Character Collab Contest

alarid0 · #1 03-17-2006, 07:19 AM

Yes, a collab contest. :P

A while ago, I made this:

This character is the thing that started my working this piece, which you all have already seen. I liked the proportions and style of the original guy so I wanted to make more like him.

A few days ago I decided to strip the character down to his bare skin and work on getting the human figure more accurate, while still keeping alot of the same style of the thief-ish looking guy:

Here's what I want to do. I want to get all of you out there who are willing to make your own characters: clothe my people. Not that one that I showed there...unless you really want to. I used that already for my own. Once this whole thing is complete I'll have a judging and give some cash to the winner (obviously...I can't win)

I'll be drawing the base figure for you: you just draw the clothing, armor, accessories...whatever you feel like adding. Get creative! I'm hoping for more than jeans and a t-shirt :P If you want to participate, post what pose you want the character to be in, and I'll get to work.

P.S. ...I wasn't planning on posting mine for everyone to see untill later on...
unless you really want to see it

I hope this sparks your peoples interest

I don't deny I will lose horrendously, but I will give it a shot for practice.

Myomoto · #3 03-17-2006, 03:51 PM

Fix me up, no pose in particular

davidpsy · #4 03-19-2006, 11:23 AM

I'll be entering.

Tom · #5 03-19-2006, 02:52 PM

Nice idea, i might try it myself, btw the muscles on that guy are so well done, and the style is awesome

Do you have a special way you create your characters in this style? Like i have different methods to make stuff, that seems really complicated to others, but is uber simple ^+^

GoZelda · #6 03-19-2006, 07:14 PM

I'll do it 'cos I'm bored.

alarid0 · #7 03-20-2006, 02:49 AM

:o thanks don

I hadn't given too much thought into it but hey the backup means alot

anyways, as for not much going on....

I'm waiting to find out how many people want to do it. Once thats established I'll be posting as many poses as are needed: dump all of them into the thread at once...then first come first serve.

I've got some done already, but I'll dish out a full set for you guys soon.

davidpsy · #8 03-20-2006, 05:42 AM

Don't post my pose,

. Its too muscular anyway, doesn't fit your style, though that is the point of my character, hes supposed to be powerfull and over done.

alarid0 · #9 03-24-2006, 11:20 PM

Sorry :X
I got caught up in some stuff...
and now I've got to work all weekend, then family vacation for the whole next week...
So I might as well post the only ones I did get done
Pick one and go with it.
I hope to see some cool stuff when I get back

Also, since I'll be gone for a while, here's mine. I was going to wait for a few others to be finished first...
but viola

Tom · #10 03-24-2006, 11:54 PM

...I think i love you lol Those are amazing and im pretty annoyed that not many people are posting, and on my behalf am also sorry for not paying more attention to such good quality work.

Lovely armour, and great poses, we need to speak about your characters and how you create them sometime

Draenin · #11 03-25-2006, 07:23 AM

Graaaaah. Postpone the contest until I can get my comp fixed! :[

alarid0 · #12 03-25-2006, 08:56 AM

Which brings up a good question...
When should the deadline be?
Input please!

Elk · #13 03-25-2006, 10:25 AM

Wow I'm very impressed. Good work Alarid

Goboom · #14 03-25-2006, 03:55 PM

Give them a week...
I can't enter it for like the next month or so, because of my schedule but I will be doing one that is for sure!

CidNight1142 · #19 03-25-2006, 11:41 PM

I'm working on one...but its really no where near that caliber of Alarid's. Also, I'm having alot of trouble with hair. Perhaps I'll try to copy Alarid's. Haha, we'll see what happens.

davidpsy · #20 03-26-2006, 02:31 AM

Make it at least a week from now.

alarid0 · #21 03-26-2006, 07:05 AM

How about a week after I get back?
So...April 12th?

davidpsy · #22 03-26-2006, 10:41 AM

I'll be done probably before then, sounds good.

alarid0 · #23 04-06-2006, 12:39 AM

No submissions? I'm hurt

Draenin · #24 04-06-2006, 09:47 AM

Are all those deleted posts really just people drawing penii on the character in question?

No, just a stupid argument.

Hahahah. That character would have a difficult time relieving himself without missing.

I have a really kickass idea in mind, so please extend the date if you will. There haven't even been that many entries yet.

Zero, Antago, Alarid, and whoever else wants to join in needs to duke it out with me in a sprite battle.

Speaking of which, we need to have more of these. They really kick ass.

Sprites throw me into a homicidal frenzy.

Draenin · #30 04-07-2006, 11:47 PM

And this much is why we all love you.

Keep it in the pants.

davidpsy · #31 04-11-2006, 07:13 PM

davidpsy · #40 04-12-2006, 08:52 PM
