A couple of sketches

[chalchihuitlicue]

Meh, I felt bad for not posting anything lately, so I got off my ass and scanned a couple sketches of my game design characters. ^_^

I'm trying to do "pretty, flowy" shots for each character, and I've bought different coloured cardstock for each of them so I can colour them eventually. They all have one or two word titles based on songs that fit the characters. ^_^ (I believe I've already posted the colour versions of "Destiny" and "The Phoenix", which I hated and tore up - so expect new colour versions whenever.)

So here is the sketch for "Nightmare":


And "Gleam":


These are both guys, btw. ^_^ The Lord of Heaven (the second one) is just very effeminate/androgynous, because he's a creator god, and I've always thought that the creator was really neither male nor female... Just whatever they choose to be at the time. ^_^ He can also make his weapon whatever he wants it to be at any given time - which is why he's sometimes drawn with a rapier-esque sword and sometimes with a scythe. I like Mictlantecutli's sword better, though.

I've also got sketches for Ehecatl ("Fly"), and Mictlantecihuatl ("Rebirth"), but I am far too lazy to scan them. ^_^ I'm working on the one for Cautemoc, which is going to be called "Birdcage".

Cookie to anyone who knows what anime three of those songs are from. ^_^

Those are great!! You should setup some type of gallery for your art online.

Yeah, I don't have one that's just for my art... I have one on deviantart and one on y-gallery, but I've never had time to set up and program my own. >.<

ETA:

Mictlantecihuatl - "Rebirth"


Ehecatl - "Fly"

... These are again wonderful examples of your artistic ability. Really very nice to look at, even without the color. In fact, if you colored them, they might not stand out as much as they do now.

W these are really good pictures. But the first guy/girl kinda looks like his/she's stabbing himself/herself.

Great work as always...I'll have to agree with Adam though, colour would probablly ruin these pieces. Personally I prefer black and white stuff to colour. But that's just me. Keep it up.

I also wouldn't mind doing these as oil paintings... ^_^ I just definitely would not have time or money to do so. Coloured pencils are my alternative.

I don't know, I just like working with colour. It's much more satisfying, unless I fully render it in pencil, which I would never do with these, because I lose so much detail. >.<

I'm glad you guys like these, at any rate. ^_^ I'll probably do ink copies of these and include them in my Drawing and Characterization final. ^_^
