Was drawing in the classroom yesterday and kinda got the idea for this guy, c n' c please, rating would be nice too.

7 colors with background color counted with, I think it's one of my lowests color works yet, might add some more contrast between some of the shades.

Jaws look messed up, other than that i think its nice. :O!

Myomoto · #3 08-18-2004, 01:46 PM

Yeah the jaws a bit too large, but I couldn't really find another way to make it ;(

I like it, except the eyes.

Use 2 colours more, leave some space between the eyes...I think skulls don´t even have eyes

It's not eyes, it's shades :O
Any ways, I'll try to work a bit on it.

perfect for a flash animation based character.

Resized the jaw (still needs a bit of work I guess..) and tried round the skull a bit more, added a pixel more between the eyes, and recolored and reshaped(one) the teeth. The new one is to the right.

Your jaw is down much. lower it to the point where it's just in the point where the teeth meet the actual globe shaped part of your skull, if you understand, and it's too wide, too.

Might want to add some depth to the eyes and the nose. I'm not pleased with your jaw, seems too bulky.

You mean I should remove the top round part? o.o draw a red circle or something, please.

And to Scott, I'll look into it

Edit: Ok, I've changed the hole front, and looks sooo much more like a skull now, thanks for the image Scott :]

Crono · #15 08-18-2004, 09:59 PM

much more realistic, need to fix the eyes and nose perspectives

I think it's really cool as it is... reminds me of those lava skull thingies on Super Mario on SNES.

Myomoto · #17 08-18-2004, 10:22 PM

Been fixin' I also thought I would make his shades a bit more, "far out"

Crono · #18 08-18-2004, 10:29 PM

Make it dark purple with a glow 8]

Your skull has a cartoony feel, and in the end so did mine, but I decided I would show you some of its problems:

I started by removing your jaw, so you could see the the skull itself was designed poorly, now it's not the entire thing, just a few things.
-The upper teeth area sticks out too far, and not down far enough!
-The bottom kind of... well it's too round, but I'm sure my version will illustrate it better!

I started to fix this, compare 1A with 1B and you see what I mean, I hope.

Now that I had repaired these two problems I tackled the eyes, yours looked like it was wearing glasses, sunglasses at that - your eye sockets are just too dark, that's no big deal. I matched your colors as best as I could (using paint, ofcourse.) and began working on your eyes, or the skull's eyes, mor appropriatley. Once again refer to 1B

I added a little detail on the top, and sides, since I didn't like the way you didn't add some - look above the eyes, and at the bottom of the skull. You'll likely see it clearly, compare 1A to 1B

Well, now that that was done I started on the jaw, Although I didn't keep your original jaw, I made one more suiting for it for the comparison (keep in mind my jaw is horrible, aswell, but I'm too lazy to fix it...again.) Ok so your jaw is all wirey and such, what I did was I clost the mouth, I didn't keep all of the teeth but I decided a fair amount would be nice, since skulls do usually keep their teeth. (unless they died with lots of teeth)

Compare 2A to 2B, you will see the differrence, and here it is.
