  1. It's just the ball. What your copper, missile like shape is, is the shell casing. That contains the primer and powder that is ignited to launch the actual bullet or ball. I suppose if you were to try drawing it you'd probably be OK with just a speed line that is a little thicker at the leading end. I wouldn't put a bulb on the end or anything, just thicken the line slightly to give it some mass. Most bullets are fairly small, and even the larger caliber bullets are much smaller than you'd think.
  2. That looks nifty. I'd even go so far as to say it looks spiffy. I like the idea of mixing the costumes.
  3. That's...fantastic. Amazing. Super. Fabulous. Stupendous.

    Words cannot express the joy I feel in seeing the completed piece. You put so much time and effort into this and all you get out of it from us is a hearty "Thank you!" which just doesn't feel sufficient. I wish I could donate something to you, but sadly, I can't. So, I'm sorry to say that from me, at least, you'll just have to settle for Thank You, Alex!
  4. This is the one instance where Cake > Pie. But only in this instance. Pie is like Pepsi and Pirates. They are all > than their nemesis.

    Pie>Cake
    Pepsi>Coke
    Pirates>Ninjas

    But, in this case, Cake> All.

    And I'm pretty sure that's going to be Striking Speedster too. Cause he's pretty awesome all by himself. No cake necessary, though Cake was definitely provided.

    Reverse

    Yeah, I debated whether or not I really wanted to reverse her new costume. But... once I saw it... it was just too awesome to not take a pic.

    Reverse

    No, I think it's a cool idea. In fact, I just got done reversing Frosty Femme into...

    Frosty Fella!
    Frosty Fella 2

    Woohoo! Group 6! Go Group 6! Better than all the others! Yeah! Whoooo!
  9. I think it looks like an excellent start. Far better than anything I could do.

    Cropped and tweaked a bit...
    The card for Frosty Femme - no description... seems the card creator blows it up *JUST* enough to pixelate :P

    Nice. Thanks a ton. I see now what part of my problem was. I was centering the image when I cropped it instead of opening things up a bit.

    Updated Hero Card! Now with more description!
  11. Ok. I've been screwing around with it for most of the day and just getting more and more frustrated. I did get a sketch that Battlewraith did for me to fit in there pretty nicely, but I wanted a screenshot. I keep getting the feet or just a blank spot.

    This is the pic I've been trying to use:

    She's an Ice/Ice Blaster.

    VERY rough draft ready to go to PS. The figures layout is pretty dramatically different from the screenie as you can see but that's ok. I will be updating much slower this time around. Last time I really got into the spirit of things and almost obsessed over the image. I don't want to become so preoccupied with this one so I will make myself go a bit slower.

    Anyway here's the start!


    Thanks for looking and ANY comments or criticisms are more than welcome. I see several areas that need addressed here already. Most notably the toons left foot is way wrong. And, oh yeah, I WILL gripe about the hands in this pic too.

    That's not Frosty Femme.

    One of those unrecognizables (yes, I know that's not actually a word) will probably be me. But, if it helps I listed "Dano" as my nickname.
  14. I know how to crop, just not how to get specific dimensions. Nor do I know what those dimensions are suppose to be.
  15. [ QUOTE ]
    Well, if you crop it to the listed dimensions, the picture will come out centered without hassle

    I'm a photo editing n00b. How do I do that? I'm using XNView as my photo editor.
  16. Those are cool. Do you ever do any guys though? It seems all your characters are female. Which isn't a bad thing at all. I know what I prefer to look at in third person, but sometimes a concept just fits a guy better.

    Whoa! Is this what that survey was for?! I thought it was just going be some sort of... thing... Not an actual drawing

    *does the happy dance*

    [/ QUOTE ]

    No kidding. Of course, I filled it out with my personal infoz instead of my character infoz (you like the "z" in "infoz"? That means I'm l33T). So, if I need to fill it out again with Frosty's information, I'll do that.
  18. That's cool. I can't get any of my images to center, but it's pretty cool. I like the idea of having a Frosty card.

    Me are bored.

    I think that of all the people here, Alex deserves some free art loving the most. But, if you disagree with me, my links are in my signature.
  20. I'm in the same boat right now. Over the last several years all of my friends ended up moving out of state for one reason or another. I didn't worry about it much because I still had my wife and daughter, but now we're getting divorced. So, I don't have any advice for you, but I wanted to let you know that you aren't alone in this.
  21. Or, if you have Hover you can get yourself some altitude and that will allow you a little more freedom with the camera and make it easier to get a full body shot. With enough playing you can even make it look like it's dead on, instead of angled from below.

    Then you'll be happy to know I just finished coloring yours.

    Here is Frosty Femme.

    That is absolutely incredible. So far beyond anything I've ever deserved. But, it's too late! You guys can't take it back now! HAHA!

    J/K I absolutely love it. Thanks a million Alex and Turbo.

    Slaughtermouse is done. I tried my best to vary the colors up enough but the reference shot I had was almost entirely the same shade of brown all over. That's all from me tonight, might get Wuuki done tomorrow.

    That's awesome! Thanks Team SpinSki!

    She is monochromatic -- I was trying to emulate the mouse I have running around my house at the moment. I couldn't get the white belly part right with just Blend, but with the new costume parts (thanks Jay!) I'll give 'er another go.

    Thanks again, that looks great -- way better than I could've done!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Try the new Diamond Blend. That should get you what you're looking for.
