Did you add the cross on Santiago's chest? I don't remember seeing it on the color studies.

I've updated the color studies so he has one on his character sheet now as well. The cross was added to break up his body shapes, because right now he kind of just looks like a big, lumbering silhouette. It was also sewn onto the ship sails and flags when the Conquistadors sailed to the New World, I just simplified it for the sake of the animation, of course.

I like the addition of the cross. It does make him look more finished.

I like the one of James looking seductively at you with a piece of silk.

You keep your characters looking consistent while contorting them in various poses - it's an awesome skill to have and you do it well, good job! :]

Louis appears to have very large wrists - at least, compared to the rest of his proportions. Is it just an illusion given his ridiculously flared gloves?

quartervirus-archive In reply to ancalinar [2012-11-12 02:44:37 +0000 UTC]

It's just the gloves, but maybe I'll keep an eye on those wrists in future to make sure they don't get too disproportionate.

ancalinar In reply to quartervirus-archive [2012-11-12 03:22:04 +0000 UTC]

Haha, maybe he over-indulged on pastries one weekend and they all went to his.. wrists? :b

Anyway, you do a swell job, please don't think too much of my nitpickery. :]

You know how birds have a wingspan? Louis' got a legspan. Dayum, would you look at that!

Fantastic poses! And I cannot get over James' cocky face. Oh, Hunter. So full of yourself!

I have a theory about James's last pose. I think Louis is wearing a frilly dress and just raised his skirts. Poor James is terrified.

Guh, I'm so jelly of your cartooning skillz >< Still trying to develop a cartoon style I like...

quartervirus-archive In reply to Azaurmyth [2012-11-12 02:43:14 +0000 UTC]

I drew from life for years before I began stylizing it. My best advice is to become confident with proportions and faces etc. using real people. It will make it much easier to cartoon the characters later, while maintaining an aspect of realism because it will be clear you understand the human body, or animal body, etc.

Azaurmyth In reply to quartervirus-archive [2012-11-12 06:11:21 +0000 UTC]

Same here already actually. I love drawing people. It's one of my favourite things to do in my off time ^^ I'm just...gah >< developing a style now. It's alright so far, but nothing truly amazing in my humble opinion. Thanks for the advice though ^^ I really appreciate it.

Definitely. I took inspiration from Cyrano de Bergerac for his fighting style, and smack-talk during fights.

I really love Santiago's mustache, truly. I also love how most of his poses and expressions are something between anguish and rage. Not sure why it's so amusing. Also Louis' "Ooo~h, ouch" pose xD

He's such an angry man. If he doesn't lighten up soon he'll give himself an ulcer!

Ikr? Too much serious business going on. Lighten up, Santiago. I'm sure you have enough health problems as it is being a sailor.

Nightbringer24 In reply to ??? [2012-11-11 17:16:17 +0000 UTC]

I really like the pose for Santiago throwing away his helmet for some reason. It gives him a somewhat more primal look to him then either James or Louis posses.
(Huh, I guess there was a reason after all.)
