GET YOUR FFXIV CHARACTER DRAWN

[Neko_Yanagi]

I was browsing the thread asking myself "what's the point of sketching CG characters" until i stumbled on Yanagi's picture. Just had to draw that.
Unfortunately i'm on vacation so i don't have big software installed on this laptop, but here's a good ol' cleaned pencil sketch: neko

I wanted to do it without tracing the picture, but it's trickier than i thought.

that looks fantastic! I'm so touched that everyone is trying to draw me... /blush

O,... so that's how you draw the nose. I'm glad someone did that image the right way.

Hey Avraym, thanks a lot for sketching players and here is mine being added to the queue. Please lemme know if this is insufficient. Be well!

Hey Ramesses, could i try to draw that?
Hopefully I won't screw this one up like i did Yanagi's pic.(^_^)

[RedHare]

still won't work ;__;
awww what a pity, I really wanted to see it.

Okay, this time just go to http://eichelberger.tumblr.com
and skip the first post or two. All of the FFXIV art I'm doing is there. I know it's working there, linking to the direct file must be the problem. D:

The god of technology must hate me today lol. Aldora's was coming along great and suddenly, *poof* mid-save, computer crashes and file is ruined. Okay done banging head against the wall. ^^

I wanted to see your version of her! Since we're practically copying it's interesting to see the different ways to draw the same thing. Also, in what way is it screwed up? It looks much better than my discarded first attempt.

By the way, i coincidentally drew Ramesses as well... Maybe i'll go look for someone to draw among the older posts now, since this is turning out to be good practice.


edit: added quote, edited syntax.

WOW!!!!
Today when i clocked out, my dad said he was working late tonight (we carpool together),
So i went down to the graphics department and stole a tablet. After about two hours of doodling with Photoshop I ended up with this.
Tablet-TEST1
I cant believe that i drew that with my own hands....speaking of my hands, they are starting to cramp up. I better go play some FF14 to ease the pain.

(I might continue drawing if my dad stays extremely late tonight.)

I've never heard of the "stereo effect" before this thread. It's kind of neat. I never knew I could control my eyes so well, but unfortunately all the detail is lost because I can't focus while cross eyed.

[Rinoa]

I guess I'm the only person here that takes stereo screenshots.
As for for the focusing, It is possible. It just take some practice.

Cool Rinoa^^ I hope to see some more tablet work~
Nothing's done but here's an update, just wanna show whats coming next.
Neko, this is how I'd go about a portrait from that screen. I kinda think the happy expressions are pretty mild in XIV, especially with what you said about the history and all. I think it fits but let me know what you think and I'll tidy it up with better lines and color, etc.
Caitlyn WIP. Did I mention I was nearly done when the file went corrupted and had to start over...>_<)))) Still cursing my laptop lol.
