some crappy RPG pencil drawings.

_some crappy RPG penicil drawings?_:eek:
one word ,WOW

[TMortan]

I've seen worst.

[Kirt]

itchi :: crap drawings
Bill Clinton :: monogamous relationships

These are ... are ... OMG I can't form words cause my jaw fell off and got lost under my chair somewhere with a mish-mash of Cheetos and popcorn crumbs.

If there are problems with these then the only thing I found was the arrows were penetrating the last girl's sphere of protection further in than the one broken arrow in the left foreground.

Someone coloring these? They look awesome!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[Najd]

Huh, kickaaaasssss ! :buttrock:

crapy he said... wu

[Titan]

Itchi..i cant tell you how much I love your style and the dynamic posing you get, from one comic artist to another, youre stuff is really inspirational........
the only thing that really sticks out to me, and it isnt really that big a deal, is that youre faces tend to look very similar, but I attribute that to youre style, it works great...
I would love to see more!!

[MayaA-W]

Excellent Pencilwork.. If I were you I would show my artwork to some comic companies. They might take interest

[Kirt]

Uh ... I hate to point out the obvious MayaA-W, but itchi has worked for the likes of Darkhorse, Marvel, Image, Wildstorm and Awesome Entertainment (so says his website). :shrug:

[itchi]

wow thanks for the kind words everyone ^^ i wasnt too confident in posting cause they are pretty standard shots and the background in the first is so cheated its ridiculous. and now come to think of it.... my "good stuff" isnt much better :shrug:

kirt> haha wow that is some compliment! and you got a messy place :p thanks very much! the drawing for for a spell called "stone skin" which is suppose to make the persons skin almost invulnerable so thus the breaking weapons on her skin and such. not that you would know since i didnt write anything about it :( sorry i suck...... but you gave me an idea to maybe write something underneath the pics for explainations and such. thanks kirt!

titan> woohoo thanks! awsome to see another comic artist here! well ex in my case.... what are you working on nowadays? yeah i kinda went with the generic on the guys faces due to time considerations which i am kicking my ass over now. need to work on varying my faces. good call!

mayaA-w> haha thanks for vote of confidence and, what kirt said :p

thanks again for the responses everyone!

[Kirt]

My place really isn't that messy ... but the sentiment is still true. I love your illustrations, even if you think the backgrounds are cheated. I think the strength in most of your illustrations are the strong character poses and excellent sense of weight in the characters.

RE: the stone skin spell ... I suppose the foreground object is a spear then? If it's an arrow, it's breaking before it makes contact. If it's a spear, then I would say it's not different enough from the arrows to determine the difference.

That's all a minor issue really. It's still a fantanstic drawing! The "clench" in her buttocks is a convincing drool inducer. :drool: But hey, I've always been an "ass man". heheheh.

[Kamui]

wowee!! so niiice
mr. sam liu, i love how you draw males.. the guys in the first pic.. they look so solid.. however, their faces are so similar.. they look like twins! maybe that was the intention :) in any case, i'm sure you know this, but your anatomy and detail is excellent.

your site is bookmarked in my favorites, and i often check in from time to time for new pics and inspiration!

[akewt]

hah! only just noticed the fit chick hanging from the beam! nice.

ITCHI, your work is very inspiring. can i ask if you do/have done a lot of life drawing classes. i used to do it at college and wasnt bad but really want to get into concept design but my figure and pose work aint that great. basically i want a full life story on how you became such a good artist and the steps you took so i can retrace them exactly.... only joking, i'll take my own steps.

heres my first post [need the hits]....

http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=25527

edit: sorry this was a question for itchi.

[Werner]

damn itchi, it's amazing! show us more man!

[Gamoron]

My heart bleeds for you. Boo hoo crappy drawings. :shame: Cheats people into coming here. They look great, the style is common but they are very well handled.

[dmcgrath]

YEAH! REALLY CRAPPY WORK! YOU ARE HORRIBLE!














