Description IF YOU'RE GONNA FAVORITE COMMENT PLEASE.
I like to know what I'm doing wrong and right

Okay, so here's my uh, first ever attempt at digital irkens and my first irken-like background too o-o

Which means it's not that good xD;

It's pretty simple. I see mistakes but hey, I don't feel like fixing them. And the background's lines are messy, I might edit over them and replace this image with better lines later, but it's getting late and I have a spanish test tomorrow <3

So, I guess I should sorta talk about my little Irken concept? I'm not gonna put the EXACT bio 'cause I'm not sure about her height/age yet, though she's not too short. She was originally my irken-sona only so she needed SOME height >.>

Her name's "Em", pretty lame eh? Supposed to be my irken-sona and my name's Emily and I'm lazy WHICH you'll see in Em too.

Name: Em
Age: TBA
Height: TBA
Sir Unit: "En".

Em’s Bio:Em is basically an inventor of sorts, though not a regular one. She possesses superb skills in her field but has a rather contradicting laziness. She’s been known to lock herself away to create contraptions that take up weeks of her time just so it’ll do a simple chore, such as changing the channel or typing for her--she invents so she can be lazy.

At first the DNA Experiment Research Facility tried to recruit Em, asking for a possible DNA upgrade for Irken Invaders. Em came up with the concept of a chameleon invader who was to gather information on their given planet before the invasion in a far more productive way than the usual go and disguise. Because, however, Em is lazy and has a thing for connecting important tubes that shouldn’t be connected, the final result was a pretty much a parody of her concept. It was named “Mi”, and that bio is for whenever I get around to drawing her (“it” actually).

After her creation started to mimic the red tallest, thus abusing the purple one when being showcased, the purple one somehow managed to get Mi assigned to a planet to “test it out in the field” despite obvious problems. It was, in other words, sent to annoy Zim. As it annoyed Zim on planet Earth, Em overheard one of Zim’s transmissions (with Mi and Gir in the background) about how lazy the planet was and some plan or what not on how to use that against them (backfired later).

Em was off to Earth in a heartbeat where she rejoined Mi at Zim’s base. She doesn’t particularly help him as she’s only (forcefully) taking up residence in his base because she’s too lazy to draw and plant her own. She has a good disguise, surprisingly, but only because she programmed her SIR unit “En” to put it on for her.

Needless to say she rarely leaves the house and has little sue for a disguise anyway. Em is the only one who can figure out ways to make Mi useful and it also the creator/breeder of creatures she calls “Atomies” which are small, black and rather stupid creatures that have dog personalities. They cause problems with humans as they chew on anything nearby (her favorite Atomy is named “Carrot”, but it’s not shown in the picture).

Em’s SIR Unit “En” (N): En was originally a standard SIR unit, but because Em likes to have everything in one spot she began to tinker with him and put her “signature” symbol on his forehead. He’s known to change design as she tinkers with him, and has a storage for chips to install when needed as Em is simply too lazy to make him bigger so that he can hold all the new upgrades. SIR has a typical SIR personality and is loyal to only Em. Em usually orders Mi to copy En so that Mi is useful. En was named “En” because “N” is the next letter in the alphabet after “M” (Em).


I might add more later?

I really like this picture. Your Irken and SIR are really cute. I like the design of En. And Em seems like an interesting character.

Only thing I would suggest is to put a bit more shadow behind Em. Her head is shadowed against the panel/video/thingie she's leaning against, but her body seems to be floating, lol.

Also, I'd imagine her antenna would cast a shadow, too.

Also, I'm trying to find the source of the shadow, because Em and En's shadow seems a little...off. They look good, but like...they don't bend the right way.

This is why I never bother with backgrounds. xD I'm lazy, and I just know my shadows would go every which way but the way I needed them to, lol.

I'd also be curious to see Mi. Mi sounds interesting.

And maybe if you're lucky, I'll find a new word besides "also" to use...

But, the picture is really cool! ^^ I love the pipes, and En is adorable. c:

Thank you for the advice! Yeaaaah...I got really lazy with the shadows. I sorta just thought "HEY, I SHOULD THROW THIS IN!" and then I realized I'd be attacked by my grandma if I kept staying up, so I posted it. I would have totally forgot about the antenna shadow anyway though, no matter how late I stayed up.

Mi is a rather odd character my friend helped me come up with...I came up with her before En and Em. I'm doodling right now and if it goes somewhere she'd be in it.

ALSO, I love the word also <3

I'll try to keep all the shading stuff in mind...I'm not good with shading, it's so easy to get lazy on 👍: 0 ⏩: 1

traycon3 In reply to Invaders-EnEmMi [2010-05-12 02:11:04 +0000 UTC]

xDDD Yeah, I know how that can feel, lol. I think after like...an hour my mind is all: OK I'M BORED. STOP COLORING! And half the time I'm still working on shading. My mind can be a pain sometimes, lol.

And you look like you've got most of the basics of shading down. ^^ Just a little bit of things I pick up because my friend--coincidentally nicknamed Em--tends to grind them into my head. :'D

I actually showed this to her and was like: YOU'RE AN IRKEN NOW! O.O

Invaders-EnEmMi In reply to traycon3 [2010-05-12 02:14:17 +0000 UTC]

XDDD

Em seems to be common nickname…my irken shows my laziness even through her name! Because I was too lazy to give her a name that isn’t my own -.-
Actually, all of my characters were named for lazy reasons. En for “N” being next after “M” and “Mi” because she’s supposed to be copying a person/thing, aka “You” or “Me”.

…and hey, it all spells out “Enemy” 8D (EnEmMi <3 )

My laziness brought productivity!

I’m working on a sketch I’m sorta liking…if for some reason Zim wasn’t so hard for me to draw. I might post of the WIP or something…

It’d be a little creepy if your friend was also as lazy as I am, because maybe she IS an irken then xD

traycon3 In reply to Invaders-EnEmMi [2010-05-12 02:25:08 +0000 UTC]

xDDDD Oh, she can be pretty lazy. But I doubt she's an Irken. (Though that might explain the contacts...hm...) Though I'm prolly lazier than her. :'D

And I do love the EnEmMi thing. That is actually really awesome. :'D

And, honestly...It can't be as bad as Miz. >.> Totally named my female Irken that...

Is your irken in your gallery? My computer’s been slow so I haven’t been searching full-out through galleries ( I just fave-bombed someone and my computer nearly died ;~; ) but I’ll look if it is! D:

Em is contradictory…she’s lazy to the point she’ll work forever to make something so she won’t have to do it, aka: she works to be lazy. Huh…

I’ve started to ink my new doodle 8D

I wanted to be a piano player, but when I was young I didn't care about it and dropped it. I wish I could play THAT now...my fingers are long and the flute made one of my fingers double-jointed Dx

Yeah, I played piano when I was younger. I got bored with it because I never liked doing anything completely serious, lol. Happened with a lot of things I used to do. They stopped being fun and just became work.

I liked it. It was...fun at times. Like we got recess through eight grade. The only problem was that this one guy--who I hated with a passion--finally left and then CAME BACK FOR ONE OF THE CLASSES! There was no escaping him...*Twitch*

Also, it got kind of...annoying. Christian day school that was also my church...there was no escaping it. @_@ (Heck, I can't even escape it now, lol. Mom is the Pre-K teacher there. :'D )
