Love the sketch. You just get better and better. I really like how this one seems more finished. Before you have shown us sketches that look very messy but cool. This one is nice and clean. Me likey! :mjbdeadagain

Oh as far as name suggestions, sticking with the theme you have going...

Ace. Airman. Aerialist. Aeronaut.

The dude's wearing three belts, tube socks, and has a bandana or something covering an eye under psuedo-flying helmet - I'm thinking he's not quite all there.

With the buckles on one side, the eye-cover on the other, he's also asymetrical...

Asymetry!

Looks pretty sweet ... with the unorganized look to him, I thought Anarchy

Give him a name starting with B. Nobody will ever see it coming!

And I love it, Ink!

I actually love the name Aeronaut.

He looks like he should be in some RPG of some kind. I think it's the sheer amount of belts that does that.

Man, Ink - I never know what to say because I'm a complete and utter drooling fanboy over your work.  I'm serious, absolutely love everything you do.  I have no constructive or critique-ing comments to add.  I just love you.  Keep drawing, this is what you deserve to be doing.

Very clean and great design Ink.  "Anarchy", "Aeronaut" or maybe "Airhead" come to mind as possible names for him.   Are you planning to color?
Title: Re: DA ink art thread!part 3
Post by: ink on February 04, 2007, 10:34:45 PM
thanks guys, i usually try to do designs in threes at least before i colors so i can get a good color scheme but the other two aren't as dynamic of a character as this one.

Thanks for all the support though.

didn't create the character...it's for a jam i did on D.a
I dont know why i always have more fun redrawing other people's characters but when i need to do work for me i just end up freezing up. Ohh well , a warm up is still good for me.

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/10082735/?qo=14&q=by%3Arikun&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps

The challenge for me was making this character's colors work in and compliment each other. hard!

a 30 dollar commisioned... went through allot of stages. More than i would have liked. Maybe the next one is easier.

Does anyone remember my danger bots? lol I loved designed those and i forgot what most of them looked liked. :( anyone have a favorite bot of mine?
Title: Re: return of the bots
Post by: Carravaggio on February 09, 2007, 04:44:14 PM
yeah the spinning blade bot. i give it kamakazi in FF so when you defeat it it explodes, and spiny so when you enter h2h combat u have a chance of being cut.
Title: Re: return of the bots
Post by: ink on February 10, 2007, 02:18:46 PM
design that bot was one of my favorite...no phsyquie and easy animation

i might do more bot designs for fun.

Title: Re: return of the bots
Post by: Nymph on February 13, 2007, 06:11:52 AM
ok.........I have alot to say!  :thumbup:

The Aeronaut is the perfect name for your first drawing!!!
He is like a futuristic villain in a world with The Jetson-like fashion lol!
The Tagbot seems to work in that era as well. I miss your Airship crew, but they
seem like they belong in the same time  as The Aeronaut  and his maurading Tagbots of Belty Doom!

The girl's color scheme is weird. The guy must have been on LSD when he designed her lol!
But you made it work....the gold fits in well with her colors....and I love how you made her eyes the same green as her pendant!  :P
Again she fits in with the futuristic-cyber theme....I think that is where you are headed next....so keep in that era because your pumping out phenomenal stuff!!!!!!   

What ever happened to your drawings for Afghan Ant's space characters?  (I can't find it on your site and stuff....I liked those too.)

Is that like a fat alter-universe version of Doctor Octopus???? like............... THE CRAZY CRUSTACEAN!

Wonder Woman looks to be either flirting....or on the verge of tears....She is either staring intently at Superman with his shirt off......or watching Themyscira blow up as she flies away. Great work....the color scheme is awesome!
(I am a fan....but for once I would love to see a costume redisign of Wonder Woman....her clothing is way out there and she shows way too much......maybe if you have time........give her a modest outfit???)

I think the Anarchist seems very fitting for your first drawing. Ink I love all your work, you have your own unique style and it is all imaculate. Keep it up.  :thumbup:

Post by: ink on March 01, 2007, 06:55:29 PM
Hey guys i have been working on a seq and i am still learning this whole story telling process.However this is what i got and it is still in its rough stages. I tend to fill out the page wrongly and i need ot know about flow and movement of the page. Does it flow well? Does it read well?  Are positions of the characters making the page off  balance. I am a little rusty and i could use all the help i could get

sCript by gail simone: This is page 2
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v217/ink4884/page1-3.jpg)



I have included my thumbnails which are even rougher and well very fraggment. Do i need more panel variation or does this work. Can you figure out whats going on because if you cant its okay.

