It's been years since I've done any kind of character design, be it creating new characters or changing the look of my existing one. I thought I was long overdue.

Anyway, I decided to create this character. Don't worry, she's not a replacement for STP...she's an additional character. Anyway, I figure I should tell you a bit about her.

Her name is Renovatia the Hedgehog, or Reena for short. She has a twin brother named Renovatio (Ren), which looks like a male version of her. Both of their names mean "rebirth" in Latin, a reference to the fact that this is at least a temporary rebirth of designing characters. They are STP's cousins on his mother's side.

While she's got a figure that some might find attractive, she isn't the type of girl to strut her stuff, preferring to wear a simple T-shirt with faded capris and simple leather shoes. She also wears a pendant around her neck that she considers to be her good-luck charm.

She's very quiet and reserved around people she doesn't know, making it hard for her to reach out and make friends. But in the company of friends, she's a lot more sociable and friendly. She loves playing practical jokes on people as long as no one gets hurt. She's also a spiritual person and can be found reading her Bible regularly. She's also got quite a voice on her (to Ren's resentment sometimes ) and she puts it to good use in her church choir.

I'm not sure where I'll use this character yet, if anywhere. I haven't thought that far ahead. It'd be nice if I had some sprites of her, but I can't sprite at all.

=====================================

Credit goes to ~chriserony for making the character maker that allowed me to build this character's appearance from scratch. The character's name came to me several days before the fact.

Remember that for both this picture and my other characters Erizo and Tiberius, I didn't draw these pictures myself -- I used character creators to piece them together. Β But if your comments refer to the character designs themselves, thank you.

Thanks. I wanted to create a character that was cute, but not so cute that people overlook her personality.

I actually did not draw this picture; I assembled her appearance using the Sonic Charrie Maker. I do take credit for making the image larger than normal, and the custom background.

Thanks. Just to let you know, I did not actually draw the picture you see...I created the character using a character creator. But I do take credit for the custom background.

In case I didn't explain it in the description, I did not draw this at all. I merely constructed her using the Sonic Charrie Maker. I can take credit, however, for the custom background, which did not appear in the creator.

All the same ^^ Does it matter how you made it? You made it, which is enough for me Hey, most of my pictures I have to look at, line art, then color. If I draw something on my own, like so [link] I mean, look at Judai! He looks like crap! And Haruhi...Ugh...

But all the same...The background is epic too ^^

As I said on the other picture, the expression and position are classic! Cool picture background too. I like this!

Two things which you can give me credit for in this picture: the background, which I made myself, and the fact that the picture is larger than what can be captured in a single screenshot (I zoomed in and took multiple pictures, piecing them together.)

Okay : ) Great Background! I will comment another one.

She has quite the bio
Nice

I believe in developing a detailed bio for all the characters I create, so that they're not just pretty faces. Granted, my characters don't appear in my art because I don't feel confident enough to draw them, but by developing them to this depth, it tells others what kind of personalities I like to give my characters.

Thank you. As a reminder, I didn't draw this, I made it with ~chriserony 's Sonic Charrie Maker.

But what about her do you like? Her appearance? Her personality?

I'm glad you think so. I agree. I was looking to create a female character that looked attractive without looking slutty, which I can't stand.

GodsSonicGirl In reply to mjponso [2010-01-18 20:29:34 +0000 UTC]

blaa, i can't stand the slutty looking FCs either. Rouge might have been the reason why people think it's ok to make other charactes like that. really though, if someone's going to make a likable girl character, they need to make her unique and give her a better purpose than being (dare i say it) a mary-sue

Just so you know, I didn't actually draw this. I constructed Reena's appearance with ~chriserony 's Sonic Charrie Maker. I do take credit, however, for assembling (in pieces) a large-size screenshot of the character, as well as the background for the picture.

I used the Sonic Charrie Maker ([link] ) to construct the look of the character itself. I added the background in Photoshop.

More work went into this than what appears on the surface. After assembling the look of the character with the character creator, I zoomed in on the picture, took screenshots in parts, and assembled the parts into a complete picture in Photoshop, which is why the image is larger than the character creator it came from. Also, I used a plain background in the character creator, which made it easy to erase and substitute a background of my own. I created something that I thought suited the character's appearance.
