WOW this is incredible!!! I can see why it is your best tribute! What was your trick to figuring out how to make them have their own unique avatars?

Ah thank you ^_^
Well, those characters really aren't avatars.
I just looked through their gallery, and looked for one of their own original characters to draw.
For example... has two OC's, and i just decided to draw Chizuko. ^_^

Did you try asking that commenter to elaborate? But some people will complain just for the sake of complaining, so don't get bogged down in it- you succeeded massively in what you sought out to do with this. You didn't do this to please every person on the planet, you just wanted to pay a cool tribute to some of your friends, right?
I'm lovin' the rendition of Terra. Now that I see you draw her, I realize how simple of a design she had all along, but she looks great with the marker-style coloring. The way you drew her, she's clean and uncomplicated. (Maybe my old Terra design was more like Megaman, and her new look is more like Megaman X. . . )
Other than Terra, obviously, my favorite characters here are Aqua and Fuuchou. Their darker colors help balance out the rest of the picture, and prevent the varied cast from looking like "too much." Fuuchou looks like he approves of his placement, with a bevy of busty ladies to the left and to the right.

ahaha... yeah.. you're right. You're always right about these things...
"You didn't do this to please every person on the planet, you just wanted to pay a cool tribute to some of your friends, right? "Yes, I couldn't have said it any better.
Im very glad you like my drawing of Terra and that I helped shed some light on her design. ^_^
Ahaha thanks. The placement of most of the characters were mostly random. But you know, sometimes things just work out so well in the end, lol. XD
Yeah i needed a guy in it, - I thought of Fuuchou in that instant.. ^_^

there are some people who exist to be totally blunt
and they're really really hard to please
sometimes even professionals don't please 'em
so don't worry about that.
I don't know the original styles nor any of the characters but I think it's nice o3o so!

*o* oh man I love the colouring, I absolutely adore Aria in pink! I haven't even thought about using pink... but this is proof that it's an awesome combination.
..it also doesn't help I didn't give her a whole lot of clothes before.. lol.
It's a real shame you lost the high-res lineart... I'll have a look and see if I have it myself. ^^
As for the eyes, I think you just need some light blue shading along the inside of the eyelids.
Awesome work Tom :3

Woah, really cool! x3
I always love group picture, you did a nice job on this one!
Don't worry about "bad comment", people don't really know always how to make it "constructive". ^^
Anyway, I think it's really cool to see a lot of different style-character here x3

Fuuchou's surruonded by ladies! XD Awesome work with all these characters! Your effort shows through and this needs much praise! :3
Don't be so discouraged about what one person says. All these characters in one page will be adored by all who own them and others who see your contributions.

Hey - I have questions about Fuuchou.
What kind of abilities does he have?
Is he more like a tenchu shinobi or like a naruto shinobi?
Can he use kage-bushin?
I need to know this for the next drawing im doing... hehehehe XD

smilingturtle In reply to buuzen [2008-10-15 05:30:32 +0000 UTC]
Ok thanks alot!! This'll come in handy!
Oh, and so.. since he uses earth based ninjutsu- would it be possible that he can create clones of himself with dirt or something right...?

buuzen In reply to smilingturtle [2008-10-15 05:52:35 +0000 UTC]
i think i want to the veto the earth element from him. For bunshins he'd use shikigami. Folded pieces of sutras that can mimic forms.

So lying and telling her that I love it wouldn't be mean?
