Description Surprise! I'm feeling a little sick today, so since I had to stay home from taekwondo, I decided to try my hand at my second drawing of a human, EVER. (this is also the 2nd pic in my Final Fantasy streak- Rikku, the Al Bhed)
I was a little rushed at the end, trying to get it finished- but I'm pretty happy with how the face turned out. Comments appreciated as I am very new to the whole "drawing humans" thing.

Good thing to be doing when you're down for a bit. Last time I had surgery it was on my wrist, so game playing was out of the question.
Which FF's do you play?

Schieben In reply to FlamestarPhoenix [2004-12-04 06:14:46 +0000 UTC]

my favorite is 9, but 10-2 is slowly gaining.
I play 2, mystic quest, 8,9,10 and 10-2

I've just recently started on 7, but the graphics are so horrid it's hard to do.

I just jumped on the bandwagon with 10. Yuna is my favorite female character possibly of all time, so naturally I got 10-2, and that's probably my favorite. Although I do miss the classic blitzball of 10.

I like it!! Same here...i can't draw my own characters (though I haf plenty) and I definitely need reference to do this sort of drawing...though I'm still trying!!

FlamestarPhoenix In reply to Excaldia [2004-09-19 17:27:34 +0000 UTC]

Keep on trying then...that's what I'm doing...I think it's all any of us can do (aside from those darn geniuses curse them! ) but with practice you do get better. I've been trying a lot more originals lately, I think they're at least decent.

Heh, well thanks a ton...This one was done with a reference pic so it turned out pretty good, I guess, I'm not nearly that good when I have to come up with an idea all my myself

This is amazing! (I haven't posted on any of your pics yet because I am slow and lazy..to make a long story short.) But your ability at drawing realistic pics is absolutely astounding. Keep up the great work!

Thank you!
Now if only I could come up with original ideas and be able to draw them too, like somebody I know (*cough*jadeling)...

Jadeling In reply to FlamestarPhoenix [2004-03-21 22:40:38 +0000 UTC]

Oh, get real. You don't want my ideas, I only do them when they've been in my head so long they're rotten.

FlamestarPhoenix In reply to Jadeling [2004-03-22 05:34:46 +0000 UTC]

your ideas in particular, maybe not...but I would love to be able to draw the characters from my own book! ...which I can't do, because (obviously) I don't have a picture of them to look off of.

X-2 kicks ass!! you will love it, although gameplay and leveling is quite different than FFX. Have fun and good luck with FFX!!!

This looks pretty good! I think i've seen this pic before...character guide??? Anyway, the nose is a little low and the nostrils a little too big, but you're awesome at doing clothes! Keep it up! ^^

FlamestarPhoenix In reply to ShuyaNanahara [2004-03-17 04:41:29 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm...yes, I see what you mean...noses are still tricky, I will work on it!
And yes you have, I've done all of my FF drawings out of the guide that comes with the game.

Thank you! And you're allowed to talk all you want. Just because you can't do something doesn't mean you don't have ideas on how others can do it better (this is my whole theory on teaching, anyway! )
