[Brunhidden]

Thora says she wants in, but wants to sleep instead of posting, like its all that much effort 

her description- she says use her avitar mostly http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e358/Thora_Thorsdottir/mini-minithora.jpg essentially shes a viking chick, but she gets offended with the horny helmets, however shes pregnant

gender- female
race- unknown. shes never really been much into furry, but i always kinda thought of her as a 'Seljord  serpent' if she were antrho. or humanish, that works too
hair- blonde, butt length
eyes- brown
height- not entirely sure, she does not quite come up to my armpits and people shorter then me also make fun of her height
weight- im not going to even try now, it'll only change by tomorrow
body type- kinda stocky and very busty, pregnant probably isn't really a body type
clothes- either viking garb or she also wears band shirts and tank tops IRL, also finds chain mail bras to be comfy and supportive undergarments
pose and props- unknown, she occasionally poses with a norse style sword, but shes playful and will play along with those around her

Brunhidden:
Human is an acceptable species, and I was wondering if at least one or two would show up. (At this rate.)

Update on the project: Group two is drawn, and sent out for approval. Group 1 is inked, coloring starts soon, and I'm starting to draw group 3.

Group #5
Valynth
Nelix
Cogidubnus
Thora

Group#6
Keaton the Black Jackal
Hazzy
Shazzy
Sienna
Mew?

Hazzy will be drawn in Group 6, but the idea came up to draw him in a group with those others mentioned. I havn't gotten a hold of Mew yet, though, to see if she wants to participate.

thora is in with cogi? i wonder what the odds are they're dueling, unlikely but i know so little about cogi and his mannerisms with his blade

But why would I want to fight your wife? From what I can tell, she is a very nice lady.

Actually, I would like to see more character interactions. If neither of you would mind, I might do that.

Kinda friendly sparring like.

I don't mind, no. By all means.

PS: Taken from chat:

Alteisentieress: I'll probably end up screaming something like "I'M 16 FEET TALL AND DRESSED IN THE CARNIVAL OF MEAT OUTFIT"
WhiteFox: Atle, I will draw that unless you submit an actual profile.

I know what the Carnival of Meat outfit is. And I will follow through.

[WhiteFox]

Sigh.

For the last...I  dunno, three weeks? I've been pretty burnt out. Mostly because developing techniques in photoshop have been a masochistic process. I dread opening up Photoshop. it's somewhat akin to consciously putting my hand on a red hot burner, my aversion is so strong.

Since I'm mostly back up an running now, and the dread of photoshop has slackened in my hiatus, I'll be back at the grindstone.

Anyway, Since I'm going to be getting back to work, I'm going to be building a more comprehensive website (as opposed to the mess of pages I have now) and starting a new thread.

I haven't been able to work on the Cast image project much, 'cause I ran out of printer ink. Since I'm out of ink, I can't print off the char. bios and draw when I do my daily walk down to the café for a cup of tea. (The Café trip is integral to my artistic process.) I can't draw in front of my computer, with the bios up on the monitor, cause it makes me think about Photoshop.

As an offering to those who I may have offended by dropping off the radar (And not updating the status of the cast pic) I will submit a scribble from my sketch book, selected completely at random.


(At some point, I realized that all my characters were B- or C-cups, and something in my head snapped.)

(At some point, I realized that all my characters were B- or C-cups, and something in my head snapped.)

why is it some people only think A-C cups are normal? i live in a world where an F- cup bra occasionally makes an appearance. listen to my wife sometime and she shall go into a rant about shirts, and how they only make shirts for small chested women, assuming anyone with a larger chest must be some horrible butter tub.

sorry to hear about your ink, perhaps if you take a pencil and jot down abbreviated descriptions on like notecards or something, so its easy to take with you and not requiring ink

We find no real satisfaction or happiness in life without obstacles to conquer and goals to achieve.

[WhiteFox]

Ok, so, I'm a big fat liar.

DSOF#10 Isn't SAIA such a nice place?

So, after being burnt out for a week, I somehow managed to put in a solid 6 hours of work to finish inking, do all the coloring, add speech bubbles (Which remains my second most hated part of production) and even hack together some BG's.

As usual, I'm not all happy with it, but there are parts I like. Jade in panel two was awesome on paper, and I love the BG in panel 1. I paid a lot more attention to the scale between Jade and Theo in this page. Also, I figured out new ways to draw wings not once, but FIVE times as I was drawing/Inking this one. As such, Theo's wings are *Really* messed up. His left and right wings don't match in panel one, did an art shift in panel two (I love those wings), and these are completely revised from what was in the pencils. Theo's hair changes a lot too, I'm still trying to get a decent technique down for hair. There is progress, tho. So, I dont' like Theo's constantly changing look, but it just means I'm developing my skills, I guess.

Sorted out a new method for shading, too. A lot more groundwork in the pencil stage goes a long way.

Anyway... I'm not making an HTML page for this one till I get the new site up. Which might be a while.

[Tapewolf]

No screams?  Does the librarian just want a word with Jade as well?

Anyway, I wouldn't have noticed the wings if you hadn't mentioned it.  I'm not sure which I prefer.  But yes, the shading is good.

[Brunhidden]

you know, this comic and what he just said really gives me some..... ideas....

then again dungeon keeper was always my favorite game, cool to think of it as a career/major

the librarian does in fact like some people, shes always helpful to me

What other dungeon is so dark as one's own heart! What jailer so inexorable as one's self!

[WhiteFox]

Ke-ke-ke-ke...

That's not the librarian, just so you know.
