Rachel Finley is entered in the “Secret Agent” update: View Challenge Page

Latest Update: Final Image: Cat Burglars

#2

This is the first challenge I’ve participated in. I’m fairly new to this site and am just getting the feel of things.
Some character sketches I’ve done to help me get into the “secret agent” mode. I’ll most likely not be using these characters, but I figured I should show them either way.

#3

Some more character sketches. I was working out my villains here. I like the woman, but the man doesn’t seem right to me.

#4

The earlier characters don’t quite feel right to me so I’m doing some more sketches of an animal cast. I like these guys a lot more.

#5

Some references for inspiration. I’ve decided that my agent should be a fox, but I’ve never drawn one before this.

#6

The characters are becoming more clear. Now I just have to do the villains and I’m onto the image layout.

#7

Good sketches and nice point of view of the challenge. You have a very characteristic style. Good luck!

#8

Thank you! I’m pretty new to this and it’s intimidating doing things differently than everyone else, but I can never stand to follow the bandwagon. Perhaps that’s why I never do well in these things. ^^;

#9

Don’t be so hard with your self haha, it is very important have your own style. What you can do best is be different :wink:

#10

Great characters, I really like the look of the two together.
Just a side note how about you change his name to Fo10 (Roman number 10 =X)…just a thought.

great stuff

#11

Thanks. :slight_smile:
I had it 24 because x is the 24th letter in the alphabet, but I think that FO10 sounds better. I’ll probably change it.

Ah…I completely missed that :stuck_out_tongue:

#13

Working out the villains now.
On the right we have Ratkin and on the left we have his evil genius boss…who is yet to be named. I probably have the most story laid into this rabbit baddy.

He used to work with FO24 and there was some horrible accident in which he lost sight in his eye and the greater part of his left ear. He left the agency, blaming his former partner for his injuries. Since then he has genetically altered himself and other evil rodent like creatures, Ratkin among them.

Anyways, if anyone has any suggestion as to what his name could be I’d love to hear them. I was thinking something to do with rabbits, bunnies, and logo/logomorghs. (rabbits aren’t actually rodents, but are logomorphs instead).

#14

I’m really diggin the villains in this :smiley:

#15

What if the main bad guy was the ex partner to fo24? ala goldeneye?

#16

He is his ex partner. :slight_smile:
Was goldeneye a bond movie? The last spy movie I saw was the one with Miss Pussy. ^^; I’m a bit behind on my tv watching. I thought that I should watch some for inspiration for the challenge, but I think I’m going a long fine like this.
Thanks!

#17

No prob, :smiley: Yeah from what i remember the main bad guy in the bond film goldeneye was bond’s partner at the beginning of the movie, he gets ambushed or they become separated somehow. Then towards the end he reveals himself as the big bad guy. I’m really not giving it justice. Anyhow, great bad guy concepts, I’ll be following ur work.

#18

I might have to see about watching that one then. :slight_smile:

#19

So I did a bunch of thumbs, trying to figure out just how I want the action to play. I’m still not sure, but here are the first two that I’ve colored. I don’t think my pencil sketches are that easy to understand.
Still lots more ideas to work through before I start on the actual image.

#20

I think I’ve finally found an idea that I like. FO24 is in a tank wrestling, or being strangled by, an octopus while Miss Meow pleads for his life. The bottom sketch is something along those lines and the others are more facial work on the bad guys. Nothing is really concrete yet, though. I might still change my mind. lol
