I was waiting on a download looking at a PS picture, then I looked at my drawing tablet...then at the photoshop icon...again at the feline woman from PS...and suddenly I was overcome by a sudden urge to do this...

any and all comments wanted an apreciated, keep in mind this is a 10min job though :)
-
Is she naked? lol, I must say that we (Fenkis) are better looking in our g-strings ;)
-
Easy tiger,
very sexy
-
lol, she has hairy brests? :P
nice pic, although i\'m not sure if the anti-nude ps players will appreciate this *remembers the planeshift-porn-splash thread :rolleyes: *

That\'s the first thing that catched your eye? Her hairy brests? ;)
-
lol I guess she is kinda naked... strangely though if she were in a G-string thats when I\'t get...weird
and anyway if I had allover fur i\'d get around in the nuddy all the time :)
to compensate for this misunderstanding I drew a fully clothed Enki, sorta preisty magey looking...thing :)

It shows.
Anyway, the guy with the robe looks a lot better, though you could be a little more creative with the gradients on the robe, especially the left sleeve.
-
The female enk on the current cover art of the game is just wearing a small cloth over her lower area. So that\'s pretty normal, at least in one concept of the game.
-
endikai-clothing=interesting conversation :P
-
and yet a enki with a leather jacket is too much -.-...i\'ll go cry in the corner now

Why?

Wow! Great art, you\'re really talented!
-
I\"m sorry Sep, I just wouldnt feel right copying Tetsuya nomuras design...

whatta you all think? is he evil?
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload4/scawyface.jpg)
wow didnt realise how huge it would be...
Admins if its too big pm me and I\'l resize np
-
and before anyone could say BOO, Kintall had drawn another image, this one however was of a somewhat agressive looking axe creature/weapon/thing
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload4/Scawyaxe.jpg)
-
Cool loking axe! :tup:
although :), it seems too round to be able to slice anything.
-
wait a minuet you think i whant an exact replica of that jacket...silly :P i just what one and i gave you an example i whouldnt ask you to copy something. asieds its for an enki so no copying. :P
-
hmmm I had an idea for an aquatic race/npc/enemy and here it is...
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload4/Aquatic_archer.jpg)
as allways constructive critcism is allways welcome
-
WOOW You have really talent... Keep up the good work
I can\'t draw things like that :P

http://www.freewebs.com/tyrannobase/Sword.bmp
Dont say its crap cuz i already know it :D
-
:) love the sword its \"old school\" seriously cool!
oh and Sep your Enki fellow in the long coat with the pointy metal stick is on its way, this one may take a minute as I\'m trying to build up by ability to work on demand, so I\'m doing it well ( hopefully)

