My oddworld sketches

[ziggy]

I think I have almost mastered drawing Abe! He is a fun character to draw, because he seems simple but has all these wierd little details about him. It's from a scene in Exoddus.

[Matriar]

Hey, very nice sketch!
Maybe you try to draw Abe's hands a bit bigger and his head a bit smaller next time. Else, it's perfect! You captured his expression very good.

[snuzi]

Woah, that looks awesome, ziggy! He looks exactly like he does in the movie. Great work!

[Arxryl]

Wow! That's pretty impressive! Good job!

[Creepy Doc]

Very nice sketch! His expression almost looks like the original.

[OddjobAbe]

Ziggy, carry on drawing! They are absolutely fantastic! I've adapted my Oddworld drawing style now to try and make them as good as yours! You are fantastic. You have earned my respect!

Also, I'll add my new Oddworld drawings in my thread in a fortnight or so.

I like ALL the pics, and I mean it, ALL of them, I wish I could draw stuff like that
I draw every frickin' day, but nothing, I shall never draw like the real master...
Keep up the good work! I think you draw better than any creature on earth, I don't know about space though... (maybe aliens are picassos, you never know!)
And btw, you really make the characters look like them. (Elum,scrab,glukkons,etc)

[Chubfish]

That picture of Abe from Exoddus looks really cool, If only I could draw like that but that really inspired me too start drawing...maybe I should open an art thread...well good sketch anyway!

[ziggy]

many thanks guys! It's cool to think I've inspired some people too.

Ziggy,with your talent you deserve a shot at the big time,and if there is anybody reading these forums that has the power/connections to make your dream a reality then i hope they contact you. BTW,the same goes for Arxryl.you two have more artistic talent in your little fingers than i have in my entire body

wow.. thanks! Know that I still got more stuff to come I've just been taking a break from the computer for a while.

Seeing these makes me want to bust out the pacer and draw some Oddworld fanart.
I've always had trouble drawing Mudokuns. It's something about their mouth being the same distance out from their faces as their eyes. There's that inward part in between the eyes and the mouth that I just can't seem to get right.

You are an amazing drawer. You seem to be able to get everything in the right places, but I've noticed in some cases that your scales/proportions are a little off (Stranger, for example). Other than that, every single one of your drawings are superb.

I'd say that I'm an average drawer. None of my family from previous generations have any artistic talent. The only people in my family that seem to have any amount of talent is my cousing and myself, and we are both very different people. He draws the inside of cars, I draw crazy animals with many tentacles and even more eyes.

Keep up the good work. Perhaps you could expect some art from me in the near future. Who knows?

Ziggy i like the slig you drew

[ozman]

Ziggy i like the slig you drew

[AlienMagi]

hey ziggy.I agree about nice pictures but...do you know where this avatar you have is from?(just wondering if im the only one who knows that game on your avatar)

[ziggy]

From the Neverhood of course. Now I think I'll just change it so noone will ask me anymore....ya I'm getting kinda tired of it. The game's not that unknown. But thanks for your comments anyway.

[AlienMagi]

ok i played neverhood for a long time. i almost died when laughing lol

[MagogCartel]

and here is a scrab...

I don't know why, but I love drawing the scrabs! Their muscled torso and precise legs are awesome to draw. Good job on your drawings! Very nicely done and clean.

[Crashpunk]

Mind telling us why did you post in a dead thread?

[MagogCartel]

woops i just saw it was open, didn't look at the dates.

[enchilado]

Ziggy still comes on the forums often, so I'd say it's acceptable in this case.

Indeed, it brought Ziggy's art to my attention - I'd not seen it before. Wow! It's beautiful, Ziggy!

[MagogCartel]

Yay! I have been salvaged. Props to Ziggy's art.

[ziggy]

Thank you all (well MagogCartel and Enchilado.) I may find the inspiration again to make something that will interest me, and hopefully be compelling enough for you all to see. The whole idea of fan art got really boring for me and I got pretty busy for the past...2 years that I just couldn't really find the time to draw anything for this dead thread. Posting pictures here on a weekly basis is just harder now unless I'm on a break or something.

[ledsnipe]

Wow these are really good

[ziggy]

Danke. Hey you guys, I found this oddworld painting I made some 4 years ago hidden in the depths of my closet. Happy Thanksgiving ye merry gentlemen.



damn it's kinda blurry. I suck at photography, but it still looks pretty good.

[AvengingGibbons]

Ha, that's cool I wonder how well you can paint now if that was 4 years ago!

[RyuuFox]

Yeah really cool! i like the colors So vivid!

[STM]

Yeh that's so damn fine art

[scrabface]

really nice!

one thing; is danke a buzz word in english? or are you german? I know kaputt is one.

[ziggy]

Yes I've gotten a bit better. It's not a buzz word, nah. Kaputt and Gazundheit are the only buzz words I know. I just said that to be cool. I'm American.
