Voldearag Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Darn. I was thinking simple outline sketches like this would be a ten minute project for someone who knows how. I'm sorry to hear otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreedomInMoonlight Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Heh it is a ten minute project but I'm a perfectionist and would do it over and over and over again until I had fifty versions of it also I'm just gonna be honest here being good at art does not mean having self esteem I have LOW self esteem in my opinion and in just about everyone elses. Im too scared to put my art out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voldearag Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Oh no, that means you're a professional. Professionals are doomed to think everything they make is terrible, and often don't allow other people enough opportunity to tell them otherwise. You're already too far gone to put your ability to use, I'm very sorry. I have a strand of experience with that stitch myself, and I can sometimes shove around it by creating something which I think of as bad on purpose, so that it's so obvious that it's bad that nobody who sees it suspects that this was the best I could do. That's probably not helpful right now though. Derok's drawing is pretty good though, just not really the tone details, those could use a redo and thinner lines.

FreedomInMoonlight Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I guess I could make and upload my own version of it. Meh why not Im bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreedomInMoonlight Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 http://i.imgur.com/5SpaSQ0.png Ok Doing that made me realize two main difficulties in making art for this mod will be freaking khajiit heads and makeing female argonians distinctively female without the boobs. Secondarily even with screenshots for reference I couldn't draw the khajiit it took an hour just to refine Miss firemage here and honestly I still feel like its not done and looks crappy. Also I did all of this with a trackball mouse in windows paint on my windows seven laptop. That was exhausting. I seriously need a tablet or something. -sigh- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derok Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Do you know what stylized means? It's supposed to catch attention and not be 100% accurate. But since I'm an hobbyst and you are professional, you may be more experienced than me.I'm not saying that you aren't right on the criticism, but I haven't spent 10 minutes on it. I'll work more on legs.Do you have photoshop or gimp? I could send you the original file.I actually wanted to make the khajiit female to make it more distinct, but then I remembered about the rules... Not sure if it's a good idea anyway.

FreedomInMoonlight Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I don't think if its stylized anyone would care and why is everyone saying im professional Im just I dunno I havent done anything for money and while most people say Im good I do have artistic weaknesses in the form of computer art and painting and while Im into what I do I don't see the possibility of my being professional at all. Anyway thats beside the point it wouldn't take long to redefine the features on a touchscreen computer or with a tablet and while it doesn't have to be one hundred percent accurate its also good to be true to the included details. I might try hand drawing a version of it as well but I may or may not upload it as I will probably be doing that during my free time at school today(aka when the teachers are talking). I have a school iPad and can email it to myself during school Ill see what happens there. Anyway my recommendation would be to make a male and female of both of them and have the words in a semitransparent layer above them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drohung Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I'm not sure how good I am at digital art, so I'm also going to try my hand at the banner. I'll probably be using someone else's banner art, because I suck at digital as far as I know, but we'll see how it goes. Damian hasn't messaged me back yet so we have time.

Derok Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) What do you think about my banner anyway?Also keep in mind that it's supposed to be used as icon so it will be much smaller than this. The styilized style also makes the characters much more noticeable, making a realistic painting unnecessary.What would look as icon:http://i.imgur.com/kKj0uKW.jpgSo we either use something like this or a screenshot.Anyway, upload the mod when your stuff is ready and forget about Damian, he may take ages or never answer again. I know for experience, even if it's showing on his profile that he was active some days ago. Edited January 8, 2015 by Derok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starfis Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Looks plausible, you should also prepare a picture for Hot Files so it doesn't cut any important parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
