This one I originally drew for another site. It's my first try at a serious
picture of the X series characters (of recent attempts, anyway.) I spent
much more time working on the background than anything else. I liked
how X turned out in Grayscale! I wanted his eye color to match
the green of the background. This one was churned out in two hours. One
hour of drawing, one hour coloring. I used sakura micron pens again. I FINALLY
got a new pen! .35mm thickness. (Retiring my dying .20mm pen.) Colored
on photoshop, X in grayscale mode, while the background is in RBG color.
This is a full grayscale picture I did from my fan fic. It's also one of my better attempts
at Zero's helmet. I'm still reeling from someone telling me Zero looked
bloated since I drew his helmet wrong. It's STILL wrong in this picture (Now
that I've stared at the Zero model for awhile, I know what I did wrong.) I really
liked how the grayscale turned out on this one. While I don't see it, someone
told me X looked girly in this one (DRAT DRAT!!!) When I asked further,
the person told me it was X's eyes that made him look girly, which was interesting to me
since his eyes aren't that detailed at all. His shoulder covers are wrong, I over
compensated from the first sketch, when his shoulders weren't pointy enough (which made
him look like he was slouching.) As you might have noticed, Zero's cloak was
modeled after Bass's cloak from the EXE series. I just feel like that is
a really cute cloak, so I adapted it for Zero's use ^_^. I'll do more
grayscale soon, I'm practicing making clouds with grayscale. Anywho, this pic was drawn
on Sakura Micron pen, .35mm, on my new favorite premium drawing paper, Strathmore brand
(Premium recycled) 400 series. It was really good the way the paper was smooth, thick, and
doesn't suck up too much ink from the pen. At $4.99 for 24 sheets, it's a bit
steep for sketching, but if I know exactly what I'm drawing, I'll use that paper.
This one was inspired by Hitoshi Ariga's Rockman Megamix manga. It contains text
from the book (translated, of course), so it's sort of a spoiler from the manga.
Well, if you know nothing about the manga, the text won't make sense, so it's
not really a spoiler, I guess. Drawn again on the Strathmore paper (LOVE LOVE), inked
with .35mm Sakura Micron pen, and colored on Photoshop. I was working on
shading of the shiney metal more that before. I think the glare and shading
on Mega Man is a bit more realistic this time. C. Rock is lighted in the background
without shading to give him a fading effect (consistant with the storyline.) I was
crying as I drew this, and absolutely lost it emotionally somewhere during
the translation of the text. It's just so SAD! I have no idea why I picked
those colors for the background, but it seems to work.
