Character Select Fan Art Challenge

EEK… that’s priceless. You should do a Gromit Blanka.

I think my Charlie may be a little late. I just bought a ps2 and I have 15 games to start of with (I’m in malaysia… you get 15 right off the bat here). Between MK:Shaolin Monks and Hulk:Ultimate Destruction, i’m pretty tied up now :p.

Tried a looser coloring style with this one, dunno if it works. But I like it thus far.

I added more detail so it looks like Charlie, and i forgot dog tags again.

I drew this with line tool, Rook.

SFMC- Thx

star- Whoa, he’s looks a bit aged now. Good detail nonetheless.

WOW, that’s really good! I wish I could draw like that…lol, I think he has his legs bent a little bit right? lol…but this is wonderful! Amazing…I wonder when Guile comes in and does the same, his is a lighter version is it not

No, they don’t bend because Charlie has a double flash kick and does the 2nd by pulling the other leg up.

I can’t believe how kickass you guys are, man… this’s turning into an “I’m a fucking Pro” Thread!
Vicious - Your sketches are getting more and more loose everytime I see them. Keep at it, man! :tup:
EEK- ROFL! I love your sketches man!
Chain - Awesome inking as usual!
Star - Whoa, a Bald Bison! I like the Charlie, but it’s a new look from the other ones, this could turn into something great if you add a little more depth.
Nova- Man your stuff is really lookin like Falcoon’s man, that’s really awesome!
Matthew K - NIIIICE SKETCH, I really like the appearance. It’s very unique.
Rook - You know what I said on S-c about your Charlie bein pimped out, great composition, man! :tup:
Switcher - Nice lines, man, I really like how the crosshatching went with the colors.

Phew I gotta post more often. I’ll put up a charlie soon, I was workin on that contest drawing. I’ll probably put it in practice junk later on tonight. Peace!

I gave him sora boots, his face looks weird, and he has a hand cist. These are all according to my good friend, and he’s right.

Back to practicing I go.

Here is my nash. Not my best but not my worst. Sleepy now look at everyones tomorrow.

Sup doods.

Star250: Interesting style you’ve got working there. I think it is working better on the Bison than on the Charlie. Interesting decision to make him hatless and bald too. Hehe, he’s gettin fashion tips from Lex Luthor. My critiques for Bison are only a few nitpicks. I think his forehead could be a lighter color like his cheeks, the back shoulder plate could use a little shading like the other one, and his body below the belt looks just a little small compared to above it. Charlie hella gruff looking, like he’s been through some serious battle. The style reminds me of old Virtua Figher art but more detailed. I think his skintones are getting just a little on the bright side.

Nova: Hey man! I saw the sketch versions on SNK-C, and I was wondering when you were gonna enter them for the challenge. They look great with the colors. The others covered the crit pretty well, so I don’t have too much more to add. I think that the muscles on Charlie’s arm are looking just a little odd. I think if his palm were facing that way, his whole arm would be twisted a little more with it so that we see more tricep and less bicep.

blackstar14: Since we only do one character a week, it is going to be quite some time before Yang comes around. If you’d like any of the artists here to do stick art for you, I’d suggest contacted those artists personally. :slight_smile:

MatthewK: Good drawing man! I especially like Bison’s face and psycho powered hand. My main critique is to watch your compositional elements, and try not to place things so that they are “almost there, or just barely there.” For example, Juni and Juli’s heads just barely touching the top of the picture, Bison’s head just barely touching the bottom of the Shadowloo emblem, and Cammy being almost in the frame, but mostly out.

Rook: WTF, mang? Why you leveling up so fast? Hehe. Beautiful Charlie. I really like the way you approached the speed arch thingy, and the pose is dynamite. Good job making a weird ass pose look natural. Hehe, only thing that looks a little odd is the hair strand going up instead of down.

EEK: Sweeeeet. You should toss some simple colors on it. I think it would really bring it out.

Switcher: Looks good. Nice job cleaning up the mark-making compared to the Bison. I think his head is just a little on the small side, but it’s not all that noticable.

VSlash: I really like the lettering you did. The scratchy lines style is working well with it. I think that the lines used around the sonic boom energy could have been a different color rather than black though, so make it look more like energy. His lower body is a bit big for his upper body, but it doesn’t bother me too much with the style you’re using.

SFMC: Good stuff, as usual. I will never figure out how you are so precise and sloppy at the same time, lol. Great looseness. I think the blue ground shadow is throwing me off just a little bit though, since there isn’t really any blue on the shadows on his body.

Man, it takes a long time to type up them critiques, hehe.

Here are my Charlie’s

A little more exaggerated than I usually draw, but I’m reasonably happy with it:

PS- Anyone new who would like to be on the Participating Artist List but isn’t on there yet. Give me your info so I can add it next time I update. Thanks!

you guys are extremly sick with it.

Thats a plan I did in paint shop pro for with the mouse. Anything you see in PSP is basically a result of my random ass scratchy avatar style. Since I don’t really make avs that much anymore I guess you aren’t familiar, and not many people aren’t anyway. But yeah, that was just a plan I colored for fun, the mouse makes wrist hurt too much, plus I’m using Paint Shop Pro, so I usually don’t color in massive detail. Yeah I did draw him with giant MC Hammer pants, his shoes are huge too. I drew the picture a lil too small as well. Oh well, it’s all in good practice.

I like the somersault shell pictures you and rook did, yours is like rooks just twisted and taken to a new crazy perspective level. It would be fun if for like one of the fighters we picked partners and did a collaboration day.

Dan grommit is awesome too Eek.

Even though I’m not a big fan of swooshy weird digital tablet painting, I like your style SFMC. Charlie doesn’t wear his glasses when he fights though. They are purely for style. :tup:

Here’s my Charlie. Messed up the stomach man.

am I the only one who can’t see sfmc’s picture?

Edit: I can see it now. That picture is bad and perfect all at the same time.

the real question is why would you want to see sfmc’s picture? haha jk’ing.

Chain- very good boots man. Rendering this pic like mad eh. I think it looks good. Could use a co0uple of tweaks here and there, but all in all good stuff.

switch- Good pic. Maybe cary your line weight some more. Overall solid shite.

Eek. I heard the movie was the bomb. have to check it out. Good art man.

Dfist is right. My pic of nash is wack.

Great thread guys. I would participate but my art sucks. Keep up the good work everyone it’s fun to look at all the artwork here.

P.S. Rook, youre awesome and your work is inspiring :tup:

:encore:

Woot, website updated as usual.

ak-UMAR: Pretty good man. Yeah, you’re right, the stomache looks a bit odd. I’d suggest looking up some reference pictures for muscles and study them. I like to look as muscles a lot because I tend to have a lot of trouble getting them right too. Another suggestion is to remember that people got hair on the sides of their head too, not just the top, so don’t forget to put some there when doing a frontal view ^_~

Vega-X: Very funny idea for a pic. I like it. Ordinarily, I would say even with his hair down, it shouldn’t be so jagged (unless his barber had something against him), but since it plays a purpose in the concept of the pic, I think it’s ok. :slight_smile:

Dang, after looking at everyone else’s Charlie’s for a while, I realized that I forgot to give him his watch on my pics. Oh well.

is there a site with some good galleries I could use for reference? I really don’t know a whole lot about whats different between the games style of chars :[
