Description
This is Jak from the uber popular video game series Jak and Daxter. This design is from the 4th game Jak X Combat Racing.I really liked Jak's look in this game. I had fun with Daxter. I drew him with the goggles down and ready to go. Notice the keychain charm. That's the symbol of Jak's family.
I got to say that this game isn't my favorite in the series, but BOY is it addictive. My biggest beef is with that bloody Peacemaker shot. I get hit with that ALL THE TIME!! Once I was hit with it 5 times in a row. I hate it because it really feels like I'm being punished for playing well.
This like pretty much all my work was hand drawn, but colored via Paintshop Pro Vr.7. The background is a screenshot of the game.
This image was published in PSM April '06 Issue 109 and was voted the Best Fandom of April.

Dx Stupid peacmaker. I hate the supernova too. As soon as you think you're gonna win, ka-blam, you're in last place again. Anyway...
Oooh. This is great. The coloring is so smooth and the jacket is especially well-done!

Thanks.
I find that the Peacemaker shot isn't a big of a deal if you try to not stay too far ahead of the pack. Keep an eye on the coarse map. You can sometimes see the shot coming as a fast moving purple dot. The traveling mines are red dots. When you see it hit the brakes, let the next guy pass you, wait for him to blow up as you stay behind him, then gun it once he's gone.
On one track I can get 60 kills with luck. On this track I average 30-40 kills.
On the sewer tracks dont depend on boosters. Winning those are all about control. Only use boost in long straight aways.

The sewer track is generally a pain because you have to worry about getting a good time on the course in addition to everyone else killing each other and you. << I haven't played that game in awhile though, I should.
And you're welcome. ^-^

I never really thought about drawing Daxter with the goggles down until. I saw him with the goggles down in the Jak X game and thought it was perfect for the mood. Makes itlook like he's all ready to go.

Alia-the-white In reply to FoxxFireArt [2006-09-25 23:09:29 +0000 UTC]
Yeah! I think is cool, and there is almost any image of him with his goggles... In fact... why he donΒ΄t use them in Jak III? xD Jak use his goggles beacouse of the sand in the desert, and Daxter no... Dosent make sence
"Oh well!" xP

Thanks.
Those Peacemaker shots are a royal pain. One tip I have for avoiding those is to not stay too far ahead of the others. When you see the icon appear that a peacemaker shot has locked on I will sometimes hit the breaks and let the next person get hit. This often works.

FoxxFireArt In reply to Yakow [2006-09-04 22:47:19 +0000 UTC]
That's pretty much what I do at times. I also like to lag behind for the first lap and get a bunch of kills until I get enough dark eco for the powered up weapons. That's when the real fun starts. On one race I average about 30 on a two lap race. Once I got 49.

This game isn't my favorite in the series, but it is fun to just sit down and play a few races. The Hero Mode in this game sucks though. In the past things were hard but you were given an advantage, but this mode it just makes things hard.

mmm, psm. i love those guys! i got in too with some jak fanart, but it wasn't even nearly as badass as this! X3 congrats on getting in!
this is one of those awesome examples where the screenshot adds a wonderful boost to the actual artwork. going with what dags said on that
one... way too many people abuse the screenshot use [i know i do. D:] but you did a wonderful job as far as making it... well... WORK really well.
i thought you'd actually completed the bg yourself at first since it blends so seamlessly. kudos on that!
your style is unlike any other i've ever seen. @_@ very yummy. i love the blending and details on jak's outfit... and daxter with his little goggles
there! XD so cool!
verreh lovely jak x fanart, although i'm more of a jak 3 fan m'self. :[ i fail at racing games.

FoxxFireArt In reply to weaserpuff [2006-09-04 06:16:12 +0000 UTC]
Thanks.
The background was a tough choice to make. It needed to be heroic and express the action in the game.
I gave Daxter the goggles, because I thought it was different and matched the, "getting ready to ride" mood.
I did like Jak 3 more. I do like Jak's racing gear. Jak 2 was a lot of fun, but there were so many glitches that messed with the game. I so hope the continue the series. I haven't seen anything though.

Hey, ya... I remember seein' this in PSM.
I like the usage of the screenshot. Most artists would just get a screen, and slap it on there 'cause it "looks cool" or some reason like that. But I think you actually bothered with balance and color contrast... The yellowy-orange explosion sets off Jak's hair.

FoxxFireArt In reply to Dagger-A09 [2006-09-03 20:26:31 +0000 UTC]
Yeah I was happy I got the big panel in that issue.
Well thank you, but I think you give me too much credit. I just picked a bunch of screen shots that "looks cool" , and later I picked which ones would match best.

This is awesome... I'm quite amazed it wasn't more commented than it was. O.o There are VERY few decent pictures of Jak that I've been able to find on here, so awesome job, yo. Awesome. *nods* Definitely a fav. I'm so addicted to those games... IT'S NOT HEALTHY! *waves arms*

Yeah, me too... I mean, gosh if you like it enough to fav it, you'd think it'd be common sense to leave a comment too. Either way, awesome picture. *laughs* And I envy your ability to draw Daxter... I am having difficulty with him at the moment. *twitches* Any suggestions?

FoxxFireArt In reply to Alandra-Noir [2006-08-22 20:30:47 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, it just seems polite.
Best tips for drawing Daxter is for the head I make a circle and then an oval for the mouth/jaw area. and then I make a sort of teardrop shape for he body and make the tail off that to a point.

Ah, much thanks. That should help me quite a bit... That little bugger's hard to draw. Haha, I've got Jak down pat, but Daxter? Pshhht. Goofy precursor form. Ottsel. MER.

Meh, I never even got to the hero mode on Jak X. I'm not a big fan of racing games (I'm a platform freak), so I'm not very good at them. I mainly got Jak X just to complete my collection, cos I'm a little fantard. I did however like the Hero Mode in Jak 2, that was kicked ass!
I've completed that game like 10 times cos it's my fave out of the series.

FoxxFireArt In reply to HybridAlchemist [2006-08-21 16:38:30 +0000 UTC]
Thanks. I can tell you're a real Jak and Daxter fan. I love this series as well. I've played and beat them all. Except PSP "Daxter".
I didn't like the Hero mode in Jak X though. Normally Hero mode made things harder, but with some kind of payoff, like invincibility or infinite ammo. Only thing this one did was make everything harder.
