New Art for default DC

[manikus]

I would have had the gnome up before I went to bed last night, but I keep hitting a glitch - without getting too technical, every time I try use one particular script that I want to use, it unloads the textures, and to put the textures back, I have to turn off the script. I'll just do something else, no big deal, but last night I was a bit fixated on correcting the issue, and well, didn't get anything done.

Hmm - sounds complicated (I will be fine with my 2D, thanks )

[manikus]

It is a bit complicated, but I'm a true geek, so the more complicated and convoluted the better.

I've been thinking about starting a thread for WIPs (Works In Progress), because I don't mind showing my process and wouldn't mind feedback, etc. But, I don't want people using the unfinished/inferior pictures. I don't want to put a watermark on them, as that may cover up something I'm trying to call attention to.

Any thoughts, oh artists of Dungeon Craft?

All of my mucking around with the gnome last night corrupted the save file. Bye, bye, Mr. Gnome.

I guess I'm starting over. That's not the end of the world, though. I already know what I want to do, so I know what direction to go, and this time I'm going to use a different figure as the base. I'm hoping to get something up today...wish me luck.

[Uatu]

Damn... What happened? That really sucks (I have had a few close calls (overwriting, etc.), but so far have been lucky - it really does suck to lose all your work for something, though.)

As for WIPs... Well, I am thinking of setting up a place to put some line art (i.e. step #2 in my general progress), including those that I have not actually turned into fully-finished color images (step #4 ).

I don't know what I did to lose the first gnome. I save early and often. I do have a couple of renders I did towards the end of the evening that I'll post here in a little bit as soon as I make them a friendlier size.

I'm doing quite well with the new fella, who I've been calling Chomsky, though of course his real name is #16.

[Uatu]

You could also combine those two names to give him a full name, like "Chomsky #16"...

[manikus]

Okey dokey, without further ado, here is our intrepid explorer spic16.

Pic removed for repair.

Hey, looks nice! Brighter than the other one.

Wondering about sizing, though - I guess small pics can be of any size, etc.? Do you have any (self-imposed) rules regarding this?
