Raizor's art topic of unresponsiveness and active lollygagging

[Rai]

And also shitty printer, combined with my being often too lazy to darken lines once the picture has been otherwise completed, resulting in scanned versions of penciled drawings looking like ass.

I wanted to make a new topic because I decided it would be easier to just make a new one rather than trying to properly and effectively revive the old one. Plus these drawings are significantly better and will be more varied.

First, a human character! WHAT

HE IS NOT CRYING IT IS BLOOD



I could get into all sorts of **** about the character, but that would be stupid, but I'll just sum up the point of the picture with: He's immortal.


Next, mandatory anthropomorphic cat is mandatory,



Although it's worth noting that this is just significantly better than previous drawings of aforementioned mandatory cat. For reference, here's a picture of the same character, but drawn about a year (and a half?) ago:



Indeed.


And finally, your childhood memories improved:



Or violently raped, whichever you prefer. I like to think that if they have been raped, it's solely by my inability to properly capture the awesome the idea this picture contains in a 5 minute doodle. If you'd prefer, simply imagine the exact same drawing, but more awesome.

Bam. Improved.

First pic looks like it's raining toothpicks.

[Rai]

Maybe it is.

I initially thought the first guy was being impaled by rain, but then I realized that

this was probably what was happening.

Good stuff though. That cat looks like a badass. Coattails of doom are always fun.

[Rai]

I honestly did not stop for one moment when drawing the first picture to wonder exactly what was falling.

It was just sharp things. Toothpicks, as it turns out.

[Rai]

Oh, here are some older things (not more than a month old, though).





I forgot to crop and manually resize the Joker when I first uploaded it. Luckily Photobucket auto-resizes. This is the only time in my life in which I will praise that it does this.

Also, The Deep Mystery of EVA snrk snrk snrk

Pretty coo'.

I'd like to see colored versions one day.

[Rai]

Hate colouring by hand; I don't have the patience, the tools, or the practice to make it look very good. Besides, scanner will reduce all hand-done works in quality by about 20%.

Digital colouring is kinda tedious (though now that I have a better mouse it's doable), and honestly, good colouring done via hand (see: yours) often looks better than digital colouring.

Well, my digital colouring anyway.


So I think the next thing I'm gonna take a shot at and show is a landscape. I have no idea to what degree it will be realistic or fantastical though. I haven't actually tried on a landscape in several months.

And god damn first picture bugs me the more I see it because what is supposed to be blood looks like tears and I don't want none of that **** in my pitchers.

[Random]

Yep, definitely thought they were tears.

[Rai]

ffffff

[Rai]

All fixed.

So how's Eko these days?

ORAGINIL CHARICATURE DUE KNOT STEEL

[Rai]

I dunno. After like a forever of back-and-forthing his character and design a while back, he's been almost completely solid for the past while and I haven't really changed him much at all. I've been more interested lately in properly fleshing out Maderro (above cat), considering his character has more dimensions (or it's supposed to), and I find him more entertaining to draw; sleek villainous characters are always quite fun. His clothes actually work with his personality and make the drawings look cool. Eko's... Less so. I haven't figured out how to make them flow with his movements as well. Not that I've tried very hard.
