Topic: NintendoLife Artists Thread

I've seen another topic regarding Video Game Fan Art but I wanted to start a thread where anyone who loves drawing can share their own art. Critiques are welcome (just be respectful). I'm majoring in Game Art and I make comic books for fun. I love drawing and really want to put myself out there. I know I have lots of work to do to be a great artist and I strive to do better. Here's two pieces I've worked on since I began attending my college. This is one I worked on yesterday and into earlier today. Took me awhile to work on the trainer. I decided to just use art from Pokémon Dream World as it works better with my art style than the standard Ken Sugiromi's. I've been wanting to do something like this for awhile and I'm glad it turned out good. I regret 'rushing' through it though as the trainer could have looked better had I spent more time. Maybe next time I won't have trouble drawing him again but spend more time tweaking and fixing things. Oh, and he's supposed to look like me (in a 'cartoony' sort of way- like a caricature but not really if you know what I mean. I'll be practicing drawing my favorite Pokémon instead of simply importing them over. I had fun putting in the Pokémon as I had to adjust their height correctly ex. I'm 5'6 and Meganium is 5'11- though I'm not entirely sure they are measuring it standing on it's two back feet; Golem is 4'07 and Carracosta is 3'11 which I made a mistake as it seems that the two are the same height but they're not supposed to be. I also regret not putting Torkoal in as I love turtles and it's one of my favorites. This is one piece I made awhile ago. It was supposed to be a street with a clock tower in the middle (you can at least see the clock tower in it in some form) and working on perspective. Then, I found the ruler tool in Sketchbook Pro and decided to just draw lines and came up with this. You can see different 'faces' in it as well which I thought was pretty cool as one of them wasn't intentional and reminds me of a character from Super Paper Mario. One of my friends said it reminds him of the Black Eyed Peas recent album because of the choices of color I made. This only took me 2 hours to make since it's really simple. I call it "Perfectly Imperfect". EDIT: Fix'd the size of the second picture. Sorry about that TBD.

@ogo79 Maybe you should try a museum or something like that? Imgur might not be the way to go

@Zuljaras What do you mske games with and how did you learn? I've tried with Unity, but I can't understand the coding.
Edit: Oh, and character model designing.

@Matthew010 I make my game with Game Maker Studio 1.4 and now I port it to 2.
I also am not a programer but I managed to learn about variables, conditions, arrays, and little of other things. The language in GMS is GML it is a proprietary language but it is similar to C# and Java/Java script in terms of syntactic.

Unity is with pure Java and C# with custom libraries. It is hard but I will try and learn more.

The most important thing is to read and learn from others. Ask for help in the forums and read tutorials.

This thread has been ignored for too long (once again) so here's some art. I've done quite a lot this month. More than I'm used to at least.

Generation 2 styled custom Pokémon sprites. Pokémon were randomly picked.
Untitled

Bunch of random drawings. Starts with some crossover characters and then I just drew some characters without any reference images. Most of them look nothing like their actual counterparts. I'm really bad at remembering details. I'm still quite happy with most of the drawings since it's something I've barely ever done. I'm used to using a reference image to draw an exact copy of the image.

This last one is from yesterday. My first needle felted creation ever: Swablu. I'm very happy with the results.

@1UP_MARIO

Thanks !

I used 2 softwares + I recorded the strings "live" (I played Cello for 12 years^^)
The 1st one is Reason and the 2nd is Cubase. I have a bunch of VSTs with some cool FM sounds that I like to tweak...
