Yes, I've finally got around to doing some more char sketches. Posted Image

[url="http://"http://24.81.41.18/other/Katdrawings/group.jpg"]Here[/url]

It's a group shot of all 8 of my chars. From left to right- Lemni, Dheiva, Indigo, Katerei, Sya, Renae, and Amadeus. Silvre is in front.

Not all of the colors came through on the scan, unfortunately, particularly the blues. Katerei's skin was a bit more blue; Renae's dress was pale blue with a navy-blue stripe; Amadeus' robe was light grey and his shirt/belt was blue.

I've also re-done Trinias and done a sketch of Sasha, but they've yet to be scanned. I'll post them later.

Comments, questions, complaints, yelling? Hopefully not the latter Posted Image

<edit> Moonshadow, your turn! Posted Image </edit>

<edit 2> All right, the image was moved, so I've updated the link- hopefully it'll work now </edit 2>

<edit 3> Had to fix the link again...</edit 3>

<edit 4> My gosh, this link is causing a lot of problems. </edit 4>

Nice, I only wish I could draw. Anything I try to draw looks like a 3 year-olds
scribble with black crayon that's been driven over by a leaky dump truck. :P
I bet Iridium could fix the color issues for you if you ask him nice. Posted Image

BTW, nice scanner.

Pretty good, kat. You could use some work, though, on their sizes relitve to one another - they look out of perportion in that way. (Their body proportions, while favoring the head a little too much, are okay). It's consideribly better than your previous work - but did you rush a little towards the end with this? The feline character looks a little rushed on the body. (Or, maybe, you were warming up and actualy did her first, I don't know)

Hmm... I tried the link but it didn't work. I let it sit there for five minutes and nothing showed up. I have a cable connection. Does it just take really long? or is the link broken?

Well the link looks like it goes to kat's computer, so if its off or the IP was changed, then it wont work.

Yeah I didn't think of that. Now I clearly see it. Yeah her computer is just probably off.

More like her brother's, which should be on in about an hour. (it usually is anyway, he's probably not home now)

Worth a try, I suppose. Posted Image

Do you mean their heights? They're supposed to be different heights...Renae and Lemni are only kids, and it's in Katerei and Dhieva's races to be tall/short, respectively.

Hrm, yeah, she was a bit rushed. I didn't think much of it then, but thanks for pointing that out.

Yeah, his computer was off while he was at school. Not much I can do about that though, I don't have webspace anywhere else.

I think he means that their upper bodies are all varying heights, but their lower bodies (waist and below) are all about the same size. So some people have really small chests but long legs and others are fine. (specifically Lemni and Renae in my opinion)

Heh...whoops, you're right. Now that I look at it closely, that does look pretty strange. Ah well, at least I know to watch for that in the future. I'm not used to drawing more than one person at a time. Posted Image

My turn, eh? Heh, okay, I'm working on it, truly I am!
Moonshadow looks around susipciously.
Don't laugh, I'm serious!
I have the picture finished, actually, the scanner's just broken...

And Kat, could you upload the pic again? It gives me a "URL not found on this server" message...

Yup, finally got the rest scanned in.

Here's [url="http://"http://24.81.41.18/other/KatDrawings/ArcherPointing.jpg"]Trinias[/url] again. It's basically the same, but I didn't like the first one. Posted Image No, I don't know what he's pointing at.

[url="http://"http://24.81.41.18/other/KatDrawings/Dress.jpg"]Sasha's[/url] pic is taken from No Regrets. I couldn't figure out how to do her armor, so naturally, I put her in a dress. Posted Image Her bridesmaid dress, of course.

Then there's [url="http://"http://24.81.41.18/other/KatDrawings/TajLykaon.jpg"]Taj Lykaon[/url]. It's taken from when he is about to kill Tavara with Fate's Hammer. It was intended to look a bit scarier, but ah well.

So, there ya go. Another Ronin posted, Madaya. :P

Bah, I'm hopelessly behind now Posted Image Posted Image
Plus, I'm running out of elves to draw (or rather, elves I'm interested in drawing). Meh, I want a better description of... er, yeah. I'll get one, sooner or later! Or else... Posted Image

Anyway, nice work! Trinias really looks better this way, though ears appear to be somewhat pointed...
Also, I can't really see Sasha's pupils that well...
I like Taj best ;)

They were clearer in the paper version, but because the paper grain was really bad, the scan had to be lightened. Now you can't really see her eyes clearly.
