    It's cool to see new players interested in this SG

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Any new recruits should be aware that this coming 2xXP weekend will be full of low level Envisionary teaming.

    Not only are Kilotonnage and Lady Judgement over 48, but Alex and Cosmic are both on the last level of their first level 50s. Does anyone else here smell the baby seafood floating in?

    And it has been edited, look at the link I posted earlier today. ^

    Great work Crestent. I'm sure it is difficult to place that many characters into one scene - your composition really complements them all.

    Do you mind if I crop my character out for my avatar?

    Well I've decided to do a group project staring 10 of our envisionaries! So far all I have is kilo down but i plan to add LJ, Syrus, Crestent, Alex, Cosmic(who i need screenshots from), Grave Enigma, Spino, Larissa, and Frosty.
    I should be able to post the WIP later tonight or tomorrow.

    What a coincedence...

    I also started a group sketch of the Envisionaries today. Not on a grand a scale as you Crest. I am only adding our nightly SG group: Me, you, LJ, Alex, Grave Enigma, Cosmic Firefly (Need those screenies also) and Syrus B. I don't post work in progresses but its almost half done with Kilo, Grave and Alex complete and LJ halfway done.

    Can't wait to see yours Crest!!

    Baaaahhhh, I forgot to check these out last night... now I need to leave work early to see them. Thanks for including Grave Enigma with the cool kids

    You're leveling like you were shot out of a cannon Cosmic; it's hard to believe this is your first look at 50

    Yummy looking! I mean...um...*wipes drool* Great perspective and stuff! >.>

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You asked for a buff, chiseled, sweaty, hunk of man for my next illustration. It's good to know Kilo is everything you hoped for His abs got an overhaul in today's update- I hope they meet your approval.

    You'll have to control that drooling before I put the inks on... he's not waterproof.

    I'm digging the angle on this sketch. It's still really rough but it already looks very dynamic and conveys a sense of strength. Very nice work.

    I'll be following this thread.

    Thanks Attache,

    I've read 'How to Draw the Marvel Way' as I've approached each drawing. They really harp on picking interesting angles. It takes some time to place the elements together, but there is far less down-time trying to fill up the scene while in progress. I know I posted it in very rough form, but when a painting is shaping up it's hard to wait on posting it.

    Thanks for following Kilo's progress.

    Oooooooooo this is gonna be so sweet! What a great pose and perspective. I love he mid-footstomp!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm glad he's meeting your expectations Kilo. You have a fun character to draw. The shot is actually right after the Footstomp landed, and he's going into a Knockout Blow - my swing still needs a little work .

    I'm planning to do commissions soon, and have been working on projects to illustrate my range of services. Kilotonnage was kind enough to offer his likeness for my second design....

    Sketch in Progress

    Every lunch hour I'll work on this further, and update the link with daily progress. Once inks, then colors are started I'll post new links in this thread for each.

    Constructive criticism is encouraged - this style is fairly new to me.

    Please post your Deviant links here (deviants only please).

  12. She looks great! I like the liberties he took with her jewelry.
  13. I took a six month break last year cuz every hero needs a vacation now and then . We'll try to keep all the villainy to a minimum while you're out of town, lol.

    Hope to see you back.
  14. I often kick myself for not getting dozens of Poser 5 & Bryce 5 licenses when they ran that Free promotion. I've checked the links and both deals are dead now.

    I opened Bryce a few times, but never spent time with it. This weekend I'll throw my Kilotonnage model into Bryce and let you know the results.

    The Heroic Kilotonnage hit level 40 on Liberty with the help of my fellow Envisionaries. After playing in Icon with costume ideas I finally decided to take advantage of the vett reward trenchcoat as part of my look. I like it so much I decided to sketch it.

    Black & White

    Colors

    The funny part is all my SG mates could concentrate on was not the new look but the fact that Kilo is bald. No one realized that because of his main costumes hood.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Nice work on the black and white (somehow it isn't getting blocked at work). His expression goes well with the drama of the dark costume.

    Yea, who woulda though you weren't hiding bed-head or a bad haircut under the hood? The shiny melon looks good on you though.

    It's hard to argue with a Superstrength Troll hopped up on the 'dyne. With four of Paragon's most influential ladies clamoring for a bare-chested, sweaty, buff stud, how could I not try to appease them? Kilo Buff Tonnage certainly fits the bill Quote from Scarf, Star, Ransim & Larissa:

    WOOHOO!!! Its a true honor to be selected, I can't thank you enough Grave. You made my holiday weekend, I will be thinking of you when I am raving!!!!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You're welcome. Kilo has a very intriguing theme and will be fun to render. I'll try to log on this weekend for a couple screenshots.

    Now, um, has anyone seen a bit of jiggly grayish flesh running around? Seriously, i have to find that damned mind of mine... slippery [censored]...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm sure I saw that on the floor in several of your paintings... check the last one you finished.

    Can't wait to get home to check out this WIP - thanks for sharing it.

    I love the animated gif, always found seeing the progress people make on artwork to be interesting, given I can't draw to save my life.

    I like the shading on her hand and the power aura around it. Very nice ^_^

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm glad you found the movie worth your time. You're the first to mention any of the three I've posted, so I've wondered if they were getting any play. Since some have :+fav: on my work-in-progress scraps, it seemed appropriate to condense my daily progress shots to replace the near-finished WIP.

    Yea, the Rad Blast was fun to render in color. I picked Radey Ayte for the cool look of her powers, so doing a close-up was a must - even though it left Fluffy out of the shot.

    I love it.
    It´s a really great piece and I am really looking foreward to see more of your work

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Thank you Piepgrass. Now that I've worked out my technique you shouldn't have to wait as long to see more Don't count on more three-eyed peeps for awhile though; my three year old got all angry with me every time she noticed me working on it. Creepy she said

    Nuclear Impulse

    My color illustration of Radey Ayte is done: Nuclear Impulse

    If you care to view the animated evolution of the work-in-progress it's in my DA scraps. She's a 4MB GIF, so be patient.

    Thanks Starchasm for lending Radey for my trial run. The second of three freebee illustrations will be selected late tomorrow. Interested heroes please post your screenies HERE if you haven't already.
  22. With Nuclear Impulse done, it's time to pick my second victim...

    Since this project is for building my commission page, I expect to choose a buff male character for my next selection.

    Anyone interested in free art is still welcome to post screenies in this thread, and I'll make my selection from everyone in this thread when I get home from work tomorrow night. Please follow the guidelines of my original post.

    Thanks heroes, for all your help.
  23. I'll send up a prayer for ya Gill. Now get well fast so we can see more of your awesome skills!
