Nope just in time I am trying to figure out what to do for my last 10 and there are still a few openings yet.

Hey I remember these heroes. I was a fan of HD back when NCSoft had that big costume contest that bombed... I was one of the people who helped to turn the thread around into something positive after it went all south in a hurry lol.

Your post count doesn't seem to have changed much since then haha... have you been away or just on perma-lurk mode since then?

P.S. Hey HD has a different face now (and different cape etc as well)... or am I imagining that?

I wonder if bribes of bacon, bewbies and brownies would help in the decision making process...

Hahaha we'll see.
Not all great things go well together (bacon brownies???) but I'm pretty sure bewbiez go with everything.
Too bad they cannot be posted to the public forums here... umm... now accepting PM bribes!

@Kheldarn: Didn't you already promise your entire bewbiez, bacon and interwebz fortune to meh after I posted Ember???
...you probably don't even want to see what I just posted a few minutes ago then.

yep, been gone from the game for a while, came back to see how things are and to get ready for GR
and yes, I changed her face and cape, also added more color to her (as in black and gold). she's on Virtue now if you ever want to drop me a line. I also have a widow version of her too

Ummm, I know who I want to see for that. Alas, it's a selfish dream. Arctracer and Metadelicon have changed since I posted the refs waaaay back, too.

But good luck on the final stretch, CR!

There's always a first for everything. After all there's a donut shop locally that makes bacon maple bars.

If they ever start making bacon brownies shaped like bewbiez I'm moving to make that shop local to me too.

By changed are you talking about Blue is now the dominant color on Arctracer rather than Yellow? Your gallery on PB says it's locked
so I could only get it to show me a few pics.

Thankyou Red.

Yeah, I unlocked it just after reading that, but there isn't anything new.

The main thing is that Arc's actually lost the helmet and I haven't capped that yet. And Meta is using Bio-Organic for his chest, arms, and legs rather than Stone.

Probably other little things, too, but I can't remeber ATM. I'm just about to go to work this morning.

#32 of 40 is Arc Tracer who belongs to Quarrios Soul.
Somewhere along the way I decided I would draw something for anyone that posts on a hundred in my New Artz thread. Mostly so far it's been me though hahaha.
However Caemgen was #200 and so I'm doing his Fenian and Quarrios was #400 and so here ya go QS, enjoy.

#33 of 40 is a redesigned Pachamama. This is something of a first for me as I combined a drawing (head and hair) portion with a part created entirely in photoshop (torso)... the two parts aren't fitting together perfectly at the moment but I think the technique has merit I just need to practice it more. It was worth the time spent I think. Enjoy the version 2 Jophiel.

Enjoy!
Thanks for the awesome character art and for the plug

I can sure take some tips from your style on things like proper proportion, posting, and, you know, actual skill and stuff

Believe me, this is dead on. I did that for the very first time myself in my most recent comic (#25). It's not easy especially when you're a hack like me and not a real artist

CR, let me know if it's ok if I post your pic on my home page as my very first fan art!

Also, in PM you told me to let you know if I had any suggestions and that you're kinda new to the Anime-ish style. I don't really consider myself an expert on anything at all, but I redrew the faces a little to give you an idea of how I'd have done it.



The eyes will be a bit lower and generally aren't as slanted. I also rounded out Shazel's face since girls aren't usually quite so chisled

Again, just my take.

And you fixed the pucker lips I accidentally gave Garuk too.

I should probably sign it first and PM you the full size scan,
but by all means go ahead and post it in your gallery as fan art, I'd be honored.

I also mentioned if you feel up for collaborating you can go ahead and apply your
coloring style to is as well. I'd love to see how it would look finished.



P.S. Yeah, uh hunh... you've drawn your own avatar, you've written, drawn and colored a 25 page web comic...
I can totally see why you'd say your not a "real artist"... sheesh what a hack.

Well not real in the sense that I have no idea what I'm doing. I have a general sense of what it should look like and granted I get better over time (look back at comics 1-3 sheesh), but my approach is like brute force. I have no classes, no books, I'm just hoping to learn little by little by doing it. My only training is the comic itself

I'll think about coloring the artwork, I'm interested in seeing it too, though who can say how soon I'll get to that. If there's anything amazing about me, it's only that I've managed as much as I have with as little time as I have (wife/4kids/job/sidejob/webdesign/actual PLAYING the game now and then).

Looks like he's 7 sketches away from completing the goal... (though it doesn't look like he'll do it on time *shrug*) so it couldn't hurt to read his sign, go to his other thread, and post the references. He may finish the 40 even after the deadline... And I certainly don't expect him to stop drawing altogether after the 1st... So worst case, you post some references that get ignored. Best case, you eventually get free arts. *shrug*
