and here we go: cep's wonderful little beastie that i had played around with but not finished up. i don't think it's as nice as if cep himself had finished it, but i had fun with it.
Ahh, fuck. I was working on a version of Narusol's weird alien thing, it was turning out nicely, then Photoshop crashed! That's the first time it's ever done that to me! I hadn't saved, either! Dammit! Oh well, I guess I'll start again...
Hey guys, I hope you like this; I really liked Gauss's "Bolthead Action" sketch, and I just wanted to throw some color on it. Did this up at work with a mouse.
I was originally drawn to the sketch just because the revolver-handed guy looked cool to me, and he was about to finish off some beast. Then I caught the eyes of the thing laying on the ground, and I felt very sympathetic to it; he looks very scared to die. Anyway, started running with some ideas and this is what I came up with:
Also, I was having some problems with the monitor here at work, so if it looks very dark try viewing it in Photoshop (if you're interested )
ahah! very nicely done. that's the joy of this concept tag stuff for me, watching people take something in a different direction. bravo hobodactyl, Bolthead looks insidiously good in his nazi colors. i've always drawn him with a fairly bright armor color (as seen here if you're curious ), and it's never really dawned on me to try such a matte/monochromatic color scheme. good show!
cep: glad you liked it. you build your character drawings with a lot of volume, makes it easy to do the detail work to finish it up.
Hey, glad you guys liked it; I'd never seen your other concept before, so I guess that helped that I didn't really see his "background".
I guess by only seeing this picture I felt sorry for the big guy on the ground; I was going to title this something like "Persecution"; I gave the big guy an armband, using the idea of how the Nazis used the armbands in the concentration camps to mark inmates.
Thanks for the sketch Gauss; I'm surprised by how much of an impact it had on me! It got me thinking about some heavy stuff, and being able to convey emotion like that in a sketch is a talent. (I just checked out your site; some really cool stuff there!)
Awesome job with the detail, Sectuars! I like how you defined the skin being pushed back from the pistol. I love his skin, that's really how I was imagining it.
how did my name get into that topic name i wonder..
who is the trickster?!
reveal yourself!
eq? is that you hiding behind that lube tube?
i can smell your weedy ass all the way from here you sneaky bastard..
anyways, dunno?
i havent scanned new shit for 6 months or so. i picked some of this old stuff, more "concept" maybe someone wonna ahve fun with it. dunno, might scan some new ones soon. this stuff is so flat
who do you think put your name in the topic--maybe the original poster/moderator? excellent shotgun, this is exactly the kind of deal that will be perfect for concept tag. i'm going to have fun with one of them... in the meantime you can browse for any other pieces in this thread to play with
brome: shame on you for cheating. the rules clearly stipulate you may not post any more of your old crap until you've participated yourself by tagging something else in the thread. also, when you do post old stuff again, try for something figurative. i doubt anyone's going to tag that nondescript rock type deal.
Tried to get a basic idea of what the rest of Crash's gun toting priest-ish character would look like. Also gave him some funky glasses. And a beard. As you can see, I am zee uber n00blet when it comes to this XD
Now that I've sufficiently embarassed myself, I think I'll go hide under a rock for a while.

Everything starting from 'Perspective and construction' to the bottem would be most helpful in my opinion. But it's all extremely well done.

I LOVE you're take on my shit, You gave him so much personality!
Vahl: good stuff.
I'd join in on this, if I hadn't spilt coke on my pen. Hasn't worked right since.

i liked him better when i thought he just had two really long stabbing arms... guns are good too, though
Gauss > Hobodactyl > Sectaurs
Love the black n red Nazi colorsheme.
@Sectaurs
Looks awesome!
Glad this thread got revived!

quickie:
point taken.
Thought it'd be a cool idea if the previous iterations of the concepts were linked in the "from > to" chain, so you can quickly see the progression.
