HeyheyheyHEY!!! No more broken egos, please! If everyone starts whining, I will whine too and I'm trying to quit that, please! 'k? FINE!!!

Yesterday, I took a breather and read the final volume of Black Jack.
It has been 17 volumes of about 300 pages each. And it's one of my lifetime favorite comics.
So last night, I wanted to give another try to draw some of its characters. I've tried to draw them the way his author would draw them. I mean, really fast; not really mimicking Tezuka's style....
From the upper left:
Black Jack: The infamous "Scalpel Demon". How much do you think your health is worth?
Pinoko: She looks like a 5-year old girl. She says she's 18. BJ says she's only 1. And both are right.
Dr. Kiriko: The dreaded "God of Death". He applies euthanasia for a price. Is he really so souless?
- A hand with an scalpel. It's almost mandatory on every chapter!
-What the FUCK is that THING?!

Yeah, I know I use a paper that is real shit... Let's save that for another day.
I hope you like them!

Honestly, although I was hoping for some feedback, I wasn't really expecting people to actually reply to my post... thank you all and sorry for taking so much time in answering.

Good to see you like it! Sadly, some urgent matters have fallen on my head lately, so poor Guy will have to wait in line... Yet, meanwhile I'd like to post here some related sketches, or showing the project progressing somehow... I think it'd be nice to "share" this project somehow... Sounds nice?

If you redraw the legs so they're apart (so he looks ready to fight/support his leaning forward body) then yeah, for sure.

The idea was to draw his right leg one step ahead. A quiet stance to show off his well-ironed pants :D I've considered your idea of drawing his legs apart, but in order for it to work, it'd be better to redraw it completely... I'll try to post a fighting stance sketch to see if that's what you had in mind.

Well, yesterday CAPCOM really made me happy. Guy's coming to SSF4... And he's bringing a friend with him!

Yeah, I was one of those guys who missed his stereotypical jeans & shirt but with time, I've admitted the character is much more distinctive this way and, hey...
... He was your average hero o' the day... but now he's a man consumed by violence!
OHMYGOSH I THINK I GOT MY PANTS SQUISHY.

Well, the rest of my reasons for loving Cody will wait for another day. Here's a rough I've just made and I thought to clean it up a bit and posting it here. I'd really encourage commenting on this one.
Thanks in advance.

Dammit, no idea about the last one. Frustration!!!

Dang.
I can't believe it.
It's a pity, I was thinking the guy's kinda nice... But when he had the chance to sort things up, bam, he goes and blows it real bad. Yesterday morning, I had a look to his art gallery and I liked what I saw. I thought he had potential, and rated accoordingly to that.
... But that attitude... Not. And the things you said... I suggest you to think over those. You acted as the typical guy who likes to troll around and your statements were really weak.
I saw myself somewhat reflected in your drawing 'cause I think many of the popular comic and animated japanese series are really stale or just plain bad, and I think those feed trends of hating like yours. There has been a creative crisis ocurring in the commercial anime/manga scene during some years and it has become less and less interesting since.
But you won't see me throwing away a whole industry or dissing its professionals only because I don't like the products they're making right now. And, if you can't find a product you like, you only have to seek further. We don't live in Japan, we don't have access at all the whole amount of comics and anime that are produced there in a mind-blowing rate. And I'm not talking about all the classics already available...
And I don't think turning into that old grumpy geezer who's always saying "Everything was better before" can be so appeaing... I don't want to turn into a fossil, that's for sure.

Enough droning. Nantes, I'd really be pleased if you came back to this thread (with a better attitude, that is.) and besides...

It lends itself much more to blending than solid areas of color. Posterized pics would work well with pretty much anything BESIDES charcoal.

Is the objective making the final REALLY look like posterized?
Maybe they just were told to use a posterized photo just to get the attention to shapes and volumes and use that as a hint to draw and shade the picture as the charcoal is meant to be used...
... but traditionally you just squint your eyes for that, am I right?
'Cause if they want it the other way... Ornery has all the right to piss on them art teachers.

What about the obviously unhumanoid characters? Here's the Tattoed Troll to fill that gap.

Bizarro's Fantasy Archaetypes (5 of 7)
Sword and Sorcery. There has been a lot of brawn already, so here comes the Sorceress.
No heroic barbarian trusts in witchcraft, but with this type of magician, they're really prone to be fooled at least once.

