The EN World FREE Character Portrait Request Thread!


log in or register to remove this ad


I'm not sure if anyone would be interested, but I can probably whip up some free sketches. I am trying to get my self motivated to draw, but feel like I am slumping.

Post some requests and Ill see if I can help. They will be rough, quick sketches. See my thread for examples, if your not familiar with my style.

Since this thread was inactive for so long, and I have no way of knowing if any of the older requests are still desired, I will take the requests starting after this post.


Thanks
Bastion
 

Well since you asked so nicely Bastion, I guess I'll request something :D

Q8-R3 (Better known as Q) stands 6’8", but is leaner than more modern Warforged. The metals with which he was created give him a dark rustic color that makes him appear worn out (Think HK-47 if you've played KOTOR). He wears simple human clothes and makes every attempt to blend in, despite his obvious Warforged features. He wears a tan cover, to hide his lower face and hide the rest of his metal body as well, on top of which he also wears a traveler’s hat.

Basically even though "he" is a Warforged, the party has no idea. The only non-human features that they notice are his green eyes and hs unusual speech patterns.

Equipment wise:
Backpack
Cystalline Light Repeating Crossbow

Also, if you're daring enough Q commonly employs the help of a small mass of goo more commonly call Astral Construct I. So if you would care to, a small mass of go in a semi-humanoid shape that seems more muscular and buff then it should be (ie. chose buff as a ability)

And finally, a small psi-crystal (Nimble) drawn somewhere around Q would be nice too.
 

If you are looking to do a group shot, you would be welcome to try the four main characters of my Story Hour:

Party Leader: Ischarus (Male Duskblade, smart melee fighter type: longsword or warhammer)
Mind-control/Dungeoneering expert: Rhema (Female Psion, loves to use Charm Person and Mindthrust. Has a crystal sword)
Party Wizard: Semeion (Male Stereotypical wizard, prone to emotional outbursts)
Party Healer: Charis (Female Favored Soul, fights with either a heavy pick or a warhammer)

I can provide more links in the Story Hour if you would like to research this foursome more and don't want to read the Story Hour!
 

So... finally get to play a bit more, so I'll need a char portrait/artwork! ;)

Evromar (Wiz 5)

Evromar is in his mid-twenties, and has a rather intellectual appearance (no beard, and a slightly spoiled/intellectual/bookish face). He usually wear plain robes, reminding rather of an archivist or librarian than a wizard (perhaps with a slightly Asian feel to them, not necessarily), has brown to dark brown hair, and a rather slim figure.
He also wears glasses (with a rather unobtrusive design), and carries a thin silver staff, topped with a faceted crystal (either blue, green, or any mixture of these colours... what every suits your mood/the picture).

He also carries some trinkets with him (one or two wands, some potions, and some books/scrolls). This stuff doesn't need to be pictured, but if you feel that the picture looks too empty or you need some additional stuff, feel free to include some of the stuff (and a bit of the stuff would be nice).

Thanks in advance for anybody who tackles it :)
 

Shaladin

Hello everyone,
I thought I would try to wipe the cobwebs off my pencil and get back to drawing some cool characters! Here is Shaladin. I thought I would start from July requests to get some practice in for the recent requests.

I'm glad to see this thread back, some stunning and amazing work in here. I had posted this one before the big crash, so it probably got lost in the shuffle, so I'll go ahead and put it in here:

Shaladin
The rough blindfold wrapped around the old man’s eyes (55 years old or so) are what most notice at first. He is of average height with a wiry frame, and time has brought no stoop or slouch to his shoulders. His body language is one of tension and control, like a tightly wound metal cord. Shaladin’s face, once handsome and noble (in his youth, he looked like Armand in the movie version of Interview with the Vampire), is now hardened with the passing of the years. His features stand in contrast with others his age from this desert land though, he has none of the wrinkles and roughness they develop. He shaves his head daily and covers himself in a draping aba (desert robes) that was once of the highest quality, but are now worn and slightly torn. His arms are tattoo-scarred with strange runes, raised up in a morbid relief. In his hand, the old man holds a long thin staff made of the weathered bone of some ancient and unknown creature. Lastly, the observant will notice the somewhat hidden monstrous desert-spider (18” across or so) hanging from the many folds of the aba. Both the spider and Shaladin seem comfortable with each other. (This familiar, a tiny spider, will often touch the earth with it’s two front appendages while it hangs from the aba to assist with it’s tremorsense ability).

I'd love for anyone to give Shaladin a try, it would be great to see him beyond my mind's eye :). Thanks guys, anything would be tremendously appreciated!

Bad. Ass.

Good to see you drawing again, Hunter!

Bastion, get on it, man!

Sadly, all my games right now are either World of Darkness or Shadowrun. So unless someone wants to take a bash at an ork gunslinger, a troll martial artist, or an amerind shaman....

Nice... Reminds me a lot of the illustrations in the old Conan novels.

I might have to post the descriptions for my players' Iron Heroes characters in here too.
