Discussion: Character Portraits & Requests

CaBaNa · Nov 2, 2009

Nothing in the secret blocks below has been photoshopped in anyway.

These pictures are taken by TK, my fiance.

Some of the visual tricks were implemented by 5k3Tch.

Wolvesine my friend, also fire-spins, this light thing was an evening experiment.

[sblock=A bunch of pictures that may or may not be thread appropriate...]

[sblock=Wolvesine successfully blocking my spell.]

[sblock=Wolvesine then advances, and attacks, I block.]

[sblock=Another of me fire-spinning]

[sblock=Single staff]

[sblock=Two staves]

So when I started this, TK was grabbing a picture of Kamotz off her camera for me. Since then her computer has crashed so I don't have the thread appropriate thing to insert here...

I'll edit if she ever gets her camera working, and insert the headshot. It's going to eventually be Kamotz' token.

Thanks for making this thread Fragsie, not only is your artwork awesome, it's a nice place for images too!

Here's the list of outstanding requests in order:

CaBaNa - Kamotz
Dunamin - Rhole
Rapida - Brenwar
CaBaNa - Veruzak
Dimsdale - Grakk

CaBaNa - First of all; congrats on the proposal :lol:

, second; those are some amazing photos, i'm really curious as to how you got the spinning blue effect.
With Kamotz, I'm not really sure where to go. It will be incredibly difficult to add clothes to the pics you gave (and have them look half decent anyway), any chance you could find a picture that has the sort of body you want, then i could add in the head and hands from one of the pics you gave?

Congrats CaBaNa!

Warhammer Online has the best concept art. If your character is a human, elf, or dwarf, I highly recommend looking through their stuff for inspiration. If your character isn't one of those three races, then I just highly recommend taking a look, because it's quite good.

Or Drow, or Orc, or Goblin, or crazy mutant guy.

Fragsie:

The spinning blue effect was done with long exposure settings on the camera, and Led lights. Same for all the lighting in those pictures. You can actually see 5k3tch "drawing" it out if you look carefully.
Here are some of the best I could find for a body... really hard to find what I wanted.

Kamotz is tall, but still hunched over, and he wears a bloodstained white robe over chainmail, which is also almost impossible to find a picture of...

Good luck! I'm sure it will turn out great.

[sblock=Picture one]

This is the first picture I saw that had a "hunched cleric" as was my search.

[/sblock]

[sblock=Picture 2]

This is what popped for "warhammer cleric"

[/sblock]

So there you have it, two pictures with clothes.

Here are some different angled heads so you have enough to work with...

[sblock=head...]

That's awesome Fragsie! Thanks for the updated pic, I've now moved the pic onto my character sheet!

Kalidrev · Nov 4, 2009

Hey Fragsie, I've got one more I'd like you to do for me, since you're awesome and full of win!

I have a new character that I just submitted: Mikara and I'd love to get a picture done for her. If you could, take the attached pic and use the clothed girl on the right and make her a drow (but not the purple kind please... I like my drow to be ebon, not blurple

) with red eyes (not solid orbs if you can) and white hair. If you can, see if you can do something cool with that design on her pants (maybe make the design a glowy red?).

Thanks for all of your hard work in the last weeks Fragsie!! I really appreciate all the work you did on Crag!
