I can see that he is quite experienced by judging the armor that he is carrying around. He have an eye patch that might signify as a pirate attribute. Quite interesting indeed. I like the small symbol on the back, and the design are very well done! Keep it up. ^^

Ah yes, the single-shoulderpad with spikes. I enjoy those, gives a feeling of tough-ness. I like armor design, but I'm not all that great at it.

Oh...
You silly people and your texture files... I never figured that out. I just suffer and try to do texture manually...
doing grass makes me cry...

It's not that hard, actually, though I suppose it depends on what program you use as well...
In photoshop, I just create a new layer over the one I'm putting the texture on, and check 'create clipping mask' to keep it on the designated layer without running over. From there, you just switch the blending options to make it look like the texture part of the colored segment rather than just being pasted over it... plus, if you want, you can always use the transform tool to morph the texture layer to make it better match the contours of the colored layer.
... hmmm... it's easier to do than to explain... I'll try to do a step-by-step thing to show you if you want? D: I'm working on a piece that requires texturing, so I should be able to finish it in the next week or two.

Ah, I see, clipping masks... so rarely use them outside of school...
I don't want to sound like a jerk, but want to watch each other? I really like talking to you about these things. You're really good.

I like all things Zelda, but I love my Twili OC. He's the only real OC I'll ever use. I'll eventually make a comic about him in Twilight Princess. It'll be sort of Fanfic, but he really doesn't change the events of Twilight Princess any. For example, one page might tell what's happening to him and another will show what's going on with canon characters at the time. I'd like to take the opportunity to give a little more life to side-characters.

Yup. I have to admit though, I take a lot of my character ideas from Warcraft lore and other games... yet I try to make it Zelda themed.

Yea, it's great to see what happens when you put a Zelda Theme with different concepts.

Well, the eyepatch is mostly there to make people aware of his handicap. The person who struck him was well aware of his handicap when the incident occured, so imagine what would happen if people weren't aware of it. So he wears the eyepatch simply to make people realize 'oh wait, that eye prolly doesn't work', as opposed to someone like, say, Zaraki Kenpachi, who uses it as a limiter. I've got a few characters who are missing/covering eyes (it's always on the same side, but there's a reason for that), but I'm trying to mix it up a bit as for how they cover it up.

...I'm so glad I know who Kenpachi is... XD Quite interesting how you have a reason for them all missing eyes on the same side, and it's good that you're mixing it up. >> It would get kinda stale if they all covered the eye the same way

XD Well, I SERIOUSLY can't draw. I think I have something in my scraps that was an attempt at drawing that failed horribly XD I think I'll probably stick with writing and such

I know, some kinda mental conditioning thing. Just learned about it today in general psychology actually... although I kinda think it's already taken root.
>> Hey, nothin wrong with hyper moods... I know how it is to want to get a depressed thought or two out of your head. I struggled with that a lot lately.

Aaah, I see, I see... Well, I say I can't draw but I can at least write some rockin' stuff. I mean, I finished a 30 chapter Zelda fanfic. >> Now if I could just get people to READ it XD
Yeah, they do stink -_- And geeze, I think I know how you feel and can sympathize with it. A buddy of mine, has some pretty random stuff... XD Like his satire of American history. He IMs me in the middle of Left 4 Dead talking about a Flinstones version of the game that is called Left 4 Fred... I busted out laughing so hard I got pounced by a Hunter XD

I know that I SHOULD move on to doing stuff like that... but I kinda like my fanfics too much to do so yet XD I am working on original plotline stuff though. Trying to. It's very hard XD
I think I read about it... I've never played MKW >> So I don't know how the online play is for it XD
