Thanks Taser and Underthemoon :)

I did further tests with openCanvas and...

(I don\'t have my tablet with me right now, so this was a mouse job.)

Story:
I usually don\'t bring misterZ here, but he promised to be nice. And he usually is when he gets to hold his crystal. Don\'t make fun of his hat though, he likes it very much. MisterZ is a grim giant. He\'s pretty civilized for one of his species, and likes \"beautiful things\" as he himself puts it.

MisterZ steps up and explains: \"I mister Zee. Me like beautifull thing. Me also like miss Zee. But not see miss Zee awile. One time me walk in forest an see big flashy lighty thing, very beautiful. Me think: me take big beautiful to miss Zee, then she like me. But big beautiful strange and make mister Zee fall! When I wake, I in here place. Here many beautiful red rock, but no miss Zee. But miss Zee big girl, she take care herself.\"

Apparently he had stumbled into a magic portal, that had another end in Yliakum sky. Afterwards he has grown quite fond of ruby crystals.

Also with oC:

Here is a piece of map that was found on the ground near the outskirts of Hydlaa. It\'s propably a failed try of a novice cartographer.

Really good work cherppow,
And I don\'t believe that you really done those with mouse, as drawing with it seems extremely difficult.

And that map was also amazing, really well done.

Hi and thanks for the comments.

To DivineLight: Difficulty is relative. It gets pretty natural in time. Another mouse drawing:

well ok, but it\'ll definitely need lot of practice. I\'ve never seen such good mouse drawn art that can compete hand draw.
PS is looking good because of cherppow :)

Thats the truth, you seem to be th only one left contributing to planeshift graphically which is the main part of PS that I love. So thank you for your dedication, I wish I could help; unfortunately, my armor concepts, if even used, would be on the bottom of the priority list for the devs I would think. I\'m pretty impressed by the use of your mouse as well. Practice makes perfect, I guess.

Hello again

Thanks DivineLight and Gentar, though I think we should thank the great artists who came before me. With Moogie gone I guess I am one of the senior 2d/3d artists now. Not the only one though, don\'t forget Inca, Nanaki and Ghrynn. Currently it\'s more important to get them bugs fixed, so there\'s no desperate need for new models. However, we can always make something ready for the future.

Hmm, what\'s a post without a picture... :)

Fiction:
On the second level of Yliakum, a small village of Kepk is being threatened by a vicious band of marauders. The leader of the marauders is a big brute, well know for his atrocities. Unsuspecting villagers have already left to the grain fields for work, and only few women and children remain at their homes... however, there is someone else too...

(Contains some grossness, so a link only.)

I admit, I was pretty tired when I drew that. ;)

Greetings,

To Waylander: Heh, in a plate mail I doubt I could throw much of anything. :)

This one goes to all those who have helped, or are helping in creation of PlaneShift.



*edits*

Here is also something inspired by a certain thread in in-game bugs section, whose topic totally caught my sympathy. :)

Hi again and thanks for the comments.

I have many secrets ;) but they don\'t have anything to do with my drawings. Hmm, few tricks that I do use:



Zoom:
Zooming in when drawings helps acquire smoother lines. Especially nice when working with mouse. Must check the big picture once in a while, to be sure everything fits together.

Resize:
When the image is finished, shrinking it a bit can give a nice touch. Just like antialiasing in 3d games. Also makes the file size smaller for web uploads.

Layers:
Nice especially when colouring or dealing with transparency. I like to use multiply for colours and overlay for highlights and bumpmaps.

Eraser:
Drawing with computer, you can erase a million times and the paper never breaks. :) Undo & Redo are in frequent use too. Sometimes I also use move, if a line is nice, but just in wrong place.

Last but not least:
Everybody to the Limit

*edits*

Here\'s how I imagined the the diaboli female:

1. Original
2. Added gaussian blur with radius 1 to smooth the lines a bit.
3. Added multiply layer and coloured.
4. Added overlay layer and touched up few spots.

Just my opinions. Thanks for reading.

This creation is my favorite on this thread. I love the color and it reminds me of a consumor mixed with a centipede. Cherppow you do great work and I look forward to more. :D

Hi

Why thank you zorbels. It did take it\'s time to draw & colour, should have thought of a smarter pose though. Maybe environment too.

A bonus picture! Inspired by our friendly fan art community. \\o/
