Personal OOTS Avatars

[Adghar]

I dunno, what program do you use?

[EightSlicesOfPie]

Flash MX 2004.

[pumpkinetics]

Ah but where would he be without his +4 shoulderpads of spikey bull rushing eh?

Probably more interested in his swordplay.

[penguinscanfly81]

I used Xara to make mine. If only it werent a trial version... I reccomend you try it though. Its simple to use. Only problem is, since the trial expired I cant take his hat off. (I'm really just too lazy to try.)

[Iazmynh]

I've been using Micrografx Photo Magic to draw lots of stuff from scratch, incl my avatar. You can see some of my "regular" art at my Elfwood pagehttp://elfwood.lysator.liu.se/loth/b.../bubbamae.html

[Were-Rat]

The avatar I'm using now I made myself. Her name is Melilot, a halfling paladin in my story. She travels across the land with her male warpony, Daisy. The avatar was originally part of a picture I drew of the later chapters of my story. You can see it here. http://www.neon-nerd.net/img/group.jpg

I made all of it in adobe photoshop.

Hi guys & gals,

I'm a long time OOtS fan, and I caught sight of this thread, and couldn't help myself. I'd done a few random drawings, but nothing really that cool, but today I was inspired, reading all the threads, and I made myself in OOTS fashion. Hopefully, the image shows up on the left. All of you have done some really great work, I hope mine stacks up well with everyone else's. Well, as this is my first time posting, I really just wanted to say Hi to everyone, and that the creativity here is great.

Edit: Oh, I did my avatar in Paint Shop Pro 7. Since PSP 7 lets you do layers and vectors it makes life fairly easy.

I spent far too much time with Photoshop making my avatar, but I'm quite happy how it turned out. It's my current PC, Aerik the fire sorcerer. If I get really crazy, I may try to update it every so often as the campaign continues. (It's already out of date since he now has a staff that he'll be using more frequently than that rapier, and hopefully he'll soon find a way to dye that garish blue cloak to something more appropriate to his own paradigm, like red or black.)

... I'm such a geek. :)

[Were-Rat]

... I'm such a geek. :)

I think we all are.

[Lilly]

I have a challenge/request for anyone who wants to try:

A lady with shoulder length orange hair (toned down from 5th element orange just a little) with her hand over her face and eyes closed in frustration. Running around at her feet are several little kids two girls: one with blonde hair, the other really skinny with brown hair; and one boy with brown hair and a gun going "bang! bang!" and wearing desert camo. Feel free to make the image as large as you want to fit most of this stuff in. I'll scale it down and all that jazz on my own.

[Were-Rat]

Here you go.



I tried!

[Lilly]

Yay! Thank you!

And for explanation: I seem to be the only one of my friends with a brain anymore. My two best female friends are having a horrible fight, my best guy friend has joined the army, and I'm sitting here going "What are you thinking?"

[metaofantioch]

My old avatar that I'll probably use again some day, based on my recurring character Meta of Antioch:


And, my recent new avatar, Darth Malak from Knights of the Old Republic, because I really have been playing that game too much:


Made in MSPaint. These are larger versions, cause scaled down to avatar size they don't look as good.

[Orion_Silverhelm]

good, you and i can face off......

all hail the mighty orion silverhelm, jedi....

[metaofantioch]

good, you and i can face off......

all hail the mighty orion silverhelm, jedi....

Your superior art skills can never save you from the power of the Sith! :)

Or, to quote: "Impressive, most impressive."

[Adghar]

Meta, did you know that you're able to change your name in the Profile?

[metaofantioch]

Yes, but just because I have a different avatar, I don't want to change my "identity," so to speak. I just like running around with a stick figure Darth Malak. :)

[pclips]

Why would I stay up another hour at 4 am to do this? Why?

[Tyranith]

Here's my personal one, I'm posting incase my avatar changes later - made using Paint Shop Pro 9.

I'd be happy to try and make any that people request of me, I'm hoping to improve my style. I'll be making a few more mostly of my several adventuring parties.


Thanatar the Half-Drow Fighter

[Tyranith]

Ka'elvor the fey'ri Archmage.

[Dragon_Rider]

THose are really cool!

(although Ka-elvor's tail looks like its sticking out of the top of hi head, but I'm nto one to talk, my drawing skills stink...)

[Tyranith]

Thanks. I can't seem to find any way of getting the tail to look, well, more like a tail :p

[Gramorn]

How do you even make your own OOTS avatar?

[Adghar]

Step 1: Open an imaging program.
Step 2: Draw.
Step 3: Host.

Duh?

[Dragon_Rider]

Could you try making it stick out the side, and also tails are thicker towards the body, so that might make it more lifelike

ALSO: is that your own fey'ri you made up or is it one of the chracters from that Forgotten Realms series ( I think it was called "The Last Mythal)?

[Entertainer13]

Ummm. it's Godzilla. :D

[Aidan305]

Thanks. I can't seem to find any way of getting the tail to look, well, more like a tail :p

I always find that if your having trouble with tails the best thing to do is to put them lower down and curl them around the legs.

[Adghar]

Ummm. it's Godzilla. :D

Stop being presumptuous and overweening! He was talking about Tyranith.

If you were joking, make a mental note to add a :P next time.

[Nexus]

I decided I'd make a custom avatar in the stick figure fashion. I made mine, a hound archeon (open game content - summon monster IV) because I really like summoning them in combat. They are so cool.
Let me know what yas think.
-thanks

[Nexus]

Heh, sorry when I posted the last post I didn't realize how much detail was lost in my avatar pic.
I'll just post the link then...
heh
here yas go. http://dude3523.tripod.com/stickfig/_1_.jpg
