Title: Still looking like Jack Nicholson? (Warning: contains nudity)!
Post by: Stefano on Sun 05/06/2005 03:28:47
New view of same dwarf. I really like him!
I'm now considering making my first game, as soon as I finish some concept art I'm doing for someone else's game.
I'm afraid is going to be as crapy as my English, as I can't script.  ;D

Very nice style, but there's something about the proportions there that niggle me... From looking at him I get no sense of dwarf, unless of course he's just the most butch dwarf I've ever damn seen ;)

He's about 4 heads tall.
Of course he's a dwarf! :D
(And yes, he still reminds me of Nicholson. :P)

There's something with the right side of the face I don't like. It's too messy. And he still reminds me of Jack Nicholson, even more than before ;).

Offtopic: I bet Jack wouldn't be really flattered of a muscluar (nude) dwarf picture of himself. But that's just my opinion.

Ohhh, man. I loved the last picture of this character, and this new one is sooo much better. I love the way you demonstrate a variety of line widths to convey a sense of weight to your character.

If I really wanted to get picky, the line describing his right collarbone (our left) is broken in the middle. But that crit is me looking closely to find something that isn't perfect.

You could do a whole series of nude dwarfs. If you drew seven, the theme could be the apathy resulting in Snow White's absence. You know, like these guys have nothing to live for, so it's no more "off to work we go" and they don't even dress themselves anymore. Solid gold stuff, Stefano.

[giggle] Jack's hung like a dwarf ... [/giggle]

This is a most excellent style Stefano!

I'd LOVE to see what you could do with some body armour and a big ol' battle axe!!  Do some action scenes with him severing the head off a Ogre or something!!  The style is so solid gold that it makes my imagination flare!

That's a good thing ;)

Amazing, he looks perfect, right shading, colours, proportions, etc. Simply love it. I can't wait to play the game that will have these graphics, keep us posted.  ;)

Much more dwarfy than the other one. Nice.
.......
..........Are you really going to have a naked dwarf in your game?

m0ds: maybe it's because I was going for a RPG look rather than a Achondroplasic one...
Al_Ninio: yes! He IS a dwarf. And unfortunately he still look like Mr. Jack.
Oliver: something messy? Like what? I cannot see it. And HAHAHAHA! You're completely right! The man wouldn't be happy if he saw this. But it is important to remember: it's not Jack Nicholson and I didn't use his picture as a reference.
big brother: oh, yes. I have this little habit to create depth with line widths, because I do some Technical Drawing now and then, as I'm an Architect. I see what you're saying about the collarbone... it was a moment of creative fury and I must have missed it!  ;D I guess you're trying to get me to draw snow white naked!!!! ( ;D hahahaha! Just kidding!) Thank you very much for the "solid gold" compliment.
Darth Mandarb: Aye! It is exactly what I'm doing right now. A animation (walk cycle for starters, as slashing heads off would take a little longer), with a big battle axe and some armor. Tough one... Thank you very much for your flattering words.  ;)
Alias: Thank you! I sure will keep you posted!  :)
TheBrat499: Thanks. I did that Gryphon on "draft" mode (quoting my printer). I'm glad you liked it! Thanks a lot.
Babar: Hum... havent decided yet. But I didn't find any reasons to justify such thing. So: nope. Thanks a lot for your comment, Babar.

Thank you all!
Soon (in one month I guess), I'll post more on "AGS Games in Production" forum.

What would be wrong with a naked dwarf in a RPG? Why do they need to be clothed?  ;)

Who says you can't make a "Seven Naked Dwarves post-Snow White" game?
