the 'Draw your Character' thread

Alright! I've done a pretty quick doodle of a person in the hopes that more people will use it to show how they intepret their character in the NC world, or just draw an outfit that they think is cool... :)

Now that I think about it, I probably should have done a more basic pose... But what better way to get introduced to something than to be plunged face-first into it? :)

Sorry that it's so big!! :(

To get started on this, you can print the sketch out, and draw the outfit you want over it (like I sort of did really really lightly on it)... If you don't have access to a printer you could just draw the outlines of the outfit using Photoshop or whatever else you're comfortable with!

After you've done any of that, my tutorials might be able to help! Start out by inking with this one and then color it in with this one!! If you're having difficulty understanding how I did some of the stuff on the tutorials, either send me a PM, or see if Al Mackey's Photoshop Tutorial helps at all. It's pretty much the exact same thing as my tutorial!

I hope I was thorough enough with this! I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone creating their own unique outfit :)

I'll make a few more sketches like the one above in a slightly less complex pose in the future! :)

Some pretty leet drawings i must say , i like that one PE with the glass's and the red/white coat

Have another, not great though.

I got something, but it isnt nc related, just a piece of work I had to do for a game design class yesterday. The assignment was to draw up a figuer for a game based on a planet entirly covered in water. I had to create a side or main antagonist some how in 5 mins. And this is what I got. Hey rose can you suggest and color filters or something to add a "water" effect?

Crap, the picture got deleted, ahh well, here it is again.

That's a really cool dude Clive!! :)

I don't really know how to do too many special effects on photoshop but I can tell you that if you're looking for one in particular to check out www.pslover.com ... It has lots and lots of tutorials for photoshop, though more than a few of them aren't written so well and are difficult to follow!

I have two doodles, neither of them turned out as NC-like as I'd have intended and trying to put a screenshotted background on them just insulted the picture... :P

This is my finished version of the sketch I posted previously, although I really hate it :( it looks like an anime version of Lilo from Lilo and Stitch if instead of being an orphaned hawaiin girl, she was in a circus-style danceclub... Don't like it!!

I tried a different colorscheme than I normally do (very warm colors) but the hot pink stockings just mess it all up!

This is my new CA char called Agent Marmalade, who in this picture looks way too unorganized, messy, and generally bad-ass to live in NC!

I plan on redoing both of these pictures when I can find the time!

PS - 200th post on the most viewed thread in the RP forums! cool! :cool:

I like those allot, Ill have some mecha scanned in probably tonight, but first I have to finish a 5 second animation cycle first (thats roughly about 75-90 hand drawn images, scanned twice each, and so on >_<)

PEace out

Cool Clive, good luck with that! :)

This is a second version of my new char Agent Marmalade!! I think it's much better, not quite so strappy like the last one, but definately still badass!

BTW - noone else wants to give a shot at doodling their char? :(
I'll take requests for character doodles if you don't feel comfortable with your own drawing skills via PM! :)

yea that last picture is sooo good i really like it :) background just completes it. and the shades etc everything seems to work perfectly :)

Very quick doodle, and a bit shit frankly....

You are far too modest, lol

Your drawings, along with the other non-Paint ones, are great!

And Sunny's last one with the pink stockings is kinda kinky, 8|

This doodle is an attempt to keep my renditions of the female anatomy back on track! Unfortunately the right arm doesn't really taper off too well, and her face looks like she was repeatedly bashed by a lead pipe... :(

I'm not really sure if this picture is of suitable content for this forums, so I'm going to play it safe-ish and not put the picture in the post... So if you're offended by more-than-partial nudity, don't click this!!

I like the other one of a similar pose that I did earlier... It looks much more sultry and mysterious...

Also, Mystic-Crusader sent in a request for a male spy, which I should have finished pretty soon (I'm more comfortable drawing females as opposed to male bodies)

And if anyone's interested, I deleted my char 'Agent Marmalade' and renamed her as 'Madeleine Thorpe', so if anyone wants to, you know, talk or level up or give me stuff or something... :D

I was really hoping that I wouldn't have to double post on this thread... :(

I'm not really too happy with the way either of these came out... I guess I was in just too much of a rush and did everything way too sloppily!

This is a CityAdmin infiltrator. I was planning on making this picture into a wallpaper, but I couldn't get that 1960s comic book style that I was looking for!

This is a DoY glider pilot (feel free to make as many women driver jokes as you want)... I like the pose, the belt and the feathers, but I don't like her simplistic body figure or her face. A set of goggles above her eyes would have completed the outfit, but I really can't be bothered to add it in now. I think the background came out really nice with the shadow I added on the bottom, though!! :)

Hope everyone else isn't suffering from an art slump like me :)

The last picture looks like she has been sitting on horseback too long :lol:

very nice drawings though but I think mine was better :cool:
