death tribble Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Nah. It is Necrowomens Secret ID...... Except of course Necro-Woman does not have a secret ID. And her nightmares are all things cute. And pink. She does not like pink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Gillen Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. I like to keep trying new techniques (for me, they are probably from centuries to decades old). And sometimes it is a good thing to play around before trying it on a job. Ten Ton Studios weekly challenge is a good way to play. I have done watercolor and I have done brush inking before, but I've only tried combining it a couple of times, about 12 years ago. Doing watercolor over black india ink results in a thin discoloration over the black line I do not like. This time I inked it AFTER the watercolor was put down. I wanted to see if it would work for the "right vibe" for an upcoming job. It doesn't. But it is still a fun thing to try and it might work for some other kind of job down the line. This weekly's challenge is Witchblade. Here is the link to the sketch challenge so y'all can see (and vote for your fave) the plethora of scantily clad, phallic wielding, warrior women. Voting begins and ends tomorrow (Thursday). http://www.tentonstudios.com/forum/index.php?topic=5612.msg89001#new So far yours is the best (at least because you can use color) but a couple of others are really good. jg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnTaber Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Re: Shard I had a character in a game I ran that was named Shard. He was a mild mannered glass repairman. After a while he started selling glass repair insurance. His picture looked a LOT like this one. He had a RKA with high stun mod and low dice (1d6 with +5 stun mod or something like that), teleport, force field, and missile deflection. Fun character!

I think it looks neat. The color and how it sits is very interesting to me. It has a lot of potential. Thanks for sharing it. Nice work.

Storn Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. A crane samurai for a Legend of 5 Rings game... And wizardess.

Susano Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. A crane samurai for a Legend of 5 Rings game... Y'know Tribble, there's an idea for one of your commissions -- a "crane" samurai. Y'know, a steam shovel or the like in armor with a huge katana. Sort of like Transformers meets Ronin Warriors (or something like that). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storn Posted June 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. First up, let me lay another Ten Ton Studio weekly challenge on y'all. The challenge is "What Would Hellboy Do on Summer Vacation?". Here is my answer... or rather, this is what I do in the summer a lot and I have even been teaching a wee bit. Here is the link to Ten Ton, so y'all can see what my fellow wacky artists have come up with... http://www.tentonstudios.com/forum/index.php?topic=5691.0 Voting starts tomorrow. gotta join the forum to vote. Next, last night I got the chance to get in on a 4th ed D&D game. Or the prelim discussion, as the books have been ordered by several of us. Hopefully, we can start next week. My character is going to be from a kinda gypsy faction of the Eladrin, but the GM, B., wanted to kick it up to 11 on the weird, fantastic, mystical scale. So instead of wagons and ponies, after a bit of discussion, my "tribe's caravans" actually teleport around, courtesy of the Master or Mistress of Tents. A powerful otherworldly fey entity that supports 6 or 7 of these caravans. Unfortunately, my PC's call to action is the utter wiping out of his family, caravan and Master of Tents. But while we were b.s.ing our way through this all, I quickly sketched the Master of Tents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. I like the master of Tents pic. Really welldone and does have a completely otherworldly feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan D. Hurricanes Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Great stuff! The Hellboy pic is top notch, I love it! (Your only competition is the cheesecake shot from DFY, and that's because, hey, cheesecake. ) The Master of Tents is brilliant, flowing with personality.

Storn Posted June 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. . . . Reminds me of the Kao-na-ji from Spirited Away. Miyazaki was referenced in the conversation we had. I went to B., "oh, have you seen spirited away?" He said "yes."... I said, "kinda like that?" He went "sure..." and I started doodling. The good borrow. Genius Steals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
