like how the guy turned out (especially his hair), he seems to have a good grasp on the situation.

OMZ! What are the freakin odds of that happening??? Did you come up with this idea or was it Rhardo (so I'z know whoz name tah curse to da heavenzez!)
Ummm remember when I asked you what Airhead might contemplate if he were to ever get lost in thought?
...and the stuff I asked when I was sketching up his red boots?
Yeah well guess what Rodin statue had prompted me to do that?
I was all like, Hah! No one's gonna see this coming... Airhead as "The Thinker" lol

no, that's fine,
I see how it is Cami.
and we get to see this drawing you're working on when?Quote:Originally Posted by Kai
I'm a decently funded person for arts so usually stay out of the free art posts to let other people get them, but if someone whose style I dig has an outstanding 'post a ref' and no one seems to have answered yet? Heck yeah I'm gonna pounce on it
And I was inspired to work on my current drawing for a bit then, so thanks x2!
-
Only reason it wasn't taken is the original post failed to convey "first to post gets free art".
I saw the post minutes after she put it up (and would've snagged it) but thought she meant that
she was going to randomly pick a character name out of a bucket or something, not that I should post a ref.
First person to post ≠ random to me I guess.
Gratz though Kai on catching a freebie.

Hmmm think I could do something with Sagittarius although not having the horse hindquarters is a limitation.

Oh nice one Alex.
@LG and PS: They look to be characters from WoW.
A sexy elven Jessica Rabbit is what sprang to mind when I saw it too.

Quote:As for the costume it's good to see that you kept some things (his skin color and gloves) and I would like to see one hand wreathed in fire and the other radiating cold or ice shards.Originally Posted by Sworn_Servant
Frostfire is, indeed, one of my favorite parts of the game and now you've saved me the trouble of being surprised with the parts of his storyline that I have yet to encounter. While you're at it, is there really a Santa Claus? And what was Rosebud?
Not too sure about the boots and shoulders though... FF seems to be a jeans and t-shirt kind of guy and while his Hero suit should look different I don't picture him with any heavy armor weighing him down.
As for the spoiling I only just ran into the new FF content a week ago so thankfully this
didn't spoil anything for me but yeah you may want to put a spoiler alert Light.
@Sworn_Servant: Sorry it got spoiled for ya.
P.S. Santa Claus is fictional but based on a real person, it was his sled and if
you have a belief in the jewish zombie... well you may want to sit down first.

Oooh nice! I wasn't expecting that fast of a turn around time.
The colors are really adding the to the design here without losing too much of the pencils texture and I love what you did with her eyes, they really pop.
Think I might be able to take the piece a step further and punch up the colors/contrast and maybe redo some of the small details in color. May adjust the lips too.
EDIT:

Thanks for the comments guys, and appreciate the feedback. If i'm honest, i was dubious about my ice skin effects too. I'm hoping to do another Sub Zero Man picture soon, think i'll review my techniques for that one.
For now tho, here's a piece i've just finished of my Rad/DP Def, British Hero. This is my first all digital picture, and first use of my graphics pad, lots of firsts. Full size and alternative version (lights off) at my DA page, siggy click.
Hope you like it, cheers H.
It's on the version with the headlights off.
