On the 30th I will have been here for a whole year, so to celebrate I'm making a PJ-themed piece, with various familiar PJ faces. So far I have Brian and Larwick:



Obviously I'm adding other people too. I was going to have Sedge in the middle behind the sign, and everyone else hudled around the sides.

The lighting is going to be similar to the Super Mario piece in my gallery except the entire floor is going to be one huge white light, with a starry night sky above.

Maybe Sedge should be holding up the sign.

what about little 'ol Demon?    I look like death, a skull dude in a robe, just to give you a little bit of insight into the greatness and awesomeness that is Demon.

Lmao, this'll be awesome. Get on and add some more guys... now!

Although i believe the rustbug's farthest leg would have the back of the shin area showing, rather than the sideview.

 

PS/ by guys i meant 'friendly people' in general, be them male, female or it.

Small update:



Is the leg better now Larwick? I added sedge, blick and alkaline. I tried to turn Brian and Larwick into marionette dolls controlled by sedge but the strings looked horrible, so I'm just going to keep his arms outstreched as if he were trying to kill everyone with his B.O., lol.

I was just wondering is blueberry pie's fish disc shaped or spherical?

Next I'll probably add snader, jalonso and Ensellitis

Oh, who can spot the subliminal message? Heheh.

Dammit Lawrence, add the strings when you colour it, i love the idea.

And the leg should probably look more like this:

...../  \
..../    \
...|      |
...|      |
....\    /
.....\__/

Rather than...

.....|     |
.....|     |
.....|     |
.....\     /
......\   /
.......\_/

Or whatever.

Update:



Added Snader, Ensellitis and Jalonso (stood dangerously under ensellitis' foot, lol). There are a few things I need to work on with jalonso though; he doesn't look right to me right now. I tried to make snader look all cool, but I might've gone over the line and made him look a bit gayish. I still have yet to add everyone, and I definitely won't be able to finish this in time, but better late than never I guess.

I was thinking jus slighty bigger... so the legs could be a bit more defined. But I guess you're right, this is more comical.

maybe you could have me leaning against lar, instead of sniffing if i smell fesh?

and be sure to put yourself in the picture too. after all its YOUR year.

allso, the composition needs something to balance the weight on the left side of the image

Beetles have the legs coming from the same place. You have more insect legs than beetle legs now. The size is great and the ens leg stomp is awesome, thx.

Blueberry_pie, I want to put you in, but I need to know whether your fish is spherical or disc-shaped.
Snader, yeah I'll probably put myself in, but in a subtle inconspicuous way.
jalonso, what on earth!? Goodness, no! Ugh, I am appalled! (jk, you won). I'll look up images of beetles to see how they are formed, that should work.
Saboteur, all in good time my dear.

Personally I'd go with spherical... see whichever one works out best for you :]

Solve all your emo problems by receiving a good old kick up the arse, courtesy of Snader! Heheh, just kidding souly, keep away from those razors!

So anyway, that's Shark on the back of the rustbug (with his current avatar character) pointing and laughing. And I've changed jalonso to be standing up. I'll add his bulging eyes when I colour it.

I was thinking of having blueberry pie as the moon in the sky. (hey that rhymes)

Also, the bottom looks empty and the only reason it's not cropped is because of alkaline's burger. Should I crop it and move the burger elsewhere (losing the joke)? I really think trying to fit people into that lower gap would just end up with a kind of crude composition.

Next I will add someone on the left gasping at the sight of jalonso. Probably MoD.

Also: I really want to actually do that "floor = light" idea I mentioned, but I don't know if it would really work out well. Does anyone have any ref pics where the entire floor is lit up? I'm definitely putting the main light source underneath but I'm considering just putting strips/rows of lights or something.

Plus: there are quite a few people who I'd like to put in but I don't know how to represent them. For example Faktablad.

Damn I just realized, I could've done SplatPixel as a marionette doll controlled by sedge.

I hope the alk/burger doesn't move. You could consider expanding the canvas on the bottom and continue adding to create an oval? This latest update is looking great. The snader/souly mini scene is funny.
