i like the musclation on the blue suit, could she continue it through the star emblem on the chest to show the pectorals? Would really define the chest. Good work both of you

Quote:Thanks very much, it's your picture tho, inspired me to try colouring.WOW Henry that looks great so far! That ice effect is pretty cool how did you manage it? Cant wait to see it finished.
As for the ice effect, i basically shone a torch at an ice cube with a piece of blue card behind it (for the sky background) and just tried to see the colours in it. It's amazing the colours you can see in things you presume are just one colour. One thing i did notice is that unlike an opaque object, which would look lighter on the face in the light and darker on the face away from the light, a transparent object is the opposite, the face directly in the light was almost black and the rear face, seen through the cube was really bright with colour... k, i'll stop
edit: wow, i've had a real struggle colouring the 'iceblast' effect, mainly i think, because i can't personally shoot ice out of my hands and shine a torch at it, lol
Quote:I've had some people asking me for commissions, not sure what to say I never thought anyone would like my little duck faced creations well enough for a commission. So any advice would be appreciated. -
Quote:Haha, yep, Dr Mousey doesn't think, 'ahh, i'm going to split up this pack of chicken pieces before i freeze it'... she thinks, 'ahh, i'm going to populate saturn with a race of my own creation...'When I look at her expression the first thing that comes to me is Doc Mousey is having a light bulb moment cept on a much bigger scale.

k, that was the humanity-less robot angle, i'm just having another idea now. More of a tragic case. Something based on my Armor Dillo guy, but with spines, Porcu-spine... hmm, maybe not
He's a mutant, but so mutatated he doesn't really fit in as a member of society anymore. It would be so easy to embrace the anger and rejection and become a villian, but his need to gain acceptance and a place in society fuels him to do good and prove himself. It's a very comic book look, and is also very closely based on Armor Dillo, so take what you like from it mate
Hope there's some ideas there, cheers H.

Heh, really chuffed that 'ole Robot H3NRi has become a figure of inspiration
If i explain the background to how he came about, it might give you some ideas maybe. When i first started playing, not so long ago, i was trying all sorts of different ATs but read more than once about how good spines/regen scrappers were. My biggest problem with this AT tho was that, although i'm not really a roleplayer, i do like my characters to be credible, and i just couldn't get my head around how to pull off a hero who's main superpower was sticking enormous spikes in people! The two just didn't gel for me, until i realised that it was 'me' it didn't gel with. I wouldn't feel very heroic sticking a 2ft spike in someone's head. So the idea came to me to make a character with no morality issues, no doubt of his power, no humanity and in the end, not human at all. He could still be a hero, because that's what he's programmed to be, it doesn't matter how it felt, Robot H3NRi has no feelings
That's how i've tried to portray him in the comic so far, he's not even a he, it's just a machine performing it's function. Worked for me, and i love the AT now, spines ftw
And i maybe do Robot H3NRi a disservice there, he's not completely devoid of personally, he told a joke once! It was in binary tho, you might not find it funny...

Quote:No, not a wacom yet. It's actually the cheapest one i could find, reasons being i don't know what i want from a pad yet as i've never used one, so i want to see how i take to it, how much use i get from it, what i need from a pad, etc. This one was only 16 quid, so it won't kill me if it becomes an electronic coffee mug coasterThat's actually a very convincing ice effect Henri.
Also gratz on getting a tablet... is it a Wacom?
Stop! Collaborate and Listen!

thanks for the comment on the ice, fairly happy with that too -
I've decided to also have a go at colouring my sketch from Lady C. Evening no.1 and i've managed 3 bits of ice and a shin pad, lol... this may take some time...
Although it has made me order a graphics pad, it's too tricky with the mouse. Will post once it's finished

Haha, 'I Judo chop your face', that was a RL LOL moment

I'm watching the Hand anyway because i think his work is incredible, but after seeing that Alpha piece, i think i just found my robot man

As someone floundering in the dark and in trying to be as concise and informative as that post was Frozen, i'll just say, 'bloody brilliant, thanks'
cheers H. -
ooh, great idea Lex. I've done a bit of comic writing too, it's great fun
Could i put forward my latest character, The Sub Zero Man. He's an earth/ice Dom (hero), but earth is coloured as ice so he's an all ice character really. Here's a ref pic, a screenie of his powers and an un-iced pic. Hope you like him and can use him

You always take the time to do people a birthday sketch, which i'm sure is appreciated in every case. I'm not really up to scratch with my sketching yet, but i thought i'd do you a little scene with the media i am working in at the moment. Cheers H

Doesn't believe a word you tell him unless he already knows it himself, lol....the name might actually be Solipsist if it's wordplay on the epistemological position that one's mind is all that can be known or verified and knowledge of anything outside of one's mind (the outside world or other minds) is impossible and may actually not exist.

Happy Birthday CR, have a great day

Amazing eyes. I'm seeing something reflected in them, like a white farm house or country lake house type of building, is that right or is it just me?

newp, it's Steel Canyon. I should think of a prize...

Hehe, well, i can tell you there's absolutely no photoshopping involved, it's a legit screenie. I'll tell you how later but i reckon someone will guess it sooner

Quote:Lol, i'm going to change that now i think. I was originally thinking the A-Team, but no, you're right, now the A-Holes is firmly stuck in my mind, haha.....
Damnit, I blame this for my instant facepalm.
Looks great...but the name will always make me smirk for the wrong reason now XD
hmm... the War-Bots... Robo-team... -
Hi Angel, soz was busy earlier, only had time to link the boots, lol.
Here's my Elec character. He's actually an Elec troller rather than Elec blaster, but thought it might give you some ideas none the less. His aura is the full body plasma aura in dark blue so it's not that visible in this screenie, but ingame looks kind of electric like. cheers H.
edit: easier to see his aura in this shot i think. Should have added too, his powers are coloured to match that as that's what you were after
