Looking for a good artist.....

[Xeno_old]

As the subject implies, I'm looking for a good artist. Of course, this would have to be one that draws just for the fun of it (no money), and one that can draw based off descriptions and creative enough to add whatever they think they should to make it better. If you're interested, here is the person's description below:

Name: Veryn Refirge
Age: 51 Ignussian Years (approx. 39 Earth years)
Race: Ignussian (Humanoid Reptilian)
Hair: None
Eyes: Dark Green
Height: 7' 3"
Weight: 284 lbs.
Alignment: Lawful Neutral (If this helps)
Skin-Color: Red scales/skin
Interests: Martial arts, conjuring, meditation, telepathy
Disinterests: War, fighting
Personality: Fearless, cunning, intelligent, peaceful
*************************
Weapons: Hand to Hand, Quarter Staff, Bo
Armour: Long flowing blue robe w/ hood
Accessories: Insignia Ring (Represents position in his Monastery), Ignussian Necklace (Represents that he has diplomatic immunity)
Goals: Diplomatic interests and perfecting the Ignussian Arts(Martial Arts and Conjuring Arts).

If you need better description, I can create a better one. It would be awesome if I got someone to do this just for fun.

Also, if you liked drawing Veryn, and you'd like to draw more of my characters, tell me and I'll post more character descriptions here.

Heh, well, if there's anyone who'll take up Xeno, any artists who can do the same sorta thing? I ned someone to draw summut for me.

[Ducky]

I suck at things like that but I'd like to do it just for fun as a change of pace from my own chars.
*since Tyffie won't give me her profiiiile*

[Xeno_old]

Sure Ducky, practice makes perfect (Except in my case, it's hopeless.).

Also, I forgot to mention that his tail hangs out from the bottom of his robe.

[Ducky]

Lookieee. I scratched him out this afternoon. Just a freaky mousey sketch.(As you can see I took a lot of liberties and left out a lot of details. Sorry.)

[Xeno_old]

Awesome pic. :)

The only thing that bothered me was that the staff looks a bit wizardy. Of course, it is entirely your drawing, too. :D

[Ducky]

(Liberties, Xenoo ;) )

I was working on the staff and I just kept going. I got a little carried away, i guess. Also I had no idea what half the things you said meant, lol.

Might I ask, what did you want the artist for?

[Xeno_old]

Well, I'm very frustrated with my characters. I have a great, artistic mind, I juat don't have the talent to transfer from mind to paper/computer. I wish to share my characters with the world, in some shape or form. Since I can't draw, I've been trying to years to get someone else to draw them. This is the first time someone actually responded, heh.

My coolest character, Grub, may as well be one of the hardest to convey from my mind. I also can't explain character appearance very well also.

Also, I know about the liberties....I was just stating that, that's all. Here's a description of Grub:

Name: Grub
Age: 4
Gender: Male
Race: Organic (Labratory Creation)
Hieght: 11' 7"
Wieght: 591 lbs.
Birthplace: Trisol
Interests: His Club, His Home, Cute Animals, Serene Scenery
Disinterests: Complexity, Not Nice People
Personality: Dumb, Nice, Friendly, Gentle
Appearance: Centaur-like body, hairless, dark green to olive green skin, warty, has a third arm on his back(around where the saddle of a horse would be), the third arm's elbow faces to his hind-side, allowing his third hand to palm his head(his normal stance has his third hand on his head), small beady eyes with a bright red eye color, normally carries his spiked club with his right hand

Other Information: Lives in an abandoned cave along a road, Grub was artificially created in Xervuis' lab and was to be exterminated for being a failed experiment. He escaped Xervius' lab and took over the abandoned cave. He is very simple, very naturistic, and hates loud noises. He is always trying to look for companionship, but everyone avoids him because of his grotesque (and very intimitating) physique. He does not like to hurt anything, but his child-like mind cannot comprehend the damage he always seems to cause. His tremendous strength has allowed him to make a very crude but efficient giant spiked club.

This is but the surface of a very immersive universe that I've been creating since 2 years ago. The universe itslef hasn't evolved much, but the races inhabiting it are very immersive and interesting (IMO anyhow).

[Shorty]

That's a pretty good description...I think I have an idea. I will try, but I wouldn't rely on me. It will take me....weeks. Hehe.

[GuMmYBeAr!]

ooooH duckaaAH! gret pictare! n.n




i cant draw. u.u i cant.
i'll make up a pwofile.. sometiiiiime..

[Kaz]

Very good drawing and character Xeno.

Just don't abuse ducky like some software =P

[Ducky]

dude, I just realized I didn't pay much attention to the details at all... I gave him a cloaky thing instead.. heeh...andd..


*pokes tyf* you can TWO. You draw great ;P

Well I like drawing things for other people better, so I'll see what I can do. I've been slacking off anyway. I'll probably try your second guy cause he's got such a groovy appearance.
*needs to draw something spiffy for Cobra too*

[JJ BBoy KS]

Cool picture, Ducky. :cool:

[~SPLASH~]

Would love to draw it and show it...but my scanner still isn't working! *RHAAAR!*

I'll draw it anyway and save it..

[Ducky]

(he's a li'l more finished here (http://www.side7.com/cgi-bin/S7SDB/DisplayImg.pl?INO=98584).)


Umm.

I had a question, I think, but now I can't remember it.
Also, is Grub's third arm the same size as his usual ones?

[Xeno_old]

Yes, his third arm is the same size and proportion as his other arms. It's just growing out of his back, heh.

Also, nice finished Veryn pic, Ducky.:)

And Kaz, I'm just happy that anyone would draw my characters, so I take what I can get. :D

The rest of my characters aren't as thought out as these two (These being my prime characters to develop). The only other one remotely close is Xervius (Necromancer Samurai of a sort) or Strip(Ninja and comic relief). My other characters (In order of development):
Strip Kyat
Xervius
Gregory Vercoln (Sir Vercoln)
Chris Faringhar (Not named after myself)
Remsal Xez
Sinitri Reinsa
Dyon Byum
Sara Fillmore
Kaela Williams
Farah Yryn
Jarah Yryn

[Ducky]

I say, Xeno, he's essentially a centaur, right, so what colour is his horse-half?

(If he's NOT a centaur, which is what I took, so sorry :) I now have a half-finished picture of a centaur with three arms ^_^)

`Duckay

[Xeno_old]

I meant that he had the shape of a centaur. I also said that he was dark green to olive green in color.

Also, he is supposed to be very grotesque and ugly. He is also very strong and muscular (Hence his weight). He also has a very large build.

[Ducky]

Um...


HEEHEE.

*runs away*

Ok. Thank you.

[Kaven]

Looks like my character Cromus, except he's got no staff and robe.

This is wierd. I'm seeing characters that resemble other people's characters. Is... *gasp* The community of Jazz2 repeating itself? That must mean that eventually this site will... *eeep!*

Hehe. Anyway, I'd draw your character, Xeno, but I once drew other people's characters before. I stopped that for two reasons: Too many requests, and the fear of that person claiming the art as their own.

But it is fun to draw other people's characters because it's challenging and helps you practice with new styles. That's why I rely on DrJones or Cobra to give me something to draw now when my creative imagination isn't working. :D

Anyway, really cool pic, Ducky. :D

[Xeno_old]

Kaven, if I claimed an artwork as mine, people would just LAUGH at me. Heh. ;)
