RavensPath Posted November 25, 2003 Report Share Posted November 25, 2003 On tech tv the had as a free file for the day a program that does most of the same functions as Photo Shop. The program is called GIMP and it works pretty well. Now I'm not artistic but I've been playing around with the program using some of the Hero drawings as practice. I would give it a try. Hey its free. Here is the weblink of where to download the program. http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/ Matthew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RavensPath Posted November 25, 2003 Report Share Posted November 25, 2003 Any suggestions on the best way to use the program would be appreciated! I love this program. I can still only do basic stuff, but it is still amazing what you can! Matthew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Posted November 25, 2003 Report Share Posted November 25, 2003 Not familiar with that program. (I use Corel Photopaint.) Speaking of which, I guess I had one more in me for now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sketchpad Posted November 25, 2003 Report Share Posted November 25, 2003 I've seen quite a few of the old character images floating around ... does anyone know if there's a place on the web that has any of these images? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magmarock Posted November 26, 2003 Report Share Posted November 26, 2003 Wow! Originally posted by Blue Not familiar with that program. (I use Corel Photopaint.) Speaking of which, I guess I had one more in me for now... Wow, Blue! Your Astrowalk character is awesome! personally, I'm not a big fan of all the neon colors, but they really look great on this one! And that pose is excellent, too! Nice job!

Blue Posted November 26, 2003 Report Share Posted November 26, 2003 Thanks Mags Lots of good stuff floating around here these days. (Anyone else have a sudden urge to run Sourge from the Deep?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcat Posted November 26, 2003 Report Share Posted November 26, 2003 WOW WOW Guys you all have been busy while I was a way. I lost my connection for a bit there, and then BLAM Blue has an explosion of artistic inspiration(Great stuff, Blue wish I was as prolific), and then Mangog, colors his stuff (GREAT as always) and we start talking about what software to use coloring. I use Photoshop myself, and have heard good things about Gimp. Everyone keep up the good work! As for me... I've gotten my lazy butt back to the drawing pad, and did a NPC that needed an original drawing for over a year. Blue Fury is AvantGuard's Martial Artist, She relies mostly on her DCV in combat, and keeps her opponents busy as she whittles them down with a lower dice attack (although it is AP) Blue (as she's called by the team) is Thrash's GF, and the two just had twins together. I modeled her costume off a look that Electra had around the time the Daredevil movie came out, and took the pose from a piece Storn did for the 4th ed 'Watchers of the Dragon' book. Hope you like it. WC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted November 26, 2003 Report Share Posted November 26, 2003 Congratulations to Mangog for taking the worst art in a Champions scenario and turning it into something wonderful. Coral, Moray and Orca are wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coral, Moray and Orca are wonderful. Yes, and so were Mako, Man of War, Barnacle, and Porpoise. (Did I miss any Aquans?) Any chance we could see Anemone, a colored Barnacle, and Nereid?

Magmarock Posted November 27, 2003 Report Share Posted November 27, 2003 Speaking of Aquans... ... back on the bottom of page 12 in this thread, I posted a pic of my Aquarik character, Monsoon. [Removed link because it is old] Mags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magmarock Posted November 28, 2003 Report Share Posted November 28, 2003 Oooh cool! I wonder what type of powers Anemone has? Does she control underwater plants? I could see it now... entangles by plant tentacles- some of which could be NND poison. Or a CE (cloud of algea) that obscures vision and maybe hearing. How about spatial awareness? Or is she really an anemone that can change form and coloring so that she only looks human? Shapechanges into any undersea plant... attacks by stealth and/or surprise. Wicked!

Magmarock Posted November 28, 2003 Report Share Posted November 28, 2003 Just for giggles... Here are a few pics from a somewhat obscure card game called "Super Deck" (I kid you not), a Super Hero Trading Card Game from Card Sharks Inc. that arrived on the scene shortly after Magic the Gathering did. The game is easy to learn and plays quickly, but I grew bored of it pretty fast. Even so, some of the artwork is nifty and I thought I'd share. I did not draw or color these pics, by the way. Enjoy, Mags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristopher Posted November 28, 2003 Report Share Posted November 28, 2003 FYI, anemones are animals, not plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
