[Soulfrog]

teyekanik : I really dig the textures!

Photoshop 6
Way too long, but it was fun :)

Double long-knives, and stuff... :bashful:
Have a good New Years... see ya all next year!!!

[Snowball]

only 2, 2 cool ones at that. Here is my addition, I guess her wings of death would be considered her Fairy Weapons, lol.

I encountered many hardships when doing her folded arms..I guess I should have used a ref.

[Hamsta]

Damnation on my connection!
Anyway here is a member of the "Heavy Ground corp." on a black beetle tank.
These guys are in charge of ground perimeter control, they are equipped with a crossbow and armor piercieng arrows.
Painter 45 min or so.

Soulfrog - is that a bondage fairie? :perv:

[rasdasa]

It looked cool in my head, but the freaking "taunt" strings make it seem like a pogo-stick-bow for a 12 year old. Granted, one with a killer edge, but nyah...
teyekani, very ill textures.
Soulfrog: I see you've recognized the real weapons *grin*
Snowball: Very cool pose, even if the fold of the arms is screwy. Great attitude.

Is the DSGbot dead? Where's the new topic?
Happy new year anyway. 365 daily sketches on the way :bashful:

[Soulfrog]

While DSG Bot is recovering from the righteous bender it had last night, some crits to idol away the time :

Snowball : I enjoy your linework immensely. Boy do I hate conceptualising arm placement aswell :^^;: . Cropping the image down to something that sits more snuggly around the figure would maybe make her seem less small :wink: . Also a rule I was taught way back at Graphic Design School : try not to crop a figure below the knees/ below the elbow unless you absolutely have to. Something to do with stability and negative space being skewed.

Hamsta : I like the idea of using insects as mounts. The red insignia shining through the armor is an awesome touch. The perspective makes me have to look at the image for a while to discern whats going on. But in that time I found I liked it :) ( a battlefield aspect validates the destructive nature of your subject - u were going for that right?) - on the bondage fairy thing - if u want her to be, she is :)

Jack Frost : LOL - Nice whit. Disney would be greatly displeased with you actually adding character to well, their characters. Giving her a pirate peg leg puts across her mood very well ( still a gigglin'). Gatling guns are just too damn kewl, giving one to a fairy LOL! Plus giving her punk green hair... about this character a lot I like, yes!

Radasa : What an incredibly strong and emotive pose. *ENVY*
The bow size and orientation makes me think that the bearer is a lot smaller thou - which actually works for me. I really like the idea of a "half-bow" - one side is a blade the other is a bow - did I understand this right? NICE!

franticflame : I like the grace of your figure, something funky like "Opening Lotus Blossom with Blade" in Kung Fu, right?. The negative space you created with the arms and head is however dummied down immensely by the wings ( which cut them into smaller less dramatic negative spaces ). Lighter tones come to the foreground and darker tones receed into the background and the wings being such a cool blue - confuses the orientation in space the figure takes up for me. Nice conceptualization.

[Hamsta]

just because DSGbot is down, or because I have the flu dosen't mean I should be too lazy, so here's another
PS 30 min
http://img19.exs.cx/img19/1980/632fairyweapon23rp.jpg

[rasdasa]

Soulfrog, yup yup, that is absolutely right. I was trying to put empahsis on the bow so I made it f'in big, but that's only after I realized I had put in too much time on the character/pose... ehem...*shrug* :^^;:

[Oddo]

Rasdasa gets a cookie from me on this one :). Nice bow.


Me.. when everything else fails, go clean and simpe. When I was little always thought fairies would use sewing needles :).

5 minutes ( hmm could have been upto 10 though :P ) blue lead 0.5 clicker on printer paper :).


Image should load here: ( Hit reload if it does not)

Hi! I'm new to CA.org and, of course, the DSG.

Great topic to start on, heh... hard one.

I used Painter 8, took about an hour, and definitly slacked off at the end (cause I'm tired and must be off to sleep... :zzz: Slacked off on the left leg and the lights and stuff, and the hair.. most definitly.

But I hope it's a good enough first post! I've watched this group for awhile, and I'm constantly impressed by what you guys churn out on a moment's notice. I hope I can keep up with the rest. :confident:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v608/nazgulofsamhain/daily%20sketch%20group/faeree.jpg

[Sterlingcrispin]

DSG: Todays topic is Creature: Half human, half Vehicle

pulled it from the suggestion bin, gonna start on it now. I figure if this keeps up at the rate its going DSG will be dead at the end of the week.

