Okay, so here's my first one. Put it together with photoshop and some face sketching software. I think it turned out pretty good. Comments?

Oh, and he's supposed to be a dwarf... if you're wondering about the height/weight thing.

Interesting way to go about it. I know we have some artists here on the board, myself included, but I haven't seen anyone do photoshop work like that before. I would like to see more of these to get a better feel for them.

Pretty cool!

But what's that 'thingie' in his nose supposed to be?

To make him more dwarvish, you could raise the shoulders to run more 'horizontal' if you know what I mean. Maybe make the neck shorter, too.

Bye
Thanee

I agree with Thanee - looks pretty good, the nose thing confuses the heck out of me, and he seems like a dwarf head on a human body.

But an extremely cool idea, and well executed.

lol - awesome.

photos > drawings for SR in my opinion. and I actually do art for a living, it's not because I can't draw.

Ive always liked the art of Chad Michael Ward for that reason.

...would be interesting to see a try at one of the characters I have already posted (Leela or KK4.3). Are these generated from scratch or do you use a photographed model to start with?

About the nose thing.. it's not really any particular piece of gear. I think if someone needed justification for something like that, i'd just say that it's old cyberware. Perhaps a cut-rate job at that. Besides, I like the way it looks.

I think I'm just trying to add some feeling of realism for my players-- since we're all a little older, i think we are looking for something more gritty.

I plan on doing more of these, I'll post them as I finish. Thanks for the input, gents.

Jeez KK, always thinking about yourself.

100% keep doing them. The idea is great, and even with the nosewear, it's very cool.

Very very very nice work.
Would love to see (steal) more.

Yeah, it's pretty cool. Actually reminds me of someone I know (who also plays shadowrun, I must show him this).

Can hardly wait to see more.

Hey Kyoto, post a link to the pics you're talking about. I'll try to do a version when I have time!!

Ok, here is the second one. Not as flashy as the first, but I like the face. Tell me what you think, and what you'd like to see in the future.