as allways comments and suggestions are apreciated
-
Oy... that a wee bit big there... good, but big
-
oh just to point out for the colure phase Black with red eyes and a mainly black jacket other then that do as you wish no turquise though :P
-
well I couloured that Enki fellow, the coat isndeed black.
however as far as red eyes go, well the coulours allready there so I\'m afraid youl just have to get what your given :)
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload4/EnkiRequest.jpg)
what to do next..... hmmmmmm.....(suggestions).....?
-
NOT SEPEROTH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! :O
-
I like your weapons very much
So a very nice bow will be great :D
-
:( but but thats not what my chars been styled on this whole time it looks great but its not my char
very nice though :D
-
i can\'t draw... but i can flash ( not very good :P )
I made this in 5 minuts so... its not nice...
Just to let you see what i do:
Welcome to my world
http://www.freewebs.com/tyrannobase/Myworld.swf
-
sorry no offence ment its gone now >.>
-
Prob fixed no hard feelings :)
-
Hey Kintall, I love your Seperot pic! :) But I also see it isn\'t what his character is supposed to look like. (I didn\'t see the original previous posts, so I can\'t comment on those) Still, you are a marvelous artist. Perhaps you would like to try your hand at a sketch of my character some time? You can see what she looks like in the CG coloured picture in my art thread, the one with the sunset background and butterflies.
Still, if you want a general description, her key features are her pure white fur, white hair, pink ears and soft pink eyes (she is an Albino). She\'s a healer by spirit, loves nature, wears stylish femenine robes and usually carries a simple magical staff.
Nevermind if you don\'t want to, but I really do love your style and would be so happy to see \'myself\' how you might see me. :)
-
Wow Kintall, amazing! :))
very detailed and colorful work. The shadows gives life and depth to the images, and I love weapons that are bigger than the wielder ;)
I like the wand a lot too. Great work!
How about adding some background to the pictures? :)
-
sorry Sep I didnt mean to be so abrupt I\'m just a bit thingy about people messing with my art, and I\'d love to do backgrounds sadly however my abiltys with backgrounds are compeable to my abilitys unicycling: I can but its dangerously hap hazard and potentialy fatal :)
-
ok... well Ive started on the mogura pic, so far I\'ve just done the body, I think I\'l use a pseudo tank top out of the front on moogie pics and blend in a skirt, anyhow here it is so far....
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload4/moogieformScetchCensor.jpg)
-
OK Moogie is done... this one was a bit more of a meaty challenge, quite enjoyable reallly :)
the outfit is an original, I know its a litttle bit coloured but its hard to show light/shadow without it looking monochrome, and I wanted her to look lively and vibrant so I put a bit O colour in her cheeks
if you want any modifications made ie colouring etc, just post whats yer preference and I\'l be glad to hue/saturation that layer into submission :)
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload4/KintallMoogie.jpg)
[EDIT]
P.S and any suggestioons on what to do next would be greatly apreciated, mainly because I\'m trying to get my \"art on demand\" skills up to snuff, thanks
as allways comments apreciated, sometimes even demanded :)
-
Can you draw an insect like creature about 2 foot long they have 2 sets of wings, large eyes, sharp long spiny legs -4 sets, 2 fore claws-large,and powerful jawed mandibles.
It should look hyperactive and hungry-vicious.
-
Hmmmm.... sounds reasonable will do :)
(just remember the P word next time though :) )
-

Pleeeeaaaaaaaaaase?! ;)
I\'d like to see a picture of that insect.
-
She looks beautiful, thank you Kintall! :)
-
lol, very well its on its way
heres the early scetch...
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload4/Bugrequest.jpg)
meanwhile gimme feedback on the other pics, especial the Moogie one :)
-
all your pics are great! At least by my standards ;( :D ;)
tnx for drawing it, but it\'s a hard position to add wings. :S
-
wauW!!!!!!.......another great talent has found his way to the planeshift forum!! wish i could be that good...really. Hope to see a lot more from U.
PLEASE!!!!
-
Oh GOOD I\'m so glad you like it, I\'m allways nervous doing a rendition of someone elses work...phew :)
any other suggestions would be well heard Mogura, and also how do you do your backdrops?
-
and the wings\'l be in there no worries I allways plan ahead (photoshop lesson 1:)
-
Looks GREAT! The wings can even be added in 2 places as I see it. The more conventional position would be just below it\'s claw-arms, having it\'s lower body hanging down, the wings could fold over it\'s body then when it\'s not flying. If you want it to be really freaky you could have the wings on it\'s tail, and it\'s entire body dangling upside down when it\'s flying.
-
Bugs done!... fast eh?
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload4/FULLcolourbug.jpg)
comments, requested as allways :)
-
Well I\'ll utter a bit of critisism here, but that doesn\'t mean itsn\'t fantastic what you do.
Anyway, I like the moogie-picture a lot more then the one from Seperot and the one of this insect.
Because you use a lot of bright colors, and that\'s better for pictures of \'good\' (I mean the alignment) things/people then for chaos/evil ones.
So i suggest to use in for i.e. the insect-like animal darker colours and only shades of a dark colour.
The evil head was better coloured: not to much completely diffrent colours but a lot tones of the same dark red.
This explains also why the uncoloured drawings are sometimes better then the final result: there is more shadow and your audience can imagine the colours themselves.
It\'s very possible that i\'m not completely correct, because I\'m absolutely not artistic, and I know nothing about it.
-
wow tnx. But Taldor has a point...