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v217/ink4884/thumbspart3.jpg)


PAGE TWO:
PANEL ONE: The machine gun, laying on the lawn where it landed, in the overgrown weeds. It lies next to a chubby, unblinking baby doll missing an arm and a leg.
THUG (TAILLESS): ARRRRRRRRRRUUGHKKKK!
HUNTRESS CAP: It wasn't easy getting him to TALK.
HUNTRESS CAP: Not easy stuff at all.
PANEL TWO: A ten year old Caucasian kid, with sunken, troubled eyes, close up. This scene is all flashback, David, so whatever method you like to use to convey that is fine. He's in a nice school room, and he's talking with Helena, who is a teacher in her civilian identity, but we don't see her yet. Corey's wearing a Green Lantern shirt, blue jeans, and looks like the weight of the world is on his shoulder.
HUNTRESS CAP: Last semester, Corey was one of my best students.
COREY: C'n I GO now, Ms. Bertinelli?
HUNTRESS: Happy, smart, and FUNNY in a way beyond his
years.
PANEL THREE: Helena, looking down on him from her desk.
HELENA: Corey...
HELENA: I want you to know--I'm not exactly LIKE the other
teachers.
HELENA: If you tell me what's wrong, maybe I could HELP.
PANEL FOUR: Back to the ganghouse, inside, Huntress is holding the first thug by the shirt with both hands. He's missing a front tooth and is barely conscious. At the same time, she's moving slightly out of the way of another Caucasian gangbanger who has a samurai sword and has swung it at her.
SECOND THUG: This OUR place, FOO.
PANEL FIVE: She kicks him, almost not paying attention, smashing him face first (and sword flying) straight into the bigscreen tv.
HUNTRESS: Sit down and shut up.
HUNTRESS: I'll get to you in a MINUTE.
HUNTRESS CAP: Something in my tone must've, I don't know...
HUNTRESS CAP: ...opened Corey's floodgates. Because he
started talking.

I didn't get a chance to reply before you posted the updates. I really like how you flipped that one panel in the last update. It was awkward having the baddie come at her from the left side of the page and then have her kick to the right. The fix is great and I love how you zoomed in closer to the Huntress in the flipped panel. Nice work.

Ink, I know I haven't been on for a while, so please forgive the late reply. Your work has come light years since you started posting. The figure work in these is really great. I love the dynamic movement, but most of all I like your shapes. The shapes and linework you use to create figures is very seductive and easy to like.

Just clean it up a bit so an inker doesn't have to guess in those greyer areas and you are on your way sir. Excellent work!  :thumbup:

Definately.  Flipping the image made the page flow much better.




Your Huntress is just totally filled with hotness and makes me hope she doesn't catch me staring at her but even if she did, I couldn't look away so I would turn red from shyness.

I like The Engineer I believe? (sorry never read that comic...Authority right?)
She is simple but her pose is so...."powerful but elegant woman" like
something you would see Jean Grey in or Storm.....maybe Hawkgirl.

The Sequence with Huntress is awesome! :)

Looking fantastic remember to post the finished work so we can praise it! :)

If you are doing forest? the main thing you need to do is Deer then Bear(Bear could be this grotesquely huge guy and Deer like a little girl)


Edit: could you add antennae on to the bee because it looks like a character from Little Nickie....if you know what i mean. why douesnt she have a stinger?

Thanks for all the comment guys , very motivating.

Funny thing is i drew Kid raccoon before work and Lady Jellyfish after work. I think kid raccoon is weaker personally but i'd love to hear your guys thoughts.

SO i will probally make some cosmectic changes to the characters when i finish the line up in two or three more characters.
Title: Re: new seq :ink
Post by: Nymph on April 04, 2007, 08:54:10 AM
to be honest when i fist saw her she looked like Squid Lady....the hat doesnt really represent jellyfish....I like Kid Racoon....what are their abilities this time? For him I see stealth and for her maybe lightning shocks....but then again Im not the artist.
Title: Re: new seq :ink
Post by: ink on April 04, 2007, 12:46:01 PM
umm yeah your correct


Bee's powers are phermones flight and idk hard shell?
Frogs are sticky good posionous goo

Kid Raccoon has a batman like mentor which idk if i want to draw...lol
stealth , wall climbing and agility

and Lady jelly?

Shocks? Paralaysis and magic wand? who knows..lol
Title: Re: new seq :ink

Title: Re: new seq :ink
Post by: Nymph on April 04, 2007, 06:11:48 PM
make it Bear or Deer = Batman  and Racoon = Robin


Lady Jelly is like totally cool but the hat is kinda off......i still think you should do a little girl like an 8 year old girl....maybe a sparrow?

I also like the Idea of an Owl (oldman)


but I cant draw so its up to you lol
Title: Re: new seq :ink
Post by: ink on April 06, 2007, 02:00:26 PM
tort- all coming out of my crazy head on my spare time. So orginal characters from me
thanks!

Nymph....
I was thinkin owl for batman BUT there is an owlman
and owl as old man is cool but yeah...i want to try and break some sterotypes

Ok she is only half jelly , half squid and half sea horse...lol wait thats too much

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v217/ink4884/forestduolinepart3-1.jpg)

in the same vain as the other designs. Except she isn't a "animorph". I was thinking what if there morphs and what if there people wanted to be as cool as the morphs but are just human. Like bats ^_^"""""

This robot isn't souless, comes with a complimentary panda soul btw :)

these two arent themed.....but they look more like bad guys......like shes the mastermind or the pretty assistant to an even more evil bad guy and he is just a hired thug for the big boss


make the boss a really old guy......or like kingpin
