- FredH - has entered the competition!

[FredH]

Just entering to practice drawing a little. This is not an official entry:inocent:

[ThatDon]

Show us the goods, or you're going to start a riot!

[Frozan]

yes people are getting antsy

[Socket7]

A Snow Queen? Nice! :) Can't wait to see how Andersen's character will develop into something nasty. :)

[beelow]

I am waiting to see what you come up with. Good luck with it! XD

[FredH]

Here is an idea for a final pose for her. She is quite simple. I can't really put in any more details because the more I put, the more unique she becomes. If she were in a game, I imagine there would be many of her, not just one.

Socket7 --> Nope, not a snow queen. She is just one of many ice giants:)

[BiG ToE]

Fred when you say you need practice drawing, it's like you crapping on my chest and telling me it's snowing. I don't believe you. Stop it.

Anyways, love the idea of the jewels as nipples. And the weapon she is holding, reminds me of a pool stick. So my qusetion, where are the balls?

[ThatDon]

this thread wins, that was a seriously funny analogy BiG ToE!!!

ps. can Mr. Vesuvius date her Fred?

[Frozan]

id hit that! nice concept u have there friend!

[COUPLANDROB]

Very awesome, can't wait what the final composition will look like :)

[peter_john]

nice detail on the edge cracks and sections... lines following form, suggesting volume, woo!

[keo]

woo! at that scale, i would hope there weren't too many of them. I love the tiny stick figures running in terror :D

[therealjohnwu]

Must be cold. Her nipples are showing.

Nice work Fred.

[Socket7]

Mmm... Pity it's not a snowqueen. :p
Anyway, look nice. I like how you made her a giant but also kinda elegant. I guess, it's greatly due to her "cue" and the way she holds it. Good work! :)

[FredH]

Here are the sketches...

John --> :p It's the altitude that does that hehe

Socket --> Hmmm, I suppose I should fix the stick. After BiGToE said it reminds him of pool, this is the only way I see it now too:flag:

BiG ToE --> don't you see the balls? The balls she goes for have two feet and run around all the time. Sometimes, she gets quite annoyed. It throws her game off:p

Thanks guys, I will finish up the modeling sheet now:)

[Antimagic]

The one on the top right.. not sure if I like the ice giant, or this one better:eek: He is really cool. Those two aside, really nice sketches! You mentioned in the nautulas thread that his modeling sheet looked off from his final concept, maybe here, since she is made of ice, you should make the sketches blue?:inocent:

[Spug]

I really like the wind goddess concept, and the armadillo/turtle is sweet as well.

[beelow]

Nice thumbs! XD

[cabertevon]

:ack: FredH!?:doh:

[FredH]

Thanks antimagic:) I did as you suggested.

modeling sheet:
removed...

Now I am starting the final one:doh:

[ThatDon]

ahhh, a classic FredH modeling sheet, almost as good as sex ;)

[BiG ToE]

Sorry Don your WRONG, it's more like needing to take a piss, but holding it for 4 days then finally letting it go. It's better than sex.

Great job FredH, will you be modeling this "Ice Giant", or i she doomed to global warming?

[Jill'san]

Looking really hot! If you have time, I'd fix her behind in her.. well, back view. I realize you kept her shading simple, but you shouldn't skimp on her behind. Also, her eyes in the front view look a little more slanted then in the perspective view. Finally, the little guy running on the bottom right of the page is a little hard to see. I think a small highlight of some kind will bring some attention to him. Another strong entry:) Good luck on finishing. I can't wait to see what your final image looks like.

[FredH]

Thanks guys:)

Imperialism, will diffinately fix. thanks man.

hmmm, how awkward. I actually finished my entry:eek: This is a first:brick:

I'll show it tonight.

[ThatDon]

Show the cold hearted biiiiizzznatchhhh already ;)

[FredH]

This entry won't be judged, but it was fun to create:)

Lesson learned... create the final illustration before going into the modeling sheet:( The modeling sheet has a lot of missing details because I later added things in the color image. Oh well.. next time.

See you all again in the next one. I'll be entering again for sure:)

[EVIL]

Oeh nice one Fred!, one crit, the lighting on her boobies make them a bit flat. A softer gradient would have given a bit more depth! You know how important depth is on boobies ;)

[ThatDon]

....you should just enter fred, it's not your fault that you're amazing...well on second thought I guess it is your fault........

[FredH]

Evil --> yes, I agree. Depth is important:p I'll fix that for my portfolio. Thanks man.

ThatDon --> I am not really amazing man. I am still learning. Hope my next entry will be much better:) btw, it would be awkward for companies to judge my work since I am the organizer. Just imagine my email, hey, the contest is finished, but hey, look at my entry. Isn't it great! wink wink :p

[Antimagic]

She came out looking really beautiful. Congrats on finishing

[xvampire]