YAY, now thats the kind of thing I\'m after.
I do see what you mean by the coulouring being important in showing further what a character/monster is, ie if somethings done in pastell pink with highlights of white, then making it look villanous or nasty may well be challenging, alternately if something is coloured in black with deep red highlights then it will be more likely to look vilanous.
as far as the bug goes I was going for a tropical feel as the worlds largest insects are found in the tropics, so I figureed it would need tropical colours to blend into that kind of scene
the seperot one was coloured to look like a pirate: I dont exactly know why, just was
Thankyou so much that was the best critique I\'ve had yet:)
-
cool bug :)
oh on a tinsy side note..as my editing offended you ( again im sorry i ment no offence :) ) i was wondering if yuo chold make the dark fur yourself. if not just dont replie i dont what you to get angery...
-
Lolz... maybe you can draw me...
Tyrannotula... so a t-rex fused with a tarantula?
i hope you\'\'ll draw this :D
-
S\'okie sep I\'l recolour it and PMit to you ok?
and a Trex and a tarantula... hmmmm.... will do it sounds like a challenge...
-
well three things, one I re coloured the seperot pic
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/Seperot_darkskin&hair.jpg)
I actually like it more now, it sort of has a dark velvet feel to it, the eye is now red though I was thinking how nice a pair of icy light blue eyes would look against allmost jet black fur, with similarly dark hair with a blueish shine topped off with a long pure white coat and matching vest and pants...
I feel my character sketch aproaching...
and heres a re colour of the insect thing, rather more wasteland evil looking now:
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/BlackBugy.jpg)
and finaly an early sketch of the Tarantula T rex hybrid.. I\'m not sure about these traits but first ones allways odd
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/Tyrannntualr5.jpg)
as allways, comments/constructive criticism are more than welcome, as are interesting requests :)
-
thats exactly what i whanted kintall great great job :D
i love that bug too :)
-
Hey hey Kintall,
That\'s amazing work :tup:
I wonder, if you ever feel bored or inspired (wichever you prefer ;)) would you please have a go at lil\' old Kely?
I\'m a Nolthrir druid trying to understand nature, already well known with the lands and waters of Yliakum, but a stranger to it\'s skies for i will never experience the priviledge of flight. To make up for this loss, a falcon (wich i have no name for yet) decided to share his live and to become my familiar and close friend and together we experience nature in all her glory.
As for looks well, Kely is a herbalist/druid and does some brown and a bit of blue ways and this is reflected in his robe and (walking) staff. Also does he carry a sickle on his side (to cut herbs and lag monsters :P)
His skin is somewhat greenish with long dark hair.

more specific thy must be, if the wisheth fanart from me :)
meanwhile I have done the Trex Spider hybrid (youl have to excuse the shading I just got PS7 so I\'havent got the hang of it yet, it reacts differently with my stilus)
anyhow here it is :
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/Spiderdinohybrid.jpg)
as allways, comments and suggestions apreciated and encouraged :)
-
I agree with Taldor here, the second colouring of the is much better :)
pun of the day: I\'ll talk to the devs, I found a bug on the forums (omg..)
-
Great Kintall! It really makes a difference. :]
And WOW can you draw fast!
And to tell you the truth, you just helped a PS subproject! :)) It\'s easier to think when you have a pic infront of you.
Keep up the good work!
-
cool thankyou vey much, whats this subproject thing all about...?
and any suggestions on what to task with next?
hee hee hee...bug...
I think I need sleep, I found that pun way to funny..... -_- zZzzzzZZZzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZzZZZzz
-
The Treecastle. :)
http://treecastle.sourceforge.net/
btw, is your sig text from PST?
-
Kintall, i really love that tyrannotula! thanx!
-
np, glad to draw it, main question is though what noise would it make and how big is it, 1inch 2 inches?
AND, well I\'l get to drawing that green druid fellow (forgot which ones were the nolthir coz my game dont work much)
after that I guess I\'l draw the treecastle if I hear a \"please\", my main area is chracter/monster/item design so it\'l be nice to give locales design a go :)
as allways Comments and suggestions are apreciated (even on the pics that have been on a while :) )
-
well the druid fellow is coming along nicely, I allso found myself drawing this for some reason...
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/SWScan00027.jpg.jpg)
comments, suggestions etc....
-
About this recent pic, it seems ok at first glance. The more I study it, some things reveal themselves:
the sword: decent style, but if it\'s dragging behind her, the blade should be longer, or the sword should be tilted down a bit to match the angle of the ground plane. It looks like it\'s floating, or she\'s got some tremendous forearm strength. ;) (the fingers looked stetched/extended a bit, as if it\'s heavy for her)
the outfit: again, decent style, but how about doing some actual armor? Maybe some chain or scale mail. I know those armor types can take insane amounts of time to get right, but I think they\'re worth it in the end. The armor doesn\'t have to cover the whole figure. Maybe add other things, like pouches or a cloak.
the hands: it seems to me that the hands/fingers are a little too thick. A bit more slender would help convey femininity.
the head: looks like it\'s coming along well. I particularly like the face, and its expression. Maybe for the hair you could do a ponytail with some stray strands hanging in front. Possibly a triple ponytail? (Not horizontal, but vertical.) Typical \"flyaway hair\" would also look nice here.
the pose: full of attitude. :) Standing almost nonchalantly, saying, \"Just bring it.\" Good work.
How\'s that for a critique?
-
This one looks very evil...I wouldn\'t even colour it. The eyes are just plain vicious and the sword has very good potential too(the handle is bad imho).
The bad things are the legs and the left hand(from her perspective),a bit out of proportions and twisted.
About TC: well, if you\'re so eager to draw I\'ll contact you more when we\'ll need you. Thanks for the support!
-

