Dude, really, you do this in your spare time and for free, who could possibly have a right to complain?

That would be freaking awesome! Nighteyes has kinda taken over as a character for me over the last month or so, so this will really end up being the culmination of that.
And of course, I can't wait to show him to my gaming group.
You take as long as you need.

BTW the second run of Rhapsody is underway. When the playtest is done I want to discuss illustrations before I put it out here on DS.

I have another character for drawing. He's an Ork mage named Sam, though he's known on the streets as "Trogo the Tagger." (Yes, I just came up with that now, but it's based on something I had already.)
He's about normal height for an Ork, but there's something about him that lets him fade into the background ("Blandness" quality in SR4). Also, he tends to dress much like a normal Corp mage: he got an armored jacket which is good for low-key business meetings as well as normal streetwear, and he's generally got his glasses on and his Predator 4 (caseless!) holstered.
No doubt there'll be a wait, so if you could PM me when it's ready I'd appreciate it.

That is rediculously awesome, and is very close to how I'd visualized him (it is now the new way I will be visualizing him.) I thank you a thousand times for this, it is truly sweet.
(and by the way, you got the head and horns pretty much exactly in proportion. Gread work.)
Nighteyes has been through a lot since I made the request, including a run in with twenty force 8 creatures spirits working for Annubis, and a quartet of red samurai attempting to kill him in his home (he sent them packing)
There is only one thing I could see added to this, if it wouldn't take too much of your time. It would be really cool to have a translucent wolf spirit in the upper left hand corner, just so there would be something identifying him as a wolf shaman. But if you don't have time for it, I understand perfectly.
This picture is going on my wall.

This has got to be your best yet. I like the setting, the two dudes on the roof behind don't know what's about to hit them. The detail on the revolver is especially sweet. That is the way I would see a Super Warhawk looking (my favourite firearm & I have fired it's "predecessor", the Blackhawk, in RL).
If you would like, put the Grande Family Portrait on the back burner & move Markova in the slot. Am very interested in seeing my Dwarf-Cosmonaut-Doctor-Sammy.

The good thing about it being a wolf Spirit is that it can be a little blurry, indistinct or out of proportion.

I'd love to see your take on this Squinky, I'm amazed at how good the last drawing you did came out.
The character's name is Lucien, he is an elven black mage with a flair for the theatric. He likes to be flashy with his magic and his looks, using spells such as lightining, trid entertainment/Trid Phantasm, and ignite. Nothing quite scares the flarg out of someone like seeing a person set on fire. He has long platinum hair and wears a light blue trenchcoat. He has feedback material weaved into his coat and clothes as to add to his theatrics. He is fairly tall coming in at about 6'3" with a wiry build. If push comes to shove against another mage he also packs a Colt with stick n shock rounds.

An athletic caucasian human male, 36 yrs old, Carter is an ex-government agent specializing in counter-insurgency and organic damage. Since leaving the bureau, he still hasn't shaken the nor-eastern style of dark suits with longcoats. Short length brown hair, that is just a little longer than the old regs allowed, frames a face that has been around the block a few times and fallen down more than once along the way.

..actually looks pretty cool. Fills the blank space on the upper corner nicely giving the composition a bit more balance. The sprit also looks as if it is menacing the guys on the roof (or maybe warning NightEye they are there).

Only things I can think about are maybe just a bit more prominence of the DocWagon logo (I know there's a good image of it somewhere in one of the sourcebooks), and maybe an old Mission patch or two (check the NASA website for ideas) is about all I can suggest. Otherwise she looks absolutely perfect.

...me again. Now that I have some time to calm down. This has yet to be your best, and I'm not just saying that because Markova is my character.
The pose is incredibly natural and fluid, the look in her eyes shows personality. Again, I like the toning effect much more than colour. It seems to give more of a three dimensional depth to the image.
There is another question I have but I will PM later on this.

Yes actually, I just started toning the images for interior art on a mission here recently. The contact images will remain the same black and white style for consistency's sake. All in all I am personally happy with how it is coming out.

Heh, I never made that connection.
I mostly just like to throw little goofy things in my pictures, the whole deal with him was death and taxes, except I put it on backwards. I think I am mostly influenced by SR2 type pictures, it seems back then that most runners were depicted as punks and now it seems runners are more military or stealthy.....Might just have been my take on it though, I started playing around age 13.....

I've been resisting the temptation to ask, but I'm giving in:
Character's name is Hawk; as the saying goes, he is mad, bad and dangerous to know--polite, professional, even-keeled... and if you work for the Yaks or deal beetles, expect to die. Human, Caucasian, height, 1.82 meters, weight, 80 kg, medium build, hair, sandy blond, medium length, eyes, green (although I don't expect color in the slightest). Scar from high right forehead down to right jawline. Prefers long coats, jeans and a t-shirt, and wears either goggles or glasses for AR. Drives a Yamaha Growler. Carries, at a minimum, two guns, spare clips, and a sword of some sort with him at all times (and often alot more than that).
Thank you in advance!

And hey, are you ever gonna do that picture of Kyoto Kid and Skate?
Kyoto Kid
Apr 23 2007, 04:40 PM
...wowsa!
Each new pic I see gets better and better. You do a good job with animals as well, love Kitty's "smile" (cats have some amazing facial expressions - check out the
Stuff on my Cat website sometime). Yeah, I can see the Gandalf/Matrix look. His expression imparts a strong feeling of wisdom to me - wisdom born of years in the shadows.
@Skate & KK: Yeah I'd like to see this too, but there are a few other folks in line ahead of them so I'm patient (still amazed by Markova - may have to re-write the character under SR4 now).
When you do get to the Skate & KK pic, A few suggestions...
KK should have a more decidedly "wild west" look. Her armoured jacket would be like a leather range herder's jacket with (if her back is visible) a variant of the classic Japanese painting "The Wave" on the back. Of course she should be wearing her trusty (armoured) Stetson. Underneath she wears the latest Tokyo hip clothing (Check out David Mack's
Kabuki site for ideas) In one of the old pics I did of her years ago she is wearing tight slacks with the rising sun motif radiating from her right hip (as she's facing - BTW actually saw a similar pair of slacks in a boutique window the other week
![eek.gif](http://forums.dumpshock.com/html/emoticons/eek.gif)
). Her top can be almost anything from a tube top to western shirt with the traditional Cowboy "cord" tie.
I like the the revolver for you did for NightEyes Now, that is a Ruger Blackhawk (which is the style KK uses).
