Aaaart. ;)
I've just gotten into drawing Oddworld creatures and so I need the practice. Please critique or whatever if you want. This is my second time drawing a slig/slog - much less anything Oddworld. .-.;
http://i470.photobucket.com/albums/r...Picture056.jpg My friend asked me to draw her Slig character Malice in exchange for her drawing a picture of VP Aslik. This is what I came up with. All I have to use is a camera so the picture is not going to be good. I don't have any art programs or a tablet, so you're going to have to deal with colored pencils and outline. Please though, minus that, please tell me what you think of it - even if you think it's absolutely awful. The more I get into drawing the better it shall become, hopefully. |
Awful?! It's not awful! =O
I like it very much Lacy Hemsmire. :) I fail at backgrounds...but you're really good. And I can't decide weather to color my pics or leave them blank. I hope to see more of your art Lacy Hemsmire! |
Thank you. Uh. xD
|
Sloggie! lol, gotta keep those pants squeaky clean XD
|
Consider using a ruler for those straight lines. Looks very good otherwise.
|
Haha I know about the lines. Unfortunately I don't have a ruler but I've got a lot of things that'll work as a substitute. :]
|
Hey Lacy this is super cool, it is awesome not aweful, I wish I could draw sligs like you can draw them! keep it up ;)
|
Great work. I love the Slig's mask. The Sloggie is cute :D
|
I <3 penciled drawings, they have a certain charm to them :) and yours is no exception.
Might I advise you do some work on perspective next? |
...LOOL. Yeah. Will do. I'm really getting into trying to draw them better. Better as in, detailed perspectives, shading, and all that stuffs.
I might plug my scanner back in. |
Its not half-bad! Did you use colored pencil to color it in? I'm just getting into the medium myself, and I hear its all about layers, layers, and more layers. Your art of Oddworld will help you figure out how to make all the little details that make a work stand out. I know I'm using my copy almost constantly (@_@)
|
I did use colored pencils. I'm not that great at it, but I'm trying my best. I'm practicing as much as I can (although I've got lots of other things I should be doing) so I can get them to look right.
I can't wait until it gets here. I'm trying to prepare myself by drawing the critters beforehand so I'll know what to expect. I ezz so excited! |
As they say (whoever they may be) "practice makes perfect". And nothing you'll ever do will prepare you for the oddness you'll soon experience.:fuzvamp: I have to say you're doing very well for not having any models! Can't wait to see what comes next.:fuzwink:
|
That's really good:). We can see that you shade pretty good. I've read that you did have no rule. It's pretty hard to draw something without a rule (espescially an industrial facilitie indoor). That's good you just need to get some good instruments to do not an "awful" ( as you said before) work.
|
Thanks, haha. I'll probably stop posting art on here, but you can find it at the DeviantART account on my profile. That's where I'll continue posting it.
|
Stop posting art here?! Why?! :( Your art is really good.
I like it. Please atleast post one more picture. |
why do you want to upload your art just at deviantart? , please don't stop posting your art here :(, I think your art is great please keep it up :fuzblink:
|
O:
IMAGE HEAVY.
If you insist. I don't have a scanner. I've tried hooking it up but the tower I'm using..I can't hook it up to it. Believe me, I tried. D: It's old and the scanner is new. So until I get it you'll have to deal with these hideous things. They might look a little better if I had a scanner. D: They're not perfect, I know. Some lines are off-center. Perspective might be off. I'm still practicing. I've got the artbook and things have been much better since I started using it as a reference. So expect much more to come. Hopefully they'll start looking uh, better. -Writes something about a ruler on the back of her hand.- http://i470.photobucket.com/albums/r...Picture063.jpg I forgot to switch pens. Originally the scrabs were supposed to be fighting. But now they're apparently admiring their recently-acquired.... appendages. I PROMISE this was unintentional. D: Still, it seemed funny so why not. http://i470.photobucket.com/albums/r...Picture066.jpg My Intern character TOAST. I love him. <3 http://i470.photobucket.com/albums/r...Picture068.jpg Gluk practice. Could also be what became of Molluck. >> << Even their vacuums emit noxious vapors. Just wait until it reaches his cigarette. 8D http://i470.photobucket.com/albums/r...Picture067.jpg Drog! :D From my fanfic, Vula's Oddysee. I have others I haven't put here which you can find here: http://s470.photobucket.com/albums/rr65/Sligette/ There's a comic there too. ): |
Whoa this is so great!!!:D
I really like them all, they are cool, gee but the glukkon is the funniest and the Slig is the coolest! I also like Elsa and the Scrab on photobucket. whaaaa you can draw sligs so well!!!!!!!!!! :happy: |
A tenner says that you've done the very first Rule 34 of Oddworld ever.