Fan-bloody-tastic!, if you could offer your continued commentary I would be more than gratefull.
your right about the sword, its just a marker at the moment havent trawn the proper one... so it stands to reason it looks bodgy
as far as the hands go I was actually going to make them bigger as well as the feet, maily because I think if I\'m going to be doing non-human art be thet human or otherwise I think it best to find ways of showing masculinty and femininity without the use of conventional artistic devices
the outfit was actually going to be metal :) great minds etc...
hair wise, its going to become more spikey when I get to work on it :)
oh and the druid fellows been inked
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/Druidfellow_copy.jpg)
as allways comments & suggestions wanted/required/demanded/eaten/felt :)
-
I like your pictures very much, they look so great.
And about that druid, he looks like he has a 70\'s dress. Colorfull, tight waste and uberwide legs. :)
I like that style, but sometimes the waste gets a little too thin. ;)
But i think his back and ass could have been hidden behind his left arm to make him a little less fit.
Do I dare to make a request now?
I would want a character looking something like this (http://w1.261.comhem.se/~u26132534/fighter3.jpg)
But with more life and motion.
He is a stealthy shadow guy and master of two swords. His left-hand sword can be turned the other way, as a more shielding sword. Darkish colors.
And btw, hes of the human race.
Please Kintall :)
-
Go Kintall! I love it! Maybe a bit thin indeed but man i love your style.
-
Well the druids done, I must say I quite like it
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/druid_coloured.jpg)
this whole underpinning theme of Planeshift trying to escape the age old cliche\'s has really helpd as far as inspiring me to think of new ways of looking at traditionsl things (like druids)
no more knight, elf, dwarf and obligatory mage combos going to slay the dragon yet again, probably to get the magic orb/crystal/sword.
dont get me wrong I still love it, I still watch the roadrunner show and I still enjoy watching the coyote lose, and I\'l still buy the next final fantasy but its important not to allways walk the exact same paths.
put simply, this new thing is gonna be fun for the players and the makers :)
-
Woah!!! that\'s me :D
Remind me to buy you a beer next time in Kada\'s.
Edit: upon closer examination, what\'s with the bell (?) next to the staff?
-
cool cool, ty ty
oh yeah the bell... it had a string.. and a little link chain thing.. guess I forgot..
oh well :) \"think\" it attached and it will be, power of positive thinking that is.
-
/me thinks positively.... WOAH! that bell is hold in place by an energy field created by all life that surrounds it! 8)
-
indeed indeed, go the energy feild
that swordish fellow will have to wait it seems I\'ve gotten behind in my requests.
so first I\'m doing the villanous looking sworded lass. then secondly I\'m doing that treecastle ( which will be fun as I dont often do tree based locales)
then hmmm who knows :)
-
You don\'t need to draw the TC. Go ahead if u like, but there is no need for it(and no use actually). I\'d rather you keep up with the popular demand. ;)
-
ahh but I must as yo see you are the poulus so your demands shal be met
truth be told I\'m doing this for two reasons,
one I\'m looking to sharpen my photoshop skills as well as my \"work on demand quikly and well\" skills
and two, I\'m looking to find something to dig my teeth into as I\'m allready involved in another game production and any skills I can gain would aide it well :)
-
I don\'t understand fully- poulous?
But if u want to join the team, just come to the forums(link is on the site) and get in the flow and we\'ll see what we can give you to draw - brainstorming is more important now..
-
I think he meant \"\'populous\".
Btw, i am looking forward to seeing an assassin, the ranger is really very nice.
-
oh :) firstly \"poulous\" it my magical cool way of typing populous
secondly theres theres this, which I must say I do quite like as its one of the better shaded things I\'ve done
well see for yourself:)
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/Catgirlvillan.jpg)
DAMN! I\"m getting good :)
comments, suggestions, campaign contributions and barer bonds all accepted :)

