Oni's doodles [Update: 08/11/04, or Playing Hero.]

WOW!

Oni your work is awesome.

A friend and I play twin dwarven brothers in our newly started Forgotten Realms Campaign. And we have been searching the web for a good drawing to suit us.

Possibly you would be able to draw one up in your spare time.

Just as a basis for your drawing (if you would like to take this project on)

My character, Barundar's, stats are as follows...
Str 10, Dex 12, Con 18, Int 18, Wis 10, Cha 6

I weild a Gnarly wooden staff with a large odd shaped gem at the top of it innertwined within the wood. I always have my Spell Book handy. I wear a hooded robe with the hood usually down off of my head. And I wear a headband (of intellect) to hold my otherwise untamed hair back out of my face. My beard is long and braided into several braids.

My Brother, Khondar, is more of the classic dwarf.
He is a barbarian who weilds a WarHammer and large shield and wears chainmail armor. His hair and beard is wild and free... no braids nothing holding it in place. He is stronger and more dexterous but not nearly as intelligent as I am. Although we are both as un-charismatic as the other.

Although we are identical twins, he is a bit larger and meatier, I am 4'3" 184 lbs and he is 4'6", 225 lbs. We have Ice blue eyes and Fiery Red hair.

Thanks for your time. And your effort if you take on this task.

GREAT stuff! (I think the goblin is my fave, LOVE the slouch!). I might as well throw in my request/suggestion. Not for me, but one of my players: A female elf wizard/cleric (Boccob). Think librarian/researcher more than adventurer. Long dark hair (in a bun, possibly?), green eyes. Snake (tiny, green) familiar. Thanks!

Suggestions are still welcome, by the way.

You asked I should say I haven't drawn in a long time (as if I were v good in the first place), so I'm not sure how to offer constructive criticicism (use a #3 pencil and lightly stroke it up and to the left! Like that!). With that out of the way ...

The light on all of your characters always seem to be focused as if it were coming straight down on them, as if it were noon. Maybe put the light at a different angle, and you could get lots of opportunity to shade all the crinkles in his pants (back of the knees), curvature of the limbs, etc. and make them look more detailed?

Here's a few suggestions, all NPCs or PCs for moi.

• A youthful halfling. He's well-muscled, with thick, dark brows, slightly curly, shorter hair parted to the side (given a general messy look), and piercing blue eyes. He has sort of a youthful face, and wears a form-fitting black bodysuit. A yew bow is almost always in his hands, etched with various runes along the side. He is perpetually smiling mischeviously. (Drim Soigrim, Male Halfling Rogue 11/Guild Thief 2)
• A tall, barrel-chested man. Very strong, through very old. Long, well-kept hair hangs down, though graying. He wears a soldier's regalia, with a sort of buff jacket (jacket with a flap coming way over, at an angle), and simple pants. That very tunic is deep red. (Darrus, Leader/Founder of the All-Favors Mercenary Co.)
• Kaisa (As described in my story hour, linked in the sig).

Thanks! I'll be keeping my eye on this thread, I LOVE your style, dude.

 

[Azure Trance]

I think when he asks for suggestions, he means 'tips' or 'hints'

 

[Arken]

Wow! Great style I really, really like your work, am just starting getting back into drawing at the moment, I can jsut hope to get as good as you

 

[Zaruthustran]

Wow!

Oni, you rule. Your characters are really full of.. character.

If you're taking requests, I humbly submit my character Jonah the CN Wood Elf Ranger/Rogue/Fighter.

He's a little over 5 feet tall, around 140 pounds. Wavy shoulder-length copper-colored hair, green eyes.

Str 16, Dex 16, Int and Wis 12, 10 Con, 8 Cha. He's attractive, but has favored enemy: human and so tends to put people on edge--when he looks at humans, he looks like a cat watching a mouse. Despite the low Charisma, he fancies himself a ladies man and sees it as his duty to create as many "absentee father" half-elves as possible. He calls these half-orphans "future adventurers."

He wears a few trophies from his adventures: Giant Crocodile-skin boots, Dire Shark-tooth necklace, viper-skin gloves. The hood of his green cloak is lined with jaguar fur.

He wears studded leather armor with armor spikes, a buckler, and a pair of spiked gauntlets. His shirt is simple undyed cotton, his pants dark brown.

For weapons, he has a mighty composite longbow, a handaxe, a magical keen rapier, and a longspear. Once melee starts, he often fights with his rapier while holding his spear in the other hand. But his favorite thing to do is to grapple enemy spellcasters.

Any chance you can draw something like this character? It could be your Good Deed of the Day...

-z, hopeful

If you're still looking for characters I'm currently playing Tiefling rogue, he has black eyes (in other words his iris's are black, he doesnt have pits of black for eyes), and casts no shadow. He uses a light crossbow, but also has a grappling hook crossbow, a short sword and leather armor. The rest I'll let you come up with. Thanks!

Hey there, I haven't forgotten you guys, I've just been very busy with school and everything. Today I bring you my continued experiments with photoshop, I'm going to learn how to paint in photoshop if it kills me. This angry dwarf is Khondar of Barundar and Khondar as described by Juggernaut. This is actually only half of the picture, they are supposed to both be there together but I wanted to go ahead an put something up to let y'all know I'm not dead. For the record, I still haven't figured out a good way to render chainmail (or developed the patience for it either), that stuff is evile (that is evil + vile). Anyway enough blathering from me, here ya go.

Here's something a little different.

My character, Ultra Violet, is a Solo for CP2020. She's about 23, ethnically Chinese, with a slim, muscular build. She looks much younger, around 16 or 17, and uses that look to her advantage.

She tends to wear powered roller blades, like on Jet Grind Radio. She often poses as a skater, heads up to her mark, and blows them away. She tags for fun (bonus points for designing a tag!). She prefers to wear subtly-armored bodysuits with reinforced elbows and knees. Her hair is dyed bright orange, and is in cornrows She also wears retro-looking goggles which can double as a data display. Its gotta have style.

Check some of the pictures here for ideas:

Her pertinent stats are as follows (all out of 10)

Build 8
Reflexes 10
Attractiveness 8
Cool 10
(and others, much lower)
