Professor needs c 'n c

StrangeDude · Sat 02/10/2004 15:48:56

This is a professor I made for an adventure game. Only the head though...

Good - bad?

You need to tone down the orange in the skin. Make it more... fleshy.

Darth Mandarb · Sat 02/10/2004 17:28:14

Why does he only have 1 ear?

Is he not going to have a body in the game?

Do you need help with the body?Ã,Â If yes, have you tried making the body yourself?

Adjust the skin tone (as Zor said).

I might suggest losing the black outlines ...

There is something about those white brows and glasses that somehow distracts me. It looks as if he had two pairs of eyes. Maybe you should make the brows grey just like moustache and hair, and let a bit of the eye be seen through the glasses?

Oh, I'd thought the glasses were just slid down his nose...

Why does his brows have pupils in them? Either remove the black dots from the brows/eyes - whatever they're supposed to be - or the white dots from the glasses.

I think these are eyes above the glasses and a "shining" in the glasses. If I'm right, then people get confused of those so you should do something about that. And give him browse. And if those above are actually browse, then they're too round and don't need these black spots.

Why does he need to adjust the skin tone? Maybe the orange skin is a style he's going for, did you ever think about that?

StrangeDude · Sun 03/10/2004 09:05:33

Well, thanks for the comments everybody! I'll fix his ear ASAP and the other useful tips soon.

Here's his ship...

What'cha think?

Blade · Sun 03/10/2004 14:36:30

Very original. Add colors to it - I think that'll help us to make a judgement.

hahaha

sorry but I'm laughing my ass off in this thread

not because of your art, just the replies make me laugh

make a game with these graphics and I'll definitly play it, can only be fun

StrangeDude · Mon 04/10/2004 14:21:27

Hehe thanks NETGraph. I was worried that you were laughing at my art a sec...

n3tgraph · Wed 06/10/2004 16:20:57

nah why laugh at someones art,

even if I did, I would be polite enough not to post it

Hawkins · Fri 08/10/2004 17:43:28

Ok, just to save my dear friend the "strangedude"s fom being totally skinned.

1. I made that character, my friend here did just post it cos I'm lazy.

2. I know it looks stupid, but A. thats the point and B. I made him just as an experiment, that's why he don't look like something that could actually exist

3. I wondered how long it would actually take before someone noticed his missing ear. The reason was that I was abrupted in the middle of my work and didn't really finish it

4. Yes, im working on the body, but it could take a while to finish it.

I want to thank you for your tips, whitch I'll be taking in concideration.

Ps. Any ideas about how to colorize the ship?

Blade · Fri 08/10/2004 17:51:49

It looks wacky so it should probably be mixed in really weird colours - yellow, light green, pink, orange, something like that.

Eggie · Fri 08/10/2004 18:24:20

Try using less straight lines and elipsis and drawing something with the paint tool. It'll look more expressive...

Hawkins · Sat 09/10/2004 15:55:07

If anyone's intrested, this was my first atempt to make this kind o character, and also I made it in Paint, scince everyone have such much better graphics than me in the critics lounge (and still cals it poor

). I wonder, do you all draw your pictures pixel by pixel or do you have better programs?

Ps. Edit on this guy's coming up soon.

Hawkins · Sun 10/10/2004 16:10:29

Hi, I'm back with my dear prof, although I'm not sure if this pic is gon'na work:

This is what I've changed:
1. I gave him another ear.
2. I gave him a more natural color of his skin.
3. I've changed the eyes a bit (scince they were mistaken for eyebrows)
4. I gave him a mouth (see the lip coming out benieth his mustache)
5. I changed the glimmer in his glasses.
6. I gave him a more visible and sharper chin.
7. I changed the coloring of the moustache and hair (i've cleaned up the moustache a bit and removed the shading of his hair, because it didn't look good)

So what do you think? Myself I think I made him look a litlle like santha, but I don't know...

ps. does anyone know how to gt rid of this stupid sign?

Eigen · Sun 10/10/2004 19:15:08

I made an edit too:

* Removed the black outlining
* Made the glasses more like glasses
* Reshaded the hair (didn't come out very well)
* Shaded the skin a bit
