Rapiido - May 23, 2007 08:51 PM (GMT)
Well might as well post this. 8D I mostly/only draw on Oekakis.. >> <<

Melissa McGhee's outfit she sang What About Love in. =3 (I know the pants SUCK 8D but I love the shirt) Last month.

Same outfit/singer. =3 I luff this pic. <3 But this was WAY back in like April/May 2006.

I just started drawin and this came out. 8D The scales took FOREVER. Summer 2006.

I coloured someone else's lineart. =3 I wanted to practice shading. February 2007.

I think they're pretty good =D Your coloring's nice. ^^ However, the head one is sort of weird... but that's just because of the proportions, I guess. XD;
Rapiido - May 24, 2007 07:52 PM (GMT)
Yeah I know. 8D The neck's too small, the chest is too big and the arms are too skinny X3 (But bear in mind this was a year ago 8D)
IceMasterX - May 26, 2007 12:52 AM (GMT)
All very good. Better than I could do, definitely!
Pointy - May 26, 2007 02:05 AM (GMT)

They're all really purdy XD Keep it up!

I did two pics over the Weekend.. of course there's things that bother me over each pic but meh ah well. =3


(This guy look familiar from somewhere...?)

oOo Those are some nice pieces of art you got there!
Your coloring is really good! I can draw.. But I can't color.. Looks like you got both down pat! I like your latest ones, they are ermmm, interesting.. They are just a little off in a few places, like the shading on the girls face seems all blobbed together.
The Melissa McGhee's outfit is great, I like it alot. But the close up of her face could use a little work. Now, I have never seen Melissa McGhee, but I think the neck is just a tad too thick. I think that's why it looks wierd?
That guy you colored looks awesome! I think it's really good and so is your ermm fish thingy? Is it a Pokemon or something? Either way, It's really good! Again, nice work on the shading and coloring.
Alot of your drawings take on a 3D tone, something I haven't really seen from people on forums, so good work!
Man, I wish I could colour as good as you! :lol:
Rapiido - June 7, 2007 09:34 PM (GMT)
Wow that was a long comment. o-O
Thanks X3
Yeah I know I'm not best at shading. x_X I love colouring though. =3
Yeah that one pic I did a WHILE ago. xD I wanna revamp it. =3 I know the neck is SO fat. xD
Yeah I liked how everything turned out there, I hate his face though. x_X And no it's not a Pokemon I just randomly started drawing and that's what came out. =P
Yeah I kinda... passed the cartoon-ish style and went straight to realism... >> Ah well. Prolly why I can't draw anime People. xD
Colouring isn't THAT hard. xD Just practice alot. =3 I've been "really" drawing since 2005... and I did my first Oekaki pic March 2005. I should definitely put some of my OOOLD pics up. *finds them*







(Collab with a friend, I only did colouring)
...I think I just I puked in my mouth a little. 8D
IceMasterX - June 8, 2007 02:05 PM (GMT)
That 2nd rapidash is truly amazing! All of them are awesome, actually, though the first and 2nd ones. . .oculd use work. . .what is that 2nd thing?
Kiri - June 8, 2007 05:01 PM (GMT)
I love your artwork, though I agree some could use some work. ^^ Shading is pretty good, coloring is really nice--I like the fact that you draw realistic people. I can't. Heh, I can't draw a realistic person for the life of me.
As for your old pictures, seeing as you made them two years ago, you've improved greatly. The first rapidash... could us a little work... But I definately love the Wailord (great perspective!) and the second rapidash. Anatomy seems fine, except for maybe your oddish, whose upturned leg looks a bit painful, and the second Melissa McGhee picture, which I won't comment on because you've already had alot of feedback.
Anyways, great job. Keep it up! ;)

IceMasterX - June 8, 2007 06:44 PM (GMT)
So that's what it was! A Wailord! *shot*
It could definitely use work, but considering you made it 2 years ago, it's okay I guess.
Rapiido - June 8, 2007 11:07 PM (GMT)
That Wailord was one of the very first pics I ever drew. xD
And by the way the first "Rapidash" is SUPPOSED to be a Ponyta. 8D Guess that's what horrid anatomy gets you. x3
And I realize that all those last pics are HORRID 8D I dun care what criticism they get. x3
Rapiido - June 9, 2007 01:22 AM (GMT)
DOUBLE POSTNESS =OO
I'm currently workin on somethin on Nightmare Valley Oekaki. =3 I like how it's coming so far... and I'm gonna RUIN it once I start colourin. 8D Ah well.

