Hybrid's new art thread...because I can!

[Justin]

Your sense of perspective is kinda awkward, man. A bunch of angles sorta contradict one another.

[Hybrid]

on the robot? Im sure there's a few details that seem off since Im not used to low perspective shots. I must have drawn those "arms" 3 times.

[bonesquad]

I still say the one on the right is attacking... maybe you can use Naruto as inspiration for backgrounds.

[Hybrid]

god damn you...


well i guess they're both attacking, but the one on the left is jumping in.

[Hybrid]

So I drew this character and I don't know what I think. I sort of like it when I zoom in to it's original full size, but as it stands, ehhh. I changed a lot about this character since the original drawing. If you click the link below, you can click to the right of the image and see the original drawing I did months ago. Oh and in case you want to make a comment about her looking like a slut, she's a villian and every good game needs at least one slutty looking female villain.

My first thought was, she's way too insecure about herself to scare anyone. Some villain that is. I then clicked over to the right, I like that version a lot more. Go with that one.

Listening to Bramble Blast while perusing the images is a nice touch.

[Hybrid]

yeah shes supposed to look like the typical insecure female character but after beating her 2 brothers, you find out shes actually the leader. I also wanted to try a different skin color but I'm not sure it worked for this character. I don't really like the newer drawing but I can at least say that it is DRAWN better. Metal weapons are hard

There are also 6 other songs to choose from...

[bonesquad]

Why are you bothering to beat up her two brothers? She's not worth the effort... I have enough insecurities of my own. I don't need a girl in my life who just brings more of that to the table.


When one of seven songs is Bramble Blast, I'll sadly never hear the other six...

[Hybrid]

Look, this family of jerks is in your way and you have to take them ALL down to move on. I'm currently working on a piece with all three of them and she definately looks better now. Originally I was just going to draw the 2 brothers but that last drawing just bothered me so damn much that I had to throw her in it.

Bramble Blast is definately the best song of the bunch, but there is also PSO lobby music...

[Hybrid]

I drew her again. This time she's in the background with her brothers in front. I probably could have worked on the background some more but I really just wanted a character study and this ALWAYS HAPPENS. Comments would be swell.

Hmm. I'm not sure the look on the face of the girl or the blue haired freak make sense. The girl looks like she's shocked she just stabbed herself with that giant sickle of hers, and the guy seems to be thinking, "Oh god. Did I leave the stove on?"

The fireman looks about right, though his right hand looks a bit burnt off...

The actual character design looks cool, and despite what you seem to imply I think the background works quite well. It's very colorful with the classic fire, ice, grass motif.

[Hybrid]

It's just that the characters look crisp with outlines and the backgrounds are sloppy and more "painterly." Your thoughts on what the characters are thinking are spot on. I always have trouble drawing faces that are looking up.

[Hybrid]

another comparison.

Click to the right of the image for the same character I drew 2 months ago. I'd like to know what you think.

[bonesquad]

I like his sword, and the fact he wants to kill things so readily. Not so sure about his stretchy, fabric mask. Is he afraid to show his true identity? We all know who he really is...

[Hybrid]

who?





zoro?


The mask definately looks odd.