(Does someone realise i have more then 10 posts a day, right now?)
-
gosh its good though, I\'m so darn happy with the shading and the lineart. its just lovely
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/Catgirlvillan.jpg)
and I\'ve started on the assasin I\'m going to go for a little more of an eastern cerial killer look to im :)
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/assasin_scetch.jpg)
and as far as the treecastle thing goes am being requested to draw Flora, fauna, inhabitants, places or just characters from it like npc\'s...?
-
ajow. I\'m not requesting anything! 8o
and I like the sketch of the female better, this one is too gentle looking.
-
OK this one has to be about the coolest thing I\'ve done, and let me say, Photoshop 7 OWNS!
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/Assasin.jpg)
Any constructive criticism is encouraged, as is applause and praise :)
(and requests too :) )
-
*
Again, I have to say that the eyes on the sketch look better.
But the blade looks nigh real! :tup:
-
it strangely reminds me of dorbain it looks fantastic as useual :)
-
You truly are a FanArt Machine!! And you\'re a good one. What did I say, a Great one :D
Love your work m8
-
I\'m not at all an artist, but I\'m going to try my hand at some constructive criticism. First I want to say that all your art is amazing!
In this latest drawing, the assassin looked better before you colored it. The gradient used on the pants make them look far too shiny. Not at all like cloth. And it\'s distracting. Also, far too much red. I\'m not sure if that\'s good criticism, but that\'s what I got. I also liked the belt hanging down between the legs in the uncolored one, and the long pony-tail instead of the loopy sash.
And on the Trex Spider, the transition between the silver and the red colored parts are abrupt and do not look like they belong together. Looks more like a Trex-sperm with a bionic spider-thing grafted to its back.
The battle cat and druid are perfect.
The redone seperot pic is too dark in the center of the face. But I love the sword.
Okay, now for a request.
I\'d like to see the Evil guy with the 5 red eyes in some light leather armor striking a pose with a sword drawn in the same style as that kickass axe you drew. The seperot sword was fantastic due to its extreme length. I\'d like this guys sword to be equally fantastic, but instead of extreme length, it should have an extreme size and weight. To wield this massive sword the guy should probably have great upper body strength, but it\'s not necessary.
Show me the magic.
-
Thankyou for all the praise, after my head deflates considerably I will decend to a normal altitude..
there. ok now what..?

Of course, where are my manors? :)
Kintall, will you please do us the honor of fulfilling my request and posting yet another one of your most fantastic and awe inspiring drawings?
How\'s that? :)
[edit] By the way, was my criticism at all helpful, or was it way off base due to my lack of artistic understanding?

good critiqe, allways welcome
even if I disagree with criticism its important to see where it comes from, and learn from it as we dont allways see what we are doing wrong/right
so yes, twas good :)
-
well the 5 eyed chap is well under way, thinking along the lines of big cloak of leather this one may take a bit as I\'m going to try this new distortion mask plugin :)
in the meantime here he is in all his gloryless sketched glory :P
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/5eyeGuyyyy.jpg)

