Character: Armour N


#1

Hi there, my second post in here and maybe the first more serious…
This is some sort of an experiment, done in my free time, just free compilation of ideas, and previous character concepts, there’s no particular idea behid it, just for fun and exersize…
…made in Photoshop plus graphire2 tablet, this is 60% of the actual working size…
…and not much more to say, now’s your turn for some serious c&c on this one…

Hi calader, I’m real honored to reply on this frontpage to be art, this … wow… good job! :bowdown:

Excellent colour use it seems, background sorta looked like a forrest on first glance, and later thought… and then argh :slight_smile: wierd thing is it really didn’t bottered me at 1st sight, and thought (think) it suits perfect, when I took a good look at it I only then saw how undetailed it was and thought hmz might could’ve used bit more work, but that was just a real dumn obvious thought, since I filled in the background perfectly with my imagination at 1st sight, so very good job :slight_smile:

only minor crits bout char, hand is bit too small but didn’t bother’d me. Never thought I would say this) but sorta like how the face could just as well be a girl or a man. I do feel like you were a bit scared of messing things up (like on paper :slight_smile: in the face, and think the ontrasts there could’ve been bit more obvious.

Overall, very well done, plz entertain me more

Very good work. the only thing that’s disturbing me in this great picture are the balck lines on his neck and throat and that his neck is quite long.
nice textures and cool gun there :smiley:
keep up the reat work.

i like the gun. but as a silouette, i think it could be better. her hair comes out from behind her face like a beard. could have been planned better.


#5

There is really good thing in the 2scd part of the picture.

All the details behind the gun.
But I have the same comments like OrcOYoyo for the neck.


#6

hey!
i really like the details on the armor. well done, the weopon and the other metall parts looks awesome, too maybe the face could be worked out more. and the background, too.

and for the others: i think its a girl cause the character got boobs :slight_smile:

nice job! :thumbsup:

hey, thanks alot for the coments, realy helped alot…

first of all it’s a girl, like r3studios noted :)…

… and bobert you’re absolutely right about the gun, and it was a silouette at first, with almost no detail in it, but I just couldn’t resist this nice big rifle, I just love drawing all sorts of weaponry…

here’s un update, I tried to fix some major problems, like the neck and tried to do somthing with the hair/chin problem…

as for the background, I think I’ll leave it like that…

thanks again for the feedback, next time I’ll try something with more dinamic in it, this one’s a bit stiff…

It’s really a nice job,I like it,do you have more to show us?Thx


#9

thats a really nice design job, and the colors go very well with the details :D, great job
my problems with it are:
her face skin seems kinda… stretched maybe? As if she had plastic surgery almost (which may or may ot be a bad thing, its just something I noticed)
The hair seems flat to me for some reason, its probably because of the coloring… like it doesnt make it too believable specially with how the rest of the picture is.
The neck itself looks odd, It needs some detail added in my opinion (not like, an adams apple or anything, but maybe some indications of muscles)
And last one, the face doesnt really seem to belonmg to that body, as if a different approach to drawing it took place, and then the body was drawn differently, then put together…once again, probably because of the coloring (which I still love btw, its just that maybe the one flaw it has is thatI dont see it being as consistant as I wish it would be)
But yeah, this is all nitpicking, great stuff

niiiiiice effects :bowdown: :thumbsup:

Nice choice of colors.

Hi, I really like the picture. And the update is very nice. The detail on the gun is awesome, as well as the armor. The hand has been edited nicely.

However the head still looks a little flat to me. It looks much better, but a little like it goes to a certain point and then goes straight across to the end of her head.

I have a bit of a problem with the neck, it looks a little long. But some people do seem to have longer necks then most.

Other then that it looks great. No, it looks awesome. The colouring and the texture is beautiful. Thank you for sharing such a picture.

here’s a little update on the head, I added some more color variation, some more contrast here and there, covered the neck a bit more, I think that’s better, thanks again for the advises and I promise I won’t touch it anymore, and bore you to death with the same pic with those little ubdates, I’m now realy moving to the next one ;)…

…the hair stil sucks, nex time’ll try somethin diferent(the “stripe” idea wasnt so good)…


#14

very nice job! i love the armor texture and the character design is very cool!


#15

The head still looks a little flat, but maybe that’s just me. However it does look nicely defined now. And I can’t wait to see your next picture.

Yeah that’s an intresting work

nothing really to say coz your work is almoust perfect, but i think you should work a little bit more on the face. Maybe it’ll look better if you make the face a little less reddish, coz right now it looks a little strange. Nothing really serious but i think it’ll do the job

anyway i dig your work. Good concept and good work on the painting part

congrats :thumbsup:

btw i’m looking forward for your next works

I think it’s perfect and i don’t think that “The head still looks a little flat”. :slight_smile:

1 crit from your big fan:
The gun can’t have the detail like that. Look how you draw the right arm. It’s a black silhouette and the gun must be in the same way, of course with some little details. Although, this is not so important.
:)))

GREAT WORK :applause:
