I'm back with new art (manga, stuff like that)

Canned Gabbiar · #1 04-12-2003, 07:47 AM

I recently started drawing some manga style characters. I haven't had much practice, so don't mock me if you think it is crappy. But anyway, here's number one in EXTREMELY ROUGH FORM. I did it straight in pen so if there are any errors, I couldn't correct them. I couldn't use liquid paper because I drew it during Geography class

. Anyway, the hair is in the blue biro colour since one of my friends accidentally drew a stroke of blue. Anyway, remember... EXTREMELY ROUGH FORM.

I liked it CG. Apart from the face it was very Metal Gear Solid. Like the drawings in the manual. Which I loved. Do not redraw it! It is good like that.

Keep up the good work

nice...shweeeeeet!

SeaRex · #5 04-13-2003, 08:57 PM

Don't be so hard on yourself. I practiced anime style for years, and I never got that good. If you're going to make a manga, I would suggest leaving it in that rough form... that would make it very unique.

Canned Gabbiar · #6 04-15-2003, 10:23 AM

Here's another one. Woman with two hand guns. I think the fringe looks a little weird but what the hey. As before, it is in rough form.

Fez · #7 04-15-2003, 05:25 PM

cool. Your good at this.

Dipstikk · #8 04-15-2003, 11:43 PM

Well, Hello sailor!

Nice picture. Niiiiiccceeee.... (begins to drool as he stares at -ahem- middle of picture.)

Anyway, you seem to understand anatomy fairly well. From fellow Artist, nice job.

Here's something else...

Canned Gabbiar · #10 04-17-2003, 09:01 AM

Here's another one. Drew it with coloured pencils but then decided to smudge the pencil marks to make it smoother. Man, this is where I wish I had Photoshop. The style is based on that used in Sailor Moon.

Canned Gabbiar · #11 04-17-2003, 09:03 AM

oops, forgot to add the attachment. Take something off my postcount if you want. Anyway here it is...

Fez · #12 04-17-2003, 09:08 AM

wow! those are great! if you even need some good weapons to draw them with, just ask me!

paramiteabe · #13 04-17-2003, 10:12 AM

That is extrordinary good work you have there Canned. Keep that up and you will make a great cartoonist or conceptual artist someday. Thats very professional.

Those are fantastic CG, and yeah don't be so hard on yourself. I know it's hard, but they are great!

I love the one of the girl with the two guns.

Alcar...

They're so... kewl-- like hamsters.

I honestly like them. You're a pro! ^o^

Here's a sketch that I drew up with my graphic pencils and some coloured pencils. It was originally meant to be Konoko from Oni but then I stuffed it so it doesn't quite look like her. It's a sketch and I don't have a scanner (since my parents won't let me get one) so the quality is a bit crappy.

Here's the smaller, sharper version-

and here is the larger, less focused version-

I've already picked out a couple of problems... The ear is a bit too small, I've messed up the light sources, the armpit area of the right (our right) arm looks weird in this version and there looks like there is a problem with the collarbone + right shoulder.
I'm sorry about the eyes. Using the digital camera took away the detail in the eye.

Dipstikk · #17 04-23-2003, 07:30 PM

OMFG! Spike Spiegel had a sex-change operatin!

But seriously, you do good work. Your shadowing is exellent. I can't shadow worth beans.

But you gotta admit, the similarity to the girl and Spike is pretty darn close.

Canned Gabbiar · #18 04-24-2003, 12:41 PM

Lol. You're right Dipstikk. They do sorta look alike.

Canned Gabbiar · #19 04-25-2003, 05:19 AM

Ok, here yahz goes. A good fanart sketch of Konoko from the game oni. It no longer looks like Spike from Cowboy Bebop.

NOTE: The entire jacket is supposed to be grey but when I played around with the contrast, gamma etc. to get the lines clearer (the paper looked purple at first), some of the shading went white. Anyway enjoy.

Canned Gabbiar · #20 04-25-2003, 11:49 AM

I was reluctant to post this one... since it didn't turn out so great in the digital camera. I hate my stinkin' coconut digital camera!

Also, this is one of the things I would have liked to CG... but I don't have photoshop

or painter etc.

Native Poser · #21 04-25-2003, 06:24 PM

I think it looks good. Your art is great! Keep it up

SeaRex · #22 04-25-2003, 09:07 PM

I like that last one you posted, the use of darker colors is magnificent. God, I still just abolutely love that first one you posted, the rough pen scketch... it's my favorite.

By the way, thankie for feedback in my old topic.

Strike Witch · #23 04-26-2003, 11:27 PM

Astonishing! Wow! Incredible! when they all come out at once it sounds like astwowdible!
Maybey you could draw a demon for........me?

PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAASSSSSSEEEEEEEE!

Canned Gabbiar · #24 04-27-2003, 05:29 AM

Just some character I sketched. Man I wish I had a scanner...

Fez · #25 04-28-2003, 04:06 PM

weird arm on that last one. But these are g8!!!!

Dipstikk · #26 04-28-2003, 05:40 PM

For some reason, this post (Canned's post for Anime Fanart) is regestering as My post, "Abe Art." Is everyone noticing this or is it just on my end?

Canned Gabbiar · #27 04-29-2003, 07:00 AM

Hmm, yes I noticed it too ferill. It was a poor excuse of forshortening... I need to make that hand smaller.

I don't know what you mean dipstikk. You mean this is showing as part of your post? If so, then I think it's just you. Dunno...

GTdragon · #28 05-10-2003, 01:54 AM
