Happy Heart Day!

Loving ur character PPD, are we gonna see some animation sometime?

Thanks! 
Soonish!



AlcopopStar:
Great character sketch. 
Super appealing.

32:
Dope mockup.

Dennis:
 
So much like real life. 

PsylentKnight:
Scary man. 
Very odd and creative design.

Laying down some lines.
The challenge is to not use references.



EDIT:
Damn Cyangmou got me second guessing my poses now. 
Trying to push things a bit, make it more interesting. Still no references. From my first month here, I've been working on my female figure studies, really think they are coming together. Though I've never talked with Ellian, he was my inspiration for studying woman. Thanks man!

EDIT:
Last edit for tonight, cleaning up lines...Dunno what to do with left arm/hard.

Somewhere along the way her hips got bigger, and not in a good way.

Check it out over at pixeljoint 

It fell off the front so had to do some digging to find it. That water is something else I tell ya.
I was about to post references for the female figures but that would have ruined your challenge  Nice job, I can't do anatomy for shit even with references lol

Also, interesting to see PPD's design choices. A lot of talk is about composition and technique, though I particularly do enjoy design.

I swear I'd made that clickable haha, wasn't meant to be a chore to find. Woops

Actually looks like the [ url] [ img][ /img][ /url] works in the preview but not when posted?

Edit: Oh yeah I guess it's cause of the click zoom. I always forget we have that.

Holiday tomorrow so no school. I also have mt.dew and Doritos some i'm good to pixel well into the night!

@Yaomon
I think tomorrow I'll ask for and look up references myself. I see things that are wrong, and it is a struggle to fix them, but I think overall the exercise is helping me think more critically to find solutions. A lot of going back over to find what works too. That being said another edit:


I brought her heel down to ground her more to the floor, trying for a heavy mid-run look.
Reduced her hips significantly, also trying to add in a hint of hipbone in there. Still need further refinement, it is remarkably hard to pixel nice curving hips.
Also made her head length and width smaller by a pixel, reduced the shoulder size and brought that whole group down a bit.

A question though, do ya'll like the head looking at the viewers left side of the screen(current revision), or the head looking to the viewers right side(previous revisions)? Leaning towards the left myself.

EDIT:
Messing around with flats. Just kinda happened upon "Scarlet Pool". Oh well, i'll role with it for awhile.

Looks a bit like one of the punks from Final Fight.

My guess would be Shatterhand.
Did I win?

I missed it.

Actually I don't make any of the final choices for this character.
That's why I'm providing a labeled sheet with variations for the dude to choose from.
But honestly I like the same type of process for personal use.
Comparison is really the only way I get anything done.

Stuff for the day:
