Got bored, and felt I should do something for OotS since this is an OotS forum after all. Here's Tarquin and Malack, since I find them to be the most interesting characters since Redcloak!

Old Thread!

[Prime32]

You're doing OotS manga stuff again?

But cap'n, I dinnae know if the server can take it!

[Mazeburn]

Really cool stuff. :D I like how it's got a big manga influence but you've still got a really standalone style; it doesn't look like you're imitating anyone. Actually reminds me of the brilliant old 80s mangas more than anything. <3 Very lovely.

[CoffeeIncluded]

Elagune, you're back! Do you have links to your old stuff?

[Viera Champion]

Awww... YAY! I missed this thread. Beautiful as always El.

[Elagune]

I don't think I still have the links to the old stuff, since I can't seem to find the old thread.

Anyway, here's a sketchdump that I drew while going through the archives. I'll clean this up after I get back from food! Therkla's adorable, there's just something really fun about drawing a half-orc in Asian clothing...

[CoffeeIncluded]

I don't see anything in the post...

Also, it's got to be around since I've still got your V as my avatar!

[Prime32]

I can't seem to find the old thread.

Oops, looks like I only added it to the first post.

Oh, and you found the link to the old thread! I'll just add that to the first post then!

[Teutonic Knight]

Good to have you back doing OotS in your new and improved unique style. Be prepared for the flood of requests again.

[blackjack217]

Could you make strips 1-823? please?

[Elagune]

[TheCountAlucard]

[-awesome-]

Awesome.

[Snowbluff]

Awwwwe. Therkla made me cry in OoTS. Can I give her a hug?

[Domochevsky]

Pretty good stuff, all around, i'd say.
(But oddly enough i find sketch Therkla better than lines Therkla. Something about the face and those tusks.)

[Kaytara]

So. Awesome. I particularly like Tarquin and the elves. Perfect. :)

Please keep posting more! Even the shoddiest scribbles! :)

[Asta Kask]

They're great, but Therkla needs bigger tusks.

[Mina Kobold]

[-Pictures!-]

Absolutely amazing, Therkla and Inkyrius are absolutely adorable!

...

Now I have a mental image of a Half-Orc ninja and an Elven baker having adventures and saving the world.

Thanks! :3

[blackjack217]

As for requests do you think you could do Zz'dtri's "never stopped"

[Prime32]

(But oddly enough i find sketch Therkla better than lines Therkla. Something about the face and those tusks.)

I agree. The lined version looks worried, the sketch looks like she's about to cry.

[Elagune]

I agree with the Therkla comments. A lot of sketches don't always come through in the final product, like Therkla and V in the first sketchdump here, but sometimes they come through better, like Roy and Sabine and Qarr. I guess that's just art. Therkla's tusks could be bigger, I guess, but I'm terribly at judging that kind of thing because I have no real-life reference for making cute girls with fangs.

Thanks Kaytara, love your paintings too!

Also, I guess I don't mind doing requests, considering these are just quick sketches anyway. Fire away! I will do them if they pique my interest!

Also, another sketchdump!



EDIT: Also, I forgot to mention, but that's one of the reasons that I like to show the work-in-progress. I love seeing other people's unfinished work, since it always looks different from what you get in the end. I thought you guys would enjoy this too!

[Domochevsky]

I do in fact enjoy those. (the sketches more than the lines, curiously enough. Interesting to see how you work your strokes.)

(Taking requests for sketches, hm? Default request: Make some GenGame stuff happen! o/ i'm kinda curious if you can make the feminity of BH happen where i failed. )

[IcemanJRC]

This is pretty cool, I hadn't seen the first thread. Definitely gonna keep watching this. You're certainly a busy dude Elagune.

[avakeiya]

First off, CAN I GET A HELL YEAH!!!

(ahem), Sorry, had to get that out of my system.

Beautiful artwork all around. I love your interpretations of the characters given the somewhat limited artwork of the source material. You manage to give them a unique look that i feel captures the personalities of each individual.

I especially loved Soon and the ghost Paladins from the previous thread, and how you made each individual like in the comic.

And if you don't mind requests, Here are some i can't wait to see rendered in your magnificent style:

• Enor and Ganji
• Empress of blood
• Leeky Windstaff (with trees)
• Orc tribe with Giggles, God of Slapstick
• The lawyers
• the flumphs
• the Greenhilts
• O'Chul (paladin armor and prisoner)

anyone else

But seriously, anything you post is more than awesome. It was worth the wait just to find these while browsing the forums

[IcemanJRC]

Enor and Ganji

Ooooo, I second this. Definitely.

[Prime32]

If you're looking for requests
#215 (Miko vs ogres)
#310, #313 or #315 (Roy/Celia date)
#587 (Kazumi vs ninjas)

[avakeiya]

Cant believe i forgot this one but:

Captain Julio Scoundrel, world renowned action hero and ladies man

Bonus points if you include airship

#587 (Kazumi vs ninjas)

Nice

The last Linear Guild battle?

[Surfing HalfOrc]

I'm a 46 year-old father of two who races mountain bikes through the treacherous mountains of South Korea, and I just squeee'd like a middle school girl a her first pop-singer concert!

Anyways, I'd like to repeat my request from your first board: A manga version of Roy making the leap onto Xykon's zombie dragon.

And while criticism wasn't specifically requested, a few minor things:
Sabine's hair: I always saw it as very curly, not Lt. Uhura's.
Malack: A little too short/small. Malick is quite tall, more like John Lithgow.
Therkla: The teeth have already been mentioned. But she still does look amazing! Wanted to make sure you knew that!
Tsukiko: Waiting on the final draft. The current sketch, at first glance, looks like she has a codpiece...

So looking forward to seeing more of your work!

Tarquin and Malack

I thought Malack was taller than Tarquin.
