A little request

I can't pay or give anything in return until my scanner is fixed, however I'd like it if someone could draw a character art of my character Rider OO. Chances are I'll use the picture as my signature.



If you don't mind waiting, I'll be happy to return the favor with a chibi pic of your character. I'm only good at drawing chibi.

You'll need slightly better screens or a detailed description of the costume. It would also help to know the archetype and power sets. He looks like a martial artist off hand, ah never-mind I googled "tokusatsu"...

EDIT: best I could do on short notice... not bad for 76 minutes



Edit #2: send me your email, so I can send you the large version, here is an actual detail of the head...

And yes, Rider OO is a Martial Arts. He also has Willpower and Super Speed.

Ah that's cool, I get it now... I will send it to you tomorrow, sorry, on the wife's laptop now, and the file is asleep on my pc in my studio. Glad you like the drawing.

Tweaked it a bit he says...
dude fixing the heel of his left boot would be tweaking it a bit.

This is more like I took something already great and
improved almost every aspect.
Good stuff Bobby.


Sidenote: I think I prefer the eyes in the first piece...
but then it's not my hero, just tossing in my .

I don't see a diff in the eyes. It just looks a bit brighter because the armor is darker. Pretty good both ways.

Btw, I took these screenshots on my grandma's computer, which can handle the higher settings, and I think my computer is better suited for screenshots. I hate the whole shine thing but that's just me. Note: I recently joined an SG so the chest armored thing was replaced with a star.

Also, if anyone else wants to take a crack at Rider OO, I'd be happy ^_^

It was my birthday July 24th and I must say I loved LadyJudgement's 'gift'

Oh, and here is my villain if anyone wants to take a shot at him.

Note: Talkarat's Skin is suppose to be dark red

Thanks CR! As for the eyes, after showing me his inspiration, I wanted the eyes to look more like his... the first version, I thought you had chosen those pointy spike eyes from the costume creator... but I like them brighter.

As for the tweaking, the original sketch was done with a 10=40% opacity brush over white on a separate layer. So the whites of the costume are just empty over the white background. To darken it, I had to select the entire shape of the figure with the lasso tool, then fill it with a deep gray, in order for the white NOT to show through...

Hope that makes sense? I also fixed one of the feet, elongated him a little, sharpened up the edges and did a layer of painting touch ups for shiny parts. In the past I would have drawn all of this with a blue "pencil" layer, inked that to black, flatted the whole thing and THEN rendered it. I am finding this "concept art" painted look much more satisfying... also this one's giving me courage to do the Kobolt one.

And a Jackalynn vs LJ piece that is about 40% done. Baby steps...

He's actually in half helmets. The 'goggles' look the way they do because of the color.
