Oh boy, I have a bad feeling about this place... the game isn't out yet, and I got lured in by CR... and I was just thinking of drawing some COH last week. But now I will have to change that to COT... Those main characters look fun... is there a page where the concept art is shown?
Anyway, for those who knew me, and who don't know me... my COH main was a cross between Superman & Spider Woman. Thus the iconic costume of red, yellow, and black... I used to do a lot of art for the COH community, even some commissions in my earlier hayday... alas I don't do those anymore for 2 reasons, time and sleep, both of which I have none of... well to spare.
But I used to love looking at character concepts and taking a stab at them... so this thread is for that type of art.
PLEASE NO REQUESTS.
2nd EDIT: ( for personal reasons, I will only do 1 piece per person... this is at my discretion, and does not include the sketch stage, which I don't count, and in that capacity I will also limit myself... but overall I do this to prevent burn out... hopefully everyone understands... )
If I gift you with something, it'll be because I couldn't help myself, and for no other reason than I had to draw...
Anyway you can call me LJ, or you can call me Bobby... It's so great to think our game has a future, I can't wait to play it.
Cheers all!
LJ

DD looks awesome bud!
Thanks everyone... okay Ghost Hack... well here's my preliminary sketch... it might be a bit more patriotic then you had in mind. lol... more to come later, gotta make dinner...
[img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/75791103/COT/sketch.jpg[/img]
hmmm... I'm looking at it again now and not loving it... You might need to give me more feedback... the facial references you suggested would barely be seen in that mask and cowl... what about a cowl down, mask in the hair look... give me a couple of hours to do another sketch... cya later.
K here's my second attempt at this... looked at some Iron Man covers... should I proceed?
If you don't comment by tonight, I'm just gonna go ahead and finish this one up...
[img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/75791103/COT/sketch%202.jpg[/img]
Hahah, oh, wow, I'm sorry, I suck.
those are actually both pretty cool. I agree, something seems 'off' with the first one (is the neck too long?)
The ironman one looks really good..... but Orion doesn't exactly shoot 'blasts'.... he's a melee guy (think more like...uh.... captain falcon, from smash bros?.... actually I literally envision him fighting a lot like Nova from UMvC3: http://youtu.be/wwWzxzbb4Kc)
and the "collar" i was trying to draw... was supposed to be sort of like her collar:
not so much an armored collar to protect the neck....
I really like the current cowl-up look, but if you think cowl-down would look better, go for it....
if you need some other info or reference stuff, let me know.. i know where to look now :P

Yeah don't get hung up on the proportions, all that gets fixed once you say go. I would never give you a long necked character, that was a 20 minute thumbnail sketch, so it was meant more for mood and placement. Details like proportion, color, expression those get refined as I work, but I would never give you a tight tight thumbnail sketch... there's no reason to work that hard, so early in the game... also this is free. I would charge you an arm and a leg if you were a client asking for tight finishes to begin with... not that I would ever show a paying client something this rough. Just saying time and place...
Anyway, okay so the more I hear about him, I will look for another approach. I liked the Iron Man, but you can't really see this collar you invested in... no pun intended. I think it's one of the cooler elements about him. Okay so gonna look at some Captain Marvels and Supermans... uh sorry I've never played UMvsCap3... I will look for some Nova footage though. As to the cowl down, I have an idea... I might crop the top so his hair can show through... if this is a cowl, no sense in keeping his head smooth, is it for aero dynamics? Or secrecy?
With his hair showing, it might look more like the actors you chose.
However if the head was preventative, say lined with kevlar, then I would keep the smooth cowl over all.
Question: Would his eyes show through the mask part? Or did you want the classic white eyes of Batman, Flash, GL...

Re: Eyes... totally not sure... ive swung back and forth...
As for Nova in UMvC3... imagine super fast "quick" attacks, with like flaming punch and kick slow/powerful attacks. He always seems to be dashing or jumping only to strike with raw and awesome power (I clipped in a basic video... there's also a web show called "assist me!" that shows off his basic moves..)
I'm not too worried about him look exactly like the models... it's more about the "vibe"... it's not Superman quality "square-jaw-ness".... more like batman's toughness.... UNTIL he smiles, then all of a sudden he looks like your best friend or big brother or whatever. so those actors I thought has that sort of dual quality... a young looking gruffy/angry batman type who looks like a big puppy dog when he's smiling.
I'm really not sure about a mask up or mask down vibe..... I guess run one through the mill with the hood down, and see... but I had it on, originally, because it feels more... I don't know, pulpy or classic.... and In World, Orion is a hometown guy, and want's a normal life....
Also, I sort of worry about having the exposed-hair mask making him look TOO much like Booster Gold.
FYI... the stars on the ironman sketches look AWESOME. I really want to keep that look of "barely contained energy" moving forward :D
___________________________________
[i]....Fly me to the moon and let me play among the stars...[/i]
Ah k, well I can do one with eyes, and one without... I checked out the Nova footage, so I have a better understanding about movement and an idea for a new pose. I'm just gonna go ahead and do one from start to finish. I don't usually discuss my process anymore, and this isn't a commission. This kind of stuff I would reserve for a client mostly. As much as I'd like to get it right, this kind of thing could go one forever... so I'm just gonna bust one out. See ya tomorow... I'll keep the original cowl.
Oh, yeah! sorry if it sounded nitpicky at all... just trying to be thurough, cause you asked. (honestly, if you's handed me either of your first two, i still would have been super psyched ;P)
___________________________________
[i]....Fly me to the moon and let me play among the stars...[/i]
No I get it, you are the creator, so normally I would want it to be the best it could be... but I fear if I don't strike while the iron is hot, I may lose interest, and I want you to have something done while my vibe for it is on a high. One of my main problems when I was doing commissions is taking on too many jobs. I would love doing the first 3, then the 4th one started to feel like a mountain... and sometimes I've had a dozen in the column. One of the reasons I agreed to come back to a forum like this, was to do more superhero stuff that has always inspired me. And to apply any new things I've learned over the years to new work.
I really liked your concept from the get go, so I am glad we have talked more and more about him. But now I think I am finally ready to work start to finish...
I hope you like the final.
Well, seeing everything else you've done... and picking your brain a bit. I'm not worried in the slightest.
As a writer with almost no art skill (i can compose some graphic design pieces, and such) there's always this desperate need to see my ideas captured visually....and this will be the first true iteration of a brand new character.
I'm Excited! :D

