Everyday Mr. Bone is going to PM me the physical description of a character from Tavern Tales and I'm going to do a quick little sketch based on that.

Up first is Geo.

I also created a blog where I'll be posting these called A Sketchy Situation (http://sketchysituation.blogspot.com/). The Typhoid there is subject to change.

Please do mine ASAP. I have to color a drawing of a character or a landscape scene in Photoshop for my final.

Tell Mr. Bone what you want to look like and I'll do it next. When is your final due?

GM (calling him that in the story because no way does GameMaster match up to his powers/looks) is an interesting design. Looks like a hobo lepruchan.

You can't have a mesh shirt without some nipple.

Why

Teuthida
09-12-2008, 10:54 AM
Heh. Gotta bring that up with the penguin. This is the description I received for you:

Magus is more of a hippie and jokester. He wears a toned down jester hat. He has a unshaved beard (use ure disgression on how much) he wears a chain made of pebbles. His closest is simple mesh shirt.

BreakABone

I decided to go with a hippie idea for you.
Being in tune with the Earth and all. Thought was only fitting.
But told him to make the mesh shirt less gay, which it is... except the nipple. :p

Hmm, he must carry a grudge because for all his life he has largely been rejected and misunderstood by society.

And Bluefire has part of his as his AIM icon.

And personally.. don't know how much of his artwork has been used by me.

I don't believe I ever gave a description, and thats damn accurate as to how I envisioned myself. All I would add it a beard and maybe make the outfit a little more late-victorian, early steam era.

Thanks guys.

Going to have to halt the TT sketches for a while methinks. Got a paying gig right now and designing characters for that before I start the actual comic. I'll see if my employer will let me post them to my blog...probably after the comic comes out. It is rather nice to have the chance to draw some females though.

There used to be a guy on our WoW server, he drew characters for in-game money. They got so popular, that there was a huge waiting list. I got on the list, paid in advance and quit WoW. I was hoping for a nice farewell drawing of my cute Gnome. He never drew another character. My brother got lucky, he got the last one.

Hey BaB and Dan, I met 3 women from New York last weekend. One of them only spoke Spanish (I think 2 of them were afro-American). They were visiting the convention in Dortmund, Germany.

It was funny, when I met them, 1 of them said "Ah! We meet again! Did you have fun??"
"Uhm... yeah... but I don't remember... meeting you..."
Then she said I had a doppelgänger. Who spoke Chinese. I doubt it was Chinese, people aren't often that good at recognizing strange alphabets.

Teuthida
07-14-2009, 11:36 PM
Well I wouldn't be surprised if there were several Angrist lookalikes in NYC who speak Chinese. Saw one of them out of the corner of my eye not too long ago...well he was whiteish, tallish, and lighthairish. I just remember him because my ex (who's Chinese) pointed out to me that he spoke better Chinese than her.

Might be easy enough for them being from NYC to distinguish Chinese. It is for me at least. Whereas some European languages I have a hard time telling apart from one another. Depends on what you're used to hearing.

Angrist
07-15-2009, 09:41 AM
They saw him in Dortmund, and they had spoken with him. He had told them his plans, I suppose for diner.

Here is the evolution of Axon, formally Dylflon. The first was what Dylflon asked for when first designed. When me and BAB decided to turn it into a webcomic started to redesign the characters. Tried for a straitjacketish look but came out looking too princely. BAB suggested ripped clothing and then got the next. The next arose from testing out colors. He didn't mesh with the other Coalition members who were more spandex inclined. A few sketches between that one and the final. Pure spandex wouldn't work with the character so decided to make him a cutter and thus the bandages and kept the coat with the three straps. Ta da, Axon is born.