It's Lucas/Kouki, the male hero of Diamond and Pearl. =3 I could NOT draw his scarf and his beret looked weird so I left them out. x3 I'm making him realistic. 8D Or attempting to.
Satoshi - June 9, 2007 01:59 AM (GMT)
Woah OO That is really wierd! I just finished drawing an Anime version of Lucas/Kouki last night! (along with ash, gary, brock and max)
It's very good and the blue outline is a nice touch. Your realism (is that what it's called?) drawings are really cool. I don't see alot of people who can take game/anime characters and make them real-looking. Great job!
Oh, yeah, just wondering, do you draw these by hand, scan them to your computer and then color them? Or do you draw 'em digitally on the computer (I find it really hard to do) and then color them?
Rapiido - June 9, 2007 02:30 AM (GMT)
I draw everything on Oekakis. xD (Other than sprites... which I do on Paint)
Thanks though! X3 Yeah I had no idea how to realasticify his hair. 8D So I just tried it. =3 I like how it worked though. And the blue outline (....well...that's all there is so far....) is the sketch. xD I wonder if I should do his backpack to.... meh I'll find that out when I work on it more. =3

Ponyta dun have horns. It's still a beautiful Rapidash.
Rapiido - June 10, 2007 04:35 AM (GMT)
That's it's ear. xDD Not a horn. My anatomy was HORRID back then. =3
Satoshi - June 10, 2007 07:57 PM (GMT)
Wow, this is going to seem like a very stupid question, Rapiido. What's an Oekakis and how do you draw on it? :P
Also, props on the Lucas drawing. The coloring is coming out really nice, but I suggest you repost it when it's done, because I don't think alot of people will notice it.
Kiri - June 10, 2007 11:18 PM (GMT)
An oekaki is a site (persay), that provides applets on which to draw on. Once finished with the drawing, you can click 'finish' and the image will be transported to a spot where you choose its title, description--etc. After that, it's posted on the site and members of the oekaki can view it and/or comment on it. That's a very poor explanation... maybe you can see for yourself?
EV has its own oekaki...

QUOTENESS X3
I know the eyes look hideous, sue me. 8D
IceMasterX - June 13, 2007 03:26 AM (GMT)
It's actually really good. ^^
I like it.
Rapiido - June 24, 2007 06:14 AM (GMT)
OMG I feel so bad.. D= It feels like the only reason I come on here is to show art/sprites... D= I try not too... but usually I'm just scrollin around and I see one of my art topics and realize I've done somethin recently... D=
....back to the other matter though.... I DREW SOMETHING ELSE (Yes I got a lotta time on my hands)

Ma new charrie, Brian. =3 (Yes he IS gay if you can't tell by the sign. xD)
Kiri - June 24, 2007 12:00 PM (GMT)
Oooh <3 He looks pretty awesome.
Zephyr - June 25, 2007 01:11 AM (GMT)
...Eh, IMO you don't need to openly state MY CHARACTER IS GAY every time you draw him (or even when you introduce him) but I suppose it's your art. I like your style, though. :3 It doesn't look awkward at all. Looks quite natural. I'd reccommend emphasizing the folds in the clothing more to make it look more natural.

xD I'd just think people might question the sign there.. so I'd just tell them ahead of time.. xD So...yeah..
I KNOW, the folds. I CANT draw folds to save my life. xDDD (Then again a year ago I said I couldn't draw a proper lookin human to save my life... >>) Ah well. x3 At least I'm glad to know I'm improvin.

Your pics are really good, I like the ones you did in 2005. I like your mitolic, too. I can't see some of the pics on the top. (That stinks)
Your really good at shading. :)