[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]As an artist I totally get the whole "too much pressure" thing with commissions and requests.

Each layer (of the 5 behind the main) goes down in opacity by about 15pts, and then the whole thing is flatten to 1 layer, and blurred with motion blur...

Awesome as always, Bobby!
Hope you don't mind GH, but this is what I originally had in my head, when first looking at all the reference you gave me...
[img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/75791103/COT/GH%202.jpg[/img]
Thanks everyone... this one only took 3hrs, cause I was going for a quick mood... sorry about the roughness, I don't have time to finish, gotta plan and execute a quick dinner for some close friends tonight... have a great weekend all!
hah! that's also super cool!
i think in my head, i was picturing something more like the first, but if you'd come up with this, i would have been just as ecstatic :D
(in all honesty, the 'final' version of the costume will likely draw from both of these images. i like the collar and slanted 'coat' look better on this second image, I think.... but losing the tassle shoulder bits and buckles, so i can have a smoother chest and the shoulder stars and superhero gloves of the original. You totally saw both sides of the character, my friend.... Grazie Mille!!

Not at all, earlier in the day when I was still in the grey scale zone... I had the shoulders as the original, as well as the gloves.... but it was missing something to me... which is why I went without the cowl... but this is your character, I just wanted to play around with what I was inspired to do when first reading your description, this is my earliest reaction to that.
By the way nice logo on the lettering, it reminds me that I need more fonts... but fonts are one of photoshops main flaws. I used to have tons, but they slowed up my system, cause everytime I started it, it had to load every single font... especially if you have preview set to show.
I love fonts... alas by the time I was done with your piece, I was too brain dead to think of designing a better logo. i see now I shouldn't of worried about that... looking forward to your hybrid.
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Woah, I'm so amazed at what you can do in only 3 hours!
Not finished you say? Well... if both you and GH approve, maybe put it up in [url=http://cityoftitans.com/forum/collab-central]Collab Central[/url] and see if another artist might have a go at it? Just a thought there [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Wink.png[/img] Afterall, collabs can turn out to be pretty awesome! *points at her avatar*[/color][/b][/size][/font]

yeah, i love fonts too.... they're actually half the reason i'm any good with photoshop. I've been making forum sig-pix for like two decades, and most reciently, was able to fabricate all the 'stationary' for my wedding (invites, response cards, programs, etc) from scratch...
the crazy thing, is that i think you capured something different, and perfect, with each picture.... like two different dimensions of the same character. my mashup won't be stellar, but i think it is shaping up fairly well, so far. i'll post it in here, later today, if you don't mind....
or in dee's mashup thread (not sure if my ackward fumblings really count as a colab :-/)

Like Miss DeeDee said, I have served as the practice model for lots of artists, and praticing a lot helps to develop better technical skill! As such, I am only TOO happy to continue being the Unofficial Official Spokesmodel for the Artz Forums!
(*strikes an heroic pose*) "Your thanks (and artz) is reward enough, Citizen!"

The word you're looking for is "aubergine" ;P

Word on the street is that Bobby exceeded his awesomeness quotient for the week and won't be allowed to post until the level of awesome in the forums returns to safe levels...
....but he wanted me to post this, because it freaking rocks. (which he drew, because he also freaking rocks)

Thanks GH... I kept getting this weird error, till my seconds total for time out was 2,592,005... that's like 30 days?
Hope you like the changes, I suddenly remembered I had an armor texture brush... also I left it blank for your logo abilities to shine!
A quickie...

I plan too... but for that I want to work on those iconic characters they posted in the kickstarter... Though I have no problem with any of the creators here posting in your group.
after you, who would'nt call Orion 'iconic'

Okies so here goes, about an hour's work... more to follow. Also this is a crop, the full thing is about waist high and up, with 1 hand showing... also ignore the unfinished eye, it's just blocked in for location, not details...

This is the full composition... yeah sorry, I am not drawing those sleeves... lol Ignore the nudity, it's just there for a guide.

Feel free to Simplify the coat, if it's a problem. And the 'double cape-system' of coat and veil are one of the challenges with this character.
That said... Oh Wow! I already love this face! *grin*
Ah! I see, tighten the focus to the torso and you won't have to deal with the oriental embroidery or the drape and flow of the whole coat. Nice work!
Be Well!

Wip3... will finish either later tonight or tomorrow...

Well of Course she's beautiful, Silly!
Bobby's a bit of a pro, after all.
And I know you have some pretty cool 3D stuff, lurking on your drive... perhaps you should create a generic 'post your character art' thread and seed it with a few shots? Or head over to the CoT DeviantArt page and submit it there?
Be Well!

I agree, the eyes are the best feature - which is true of my original, as well.