[xStevex]

can he do that?

[Sterlingcrispin]

i just did :P drawing anything is better then drawing fairy weapons for the 5th day in a row, you dont have to join me if you dont want :p just trying to get something going here other then the same topic over and over

/edit maybe it would be better to post the new ones into the topic suggestion thread (2) so this one doesnt get cluttered with non-fairy sketches

Temporary Daily sketch group::
open for anyone to join, please do :D
http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?p=377475#post377475

Im going to just grab topics at random that look good and make a list in the thread if anyone has any ideas on how to make it better while we wait for the bot to come back up let me know.

[krakel]

heres my theory...

"IF I WAS YOU I WOULDNT POST THAT NEW TOPIC!!"
about 10-15 min sketch

[firematador]

some thumbnails...i like the one w/ the bow....i might make a final render of that one..but what do you all think?

[firematador]

oh that sux...how do i post to this thing

[rasdasa]

You need to go to a host like imageshack.us, upload your file/pic, then copy the URL and paste it with the inclosure included right into [I]this text field
So if I had a pic uploaded, I'd copy the url, which would be something like [IMG]http://www.whateverthehellh.cmo/fdajfh.jpg[IMG] (except the final brackets would have a "/" infront of the IMG, I just can't put it in because the site software thinks I'm trying to upload a pic...t

[firematador]

thanks a bunch rasdasa....lets give this a try

[teyekanik]

ey, goran.. you get better everytime man.. gj

we gotta chat about painter one of these days...

[teyekanik]

I think the bot needs to be reset for the new year.. I remember this happening before.. oh well.. they're probably busy setting up for the workshop. Dont lose interest though. Last time it happened it almost killed the DSG. So hold out! Maybe PM a moderator.

[xStevex]

crap, the millenium bug is only really taking affect in 2005, ruining daily sketch group globally.

[Steph]

maybe a bit too bright?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v226/pokoa/sketche/dsg632-fearyweapon.jpg

I think most everyone's drawings have nice postures! thats whats fun about fearies: you can twist them all around (but then again, im not a big fan of fearies...c'mon new years= new topics! i want to get back into dsg.)

[kraschtm]

do you really think she can hurt somebody intentionnally?
http://kraschtm.free.fr/albums/trans1/fairy_weapon.jpg
15 minutes sketch

I knew somebody who wanted to sell weapons to fairies... he made his fortune in stapler selling...

[goran]

teyekanik-thanks man that's comforting.
kraschtm-very cool

Hamsta I absolutely love this !!!!

[Hamsta]

Glad you like it Mad, and glad to see you posting, although you could have been all over the place and I might have missed you. Still crazy for you guys?

[Digitalmar]

My first art contribution on this forum ever! :teeth:

Quick sketch(20 min) of a fairy with a Q-Tip ready to rip an eardrum to shreds!

http://www.rgv4x4.com/mariano_files/qtipfairy.jpg

[-=Mythix=-]

Well since DSG bot has been dead for awhile , thought i would join the fun on this one ^^; Here is my fairy's weapon...the Pixie's Boom Stick !...... :^^;: looked better in me brain...oh well. Enjoy~

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v482/Myth1x/Pixie_Boom_Styk.jpg

[Steph]

-=Mythix=- your fairy could crawl into my cannon for combined BOOM power!

Digitalmar I love your idea. in older stories, fairies were more of a pesky ugly mischievious thing and your drawing really portrays that, as opposed to todays glamourous fairies (that im guilty of myself, heh...)

kraschtm wow.. just wow! i love the movement in your sketch, i can almost see her arms shaking !

[HexKrak]

I'm back. Its sad the dsg bot seems to be acting up again. Well it gave me time to contribute anyway. So here's the rough, hopfuly I'll have time to refine it later.

[Satyrist]

I realize this is really late, but I haven't really had a chance to explore the forums until now, and I liked the concept for this daily sketch. So here's my take:

[Sterlingcrispin]

Attention :P

If any of the newcomers would like to, we've set up a small temporary sketch group while we wait for the DSG bot to come back online. Your all more then welcome to join us

More of a relic weilded by those favored by the fey rather than a fairy's sword.

[Kailaan]

Well I went for a more faerie court type weapon, subtle yet powerful. Or something like that.

Been a long while since I posted here..this is my fairy. decided to make the weapon look like some claw thingie that has this ball in the middle that emitts energy and shoots laser or beams out of it.

Here's my attempt for this subject.
