This is a quick concept for a minister from a fighting game that exists in my mind where representatives of every religion battle to the death. This is a quick sketch to show one of the characters. I'd like to improve on this one, please tell me how.

I'll be adding more as I finish them.

Haha, that's a funny game concept. The character is cool too, I like his weapon :) Aren't there like hundreds of religions though? Or would you only represent the big ones?

Heh. thanks. Yeah, I'm only doing the big ones. First off will be the big three that are always at each other's throats: Judism, Islam, and Christianity. also Christianity will be split up: I.E. Catholicism and Baptist. There'll also be such religions as Hinduism and buddhism. The characters will be very stereotypical and fanatical (Yes, Islam will be a suicide bomber)It's all still just an idea though.

Here's a line art I decided to throw in here for the hell of it. I'm working on coloring it right now.

Hey, interesting game concept. A little bit politically incorrect, perhaps, but at the same time quite a social comment. I like the big hands, that character looks pretty cool

btw, is the second character part of the same concept? I want to join that religion.

yeh, cool idea bro - finally, there will be a definitive answer to the question that has plagued society for years : "which religion kicks the most arse?" my moneys on buddhism!

if you want to improve your characters, i reckon the best place to start is to ask, 'what are the characters special abilities?' that'll give you ideas on what details to develop for each character... at the moment your Christian Priest just wears a typical habit. Maybe you can develop that a bit further so it represents his personality or his fighting style some more.

can't wait to see the game!

Here's a rabbi as promised. I won't be able to give updates for a while. I'll be in the land far away from scanners and wacom tablets known as basic training.

Politically incorrect but who cares.A very novel idea just as long u r doing 4 the fun of it. :)

cool character designs I must say and with your own style. Nice! hoping to see more!

Yeah. It's mostly a novel idea and just for fun than anything else. If I knew flash, I'd prob make a little free game out of it, but I don't so I wont.

And now, representing the Catholic Church, here's Pope John Paul Using the Divine Retribution fighting style, Hoping to retain his title as premeir religion for the entire world!!
(I kinda ****ed up his grip on the cross, I might still fix that)

Awesome. I would definately buy this game.

Some suggestions for the Rabbi: Where are the little curly locks of hair in front of his ears? That would be sweet.
And *ahem* I would definately suggest getting rid of the blood on his crotch, that could really be taken the wrong way. :surprised:

:rolleyes: whoops. yeah it could. I did give him his little locks, they're just not standing out. I should fix that.
