I know but it's not exactly the same.  

Now the forward view sucks, I just can't seem to get it right, it looks to blocky, and the head and hat look like crap too.

I've gotten better at drawing backgrounds, but drawing characters, I just have a hard time with it.

I just need a little help, even if it's just a outline that would be great.

Eric's tutorials are the bomb.    Here's a link to his site.

You can find more links to tutorials here.

Yes, you did, and I thank you for that.

Here's how it is.  

I recently did a fresh install on my computer, and I forgot to backup the folder with my game files, I lost everything, backgrounds, characters, notes, gone all gone.  Poof.  :'(

Oh it get's worse.

I moved back in march, and some how I seem to be missing a box which contain's my old backup cd's. They must have gotten sucked into a magic vortex or something, because I can't find them.

You know that saying "If it weren't for bad luck I wouldn't have any luck at all", well I starting to believe it.  

So I'm starting my project over from scratch.  I'm determined to finish it, I just need a little help now and then.

Hey Guys,

I need some help drawing a forward view for my character. I've been trying all day to no success. :'(   I learn best from example.

My character is wearing a camouflage baseball hat that's backwards, an army field jacket, a pair of jean, and military type boots.

I will be very greatful for any help on this.

Here's my character

Dumpster Tom

Okay thanks guys.

You've all been a great help.  

I'm going to put the finishing touches to this background and then I wll start the next one.

Thanks for the help.

Dumpster Tom

Here's the first version.




Here's the latest version.



Does it look better now?

Dumpster Tom

Okay I see what your saying now.

let me fix it up a little and I post the results.

Thanks, you guys have been very helpfull.  

Dumpster Tom

Please explain what you mean about the boxes perspective? or if you can show me what you mean.

Dumpster Tom

Okay I will shorten the street lines.

I think I'm just going to get rid of the puddle. It's not important to the game or the scene.

Do you think I should add any thing to the scene or does it look good the way it is?

Thanks.

Dumpster Tom

Okay. Good points.

Take a look at the background now. Does it look better?

I might get rid of the puddle.

Dumpster Tom

Hey everybody,

Take a look at this background I did and tell me what you think.

I'm pretty happy with it, but it look like it needs something else, I'm just not sure what.  

Well....let me know what you guys think.

WoW!!! That's great. I wish I could draw like that.

It has that Sierra vga feel to it.