well its done, hes redish (pink if you ask me) and hes got five eyes... giev it up for....ummm...THIS GUYYYY!!!!
[crowdcheers][/crowdcheers]:)
(http://upl.mine.nu/uplfolders/upload5/5eyeguyy.jpg)
as allways comments and suggestions are welcome
as are requests, I seem to have met them all so I\'m free to do another (so long as its a polite request) :)
-
You just keep getting better! :)) Keep it up!
-
Maybe it\'s my traditional art background talking, but I seem to enjoy your sketches more than the finished pieces. The way they\'re colored feel \"sterile\" to me. I see line art with colored gradients. That may be all well and good for you, but it falls short of my expectations after seeing one of your \"rough sketches.\"
Maybe you could increase the amount of light/shadow. The colored gradients don\'t go deep enough to really bring the pieces out. The light green cloth on the recent pic looks rather flat. Not enough darkened spots to make it look like he\'s wearing it. I also noticed that in that pose, he\'s not casting any shadows on himself. If you have a strong enough light source to create highlights, you would need to add darker shades to your colors to balance it. I also agree with Abemore about the pants on that assassin, but I disagree about the \"loopy sash.\" It adds motion to an otherwise static figure.
Don\'t get me wrong, your art is good (and rather popular! :) ). You seem prolific in your ability to produce it, something I can no longer do. Here\'s hoping that you can take your art to the fabled \"next level\", something most artists fall short of.
-
Wow,
love the critiqe, if I could get more like that I may just get to the aforementioned \"next level\"
you are quite right about the flat feel, when I\'m working in Photoshop it feels like I\'m colouring them into a plastecine like state, I\'m currently looking into ways of applying and distorting textures and/or patterns
and the self applying shadows are Missing, they are something I dont feel confident enough with even on paper as I still need to work on my spacial sense to then get the right feel for where the shadows should go (any methods you know of for building this skill would be greatly apreciated)
I do allso find that digital colouring is a bit... well \"soulless\" but thats probably my unused paint set talking :)
thankyou again Darkmoon for your critique, it is very much apreciated, and I do hope to receive more in future :)
[edit] and whats my next request hmmmmm.....?
-
Don\'t you have a life? :P ;)
I\'ll try to find you something to draw later, if no one will want keep you going(which would be a shame).

I think, this will be hard to draw(its hard to describe, too), but perhaps you want to try:
Its a creature with narrow shape, medium height. The head is between spieder and insectoid.(ie mandibel and facette eyes)
It has three legs and tarms with 120? between each pair of arms and again 120? each pair of legs. The arms are in one horizontal plane and the legs are in a seconde horizontal plane.
-
Could you please draw your interpretation of Savion (Enkidukai). Spy/Assassin style.
-
Yeah, about the next step. Here is a useful video-tuorial POLYCOUNT (http://www.planetquake.com/polycount/resources/general/video_tutorials/video-tut-list.shtml)
Look in the painting section and take the first tutorial, thats the best one.
Here is also a cool forum where you can look at the work of pros CGTalk (http://www.cgtalk.com/forumdisplay.php?s=5de96de07fcd718a2af5eecd42b64f46&forumid=111)
Almoust everything is done on comp.
Now to your work. Your sketches are damn good! I like them very much. :) ;) :)
-
Do not say such things lynx_lupo, even with smiley faces at the end. :)
Wonderful, amazing works of art Kintall.
I hope that we get some more talented artists in here to critique for you.
The 5 eye\'d gent is not what I had envisioned, but still cool. My fault for not being specific enough. :)
Speaking of specificity, here\'s a question:
Would you like us to be ultra specific, or would you rather enjoy the freedom given from general requests?
-
ty ty praise is allways welcome, as for the requests three things:
1) I only do requests with the word please in them, so why dont I practice my art whilr you sharpen up on your manners :) :)
2)less/morespecific doesnt really bother me I either work out my crearivity or my \"work to order\" ability so eithers fine
2) Pristontale is playable again for the Aus and NZ regions so I\'m going to be spendin the half hour or so I normaly spend on this art scene playing pristontale because... well, it may have as much depth as a kiddy pool and as much story as a van damme movie but its addictive...so.... there I go
:)
[edit] I\'m still doing requests but dont expect same day results :)
-
Alright, I\'ll do another.
Kintall, if you would be so kind, please indulge us by creating yet another digital work of art.
Here is my request...
Two female warriors. A Diaboli (http://www.planeshift.it/razdia.htm) and an Elf (http://www.planeshift.it/razelf.htm). Each wielding a 2-handed sword, now locked in combat. A fierce but beautiful countenance can be seen on each of their faces. Their long battle has torn and tattered their clothing exposing much of their well toned bodies. A scratch here; a cut there. A pair of thigh-high, high-heel boots wouldn\'t hurt the mix. Maybe some long luxurious gloves. Lets get some long beatiful hair in there too. This should result in a sort of battered elegance that is very appealing.
Thank you Kintall for your consideration. :)
-
Holy crap, this is the first time i\'ve looked at this thread. Amazing work. You\'re a very gifted artist. And you\'d be even more gifted if you drew an evil elven mage. Really evil and dark. :]
-
haha@abemore
Continue so and they\'ll lock the thread! :D ;)
-
whilst I\'d love to indulge thes more than inspiring requests my right hand has recently been bitten by a \"common huntsman spider\"
see link for more details on why my right hand now looks like a bumpy tomato :)

