Description Edit: Moving this to scraps because it's been totally redone: [link]

I'm submitting this to DA... umm... for the helluvit I guess.

I am, at the very least, happy with myself for finally getting off my arse and reworking this-- the old one wasn't so accurate and was missing stuff. Shoot, I still haven't designed her caster gun... that'll have to find a place on here when I do. XP But at least there's a head turn for her now. She needed one bad, for that evil hair that looks so easy but isn't! XP

I think I'm going to go insane drawing gobs of her in my comic... her design does not exactly lend itself to swift rendering... all those asymetrical elements, wierd angles on clothing and little belties and such... awww crap!! But damnit I luv it so much and have gotten so many nice compliments (especially on her coat, which is a PITA to draw in prespective) I don't want to change anything!! T______T;;; Blarf.

Edit: Oh, for those that don't know the character but want to, her bio (the RPG version at least) is here: [link]

Yeah, both the anatomy and the coat are cool, but I like the dagger!

The faces on the bottom are well done.

Now having read her character sheet I'm inspired to do one for my character Vanessa. I like yours even more now. What was that about a comic?

Wow, this is fricken sweet!!!
I love badass chicks, they are so hot and cool. Oddly the army is chalked full of them and thus far I have been turned down by all of them Hopefully once I get my commision at the end of this year I'll be mor appealing (Who wants to go out with a Cadet right?).)

Oddly, could I sort of "borrow" her clothing designs? As a guy I'm rather bad at coming up with clothing designs for women, so I always draw everyone in armor and stuff. Actually if you'd be interested I'd love to do an exchange with you (What is a PE exchange though, not familiar with the linguo I'm afraid.)

Thank you, I'm glad you like her design. I'd rather you didn't directly use her costume, but there's plenty of other female characters like her. I'm certain that between them all you could draw some inspiration to create your own clothing designs. And there's nothing wrong with armor, that's the part I suck at drawing.

Yeah, I like it. I don’t do mechanical stuff much so I was happy when I came up with this. I wanted it to look sort of tech but sort of fantasy, but I don’t know if I really got it 50/50. It damn complicated thoughβ€”looks cool but is a pain in the ass to draw. I’m gonna have to simplify it for the comic or I’ll go crazy! >.<;;;

Bang-BANG!
I keep trying to draw Jorie, but I think she takes this obscene pleasure in driving me insane with trying and failing. O_o
One day, I shall draw her! I'll pull it off, dammit!

ladyofdragons In reply to rabid-potato [2004-04-05 22:56:03 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, she'd do something like that-- ROFL!

But really, she really can be a PITA to draw. I dunno why. It's not like she's THAT complicated! She gives me fits on occassion too. XP But shoot, I know you can do it, and I can't wait to see it when you do!!

Haha! That's okay, I love the one you did! I'd be thrilled if you wanted to do some fan art of her, she's so new I have so little of it. And it means a lot to me to here that you think she's deserving of it!!

wow this is a great detailed page. I need to do somthing like this for some of my characters lol. Might be nice for the PE too.

Heh, well that's one of the reasons I make them, so all the information about the character is presented in one place for easy reference for anyone drawing the character. I try my best to keep it printable size, but it doesn't -always- happen.

Ehehe, I've never colored calicos before... I really wasn't sure how to go about it and not have her look funny. I'm still not totally convinced but hey, as long as peple get the general idea, it's all good.

This looks way good! Like said before, her anatomy is wonderful. But what I like most about this submission is just the detailed work-out of your own character, including what kind of weapons she uses and expressions and all that kind of things. I really liked it. I'm getting curious to her story as well, so guess I'm heading to there now.

lenihanfighter In reply to lenihanfighter [2004-04-05 06:30:46 +0000 UTC]

Sounds like good thinking. And I guess it helps as well for you to know how your own characters look like. I mean, there's always a difference between when the character's still in your mind and when you actually draw it on paper. The last one is more like a final decision, whereas in your mind, things can still change.

... Right, enough nonsense. Never mind what I just said.

I like model sheets like this, it makes for good reference for other people when doing trades and comissions for me, and is a nice little exersice for me in nailing daown the character design.

Whoaaa she looks awesome! I think the idea is great, as well as all the text and the way you organized the sketches and colored design on the page - it looks really professional and it makes me curious to know her story...

Heehee, thanks! Makes me feel good that I'm not the only one who digs her, haha! Your reply made me think to add a link to her bio in the main post, so go poke it and you -can- read her story if you want!

GOOD anatomy GOOD!

This is most exceptional piece of art that I commented on today. People just don't get the concept of anatomy.

Oh know, it's said. But SO wonderful when you find someone who does. I'm glad you count me in that number, I was afraid I was getting rusty...

Well it's not like there is no room for improvement, but I'm not the kind of person to get into details unless ppl want me to.

You are a very decent artist.

Mmm, thanks. This is had been finished for some time so I'm not likely to make any changes, but I'd still be curious to know what you think. And there -always- room for improvement in anything we do.

Oh, and if it makes a difference to you, there's a bigger, fully colored version of this in my gallery too.
