Rayman sketches/WIP's

[Termonaptir]

Yeah, yeah. I know some of my friends here told me to do this a while ago. So I thought, why not?
Many people know that I absolutely HATE drawing Rayman. Ya wanna know why? Because I can't draw him. Yup, I admit it...
But I guess this is a once-in-a-while thing. I'll spend a few moments drawing him again... We all have to remember where our art roots come from.
Rules:
1: I do not take requests. I draw what I want, when I want. Don't you go around begging me either. And don't even TRY to rush me! Got it?
2: A bit of nitpicking is allowed, but don't do it for the sketches! I fix things up once I color them! These are WIP's, AKA rough drafts!
3: Do not copy without permission
4: Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah... *on and on*


Yap, yap, I KNOW I got a lot of flaws here. This is the first time in how long I drew him again? Besides, I spent around ten minutes doing it. XD I congratulate anyone who knows what book he's reading. Little guy enjoys all the amusement he can get.
I'll fix the feet, head, hands, etc. once I work on the final draft. Now, I brace myself for people who'll go all 'WTF?!' at me.

It looks pretty good. He looks like he's about 5 years old.

[Serza5]

He's so cute .

[Joshua822]

His nose isn't drawn correct. But for the rest it looks good ^^

[Termonaptir]

Of course it isn't! That's exactly why it's a rough draft. If not, you're talking about the angle itself. It looks that way because he's looking down.

This is exactly why I hate drawing Rayman more than anything. XD

You'd certainly to better than me, Aptir The nose is indeed the hardest part to draw, and this is the main reason I can't stand drawing Rayman. I usually take on easier characters such as Hoodblasters. ^^

B-but... Five-year-olds don't like reading! D=
Anyways, thanks everyone for your support/opinions. Here's the completed piece.




I exaggerrated on the shading simply because it brings out the colors.

I did.

[Xenon]

Is he planning to battle Murfy? Or his he reading about the Murphies in Rayman 2?
Anyway, if I were to nitpick, I'd say his feet are a tad small, but that's nothing really.

[Joshua822]

Oh, last thing, i should remove the lines on his fingers, the hands of Raymanian creatures look better smooth

[Termonaptir]

Thanks. Well, for a first attempt in a while, this is fine for me. But it still doesn't mean I like drawing Rayman. I used to, actually. In fact, he was the only thing I drew. But after awhile... I just grew 'meh' towards it. We change over time. I may sketch something out again soon. Depends on my mood. (But yes. I admit there are plenty of flaws even I don't like to admit on this one. The nose, the hair, the eyes, the anatomy; er, whatever ya call it, the hands, the feet... Well, basically everything. o_0)

But personally, I prefer to draw animal-like creatures. Call me a Pokenerd or whatever, I despise to draw anything humanoid. They're just so... BORING! XD However, I'm not so sure WHAT Rayman leans more towards.

3: Do not steal without permission.

You give people permission to steal?
Anyways, nice drawing. And 500 times better than anything i could do. XD

3: Do not steal without permission.

You give people permission to steal?

It means you shouldn't take the picture and use it without asking the owner first.

[Holy Crap]

Yes, but I do see Dango's point. In 'don't steal without permission', the 'without permission' part is completely redundant.

[Joshua822]

Yeah. It should be "do not copy without permission"

[Termonaptir]

What is this, some kind of nitpick festival or what?! XD Just kidding. Thanks for catching that.

[Holy Crap]

Dango's fault.

[El Dango]

It's always my fault, isn't it?
