Member since: 2007Rquest by Razor, who has asked me to have a go at it;
"The tall figure looms like a small giant, nearly two and a half meters tall. His skin is a deep, deep midnight blue, murky, dark blue like the depths of Mon Calamari's deepest seas. His features are harsh and savage, and the long tendrils that slide down his back and over his shoulders are decorated by multiple bronze piercings. A single red eye glares menacingly out from underneath haevy brows: the other is replaced by a small metal plate, bolted into his skull with little bronze nuts.
His clothing is simple. A pair of black trousers go with heavy boots, a tight white muscle shirt strained against his bulging chest, and a standard-issue spacer's vest that leaves his big arms bare. He wears two belts: one metal, studded piece that keeps his trousers up, and another slung much more low, done in black dewback leather and tooled with golden embroidery. A fancy belt, and one that seems to have a dark purpose: where it dips its lowest against the figure's left thigh, a beautiful black holster done in the same style rests, sometimes filled with a pistol, sometimes not."
Again, never tried drawing a Feeorin, but I'm kinda pleased with the result.
I'll have a go at the colour in a while.

You like? Cool!
so far, i think its really really awesome. can't wait to see the colourized version. you never cease to exceed expectations.
any details you need assistance on?
edit: though, looking at it close up, i think the bottom tip of the eyepatch needs to be modified a little. it seems to just be sitting on his face. maybe it could bend up a little, to match the rest of the shape? just the only detail i noticed off on the whole thing, the rest is utterly fantastic!
I really like this sketch, Mercy. You mind if I color it, just for fun? Maybe I'll post it in my blog, if you don't mind.

Razor - good point but that will probably be fixed in the colour/tone version. It's very hard to make something look like it's coming toward you without the use of shadows ;-)
Sure, Asok. Have some fun!
I'm in the process of colouring it now, but you're welcome to give it a go, yourself. I'd be interested to see how our pictures differ in the end result!

I put my version on my photobucket account (I don't want to parade around taking credit for your art!), but you can check it out via this link: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y188/AsokYeesrim/Feeorin_by_Mercy.jpg

Hey COOL dude! Nah, if the requester's cool with it whack it up on the gallery!
I mean, this is how the comic books work, isn't it?
I haven't done much with the colour yet, so I may well post my own version, but I REALLY like yours!
Oh, don't forget to sign it! I'll post up a signature too, if you like...
I've got two versions: one with a background and one without. I added my signature to both. Pick one and add your signature!

Neat, man.
Unfortunately I may be some time with the picture as we've just replaced our PC which means finding all my pictures again, installing PS, getting my scanner working, etc. I'll post it up as soon as I can, though!
im glad this character has encouraged interest: and im sure you're right about the shadows, mercy, i hadn't even thought about that. one of the many, many reasons i'm not an artist, si?
Hey Razor!
No biggie, man. Just something I thought I'd mention.
As I say, though, it might be a while before I get this one done, myself, as I am still having new-computer issued. But I will do it eventually...
Here's the picture with both of our signatures attached.
Sorry this has taken so long!

Okay, I've got the colour version done - thoughts?

Kewl pic Mercy, I like it.
(Sorry for not posting for almost two weeks but my motherboard on my computer crashed so I had to dig out an old computer and load a whole bunch of updates just to get it up to specs. Hope to get my computer back from the shop in a few days.)
-LC :-)
Hey Man, I hear you - we got a new computer weekend before last and blew away the old one only to find that the graphics card for the new machine was shot. Chaos ensued...
I love new technology!
Nice to see you again, anyway!
~ Mercy

No worries! I'll load them up to gallery, then!