So... wheres your good stuff???

[art7sayan]

...hum... I don't know why but I like a lot when you do crappy sketches like that... :hmm:

lol...too good...can't wait to see the rest!!

c you later!

[jeroentje]

I would love to do a coloring of those three ninja's.
If you don't mind, could you post a link to a higher res. version?

[sen'nyu]

it's more than awesome !
i've seen all your works but can't find words to describe it
shapes are so pur and characters so stylized and emotional..
immense respect

[pregnant embryo]

TITAN: Itchi..i cant tell you how much I love your style and the dynamic posing you get, from one comic artist to another, youre stuff is really inspirational........

Couldn't have said it better. 'Ninja_exalted' inspired a quick ink job on the figures. Sorry I couldn't resist. :shame:

Thanks for the fun! :applause:

[itchi]

sorry for the late response. have been gone the last 3 days oktoberfesting ^^

kirt> thanks very much for the response. yeah cheated the spear too :( looks like a big arrow haha. dang you and your eye! very good call.

kamui> haha thanks for the kind words. yeah the faces are too similar. there were a number of cheats in this batch which made me not so happy about the work. need to pay more attention to things next time. thanks for the response! ^^

akewt> ummm are you asking me or trailerpark? ^^ i took a ton of life drawing. i sucked prettty bad when i was in highschool but noone told me so i kept drawing. eventually after a lot of drawing and practice you get better. i mean it's actually pretty scientific in nature. it's the design part thats tough for me. thats where the creativity comes in. but that can also be developed or as some people do, just plain ripped :p you just got to actively go for it!

werner> het man! how you been ^^ i'll try to scan up the rest of the pics this week after work.

gamoron> yeah i got the american/anime hybrid style. dont want to get into a style and originality debate since it is so subjective in the firsdt place but, it is ever changing as i learn more ^^

dmc> i dont got any good stuff ;_; i only meant that this was kind of rushed and i was aware that there is cheating going on in these pics ^^ sorry if it came off as a sympathy ploy....

artSayan> hey how you been?! haha thanks, cant wait to see more of your stuff too. hopefully later this week i'll get the rest scanned and thumbnailed....

jeroentje> wow that would be awesome! shoot i got to rescan it cause i accidently saved it after i resized it. let me check my work computer to see if i got a bigger scan saved. i'll PM you the url once i get it loaded. woohoo cant wait!

sen'nyu> wow that is a huge compliment! you are way too kind! thanks you very much!!

pregoEmbryo> haha pretty nice. thins and thicks are a bit random. maybe a little more finess would make it look more polished.

thanks again everyone!

[Wi_2]

If that's crappy....
then I am a sheep.. behe


:shrug:

[Mamimi]

NO! IS-NOT-CRAPPY!!!
You got serious skills...:bowdown: :bowdown:

[hanzo]

itchi: that stuff is apsolute garbage, na just joking..
Man such a low spirit, that stuff you got's excellent..

Mamimi do you have an online gallery? just curious.

[slime]

Oh my god. :bowdown:

Of course this is not crappy work at all!! It's fantastic. The expressions and dynamism are supberb..
Just went to your page and your work is *incredible*:drool: what style...!
Keep bringing your works!! :buttrock:

Regards!

Daniel

[Teyon]

Always love your stuff...the only thing that stands out to me (and it's all Marvels fault) is that the monk reminds me of Proffessor X. Maybe some tattoos on the neck/forehead or something? :thumbsup:

[itchi]

thanks very much everyone! you guys are too kind ^^ sorry for the bump, but instead of starting a new thread i figure i would just continue this one....after all it is an update ^^ okay getting to the point. i finally scanned and updated the page. 6 more pics woohoo! okay that is for the exalted stuff :p

6 more Exalted pics finally (http://www.itchstudios.com/itch/illo_exalted.html)

[Titan]

beautiful work man..I love the first one the best, the guy holding the hammer......excellent!!

maybe you already mentioned it, but what are they for?