Also good :p, but seriously O_o wtf? |
LOOOOL. SWEET. I've always wanted to do a Rule 34 just for kicks. xDD Who knew it would be from Oddworld?!
I didn't mean to though. All my future scrabs have much thinner lines - and less of them - in that area. Whoops lmao. |
Awesome! Maybe you have to round the shapes a bit more in the chests (in the scrabs pic), but it looks really good.
Have you tried to paint them with Photoshop? I know you haven't it got but it can be easier to paint, and you can draw complex backgrounds with it. I think there is people here who can help you with that, if you want. You can try to make 3D backgrounds too (:D). |
I used to have Photoshop and I'm very familiar with 2.0 - it's all I've ever used. But I've had to replace my old computer and it doesn't run... well, much of anything new. D: I'm also really bad with a mouse - in particular this one. I don't have a tablet either, so... I've kind of gotten lazy 'cause I don't have time to sit down for 897678969 hours and paint like I used to. Haha.
|
Nice job with the anatomy and coloring! I loved the one of the vacuuming Glukkon; that one really made my day!:D
|
Those pictures are really good Lacy Hemsmire. :D
The Glukkon made me smile! And the Scrabs are cool too! Your Intern looks really good...I'm really warming up to those guys. =P And I ♥ the Slig! |
:
Hey me too! :D I also have no tablet work with a pc mouse and used 2.0 untill two weeks ago, now I use photoshop elements 7 and it is a really cool programm... well what ever, keep up the good work! ;) |
I like all of those pictures, but my favorite has to be the Intern. Great work on the Glukkon.
|
http://i470.photobucket.com/albums/r...Picture082.jpg
Uh... here's a concept on what an Intern queen might look like. I used refs from Interns to Maggie/Margaret, the Glukkon queen, from the Oddworld artbook. It didn't take me too long, but I'm growing very fond of Interns. D: I messed up her breasts by accident and just decided to cover them up instead of dragging them down under that really odd-looking sheet on her hips. The dripping stuff is from the uh, other end. >_o; There's some kind of cushioned roll cart that catches the eggs - with help from either other interns or whatever else is there to help, and they're moved off to a ... place. Oh forget it. If they're not a superspecies... uh... I'll draw a variation of that. o_o Or something. Lawl. |
Great work! She looks a bit bored.
|
great! You become better and better in drawing Interns :D
|
Awesome Intern queen! Yeah I'm liking them too. :3
She does look rather bored. lol :D Awesome job Lacy Hemsmire! You can definitely draw Interns better then I can. I looove the detail in all your pictures! |

The Intern named Toast finds himself rudely awakened by an over-cuddly Achsah. Achsah (Ock-sah xD) is a Silox, some created creature I made up forever ago. She's a cub. http://i470.photobucket.com/albums/r...Picture087.jpg I'M SO PROUD OF THIS xD Nameless female gabbit. I'm sure it's been done 89734893274 times but it's my third attempt at a Gabbit. [8 The second will never be seen by human eyes. http://i470.photobucket.com/albums/r...Picture083.jpg It's Munch. It needs to be darkened, eep. I'm going to digitally color this one - AND REDUCE THE SIZE OF MY IMAGES LOL. I used this stock photo as a reference. http://enchantedgal-stock.deviantart...Stock-47819268 - Landscape Reference |
That female Gabbit has to be one of my favorites so far. I'm not sure why, I just thinhk it's really good.
Achsah id cute :D |
http://s470.photobucket.com/albums/r...t=weecolor.png
Lolwhut. Uh. I'm rusty with Photoshop so there's some things I'll correct over time. It's my first digitally colored Oddworld... er... thing. |D Woo. And thank you so much for the comments, by the way. D: I really appreciate them. |
:D hey great the female gabbit is really cute I like how you coloured her ^^
and Toast is also cool :D |
The pencil drawings look like screenshots of an animated movie WIPs. :D
|
Awww Toast and Achsah are cute!! :happy:
And the female Gabbit :eek: she's really good both with color and without color! :D -two thumbs way up- Annd the Munch picture looks really good too! A little blurry but good! =P |
Your draws are totally amazing! I should try to draw Sligs and mudokons, it would be the first time! Great job! I admire!
|
i would be happy to turn your level art into actual levels for the game
