ansel needs you to draw some pirates

[ansel]

OK, so I am making this game and in it there is a store/bar area. I wanted to have a random cycle of pirates on the bar stools, and I was going to put in a bunch of cameos of artists I like-- but then I had a lovely idea. I would simply ask the artists themselves to contribute! I asked a few, and they said sure, and then I had an even better idea! I would post this on public forums for anyone to see and help with, provided they have a bit of artistic talent  You see, this shows that I am all about community collaboration and am a fabulous guy who wants everyone to work together. lmao how gay

anyway, if you're interested, HERE is the template fla and below is a little shot of the area you are working with. Try to remain close to this kind of muted color palette, and your pirate should be roughly facing the bar.



email files to ansel.lies@gmail.com or host them somewhere and post a link.

OK i totally just copy pasted that from my ng bbs post, but i know there are a few really good artists on here who might find this fun to do, don't hurt me please

I can help draw a pirate later.

can it be in a front-plane too? like, it would look bigger, maybe facing the camera sitting on a completely separate table.

if that sucks then I can draw him on the bar.

OH OH OH

can I make a really disgusting bus driver showing his arse too? that one would go well in the bar of course

can we see a test version of the game swf to get a better idea of the style

im trying to picture the main guy. is it in synj's style?

[GRINACE]

So we would have to draw our characters in pairate clothing in that style?

This okay?

yeah dude, that looks good! the only thing I'd say is to thicken the lines a little, and remove tha gradients-- there isn't a single one in this game and i aim to keep it that way  

eplease do not let grinachi in

NOW SQUF LET'S NOT BE HASTY

[sQueef]

well its well done and fits the style but

zzzzzz

[f0d]

grinace thats not a pirate thats your personal avitar

dont get me wrong it looks good im just sayin!

[sQueef]

yeh thats what i was tryna say he did a good job but its not a pirate pirates dont have fuckin arrows on them

but then again looking at the reference drawing ansel provided, there's a big blue teddy bear, and a creepy warlock looking guy with silly emoticons and a big green X for an eye.

So I guess Grinachi wouldn't be too out of place!!

[ZekeySpaceyLizard]

i drew a polly wolly

[bcube]

wow bug thats great

[SnawsBall]

Hhhm... looks interesting, I am patient to see the outcome of the game.  

[ansel]

the bad news is my jaw cannot support the weight of 3 people and 1 dog

thanks dude, that's fantastic!

[GRINACE]

Ill redo mine later on. Lol the frist was half assed

[ansel]

if you guys still want to draw anything it's gotta be in by, say, midnight tonight

YOU DIG?

[slack]

No I do not dig, that's what shovels are for.
