...I think it should be Buzz Cola (hehhehheh) :grinbig: [Jean] Nice crowd scene. For some reason however, the angle on his face doesn't look right. Maybe not defining his jawbone all the way up to the ear might help and/or a bit more tilt to his head. I notice when I look over my shoulder in the same pose my head tilts down and slightly to the left (from my vantage point). |

...I totally love it. Very nice touch. Lana was quite the "roving reporter" when I played her. Even was sent to London once. Nice to have one of my former hometown hangouts immortalised. Alas, I found out the RL Milwaukee Press Club is no more. However it's "older sister" establishment, the Safehouse (founded back in the 60s during the old Secret Agent days and owned by the same people) is still going strong. ...and you still need a password to get in. In my Milwaukee SR setting, both joints are still around. |

2nd draft of 'jean'.
http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/52638653/ I've played around with the idea of the angle of the face, still have plans to change, however I'm thinking of having him look over his other shoulder therefore displaying his Tatto, so the next draft maybe different. Also the magic visual may change, I'm toying with the idea of having the same symbol he traces for his 'Mob Mind' spell above the crowd. |

Not bad, not bad... Her eyes look like obvious cyber, though...
Also, the Troll looks like he's a member of the Haloweeners or something. Maybe you should try to make him more mud-leather colored instead of green? |

...not sure which I like better, the colour or the B & W (actually didn't expect to see a colour version). Sometimes when there is a fair amount of ink detailing/shading, colour tends to wash and flatten things out a bit. Because of the bright contrast, Mel's jeans seem to have no definition and the colour of Lana's irises tends to make her eyes look somewhat metallic lending to SD8685's observation.
In the description I sent, Lana actually has light brown hair and brown eyes and all her vision enhancements are retinal/corneal/cortical mods instead of replacements. I would tend to agree with SD8685 that Mel's colouration would be more on the ruddy side. Question, is the colouration done though software after the scan is made? |

Very nice. Only small thing is he's an elf, not human. I like the way you showed him casting mob mind on the crowd. Thanks a ton. |

Well the B&W should look better than the color one all the time, my medium isn't color, sorry about the mix-up in hair color wasn't following the description at all as much as trying to conquer boredom and giving color a try. As far as the coloring itself is concerned it's only the first stage of 'base' colors that I posted, and 'yes' the image is being colored digitally i.e. scanned in B&W then colored in PS. Now I managed to get some shading in before I posted, that type of shading happens throughout the art work not just the primary character, which should bring out more detail as you go. Then by using layers u modify the 'base' colors to your liking, but enough of that anyway. I leave the B&W image of Lana Lane up, and reserve the color version 'till I've mastered the art of color.
imperialus: Thanks, the image posted is a first draft so elven he will be in the final, so please any other suggestions send in so that I may acommidate them before the heavier pencils go down. |

...yeah, outside of Oil & Watercolour painting, BW (Pencil in Particular) is more my chosen medium. Unfortunately Oils require space (which I do not have much of where I live), good ventilation, and a lot of patience.
The technique you mention with PS is actually fairly similar to what I used to use with oils of laying down the base colour than adding successive layers to do toning, highlighting & shading (similar to how it was done in the Renaissance). The benefit with PS is you don't have to wait upwards of a week sometimes for the base and previous layers to dry. This was especially critical with the lighter colours which have the longer drying times. The other thing is with PS you can go back and change the base colours a lot easier that I could on canvas. Since this sounds like a work still in progress I'll keep checking from time to time. |

just a FYI for those who might not understand. Any item I post to the thread is a work in progress, if it shows up on the first page then it is a complete piece of artwork. I will adhere to these rules myself and ask for forgiveness for not following this guideline :) .
Although I'm not a Colorist I still enjoy seeing what a colored piece of art looks like and I do plan on coloring and placing background on all previous submission. Thanks again for all your support. :D |

...though you can't see as much of his face, his head turned in the opposite direction works better with the entire composition. It makes it look like he is ready to command the people under his spell.
I especially like the guy in the baseball cap. Kind of a "Hank Hill" type. |

any chance you could do a hacker/gamer with gremlins 4? his icon is a neon blue lightning bolt with two 'eyes' and a 'mouth'(really just lines). he also has "gameing" cyberware that lets him live in the matrix (see, hear, smell, touch and taste) as well as a head commlink and hot sim module. basicly what i would imagin the gamer of 2070 to look like. thanks if you decide to take it up

His real name is Wally. His handle is Zapper on account of his icon. He is known as Neon to the corps due to a hide program glitching. (It turned everything in the host neon colors so he blended right in) oh and he doesn't really stand out in any way, at least not in the meat. thanks again.

As long as it's fully understood by the people running the SR MMO and you that the creative liscence to the character remains fully in control of the originator (IE: the person who requested the character), and that they will not use the art in any material that must be paid to get to (IE: putting it in the game, instruction manuals for the game, promotional materials that you must pay to gain access to, et cetera), then that's fine.
Alternatively, if they're willing to negotiate a fee or kickback from said paid uses of the material that pays to both me and you, that's fine with me, too. :) |

...Well. by far, the best would be my namesake, KK. I will have to think about it since she is still (at least in a new SR4 version) an active PC.
