If he doesn't read this, I could possibly have a go when I get time. That means finish my late assignments and also a number of projects for an open-source MMORPG in development that I'm trying to contribute to.

Oooh I'm so glad these are here! :3 Thanks for making these - sometimes it's hard for us to reduce things to their basic shapes. Especially me. xD Anyway, thanks again. These will definitely come in handy.

So hey I'm back.

First of all, I apologise for leaving this to rot - after my last post here, I didn't really get many responses, so I assumed there was very little interest in what I was doing. Of course, seeing the posts made after I left (plus the fact that this is now linked in the Useful Links thread - thanks Splat!) made me want to come back and finish this.

Before I get back to it, though, there's a couple of issues that I'm going to have to work out:
  • 1) Image hosting. It's not practical at all for all of these images to be hosted as attachments on the forum, so I'm going to be uploading them somewhere a bit more permanent. I was thinking DeviantArt would be the best option, but any suggestions are welcome.
  • 2) The OP. The forum seems to have a time limit on editing posts, and as it turns out I can't change the OP anymore! Once I've got what I want to put in the OP worked out, I'm going to have to contact a mod to get it changed.

Once these problems have been worked out, we'll be back in business. Hopefully I'll be sticking around for good this time!

ImageShack.us is fast, simple and free. I used up all my OWF attatchment space months ago, and have been using this ever since.

Well you'll be happy to know that I've actually got two done today, to make up for yesterday's lapse. Unfortunately, they're both of a lower quality than previous sketches. Why?

You made concept of a concept so we could concept your concept of a concept.

What a novel concept.

What was the point of that post?

Manco 11-05-2010 07:15 AM

I know this is fun and all guys, but I'd like to keep this thread on-topic.

I appreciate the suggestion, but I've used Imageshack in the past and I don't really like their system for managing images. The same goes for Photobucket, Tinypic etc. - I'd rather have an easily-modified gallery and folder system like DeviantArt's; something that can be easily linked to as well. I guess I should have mentioned that when asking for suggestions, sorry.

Oddhunter, I wanted to say that I really like your steef sketch from the first post here. It's very professionally done. Me personally, I can't stand drawing the little 'skeletal parts' with the circles, shapes, connecting joint things, and then layer on the details. I just draw a basic outline of one part of the character and then draw it as I see it, but if you can do it that way more power to you. I admire that, because it's something I could never do.

Manco 11-27-2010 08:29 AM

Okay guys, I just got done uploading all the analysis sketches to deviantART.

You can find them here, although I'm not entirely sure it's worked properly - the site doesn't show my account as having any deviations, even though the links to them work.

I'm hoping it's just a cache issue.
