Sciver’s art thread

Comment ID #92119

Since I doubt some of you look through the Booru and since it constantly cycles with everyone’s new artwork…and since I like discussing things… I’m dropping an art thread in here.

I will not list my NSFW art here as I already have in the appropriate thread.


Here goes, in order of completion…
Posted image
I love Paulo and Lucy together. Lucy actually seems happy for once.

Posted image
Lucy and Paulo’s theoretical daughter…?

Posted image
A crappy sketch of Paulo putting Mike’s lights out. I got the idea from SpaceMouse. I don’t like how it turned out though…

Posted image
Amaya is very close to Sue. I tried a bit of stylization with this.

Posted image
This was a sketch done by Taeshi that I vectored, and added various effects to, to create a desktop wallpaper.

Now, feel free to discuss, I’ll also be taking suggestions for artwork ideas. I may not do all that is suggested, and in fact I probably won’t, but I will use this thread as a source of ideas. So, please post some.

(Hey, SuitCa——-se, I’m art whoring again by doing this ri—-ght??)

EDIT: Damnit… I forgot to affix the Art tag the second time around… *sigh*

I never took it to heart to begin with. He was just so “I hate you now hate hate ate haaaate” about it some I’m being melodramatics as well.

Alejandro (rapecat/confrontationcat) should be above Augustus on the last one unless you left him out on purpose.

I simply love Paulo in that first drawing. ^_^

Comment ID #92376

NCN I mentioned it in the comments on candybooru, but I’ll drop it here too.

In the original sketch Alejandro was too blurry for me to salvage, and I didn’t find him to be a terribly important character to keep anyway. He only showed up once that I recall.

Sciver September 16, 2010, 10:39 PM EST.

Comment ID #92379

there was a reason he was really blurry, hahahaha~~ I don’t feel bad at all that he’s not in it, it’s probably better that way.

Taeshi September 16, 2010, 11:20 PM EST.

Comment ID #92382

I look at it this way, every character in the image now has at least some good in them. (Some less than others maybe XD)

Also I’m working one something BIG!

….Ok that’s a bit of a lie, it’s actually very small. About 24 x 30px to be exact.

Have I ever mentioned I’m a huge fan of certain MMO’s? (And I loathe most others)

Anyway, that’s your clue guys~
Let’s have a guessing game shall we?

Sciver September 16, 2010, 11:53 PM EST.

Comment ID #92389

I love the way you color. :D
The whole SuexAmaya picture is my fav just cause of the way it’s colored, really. It’s pretty nice. ^_^

And oh yeah I totally thought that was a genderbent Paulo. :U

The vectored one came up funny-looking on my desktop, I’m sticking with the uncolored one :) It is however, very nice.

Nero Amatam September 17, 2010, 1:54 AM EST.

Comment ID #92420

I’m sorry to hear that, Nero. I’ll look into it.

I did some things to the CandyBooru image to make it less than 1mb… (shrunk it from 1900x1600 to something random and made it use indexed coloring. I’ll upload a full bitmap version later, that should work fine.)

Also, my “BIG project”… is looking grim already… so I’ll just spill it…
I’m a huge fan of Ragnarok Online, and I was thinking that it would be interesting to make BCB characters’ heads and do a BCB themed server… however… I’m realizing that RO’s heads are… much TALLER than BCB styled ones… so the whole project may go down in flames before I even pass GO! and collect my 200$


…I did do a brief, and somewhat poor, sketch of Paulo as a Gunslinger though. I’ll up that later too.



EDIT: For everyone who didn’t notice…
Paulo doesn’t have black tipped ears, and his cheek tufts are much clumpier… but taking cat genetics into account, Paulo’s offspring are most likely going to look like clones of him regardless of gender…

If I’d given her odd-eyes or blue eyes, it wouldn’t be genetically feasible… so I worked with what I had =\

It looks, perhaps just a tad streached, but otherwise beautiful on my background. It finally replaced that crystal chronicles one I had.

Comment ID #92424

Ok guys, this is the full size original PNG version of the wallpaper…
http://www.majhost.com/gallery/Sciver/BCB/ black.png

It should be about 3meg and 1900x1600px (that’s as much as I could handle with my meager 2gigs of ram and PhotoshopCS2… otherwise I would have made it bigger…monitors are freaking huge nowadays)


Also, do check my EDIT in the previous post ^^

Poor Tessa looks so lonely. I’m still bummed about the breakdown in her relationship with Paulo. :(

I endorse the creation of your own art thread -___-b rawk on.

@ Jerk

Remember, that was her fault, if she just accepted Paulo’s Love the breakdown would have never happened.

Ark September 17, 2010, 3:05 AM EST.

Comment ID #92457

She had legitimate reasons for doing it, but that doesn’t make you any less right. *sigh* Oh well. That’s old news.

Carter Zombies… what could be more frightening?

Paulo is a gunslinger from RO!?

Amaya responds to Taeshi’s generous compliment pic in kind… though… not very articulately.

I miss my RO server T_T
Stupid RENEWAL client fuxxkin up my xRayz… I had so much cool stuff…

I guess it’s time to start experimenting with Ragnarok II…

Anyway, I’ll most likely do some more RO themed characters… as I come up with fitting concepts.

