Pick's New Art Thread Again +V-day Celebration+

*Chortle* Funny comic, but I honestly don't believe that Desunius looks that masculine at all. "Look like a man" indeed. Are you all blind?!

My hand is one FIRE! *twitch*.... *twitch*....

Opencanvas 4 Plus + Too much goddamn time.
Lineart in... pen.

Basal Key Zixer.

The naked guy . . . the nakedguy!!! ((drooools))
Pick, If your art ever became posters I'd buy a room full of them

Oh my god I want a poster of this. Pick open a shop

Indeed, Pick's backgrounds are quite amazing.

Though, Zixer doesn't seem the type.

Holy CRAP that's beautiful!

I wonder if I would get in trouble with the Mods if I cropped his Butt and used it as an Avatar

This reminds me, anyone's free to make/use avatars from my art as long as if anyone asks who made it, you are honest.

That last image actually alieviates some possible issues I had with one of my commissions I asked you about.

Looks great, too. Love the colouring.

Great art as always. And no, that pencil you're using is not god, these are gods:

(Papermate Ph.D. series .5 multi and .5 pencil)

Pick · Post by **Pick** » 2006-02-02 01:00am

Actually, I don't use the pencil I linked to. I use a random Japanese brand that comes pre-stocked with blue lead. They're really nice drawing pencils, but at the same time, phenominally cheap

. I could probably get better ones, but I'm rather short on money.

-------------

Sketches first this time:

(Zixer, Kamina, Hoquer)
Mostly because I was laughing. Again.

An actual OMG picture of Darius.

Ryvara

Really random silly stuff (top: Hoquer and Zixer /middle: Shader /bottom: Verdigris)

Playing around with digital screen tones (not as good as normal but waaay cheaper.)

And a real treat for anyone who reads my story!

Spanky The Dolphin · Post by **Spanky The Dolphin** » 2006-02-02 01:06am

Oh, I like the slit-shimmer effect of that screen tone image...

Noble Ire · Post by **Noble Ire** » 2006-02-02 04:31pm

Honestly Pick, the Manga-esque short was professional quality. Phenomenal. And a great scene, by the way.

Ford Prefect · Post by **Ford Prefect** » 2006-02-02 05:58pm

I agree with the Arbiter. It is off exceptionally high quality. Like everything else.

The Silence and I · Post by **The Silence and I** » 2006-02-02 06:05pm

I've been keenly following these threads in silence, but I have to speak up. I realize you do not intend to make a living off of this talent, and I know you have been told many times that you could anyway, but I have to be another voice in the crowd here and agree with what has been said; you are nothing short of professional quality as far as my untrained eyes can tell.

Like Noble Ire said, that scene looks like it came straight from one of the better quality mangas. No joke.

Post by **Kuja** » 2006-02-02 10:10pm

Verdigris in that pose is truly yowl-worthy. And I like that shot of Umber in the doujin page.

Pick · Post by **Pick** » 2006-02-04 12:10am

Thanks again, everybody!! Especially you, Silence, because I do appreciate comments from watchers who I don't otherwise know are there

.

Doind the gag page reminded me of my original intent for DC --it was going to be comic. Then I realized that it would really take much too long to progress the story so... now they're just special treats

. The chapter about how Edge got his bands, however, will probably be done in comic, because it's my favorite part of the whole story, hands-down.

------------

Now!

Edge in minor worm's eye view.

Don't expect this scene to actually show up. I draw randomness!

Welcome back, Gambling King!

Setzer and the Lagomorph! (he summons one every time his special move fails. It heals some HP and status ailments.) Both belong to Squaresoft.

I might color this, but there's also a good chance I'd diiiie first.

Ford Prefect · Post by **Ford Prefect** » 2006-02-04 01:33am

Hooray! it's Setzer! That guy kicks ass. Also, that picture with Edge grasping at Umber, it seems as though Edge is either a) Going crazy or b) loosing control of the situation, and he's going to ask for help. Umber of course looks stunned that this even possible. I love it.

Spanky The Dolphin · Post by **Spanky The Dolphin** » 2006-02-04 07:01am

I love the detail on that last one. Aces, Pick.

Post by **Kuja** » 2006-02-05 12:42am

YEEEEHAAA, Setzer! That pic is awesome!

And that pic of Edge and Umber definately makes Edge look like he's coming unbalanced.

Erik von Nein · Post by **Erik von Nein** » 2006-02-05 02:32am

Wow. That Setzer looks so much better than what they've got going on in Kingdom Hearts 2. Surprisingly less effeminent, too.

Keep up the good work!

El Moose Monstero · Post by **El Moose Monstero** » 2006-02-05 09:01am

The comic style is very nice, the style reminds me a lot of the sort of 50's black and white stylised comic stuff - a sort of east meets west vibe. Everything else is also excellent as always, like the worm-eye perspective and the positions are also very well done.

BTW Pick, same situation again with the PM's - don't know whether you just haven't had a chance to look at it or something is up with my or your PM delivery notice thing - but I have replied.

"That this is even possible"? .... now, now.... People are forgetting my old art.

What? Every girl is entitled to one character like this

.

I wanted to practice some more cel-shading (since I'm considering how to color Setzer.) Opencanvas 4 Plus. Judging by his feet and hair this is younger chronologically than, for instance, the Syvorian Winters picture

.

Yes, you're going to find a lot of pictures can be located in time by how the characters look. For instance, the picture of Edge with the dun-colored pants (come on, the one with the crazy orange background) would be earlier than present, because of the outfit. The Alder doll is older Alder because he has fluff on his back, etc. etc.

I would have responded sooner, everybody, but I couldn't access the forums

Thanks again for all your comments, and I'm really glad you liked how the comic page turned out!

Oh my god that is so pretty.
