Yes it is a PbP, but the recruitment is still happening (Linky in my sig).

What?
What's with that look? Why do people always look at me funny when I try to play nice? Even a jerk like me can do nice things from time to time. :smalltongue:
A lot of people mentioned that fulfilling more requests could help pump some life back into the place, and maybe get people interested again. So I I figured that I might as well. :smallwink:
So yeah, a bit later into the month than I would've liked, but eh, avatar stuff.

I tried to figure out a decent skin color other than red, but I couldn't really figure one out that still conveyed "devil". Shame, that.
I did something based off of an old Kurien template I found.

The left hand is... strange.
EDIT: So... I decided to record a drawing like the amazing Tsofu here. Just to compare his awesome stuff to what I regularly slaughter the style with. I mean, he slaughters it, but in a good way. :smalltongue: Anyway, that's a bit over 200% speed, and I hope it helps you. :smallsmile:
So here goes Catastrophe, the tiefling swordmage, fierce and proud :

Things are starting to slow down for me now at the end of the period, so I'm finally getting the time to devote myself to some of the projects which float around my mind on a regular basis. One of these was to create a custom smiley set, as I've adopted the :3 smiley for my own, but at the same time feel it lacks expression, and it also doesn't mesh very well when combined with the forum smilies.
So, I wend ahead and drew up my own teddybear counterparts of the forum smilies, and then, because if I'm going anywhere, I might as well go over the top, I went ahead and learned how to program a Firefox extension just so I could modify the hotbar to the right into displaying and pasting these new smilies into my posts instead of the regular ones.
So, without further ado, my 14 home-made teddybear smilies:

(:smallcool: has been configured to paste a [roll]1d6[/roll] into my posts instead, because I never use it (the nonstandard size grates on my sense of style), and I've always wanted a swift way of making die rolls... http://i.imgur.com/jLvmsd9.png)
Teddy's back, woo! :smallbiggrin: Glad to see you're doin' artsy stuffs and such, those beary awesome emoticons look downright grizzly! Heh heh, bear puns... couldn't resist.
Heh, thanks! And it's fun to see I'm remembered too... http://i.imgur.com/gh2zaGF.png
I should draw myself a new new avatar. I've had this one for a while, it's about time I get a renewal. I've still got to figure out how to draw it, though...
I need some inspiration for OotS style stuff. I'm having a huge block with inspiration right now. :smallsigh:
I got Illustrator again so I've been making things for my pathfinder campaign.
Here's a clockwork ballerina.

I miss doing this. I might have to make more.

Two designs thrown together really quick. They're cohorts to one of my characters.
I'm also resisting the urge to post something else here. It is OotS style, but posting it here feels like shameless advertising for my new Tumblr...
Ignore my laziness on the girl, please.

Does this look any better?
I think it looks great! And if that's the only thing Cuthalion found to criticize, I'd say you're doing pretty well!
My comment: The yellow bird-feet kind of detract from the rest of the image. It might be best to do them in black, or maybe a dark brown if you don't want them confused with her fingers/hand.
Another thought: Maybe put a bit of a wave to the bottom of the cape? Nothing extreme; just a very flat sine wave.
1. I say don't change the color of the feet. It looks fine to me and matches up with how birds are drawn in the comic.
2. Round the ends of your nodes. Seriously, this helps so much it's astounding.
3. Her hair has some weird corners. Either increase the miter limit or round the corners.
4. My eyes might be deceiving me, but it looks like your strokes aren't entirely consistent. It looks better if they're all the same.
5. Make her hands a little bigger. It's not a big deal, but it would look a little better (Especially the hand holding the bird).
6. I agree, put a wave on the bottom of the cloak.
Now that I see it closer, there are two more things.
- Make the feet at an angle. Almost nobody stands with their feet poiting in the opposite direction. It's just not comfortable.
- Also, it would look a lot less stiff if you bend the legs just a little bit so she's not locking her knees.
So, art upgrade, huh. Let's try this...

Meh. I don't really care for the colored arms and legs, mostly because that makes it significantly more tedious to draw. :smallsigh:
Oh it isn't that bad. Group up the shapes you usually make an arm/leg out of, duplicate it, put it behind the ordinary arm and increase thickness of those lines which now form the outline. I usually use a slightly thinner line for the colour than I used for the old black arms and a slightly increased thickness for the new black outline. (1-1.5 coloured, 2-2.5 black)
I think the new look for the arms/legs looks cool, but I'll be sticking with the solid black lines unless there's armor on that arm for example.
Also, asdflove, the young'un (who's name escapes me and I apologize) looks positively adorable.

I made a new avatar fast. It's raining extremely hard and we need it.
♪♫Raindrops keep falling on my head♫♪
Sorry, couldn't resist :smalltongue: it looks great.
Understandable, having made them before I know entirely to well why you don't want to.
You kiddin' me?! Even the name's adorable!!
Also...
It's Zaeron again, with a couple of goblins (a teenager and a child) in the background... the flowers are just plain terrible.