-
:( awww that sucks... hope it didnt have a nematoad in it!! hehe nematoad....
-
owwwiieee hunter spider..... that realy sucks kintall :(
-
>.< I\'m a total arachnaphobic. I mean I turn into a screaming little girl when it comes to spiders...well at least the big spiders. I\'d probably have passed out if I were in your case.
Yes....the Great Aendar is afraid of 3 in. crawlie things.
-
Ha! Wait till the rest of the Cabal hear! Savion shall take down the DE with spiders!
-
Oh and chocolate cake....and bikini models. I\'m scared of those too.
-
thankyou all for your sympathy, and confusing statements involving bikinis
Sepirot, you and me are going to have a little chat one of these days about other peoples art, and taking libertys with it
i.e your doing it again, and not even giving credit.
really not cool, thats the second time youve done that its not like you didnt know
and your using the art I made as a gift
I wont be on this board again for a long time
if THIS is what will happen if I post things here then I\'m finished with it, I really hate seeing people screw around with thigs that I made OUT OF KINDNESS
in short:
I AM THROUGH WITH THIS GAME THIS BOARD, AND THIS COMMUNITY it is all because of sepirots repeated actions, you cant say it was an accidend, the only thing left is intentional
GOD, I\'m so angry!!!
hate this game.. all seps fault
[edit] and if thats what people are going to do with the things I post here then watch as they magically dissapear
once again: line crossed, whole thing ruined
-
Dont know if I should laugh or cry....
-
Hum... You are going to leave PS because of Seperot? lol... How about hating only Seperot? And promise revenge to him and when the PvP is somehow enable kick his ass (if you can), you dont need to leave the game just cause of one person...
-
Everyone hates Seperot and it would be a shame to lose your artistic talent here Kin.

You don\'t have to leave us for seperot. Just put him in your ignore list, and you wont even notice him again.
-
putting him on ignore list wouldn\'t help... nope, not really...
anyway, I didn\'t post here yet, so I\'ll use the chance to say that thy pics are amazing!
You shouldn\'t care about Sep and there aren\'t many people that would alter thy pics
so um... please stay :P
-
Kintall, you cannot judge the whole PS community because of stuff like this. I understand why you\'re angry, but just saying \"He did this, so I hate this game\" doesn\'t work.
Talk to a moderator. Hopefully they will help you solve the problem.
If you are sure of what you\'re saying, then I wish you good luck in the future, or until you return.
Nasty spider by the way. Hope you\'ll get better soon. :(
-
Aww... my last request was really good too. ;( :P
And I think I speak for everyone when I say, what the...? ?(
-
Please check your PMs, Kintall. You don\'t have to leave over something like this.
I hope you decide to stay. :(
-
hmm.. weird :\\
So just because Seperot put the picture you drew of him in his sig(wich you made for him) without asking, you now hate the game, the community and everyone that\'s in anyway affialiated to PlaneShift? ?(
What about asking seperot if he would be so kind to remove the picture you drew from his sig, or put credits somewhere in his sig?
*thinks that either that spider bite has some really weird side effects or someone hacked into Kintall\'s account.*
EDIT: I see you deleted the art from your host too. oh well.. I guess it\'s goodbye then..

