Goldsickle's Art

[Goldsickle]

I like drawing anime-styled characters and illustrations and I also have some limited animation experience.

Here are some samples of my art:

For those interested in my animations, check out this old game I pitched in with DBarbarian:

Although this game is unfinished (and might never be finished), I think it has the smoothest sprite animation I've ever made:

You can see more art here, in my deviantART page.

This forum doesn't seem to have a "preview" feature and from what I have read, you can't edit your post.
Can anyone tell me how to insert images?
Do you use the "img src" code?

When you make a post, underneath the section where you write your post, there is the option "Include Image?", from which you can upload a single image with your post.
Although it's only one image per post, this is done to prevent picture spamming, but it still allows you to showcase your work without having to rely on links.

I like to design cute girl characters.
The games I worked on with DBarbarian also features cute girls.

Shes got that card captor look about her i think it's the hair bits that stick out.
I love the expressions, this is good stuff.

Big Boss from the Metal Gear Solid series (more specifically, the way he appears in Peace Walker).

Since my scouter blocked private messages, lemme say: Thanks for scouting me :3

The picture below is an idea for a detective girl character.
A friend once discussed with me about making a point-and-click detective game and this is the idea I had for a main character.

It was nothing more than a discussion.... but at least a decent character design came out of it.

cool stuff keep them coming.

I haven't blocked private messages but you're welcome for the scout.

[Hyptosis]

Slick and solid work! Thanks for sharing! Post more, etc. ^5

[Mabelma]

Personally I am not a fan of anime art, but damn!!! The characters are nice and alive, I rather like your work, keep 'em coming.

Oh, I misread....

I thought "M-Bot" was the scout....

Still nooby here =B

Here are some random girl sketches.

No M-Bot just sends you the message that you had an offer to be scouted.

Don't worry about it. We've all made silly mistakes when we were new here, bit late but welcome to the art portal.

The background I inserted below came from the Erika & Kooh picture:

I don't know if its just me, but I love the line work/sketches more then the final product.

although its a anime heavy style, you show a firm understanding and control, I would love to see something more realist from you as a contrast. Keep up the lovely work!

[M-Maher]

I have to agree with Lego, The rough sketchy ones are...sublime, yes, sublime!, they peak my interest very much so, I guess I can not express the feeling except for a faint raising of eyebrows at it, I want to say I like it but that will not do it justice, it deserves a more verbose appreciation of it, something I cannot express but will try to do so anyway regardless.

You will go farther than you've come OP, I'm sure you already know that, the fruits of your labor are juicy but their quality has potential to be better.

Since there's some love for rough sketches, I'll post a WIP of my most recent submission:

Random comic page.

At first I wanted to finish it but I didn't like how it turned out, so I feel like redoing it from scratch.

Beautiful page! The inks are wonderful. My only complaint is that the gray spots don't seem to be adding much to the image, to me they're just there. Personally I think it would look better without them but apart from that, great work on this page.

Thanks.

This picture is my entry for the Silent Hill: Downpour headstone contest.
Although it was featured, it didn't get picked.

Wow, I totally missed this response o.o

I didn't ink the page. I just used really bold pencils (4B & 5B) and then used Photoshop's 'Levels' options to make the lines more darker than usual, giving them an 'ink-like' look.

You're not the first one "fooled" by this, since I've had several people telling me my inking is good X3

I guess I'm too dependent on random patterns to fill the bare backgrounds.
Other comics would actually draw a background or do other things, like add flowers or something (like in comics for girls).

The sketch I uploaded below is the pencil draft for the bikini pic I just submitted.

The uploaded image below is the pencil line art for this New Year pic I drew on deviantART.
