i'm sorry, you confused me. i think you're talking about what i said of the arms, in which case i didn't mean for them to be the same. i'm trying to find a site to upload it for you to see(it's hard to find one 'cause so many sites are blocked on my comp).

and i'm very surprised you like the idea of the metal thingies. i guess we'll see how you feel after you see it though. this is the first time i've drawn metal like this, and i did a little bit of shiny which is also a first for me.


Photobucket and imageshack.us blocked?
How about http://tinypic.com/ or http://www.photolava.com/ (I just looked that one up i don't know if it's any good)

No it's fine. lol NiGHTS has pecs too but people fail to notice that. *points to poster in room*
I like the design more I look at it. Don't change anything. It surprised me tis all because I don't have any boobs. haha!


I don't mean to bud in, but could you get a shot of the entire poster for us.... I feel like I've seen a very tiny version of it before with a character in the upper left side that I couldn't identify :)

thanks! i tried combining that "mech" type with a little bit of class with the dress shirt and the coat. i probably could have done better, but i'm satisfied at the moment.

i knew i wasn't going to colour it, so i didn't think about colours much. now that i think about, i'm not sure vermillion would look good on this maren.

well, how about black, blue, and vermillion? a dark blue, but not really dark. i'll see how that goes.

Those sounds like good colors. Maybe make the metal a blue tint? I don't know I've always been fond of light blue metals... >_>''

Well I have tons of Hats... I like them all. I like jestery ones best and if I was to think of 'Maren hat I like most I'd have to say Reala or Wizeman's. Reala's because they're big and curly, and Wizeman because it's really crazy looking.

MY favorite hat is a tube-like hat that is red and black striped... I used to draw myself in it all the time. it has two triangles at the end one is black and the other is red... it's a good hat and has served me well over the years. I'd show you a photo but my HD died a few days back and I don't have any of my files right now.

hmm, i kind of went the other way, making the metal vermillion and blue for her hat, coat, and the bottoms of her gloves. then using vermillion again for the stripes on her pants. and i used black for the sleeves and the top of her gloves and her pants. BUT, i messed up while colouring it so i'll have to start over and i can colour that way if you want.

I'm not sure... maybe witty, stoic, one-track minded, bold, masculine, protective, loyal, stubborn?

Yes, since my HD died, it's best if you can post it in this topic for quick ref.

It's more of a homage to Wiseman.

How much longer will this be going on? I got a few ideas, but I would like to know how much time I'll have to do it. I've been on a dry point currently in my drawing, thus I need to do a few contests to fire me up so to speak.

i've got one going now too. i've got it drawn, but i probably wont be able to finish it until i get home from work...

edit: okay here he is.

Posted Image
the blue is torn cloth, kinda like the rest of his clothes actually burst through an old outfit of something...except the pants..
the pattern on his hat, coat and boots ripples out toward the ends (didn't want worry about getting the pattern exactly the same all the time..or even on both sides. so it moves and changes) and forms the droplets, after a while they drop off and new ones form. His arms and torso are made of the same stuff.
my inspiration? a lava lamp...

edit again: aaand i'm retarded. just reread your first post and you wanted blue-grey eyes...and i can't recolor the origional..maybe a quick computer edit..

another edit: okay fixed it, went ahead and cleaned it up a bit too. i'll leave the first one up just in case...

also i changed both pics into thumbnails so this post won't be massive...

Here is my contribution :3 The colours would be more vivid but since it is a sketch peice, I decided to mute the colours a touch to make it appear softer.

Be nice to Squiddy, he's been through a lot the passed few days. :) This is not the original I put so much work into, as my art program decided to chew up and corrupt it, but this is the best I could recreate.

His name's not really Squiddy, its just my little nick name. I'll leave it to Maresuke to decide whether or not that'll be his name if he's chosen. If he's not, Squiddy it is! XD

Just out of curiosity, was Raziel a source of inspiration for that design? There are a few design elements that just scream Soul Reaver to me.

I told myself that people would think that about his feet after I drew him on paper. XD I mentioned that to Loren, actually, and she sat there trying to reassure me that that isn't all that distinct. I strongly disagreed and your mention of Raziel backs me up on that. lol

However, the only thing I can think of that are similar to Raziel are his feet, which were somewhat warped versions of Maresuke's bull hooves on an old piece of artwork (also involving an octopus.. XD)

Edit- Now that I'm self conscious and staring at my drawing, what else is there that you think is like Soul Reaver?

Maybe it's just because I'm a rabid "Legacy of Kain" fan or because this is my desktop, but I've noticed a few other similarities. Yeah, the feet are most apparent, but there is also:

-Blue skin color
-Emaciated appearance
-Three digit hand with claw-like fingers
-Leg wear that ends beneath the knees

It is a sweet design though. Very NiGHTS-like in the proportions and like me you're incorporating blue which I'm glad to see since quite a few designs have already made frequent use of white and black. Honestly, I'm surprised I haven't seen more blue up to now since oranges and blues are contrasting colors. I like it when things get mixed up a bit.

Many other designs are quite good as well. How the hell do you guys come up with this stuff?

-"Emaciated" seems to be my style, as Purgatory looks like he peels small bits clinging to bone to survive , along with everything I draw. (I don't mean to. Poor NiGHTS looks like he vomits to lose weight when I draw him)

-The skin is blue because I wanted to leave some little tributes to Reala since Reala is Maresuke's favourite

-Maresuke likes three digits and I didn't want to blatantly have Reala's hands reused

-I don't know what it is with me and leggings/stirrups. I'm retarded and have no explanation for that lol I just seem to be into making up funky legwear:
Posted Image

-I'm stealing that picture:D

I'm babbling. Long story short, I'm not offended that you'd think that or anything (a lot of talk usually means offense to some people?) because I love Soul Reaver and to think that I'm anywhere near that level of creativity is flattering. So thanks for filling me in and for the compliments. -_- He's a lot plainer than most of the others here on this thread!

-Edit- Where's yours?? (You said "like me" ) I want to see it! Unless I missed it..