ok... that spider bite made someone a little... coo koo coo koo.... hehe... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

wow, community outpour
I\"m impressed and humbled, how can I say no to such a freindly bunch
and I thought about it, and no matter what I do people will allways take whats not theirs and if they dont have the perception to see that what they are doing is wrong, then it would be silly of me to get angry at people who probably dont even have the capacity to understand their actions
so, I\'d like to apologise to the community for my outburst and rash judgement I dont hate the game I\'m just thingie about my stuff and I let my mouth (or keyboard) run on ahead
Moogie, I checked the PMs, thanks..... seriously:)
and Sep, Stand on your head and fall through your bum.
altering other peoples things without permission is not fine, doing it more than once after you have been warned is not fine, doing all that and not even giving credit is worse.
Learn from this or one day an artist of some sort will lose controll and prove that the pen really IS mightier than the sword, if the weilder is sufficiently angry and the pen is sufficiently sharp.
to the rest of you... I\'d upload the pics but I\'v allready been awake far too long and thats a darn tedious job to do and after that I\'l get to the requests, one other thing... university has started so time is not on my side
thanks again to the community, lovely outpour I will do my best to live up to it :)
-
Yep, it was the spider bite. ;)
Drawings or no drawings, it\'s good to have you back Kintall. :)
-
So glad to see you back, Kintall. :) See, everyone wubs you!
-
I am also glad to see that you are back, Kintall.
-
Yes, welcome back :)
-
Yeah! Who wants crappy-mspaint-sword-drawers!? :D ;)
-
groovy groovy, as soon as I finish my uni stuff I\'l be right on those requests..
...
..........umm.....
... ....what were they exactly...?
for some reason whenever I try to look at the previous pages it says \"page cannot be found\"
-
Abemore:
Alright, I\'ll do another.
Kintall, if you would be so kind, please indulge us by creating yet another digital work of art.
Here is my request...
Two female warriors. A Diaboli and an Elf. Each wielding a 2-handed sword, now locked in combat. A fierce but beautiful countenance can be seen on each of their faces. Their long battle has torn and tattered their clothing exposing much of their well toned bodies. A scratch here; a cut there. A pair of thigh-high, high-heel boots wouldn\'t hurt the mix. Maybe some long luxurious gloves. Lets get some long beatiful hair in there too. This should result in a sort of battered elegance that is very appealing.
Thank you Kintall for your consideration.
Me:
Very evil dark elven mage.
-
*sigh*
i can\'t see any pictures :-(
-
I have a request. Draw the ranger in meh art gall. thread please. :D
(Except with more detail and better, of course :P )

umm, ist that a bit, well umm.... ok
I apologise in advance to all female PS forum members for what I am sure will be a very \"male\" artwork, but I fear I must do it as I have said I would... sigh
seems a bit steriotypical though what with the boobs and conveiniently cut up clothing and the sweat trickling down those \"healthy\" womens bodys as theyre locked in combat, probably make a great book cover for a trashy fantasy book involving some amazons (2 boobed kind) and a \"lance\" of some sort, I\'m rambling again... sorry
in short, I\'d love to itl be good practice for keeping femininity in an action situation
(though if I had to pick a female warrior character as my favourite it\'d be Samus Aran, she rocks!)
and further more If I were a female warror I\'d wear armour, proper armour not like they do on Xena or the like but FULL PLATE ARMOUR, the kind that looks as ugly as the people that have been hit by it, but maybe thats just me :)
-
So kintall does this mean your back as a forum member? anyways the work you do is simpley amazing.
-
yup me back, oh and btw my university degree first year that has just started is about a 50 hour week (most of those hours are on fridays) dont expect anything quickly.. anything not even me blinking I may not get time to do that for days

-
Woohoo, my favourite Planeshift Artist is back :))
Wibble to you :D I can\'t wait for your next project to get uploaded
-
so where the hell is all the art?
-
Its on the first pages... not much, actually, no art on this page at all.
-
wow your outburst of anger was totally random :D, but I guess you had good reasons.... Keep up good work, hopefully you\'ll post some more stuff (http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/images/icons/thumb_up.gif)
-
...my uni timetable is sorted, its a 49 hour week, I wont have time to do anything...ever...
I hate my life:(
I have no free time between uni and work I wont be able to draw any requests, I cant draw to relax...
this willl apparently be a constant for the next 3 years,
I\'m posting this while I eat my breakfast as it is the one bit of free time I have today before uni kills me and then I wait tables untill I die again
I\'m really sorry I wont be doing works at any recogniseble rate every now and then one may appear along with an SOS note. perhaps during holidays.... or in my sleep
