Description Something I finished a long time ago, but forgot to post. This is just my drawing process for Irkens. There are plenty of other processes, and I'm not saying this is the only one. I also tried to cover all the bases here, or at least most of them. There are some things that most of you will go "well DUH!" on, but I just wanted to give as much information as I can for people that need it.

Also, my example drawing is bad. It could be much better, but I was lazy in the drawing department.It still serves its purpose though.

So ignore this, or follow it religiously. I don't care. It's just here for you if you feel you need it.

AWESOME! THANK YOU VERY MUCH SNOWY! XD

Now I shall try my hand at depicting Pil, so you can see what I was envisioning.

As SOON as I get home and take a nap, of course. XD

YAY! 8D For drawing Pil and taking naps!

chaoddity In reply to The-Snowlion [2009-12-05 01:27:14 +0000 UTC]

Thanks to you Pil is going quite well- when I post him you can expect your name in the credits for taking the time to teach me. Out of curiosity I looked around for other Irken tutorials, and this is by far the best of them.

The nap was great. Could use another though

The-Snowlion In reply to chaoddity [2009-12-05 20:40:46 +0000 UTC]

Aw. Glad I could help. ^^

You need more naps.

chaoddity In reply to The-Snowlion [2009-12-06 12:39:58 +0000 UTC]

Me too. XD Usually, I am the one teaching my friends things and learning nothing, and here you have already taught me a considerable sum.
A genuine thanks is certainly in order.

Nah. I have too much schoolwork, and too many friends
that I want to converse with to really bother with it if I wanted to.
I still haven't gotten to speak personally with several. O_O

Crappy irken head >.> Never comes out right T-T

On another note, This was an awesome tutorial but just to mention Irkens have three fingers only the almighty tallest ones have two.

The-Snowlion In reply to woodenpen [2009-09-27 22:36:17 +0000 UTC]

It's tough. Takes some practice.

Yup. But I think I want to believe the Tallest have thumbs too; they're just hidden inside their gauntlet thingies. But who knows?

Heres a link I got the 'two finger' info from.

I see. . . I'm already pretty well versed in what's known and assumed about the IZ universe. I draw all my Irkens with three fingers. . .

Half-dude [2008-08-27 20:34:46 +0000 UTC]

Are you my unofficial twin sibling? Your drawing style is almost identical. The only real difference is that I don't bother with the guide lines on the face or in making the head. But it's true, drawing the head in some angles is hard, I'll try using those lines.

Really Skitch.. you need to eat something.. o.o