[Matches14]

simply amazing

[Kirt]

More more more !!! These are fantastic. I like the sorceress, guy with hammer, archer, oh heck ... I LOVE THEM ALL! I'd love to color the sorceress too ... if you don't mind. Do you have a high rez that I can download?

[dmcgrath]

dmc> i dont got any good stuff ;_; i only meant that this was kind of rushed and i was aware that there is cheating going on in these pics ^^ sorry if it came off as a sympathy ploy....

Dont worry itchi, I took it for a joke. Your thread title made me have to come take a look, and Im happy I did.


BTW the new stuff... It's fantastic as well. Keep it up.


:thumbsup:

[cerreto_hiding]

[jeroentje]

He Itchi, I'm waiting for that hires...

[itchi]

thanks again for the VERY nice replies guys^^ i feel a little better about the newer stuff.

titan> they are for this role playing game....not on computer but the book and paper kind like dungeons and dragons. what are those called now by the way? cause whenever i say RPG i think people assume its the computer kind....

matches>thanks very kindly ^^

kirt> woohoo cool! which ones would you want me to upload the hi res of?

dmc> hehe okay just wanted to make sure :p thanks very much man!

cerreto> haha where have you been?! ...hidding i assume :p dang i thought you had gone missing offline. shoot keep forgetting to do up a character. i am dying to see a pic of mine done up in 3d!!!

[Titan]

hey itchi, hope you dont mind, I might try a color of this sketch as well;)

[jeroentje]

Itch it's perfect. Thanks.
I'll give it a shot when I can find the time (prob somewhere next week).

[PsychedelicMind]

its not crappy! its not crappy! its not crappy! its not crappy! I love the ninja one u did! It looks so... colorable! Ne... impressive stuff! >takes the pictures and studies it futhur...< hehe...

[ReinS]

I suddenly fell in love with Sam Liu :D

great artwork dude :D

crappy?!?! :applause: :drool: :drool: excellence in its purest form :)

[Indolent]

Oh, yeah... they're crappy when we realize how bad they make our own artwork look, in comparison.... Yeah, really crappy. :scream:

[Teyon]

I think they're still called RPG's. At least I still call them that. My only prob with the new batch of stuff is Arianna Exalted's legs...what's up with those twists, it's not like you to screw up anatomy like that. I assume it's on purpose. Is she some kind of spirit returned from the dead or something?

[TheBaron]

Your drawings are excellent, one day, just one day I will be that good :) (I hope)

I just couldn't contain myself, I used two of your drawings to colour, it's great practice for me on my tablet.
I hope I've done them justice.

:thumbsup: POWER TO THE MAX!!

[facial]

itchi, YOUR WORK IS REALLY GREAT. LOVE THEM. :beer:

[Michael Chen]

what do U define as crap?

The artworks are amazing. If that was crap then .. I don't know what crap means any more.

[jeroentje]

I'm colouring :bounce: I'm colouring :bounce:

[Kirt]

Me too :bounce: Me too :bounce:

[jeroentje]

You are? Damn.... and you are also entering 2 of the challenges, including a traditional animation!
Are you a siamese twin with 2 heads and 4 arms by any chance?

[Kirt]

You should talk :p Maybe I should remind you of the Above and Beyond Challenge (http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=16665), this pixel pusher thing (http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23927), and these speed paints (http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18932) that you did. If I have 4 arms, you have 8. :D

[jeroentje]

So here is my colored version of Itchi's "crappy sketch".
Crappy. Yeah, right...

I tried to follow the feeling of the lines in the sketch when I inked it as much as possible (hadn't inked a thing in years but I thought it was the style that would go best with this) cause it had such a nice touch and I didn't wanna ruin that.

