Description A pic for my little bro,
This is Robert, a 6'10", densely muscled rottweiler. Despite the size, brawn and the rotty genes, this big fella's the kindest, most loving pup you'd ever meet; and he's quite the brain, too. He's been a best friend of John's, Sarah's brother, for years now, and she's come to look at him, and love him, like another big brother. Of course, Robbie doesn't love her the same way. In fact, he's desperately and hopelessly in love with Sarah. To make matters worse, Robbie's part of Scotland Yard's Forensics Team, so he literally has Sarah in his head, in his heart AND in his immediate surroundings each and every day. But you wanna know what's the cherry on this shy dog's love-torture sundae? Sarah, being the cute girl that she is, and thinking of poor Robbie as her big, snuggly bro, always sneaks up behind him, snuggling and glomping and being as wonderfully close as she can be. You know why he's wearing the bandages in his hand? Well, imagine the big rottweiler handling delicate glass instruments, like a test tube or a flask, and from behind him, the love of his life hugs him sweetly. Robbie instantly tenses all up, and that includes his hand. With that big grip of his, he shatters the glass, getting it all over his hands. There comes his other nickname, one given to him by his Crime Lab associates: Robbie Redpockets; for his habit of sticking his bloodied hands into his pockets so Sarah won't see.
Well, I was in the mood to create something different. Yeah, I can be cruel to my characters sometimes, but doesn't that make them more interesting?

Anyhow, I hope you like it, little bro!

Just curious...what is he like in a fight? Let's say on his way home he gets jumped by..5 thugs (to be fair) would he freak and run away or would he fight. if the answer is the later...Can you explain how he fights?

Oh he'll fight, but only if it's absolutely necessary. If someone just calls him a name from the other side of the street, he'll totally ignore it. But threaten someone (innocents, children, elderly, pretty girls) or actually put him in a dangerous situation, and he'll put those Rottweiler instincts to work.

His tactic is simple: Overwhelm, overpower and make sure it's all taken care of quickly. Few people are as tall or as well-developed as Robbie, so he'll use it as an advantage. He'll just deliver strong, direct punches to where they count (like a good jab that'll just leave a broken nose or maybe knock the assailant out), and take the blows as they come, always sure to protect whomever is in danger. He's not afraid of pain, and he's a quick healer.

A little side note is that his hands are very very VERY calloused from all the beakers he's broken, so he could almost grab a knife by the blade and dissarm the opponent (which he has done, once).

I hope that answers your question.

I have Photoshop elements 2.0
can I make some kind of that with that program too?
and can you give me some tips please?

kokiteno In reply to Stoewie [2004-08-04 15:45:41 +0000 UTC]

Hmm... I really don't know about elements.
The most basic trick I use is layers. Lots and lots of layers. One layer for the outline, one for the basic colours, one for the shadows and one for the light.
On the shadow and light layers, I use typical black and white brushes (respectively) at 100% opacity. The way I get them to look smooth is by decreasing the LAYER's fill, therefore getting this uniform pattern, as opposed to drawing with low opacity brushes on a 100% opacity layer.
Don't be afraid to retouch your picture after you scanned it. The best thing to do BEFORE you actually begin to colour is to smooth out the lines, making it look cleaner.

If you'd like any more tips, just send me a note. I'd be most happy to help out.

You are a very cruel fox. Making a guy nervous for the idled girl? ANd makes him wound his hand? That's cru~elleee!!!

Anyway, he looks cool, and so formal! I love the formal suit (although I hate to wear it ), and you still want to expose his masculinity by showing his abs, don't you?

However, for the shirt he's holding, (also the innser shirt), I think it needs a bit more folds. The background fits him a lot.

I am not a big dog person, but I'll not hold it against you.

I love the way you cged this, the highlights and shadows really accent the details on the anatomy and attire. Excellent job on the anatomy as well, it is rather hard to define muscles on humans, let alone on canines. Anthro is definitely something that is beyond my skill.

You really have made him endearing, and human. The smaller details such as the glasses and selection in terms of outfit, not only give him character, but definitely convey a very humane aspect of him.

I love how the bg really makes the eyes stand out. The blue ties in, and the green really accents the red of the sweater as well.

Wonderful work

He's a fella from a video game, Rival Schools. His clothes and psture are very similar. It's a neat coincidence.

He's awesome big bro. ^___^ I always liked Robbie, and the story you made bout him of their relationship with him and Sarah. You do it in so much detail. And he's got those feelings around her; I'm already having idears to invovle him in fics with Sarah...until one day he'll express his true feelings. XD what a great guy Robbie is. Nice work big bro.
