Striker's new artwork thread

[Rockman Striker]

Hi! I've decided to open up this thread to gather all my latest pictures in one place. I draw using my tablet, I'm using a Samsung Tab E 9 and a stylus called Jot Pro that has a weird circular tip that's surprisingly precise and comfortable. I still need some practice but I think I'm getting the hang of it.
Here's one I've made reccently:

I know you've realized what I'm aiming for...

If I were to make a game that's a spiritual succesor to The Master System, those girls would be my main characters. I've tried to make their designs easily recognizable as influenced by Legends, and still gave them certain unique personalities and characteristics. I decided to accentuate the differences between them by changing the color of their skin and clothes, and eye design. They also represent the same light vs dark motif of Yuna and Sera by representing the moon and the sun. I played with those concepts while designing them and accidentally found the perfect names for them: "Luna" and "Sol" not only those names represent the design choices and motif I want to go with (Luna means moon and Sol means sun in spanish) but it also sounds like a pun (Luna instead of Yuna and Sol instead of Sera).

Anyway, those designs are mere concepts as I'm not currently working on making that kind of game so any suggestions regarding how to improve them are appreciated, also I want to know if you like the idea behind them. I seriously want to finish what I've started even if I have to change some stuff.

Not at this point; the link needs permission to access. :v

Hey, I have that stylus! I hope I didn't put it anywhere stupid...

Anyway, yeah. I can't see a thing. You might want to use a more accessible image host; Fatman X. Jones mentioned a bunch on Discord, and the only one I recall is the one he didn't recommend. Fatman, if you could give Striker a good image host recommendation, that'd be awesome!

As of late? Imgur is the most accessible choice (and can be non-public).

I like Google Drive as a long-term storage medium for images, although admittedly it probably isn't as great as Imgur. I just like its ease of access and navigation, although ensuring things are visible to the public can be a problem as demonstrated. It's probably a good problem to have though, since it means your stuff is generally safe from prying eyes. One button press and that link should work, it's just up to Rockman Striker to make it happen.

I always work with Dropbox but unfortunately I'm getting low on space so I had to use drive this time, it's kinda pointless to be able to share a link that no one can see, I don't know why that's a thing.
Anyway, the file should be accessible now, thanks.

I'd like to use this thread to post an example of an animation made in Blender for a project I'm working on for the Get me off the moon contest, check it out! (You may have to click on the image to play the gif)

 

Beautiful, is it not? I've already rigged the 2D model and now I have full control of the animations, it's kinda hard to figure out how to animate a 2D object on a 3D environment, but I think I'm getting the hang of it. This is an example of how the characters will look like and how they will be animated during the story.

Hopefully I'll be able to work faster on the next characters (after I texture Yuna to add details and shading) since I've already tested that what I'm aiming for is possible to achieve on Blender. Wish me good luck!

[Digouter]

That's looking pretty darn good! Now, where did I put that... (rummages in bag)

Oh, there! (gives aaall the good luck she can give) xD

It sounds tough, but I know you can get through it!