Anyone have any suggestions for Characters’ Jobs?
I’m thinking Monk for Lucy, and maybe archer or ninja for Amaya.

I don’t have any definite ideas just yet, so please um… vote or something…

Sciver September 18, 2010, 6:46 PM EST.

Comment ID #92979

FUCK RENEWAL!!!!!!!

I would see Mike as a Monk, Paulo as a Sinx, Daisy as a Dancer, David as a Sniper, Abbey as a High Priest, Tess as a Merchant/WS, and Lucy as a Star Gladiator. Amaya would so be a Sniper. McCain could be a Stalker! XD

:D Name more, I wanna keep going with this!

Tricky September 18, 2010, 7:15 PM EST.

Comment ID #92992

Sue. You neglected Sue.

Also, I always saw Mike as a more kick oriented fighter, and Lucy a more punch oriented one. So, those roles reversed…

Daisy would probably be more like a professor XD David would be a novice.

What about Augustus? High Wizard?

Sciver September 18, 2010, 8:41 PM EST.

Comment ID #92995

Well daisy is kinda the whore. I said Sniper for David cuz that’s the class that takes like no effort at all.

Augustus actually kinda dresses like a prof almost O.o. Sue….Alchemist? O.o i dunno.

And the animals could be different homunculi~

Tricky September 18, 2010, 8:55 PM EST.

Comment ID #93007

High Wizard Augustus turned out pretty well I think.
Posted image
Still looks like him in my opinion.

And what makes you say Daisy is a whore? Just because cheerleading is the stuff of nightmares and she took some bad advice from…^ that guy, doesn’t mean she’s a whore…

Sciver September 18, 2010, 10:12 PM EST.

Comment ID #93014

Mike = Star Gladiator (cause he runs fast)
Lucy = Shura (cause she loves punching people)
Paulo = Gunslinger (he likes looking bad ass that’s for sure)
David = Clown (cause he is one)
Daisy = Sniper/High Wizard (cause she isn’t sexy enough to be a Dancer and she’s a coward to boot! That being said, she’s smart so she could be a High Wizard as well)
Abbey = Lord Knight/Royal Guard (he IS the knight in shining armor)
Amaya = Assassin Cross (cause she’s quiet)
Sandy = High Priest/Archbishop (she’s pure and innocent based on the comic)
Sue = Genetic (cause she’s creative. That and the Genetic looks bad ass)
Augustus = Stalker (cause he is one)
Tess = Shadow Chaser/Rogue (cause she’s a former rebel. Plus points for the Shadow Chaser for looking incredibly pimp)
McCain = Assassin (discreet and collected. Just like how Assassins should be)
Jessica = Dancer/Gypsy (now there’s a slut)
Rachel = Wanderer (who needs wing pins when you’ve got a whole costume as wings?)
Carson = Bard (cause Bards are gay)

You all seem to have a lot of interesting ideas.

I’m beginning to rethink my RO server again…

If there were a BCB themed RO RP server, would you all want to play?

Sciver September 19, 2010, 12:30 AM EST.

Comment ID #93030

@Sciver
I’ve quit playing RO some time late 2008. Tried coming back earlier this month but the fun just wasn’t there. Oh, and I play in my country’s official Free-To-Play server so, yeah. I can come back anytime, but as I said, it isn’t as fun anymore.

OT:
I’d change Amaya to a Thief. I think the costume fits her better. Justin and Molly should be Novices =3

Hey, mind if I color your Gunslinger Paulo? I want to practice again :)

May I ask- what is RO?

MiwAuturu September 19, 2010, 1:58 PM EST.

Comment ID #93143

RO = Ragnarok Online.

SkylineFaux September 19, 2010, 2:12 PM EST.

Comment ID #93145

People still play RO?

Shotgun_wizard September 19, 2010, 2:14 PM EST.

Comment ID #93147

^A few (albeit less than 2500) in my country’s official servers (most are botters). I assume a lot still play in private servers, with the Renewal patch just released and all.

SkylineFaux September 19, 2010, 2:17 PM EST.

Comment ID #93247

More people play the private servers than the official ones.

I have succeeded in hammering together a Ragnarok 2 Saga server… it only works on my computer and I don’t know how most of it works… there’s hardly any useful GM commands and the database setup is vastly different (and in my opinion inferior) to RO’s

Anyway, no new art, but yes, anyone is free to do variations on my art here as long as you credit me and obviously Tae.

Also, if you do use it, I’d very much like it if you added a copy to this thread.

On the subject of RO, I’d hazard that if you put together the sum of all private servers, it would probably rival the newer MMOs.

I decided not to give up on my BCB face set for RO btw… I have a few of Lucy’s done, but I’m working slowly since spriting is different from sketching… I’m party worried about Lexi, since she can’t get internet and I don’t see her much the last few days… and I have RO2 to play with…

All that aside, I check this page regularly so feel free to ask questions, comment, or post derivations of art here ^^

I likes it Faux.

I am doing the BCB art meme!

And I’m going to attempt to not half-ass it! (so it may take a little while… that’s a lot of pics&hellip;)

EDIT:
Lexi got her internet back! I’m thrilled! =D

Still planning on finishing it though.