You noticed the thong on that hunk above?. I bet he's of the lecherous, unsatiable type.
He sure has a lot of young Slaves in his evil lair. No doubt about it.

Bizarro's Fantasy Archaetypes (3 of 7)
The Evil and Fearsome Doom=Bringer, The Dark Overlord.
Ooh, that's how I like them: large, beefy and wearing HUGE HORNED HELMETS that hide the face.You can't go wrong with those.

Bizarro's Fantasy Archaetypes (2 of 7)
The nimble, cunning Swordwoman. You know you like see bikini-clad babes making mincemeat of random goons.

I thought about resurrecting this thread because of two main reasons:
a) Giving another chance for people to admire Pancake's art. And, Pancake, if you can read this, come back.
Hey, at least I tried. You can never have "too much" talent gathered in the 'grounds. Fortunately we got sucho and some other amazing creature artists to delight us with their imaginative ways to render flesh and bone...
b) With a name like this, it's a pity not to reuse the thread. I believe strongly in bandwidth economy and I'm sure a LOT of you like to draw monsters, elves and such creatures of the genre.

Thus, I decided to post these old (scanned in 2007) sketches of mine. I feel somewhat embarrased to post these scribblings next to Pancake's hard-worked illustrations... But someone has to break the eggs.

Bizarro's Fantasy Archaetypes (1 of 7)
The heroic, muscle-bound Barbarian. 'Cause there's no such thing as Heroic Fantasy without one.

OF COURSE.

its the character im not too familiar with, only seen art but never cared at the moment to look it up or find out where it came from, and when you think about it, there is so much you can actually have seen and read before you go and say you know everything. no one really is a full blooded otaku unless they have gone through the mounds of thousands of things that is anime and manga.

Indeed, but a little curiosity won't hurt the kitty. When you like something, it's natural to feel interested in knowing more about the things you crave. There are serious and professional articles, reviews and books about the history of manga and anime. You have the 'net, with wikipedia an' all (And I DON'T, by the way.) You have resources to fix that for FREE. Just get to it.

i have not scratched too much of the surface myself maybe seen and read over 60+ know the art of 80+ but thats all.

I preferred not to know about such precise figures...

oh, and if your wondering why i dont tend to look up anything anymore, well due to the fact that i hate Reading manga on the computer and i really love watching anime in jap with subs on. i barly have enough money to buy all that i want (and i have a huge list), and well id rather go buy a game for 60 dollors a lot of the time. so i try to stay away from finding something new that i know ill get right into. out of everthing i have seen and read, i have only hated 2 things. DBZ (after freza saga) and (i cant remember).

Enough. I won't waste more time with this. You wanted drama, you'll get it.
I really apologize if I sounded harsh. It was not my intention to attack you in any way.
Nobody is asking you to be a walking encyclopedia of Anime. There's the 'net already for that.
...But you have to know about the essentials. Not only Ranma 1/2 or Inu-Yasha can be better understood (I mean the "Why are like that", not the story itself) if you know about Urusei Yatsura... You trace back almost every "Harem" romantic comedy nowadays to that series (Or things like the completely inane To Love-Ru... ).

my closet.

UNCALLED FOR. If you want to show about your private life, zoom in so that we can actually distinguish SOMETHING (Waitaminute... That's Azumanga Daioh... Good one.)

MAN, There was anime and manga before Evangelion, you know.
I mean, you opened a thread called "Anime"... Some elemental knowledge about the topic would be expected from the thread opener, don't you think so?
I mean, you can't call yourself Otaku if you don't know about Urusei Yatsura. It's MANDATORY.
I suggest you fix that gap in your fanaticism history RIGHT NOW.

I grew up reading italian Disney comics. A recurrent topic in them was Mickey Mouseworking as a detective... He searched for clues, questioned the witnesses and used violence only when there's no other possible way... Recently I thought it'd be cool to see a detective Donald. He has a short temper, so he'd fit in a more violent type of detective... One of the likes of writers like Dashiell Hammet or Mickey Spillane... Something more hard-boiled... One guy who uses brawns over brains... And furry fatales, of course!

dont stop, stopping is bad as you have to try to pick up the pace again... love how you keep doodling as well... *mega amounts of praise!*

...And I was thinking of having some rest... 'K, I'll have to keep on drawing! I feel a bit flattered, but thanks a lot for your words of support!
