Hey Charlie, good to see ya here  :)

Hope you bring some more of your masterwork into GW2G

[Tommy's]

Yay, now I can choose to reply here or at Nolani :p I really love the smudgy wet effect you have it, looks great. Only thing that bothers me is your signature over there. Doesn't seem to be the right place :p

[Mesmertron]

Pretty nice work, A little color scheme would make it even look better i guess.

Btw. is you avatar Sonic and Miles "Tails" Powers?

[Charlie Dayman]

Wippie. Self portrait, character drawing, and Canthan armor concept design.

Made me think of this

[Doctor Overlord]

Terrific pieces!   This forum is gathering some really talented artists, I'm looking forward to all the cool GW2 fan art when the game is released (and being inspired to improve my own scrawling lol)

[Archaes]

Great...another GW artist that's better than me. :qq:

*Cough*

Hahaha, sorry. Your art and concept designs are very profession looking. It's great to have another artist around on the forums. :)

[Charlie Dayman]

Thanks for the feedback.

Hour +10 min sketch of my ele with the new Wintersday hat.

[Zungx]

Wow, these are incredibly well done, good show indeed.

[actionjack]

Pro Work.  

Can I get your autograph?

[Trusty]

Holy Moly! That's one awesome "sketch" (sketch? Really? It's too good to be a sketch!) of your elementalist. And I absolutely love the wallpaper! :D

[Doctor Overlord]

Very nice fiery image!   Color and composition are excellent!   All done with Photoshop or do you use another program?

[Charlie Dayman]

@aj: Lol, sure.

@Trusty: ty

@Overlord: All done with Photoshop CS3.

More progress. Wanted to keep the face mask from my original idea, but it wasn't working out in this angle. Went with a sort of layered plate mail on the face to keep with the rest of the design.

He mad.

@Trigger: glad you like it

@AJ: "Just so you know, this armor does not protect my feelings."

Re-uploaded the picture with a few minor additions. Don't feel like image spamming this thread. Keeping the fur strongly contrasted for when I import this into Maya and animate it.

[TriggerSad]

It'd be nice to have the older version up though, for the sack of compare and contrast. Though I think you're right about spamming the thread with images... Unless they happen to be awesome! ;)

I'll put together a WIP picture later on. There's a whole bunch of them since the first version of this was for a class mid-term. Once I find all the versions again, I'll re-upload.

Final progress shot before I add re-do certain parts and animate.

I am in love. :o...with your art. :D

[Charlie Dayman]

Thanks, glad you like it.

Getting back to Trigger, here's a really crude progress slide. Couldn't find the completed version of the class project.

I planned on making it an armor design. Though the main problem is that I had to draw my self-portrait separate from the actual background I recently added in. Easier keeping a continuous flow in your work when its just one piece rather than treating it as two.

Animate?  I must have missed that in the previous posts, are we going be seeing something like the ArenaNet game art/painterly animations?

[Trusty]

Nice background you made behind the warrior dude!! :surprised:

Dude, you're bloody brilliant! I love this latest version and I can't wait to see it with all its moving part! :o

That was dumb of me. I forgot to include this picture into the progress slides - made sometime early last year. This was the base idea of what I created the new work on - my main toon, Canthan army in the background, etc. Only except I didn't feel like adding the Afflicted into the foreground of this new project.

I liked it back then, but I really don't care for it looking at it now.

That's because all my notes are pages from a coloring book.

Something like that, though not nearly as advanced. I'm working with Macromedia, and I'm sure compared to the software Anet uses, is pretty crude in comparison. I also don't have much experience with animation; the only other time I've used it was for the 10' Halloween art contest.

Should look cool though.
