    Quick WIP of my character that I've bin thinking of since Tim did a hint hint nudge nudge in the past stream's This will probably be just quick render of a character before I do a Full illustration and I can come back to this for reference. I'm supper stocked for this contest

    I found the page for the old battered bunnies contest, but I haven't had luck with finding more specifics about the world these guys live in. Does that exist?

    Doing some thumbs for hair and face designs

    I was wondering are we allowed to combine 2D & 3D elements into our submissions? Or would you prefer  everything be drawn?

  • Jonathan Miller(jonathan-miller) replied

    It's in the old community archive OVER HERE. It's a great way to get some inspiration for the new contest!

  • jazze replied

    If I have time, I'll try this again! I got some very good feedback on how to improve what I'd done before. ...Haven't drawn in a while, but maybe I can think up something!

  • Jonathan Miller(jonathan-miller) replied

    Starting with the scene this time, I think it'll help me keep the characters grounded when I add them in.  

    Two different views of the same place: A bar with pool table and slots along the back wall. I'm thinking kinda like a gambling den for their hangout. Simple 2 point perspective, viewing from pool table or from end of the bar. I think I'll be using the second view.

    Shouldn't there be a logo for the Kay-9 that we can incorporate into our designs? The Battered Bunnies had one.

  • quetzalkarloatl replied

    Can it be a traditional artwork????


  • iamknot replied

    Yes, it can.

    just a thumbnail sketch of my KAY-9 of choice.

  • Sam K(axegirl) replied

    It looks really cool and I love the background. I think you should define the weapon more though. Good work!

  • Lauren (peach) replied

    Since I've already submitted an entry, I'm going to grind out concepts until I run out of steam.

    This is the composition I'm working on this time.

  • Sam K(axegirl) replied

    is there anywhere I could see your art? Like deviant art or instagram? You're really good!

  • Dore Diskin(nightchanger) replied

    I'm going with an oriental japanese look. I see that most go with 20th century european clothes. I wonder if it'll be acceptable.

  • Sam K(axegirl) replied

    A little sketch of my character. Defiantly going to change the pose and I have a hard time with colors so I'm not sure about them.
