Description ahhh well a bit of embarrassment here (for numerous reasons-most of which ill touch on ). first off topic of outcast dsc was rachel summers not jean grey phoenix(realized this after hair was drawn). so we have rachel summers long hair version , tried to catch it up a bit with profile shot. now onto other issues-odd face(damn you upnoses ). this angle proved mind bending . onward...the struggle continues .

Even with the facial tattoos...

Very, very well done. I have issues with upturned noses as well, but you did an amazing job capturing it. She looks far more menacing when drawn by your hand. Well, in my opinion I might be biased, however.

Very well done... As your work (I'm quickly learning) always is.

much appreciated ...upnose shot is my current devil -amongst other things(hands,perspective...). rachel is just a badass character and of course her costume is ridiculously cool.

Yeah. I think all artists have issues with those two things at one time or another. I actually just take a picture of my hand (or whoever is available) in odd positions and use it as a reference. If I don't have a photo reference, I end up drawing sausage fingers of doom.

About her costume? Oh, completely agreed.

thanks so much...feel just a bit dissapointed with this one-really felt super close on the up angle face-like i could have gotten it right with just another line or two. still pleased with overall sketch .

wow she looks evil as hell great job on her, you even got her face tattos, something that she lost in the comics

Selkirk In reply to Elfsofdeath [2010-03-04 20:07:19 +0000 UTC]

much appreciated...wish i had remembered her tattoos a bit earlier in sketch -ended up at the end adding them. you know i had honestly forgotten about her as a character-she is great visually...her costume is superb.

Elfsofdeath In reply to Selkirk [2010-03-04 20:11:36 +0000 UTC]

love her old excalibur custom and look ^-^ and i think the arist have forgotten about those tattos are can't be bothered drawing them, they just say she can hide them

Selkirk In reply to Elfsofdeath [2010-03-04 20:24:17 +0000 UTC]

yeah it is a bit confusing...im with you completely on this with the tattoos. i would want to draw them if i was the artist...not trying to hide them. that look with the all red spiky costume and spiky hair with tattoos-definitely is wheelhouse for me .

Elfsofdeath In reply to Selkirk [2010-03-04 20:35:32 +0000 UTC]

yeah it like she had them then they where gone, and i totlay draw her with them if i drew her, i mean she had that stupid tatto on her back, she could hide it with her old custom ^-^

Selkirk In reply to Elfsofdeath [2010-03-04 22:36:07 +0000 UTC]

honestly had a bit of the same blah reaction to the new(wears jeans, has a tattoo on her back...i guess she is supposed to look 'modern') rachel summers as i did to the new satana(thinking here of witches series). honestly with rachel and satana the original costumes and concepts are so good no update is needed.

Elfsofdeath In reply to Selkirk [2010-03-05 13:59:31 +0000 UTC]

have you satana in the hood, omg i was yelling at the comics that day, the onlu person to draw her good in the moden age was the guy who did legion of monsters ^-^ and i agree with the stament, they think the characters need updating when they dont

And yet, doesn't look that bad.
Everything we do,you demonstrated here from doing not easy angles/poses, to jus sketching it out there, and not thinking too much on it. The idea is to get it done for the day so you're warmed up an ready to draw more(if necessary)

Selkirk In reply to jorzac [2010-03-04 20:05:45 +0000 UTC]

thanks much bro for the kind words...definitely in agreement here-love outcast for the reasons you mentioned above. definitely trying to go for poses/angles...if they work out great if not then it will be better the next time.
