We'll probably want to put this on pause and wait for Baphnedia tomorrow at this point.

In the meantime, I'm going to see if I can throw together a decent character pic. I'll probably only bother posting it if it's half-way decent.

Heh, i made one when i was bored. Made both pic's with a online prgram called the 'hero machine'. So modfying is pretty easy. Make the thing look the way you want, take a screenshot, crop out any unneccesary crap.

Old standard piccie..

Newer pic, with Godien's sword.

Assuming the guards use a traditional broadsword, of course. :lol:

The program's a bit limited though, can't change pose. :P

Useful, though.

Cool. I just got off of work and have some stuff around the house to take care of. So... I'll be essentially doing chores.

Update to come sometime tomorrow (as the post I made was meant for me to take Memorial Day off, and I am).

The other thing is that Outwarddoodles, needs to create her character description before she jumps in.

Time to get to work...in teh house!

Booya!

Finally got it done:

Sure takes a lot of time and research when you don't know your anatomy... or hair... or clothes. *whew*
:lol:

It's not anything great, but I'm pleased. This is my just my second computer-only drawing (the first was my avatar).

(I've also updated my character page)

You did that on the computer Vilk? :o

How do people do that.... :P

Yes, I too bow down to your mad computer art skills, Vilkacis.

I use:

1) A LOT of reference pictures (and that means finding them first),
2) A LOT of attention to detail,
3) A LOT of time,
4) patience, and
5) A good Wacom tablet (Intuos3 6x8 --Love it!).

It took a long time, but it eventually loaded for me (I had to choose view image).

It's amazing how close you were able to get with that program--a white tiger, even.

Meh.

I'm surprised it came out anywhere near that good--and it took me all day!

(I had to build him from the skull up)

Also, I couldn't make him look happy, no matter what I did.
:(

It has a 'companion' function which can through in a animal.

If you are going to run straight up to the Hospitalers, just say so - I'll start the next blurb if that's the case.
