Kinda Fail


This is a terrible picture I know so you can't tell exactly. Sorry, it's a webcam thing. So this one has a case of time limit running out. I was drawing Alisa From Tekken 6 and I screwed up her face and whited out the eye and mouth. Then the timer went off. So we have this masterpiece. Huzzah. Screw it. Looks like shit. she looks half asleep anyway.

Souls! Come unto me!


Ah Nightmare. easily my favorite Soul Calibur Fighter. But not the easiest to draw that's for sure. One of those occasions where I just ran out of time. i'd love to have done the huge monster arm. started it. No finish. Also this version of the character has a very intricate design on the helm I didn't even touch. Maybe a part two? We'll see. First I will needoee more souls...

Lazy Days


Lazy. I did a headshot of a character with very little visual features and mostly black. Is it well done? Yeah. But lazy? Oh yea, I can admit it.

Silence is Golden


Eileen Galvin from Silent Hill 4. If by chance you think Eileen here looks familiar she should. Eileen was the inspiration for the look of Hannah back in her earlier appearances. I actually made Hannah's Middle name "Eileen" in honor of this inspiration. So how did I attempt to change Eileen up so that I wasn't just drawing Hannah a characte I draw all the time? well, Eileen has these light green eyes which I tried to emphasize. The lightness anyway, not the green. Eileen shows up in the story in this dress because she was on the way to a party when she got sucked into the silent hill world. I tried to make her a little worse for wear like she'd been there a while. There's something not quite right with the proportions though. Either the head's too large, or the torso needs to be a little longer. Or maybe both.

Hairball


Sabretooth of le X-men. It's okay I guess. The mouth is off a bit which kind of ruins it for me. Also, the hair on his back (mane?) could be better. looks more like he's on fire.

DESTROY!


And I'm back. Yes I missed TWO Days in a row there. Nice job me. Too bad. What can I say, sometimes life gets in the way. So here's your pic. It's a Sentinel! Yay! Easily the best Sentinel I've ever drawn. Put a lot of work into the head making it just right. I wanted to make scratches and paint chips on it but I just ran out of time. Ah well.

Better Business


In Almost a sequel to yesterdays pic, here is regular Kazuya. Once again, no time to scan, but this pic was taken with my blackberry so looks even worse. I'll get some scans in there eventually. Again, limited time, so no commentary. Overall, not too bad.

Devil!


Devil Kazuya from Tekken. No time for commentary tonight. Overall, happy with this

Redemption!

After yesterday's travesty this one turned out pretty good. It's Ryu from Street Fighter. ZOMG. It's okay. Light years above yesterday but overall okay. His fist is too big though... ah well.

Epic Fail.


Wow. This sucks so hard. This was supposed to be Vega from Street Fighter. Where to begin with what's wrong with this? Well, let's start where I started. The head. Mask blows. The eyeholes look like crappy triangles. The hair makes the head look to big you know what screw going over the entire thing. It's all bad. Terrible. Worst thing I've posted on this blog, let's move on.
