Character Artwork Thread

By verdantsf, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

That is extremely cool. It has an almost CGI look to it but appears most definitely drawn or painted which is really impressive.

The thing that bugs me about this picture is that it looks like he has only one arm.I’m pretty sure the other arm is just hidden by the body, but with a slight change of the angle of the viewer, or by a slight change in body position, both arms would be clearly visible.But maybe that’s just me.

The rendering of the picture is great! But for those of us who like stronger silhouettes I agree that it could be visually tighter with a more interesting pose and a stronger silhouette. Still like it though.

All fair critique. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder in the end. :)

The pose is subtle, but good! But as I have a background in animation and cartooning, I always look for clear poses (or "extremes" as the stronger poses in animation are called). In concept art I am attracted to strong silhouettes too. Tha does not mean the pic isn't absolutely awesome and as I said, the render is just great. But people always look for and appreciate different things in art and types of art! :)

Yeah they do. :)

Again, I'm fine with it. :D

Heya everyone! First time posting on the Forum! My super-cool friend and GM actually linked me here, and I was checking out everyone's characters! So awesome!
I've drawn my fair share of artwork from our many campaigns and adventures... I would love to share them here with you!
We've been playing together for well over a year now... so we've gone through many trials, tribulations, and tragedies together haha. Characters have come and gone, and others have become our villains, but I love them always! Hope you enjoy them too! :)

Darth Syren is my fav. Super-babe Zeltron Mystic with Love/Jealousy theme. She turned Darkside to save the ones she loved, but ended up eventually killing most of them in a tragic turn of events and dice rolls. :(

Our current band of misfits! Left to right:
Casca [Former Elite Empire Solider], Akai [Former Jedi], Largo [smarmy businessman and goofball] , and Pips [sole survivor, but still unlucky]

And lastly, just a solo-shot of Casca and his former mantra.

That's all I have for now! Hope you guys like them! Keep posting those arts! <3

Playing a one-shot this sunday and I am playing this Smuggler: Charmer :)

He has a sword-cane and a boonta blaster... Does anyone have suggestions on what kind of jewlery or ornamental item the boonta blaster can be disguised as?

Prince Wu? When did you get to the Star Wars universe? And why'd you dye your hair?

These are great, the force seems to be with you mightily!

Awwww... thank you guys so much! So glad you like them!!! :D <3

I'm impressed by most of the character art on here, and I enjoy seeing them all... but it's only very rarely that there is character art with such intriguing character and enticing emotionality that I actually think to myself "I desperately want transcripts of all those game sessions" or "If that were a webcomic I would pull an all-nighter to read it all". And I've got to say, kickgirl, you're art (and accompanying captions) had that effect on me.

If Maelora's games were a novel, I'm pretty sure I would be writing Fanfic for it.

Me too!

...oh, wait...what's the definition of "Fan Fiction" again? Because I may be using a different one than you are...

:blink:

Kickgirl, your former Imperial, Casca... would he happen to be named Rufio Longinus?

How dare you share such nice and interesting images with us. :)

One of my players over on The Anuual Pigeon posted about another of the players, Thoulyakk the Wookie, on a "draw my RPG character" website after he got his arm blown off rolling despair when throwing a thermal detonator. He received this in reply:

He's lucky he even survived.

Oh wow, I have become infamous!! :)

But yeah, there are some talented people here and seeing other people's games is one of the best things about coming here...

See, I must have a broken dictionary, because the word I would have used was "famous," not "infamous."

Anyone know how I can get in touch with these "Oxfart" people to lodge a complaint? I have become dubious of the quality of their work...

Hey, you did some great work, so be hard to not like them.

Well PC death is pretty sucky and best avoided if undesired, so he flipped a light side point to say he ducked behind cover as he realised he fumbled it which afforded him protection. As ti happened he rolled limb loss on the crit table which seemed very appropriate that his throwing arm was caught in the blast. Meanwhile my PC, who was further away, lost his eyes to another unfortunate crit roll and antohe rPC was taken out of the fight. It was definitely epic enough for everyone's satisfaction. It was also probably a faulty thermal detonator since it had already been thrown once and failed to go off, much to everyone's surprise. Anyone foolish enough to return to unexploded ordinance deserved to roll a despair.
