Character 2D: Art Robot

[OBT]

great, he (and definatly you) got style. :wip:
i really like it, but nowadays there are too many 3D robots, i prefer the drawn ones.

OBT: in a way you are wright. But it is one thing to make them and another thing to animate...

P.s. Maybe someone could give a suggestion of a background for this guy?

Wicked piece. He looks like one of the old artist droids at 2000AD comics. :eek:

Sorry I can't think of any ideas for a background though. :hmm:

I really dig the robot design :D

[alexcyh]

cool...very nice character.:applause:

[Aelius]

The robot's great - looks really friendly and jolly. He looks really proud of whatever he's just drawn!! :thumbsup:

Not sure about ashecorbin's background though. Doesn't really do anything for the character. I kind of imagined him walking away from a sketch he'd done, maybe a futuristic re-hash of an old master like a robotic Mona Lisa or something.

I like the way you've mixed futuristic iconography with traditional style, and the fact that he's holding a mouse and a pencil - a marriage of old and new techniques.

Cool.

[wahahaha]

cool man!! keep it up!! hope 2 c more of ur work soon!!:beer:

[ExanJU]

Hi again.. ang thanx for replies guys!!

Aelius: your' right about background.. But this guys hasn't completed anything yet. He's like searching for perfect form or color. I think I'll even try to draw somthing like that for the background... Somthing a little dark, but not too creepy.. What do you think?

ashecorbin: Your suggestion is quiet interesting. But I think its a little too bright. In the original I hardly got some depth... That light flattens image even more. Besides I Want to try to search for somthing more real.. I meen not so abstract.. ^^

But still one more time thanx for comments!! They gave me some ideas good ideas.. I think ^^

Regards,
ExanJU

Sounds good, ExanJU. Now I look at him more, I can see how a dark background could completely change the meaning of his strut. The lack of facial expression leaves him open to interpretation, so a dark (emotionally) background could well turn that happy lilt into a frustrated stride!!! Maybe a backdrop of dozens of bad sketches with angry crosses through them!!?

Keep us posted, ExanJU. I'd like to see this one when it's done!!:applause:

[ExanJU]

I sure will... But this is a "gallery/finished work" thread, can't experiment too mutch :rolleyes: ... So I'll post da final thing :thumbsup:

[ExanJU]

Eye guess nobody likes my changes? aint it so? :shrug: :thumbsdow

At least please tell me what is wrong with it :blush:

Sorry I didn't realise you had updated the top post.

Looks really good, the new background, he fits in well to the surroundings.

I can't find any crits at all, top work. Roll on with the 3D version.