Coloring someone elses sketch gave me a very weird feeling, almost like having sex with someone elses wife :D
Anyway, I've read/been told that's how it's usually done with Amercain comics, in big studios. Never really read any Marvel or stuff like that. Only the 70's Spiderman comics to be honest. I grew up with the European comics (like Tintin).

Hope that you like it.
And thanks for the sketch Sam, learned a lot and it was fun :)

That turned out nice jeroentje! :buttrock:
I have to restart mine ... I made a conflicting light source. :argh:

[jeroentje]

Thanks man :)
And nooo don't start again! Much more interesting to see 2 totally different interpretations.

[dmcgrath]

Very cool Jerontje! I love the light source coming off the scroll. It gives the picture a lot of depth.

:cheers:

[Kamui]

great mood and atmostphere jerojente! :thumbsup:

i especially like the smokey effect you have coming out of the archway

[Pancreas]

Great colors jeroentje! Really dig the dark and cold atmosphere :thumbsup:
I love the glowing scroll and the marble effect of the walls.
By that weird feeling you mean while colouring it you jumped out the window each time someone said "my husband!!"

[Kirt]

And I have to restart it because I put shadow on the left side of her face to match the shadow under the chin, but wanted to make a magical myst coming up from the book. Didn't match up ... so I have to make the shadow on the other side of her face and remove itchi's under the chin shadow (hope you don't mind itchi). :shrug:

[Kirt]

I didn't have a background sketch to work with on mine ... so sorry about this one. Maybe I'll go back and paint one later, but I need to start on my challenges for this month. :argh:

I really enjoyed coloring this itchi. Maybe I can do another later?

[fireman]

dear jeroentje :bowdown:

dear Kirt :bowdown:

dear itch :bowdown:

[PsychedelicMind]

oooooo yeeesh... What Fireman said! :xtreme: you guys rock!

[art7sayan]

I think you can be proud of your crappy sketches! :D


Hi-rez version

[Cgkoko]

....can i have a try too maybe?


........:hmm:

[Neil]

We all know, and YOU know that they aren't crappy drawings. Usually people post titles like that to get people to take a look out of curiosity. I would expect better from you man!

[Nevermore]

*scratches head...*

*blinks*

*scratches head again*

*checks to see if he didn't accidentally click on another thread*

*scratches head.. (must be the damn itch)*

*breaks up pencils, almost throws mouse out the window...*



very.. VERY good work all.. Itchy I enjoyed all your beautiful work so far (http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=21726, for example), as well as the phat-ass coloring done by all the above (my special compliments to jeroentje and kirt :))..



...I really gotta go get me a Wacom...

[Sangotten]

Great coolor jobs dudes...
@ Baron, please get rid of the blue background, it hurst's my eyes the colouring could do with more depth.... just my two cent's :beer:

Hmmm I promised Itchi that I would do one too....

So here's mine.... took me 3 hours and is a bit big in size.
I was really sloppy this time and didn't took time for details.... to much is going on, I think I'm gonna do this one over......

gotta learn gotta learn.

This is just a stellar thread.

[Kirt]

Hey itchi! I want to do this one (http://www.itchstudios.com/itch/illo_exalted5.html) too. Can you upload a hi-res and PM me the link? Thanks!

[WhiteBlaizer]

kinda nice drawings, i like particulary the illo_exalted9.htm page. Excellent perspective and compositing. Give that pic color, it would be fantastinc.

Nice work man.

question: what kind of material (pencils) u have use for tint your drawings? or u simply have maked the scanned images into more contrast...?

[floatingrunner]

cool, reminds me of them war of genesis stuff...

Kirt, relax my friend... 2 challenges, coloring 2 of Itchis sketches... a job, a wife & 3 kids... are you using speed or something? :surprised :D

[Kirt]

Oh, I didn't mean I'd do it right away. Just that I want to do it sometime in the future. These are such great drawings, I'm inspired to do more. I actually have another co-op I've been working on for sometime (one of hawkprey's images). So, yeah ... I'm a work-a-holic. :D
