Title: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on November 05, 2010, 05:49:21 pm Welcome to my mini gallery. Anime art has been a casual hobby of mine over the past few years, and I enjoy practicing with my Wacom art tablet whenever the inspiration arises. For drawing programs, I cycle between Microsoft Paint and Adobe Photoshop, depending on the effect I want to achieve. Thus, some of my pics are a bit on the pixelly side.
My collection is modest, but it continues to grow a little more each year. It's been a little while since my last contribution to it, but for now, here are some of the pieces that I've hung onto. Comments and critique are both welcomed. Disclaimer: I do not own any of the backgrounds in this particular post. *** ~1~ Terry Myers My pokemon trainer character. He's brash, competitive, and vain as a Prinplup. A Staunch Pose (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/TerryMyers-1.png) ". . . . . . ." (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/TerryMyers2.png) Paint Doodles (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/Doodling.png) *** ~2~ Now or Never A Pokemon Sinnoh roleplay hosted by Killian of the Marriland forums. For a region-based RPG, it had a pretty promising start. Its characters were: (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/Kasey2.png)(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/Kasey2-1.png) Kasey (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/Willis.png) Willis (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/Mason.png) Mason (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/KaterinaTroei.png) Katerina Here is a group picture. It unfortunately does not feature Kat, due to difficulties in getting sufficient information on her full appearance. This one will remain unfinished. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/NoworNeverIncomplete.png) *** ~3~ Kenta Q. Daitan (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/Kenta-Ponytail.png) Everyone's favourite spectrum swordsman. Kenta was kind enough to use the avatar version in his profile. I made an alteration of this picture to make the hair look more realistic, but Kenta preferred the original. *** ~4~ Mega Man X Banner (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/BannerEntry2.png) My submission to Keladry's Banner Contest. It didn't come close to winning, but I'm still pleased with the way it turned out. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Doru on November 05, 2010, 08:37:20 pm 0.0
*Head asplodes* Terry looks awesome, I could actually see him in the anime. If I remember right you used one of those pics as an avatar for quite a while right? Looks really cool as do the others that were made for the roleplay. Kasey's hair kinda reminds me of Bakura's epic hair and Willis looks a bit like a grown up Max. I wish I could draw like you Terak :D Now I feel like poke' rping or trying to fraw like that..... although I have no way to fill it in with colours. Kenta looks like a picture you'd find in like the game manuals/strategy books. Came out pretty good. I remember seeing that banner in the contest, came out swell aswell ;) Like the text stuff you did with it and the border you used for it. Who's that in there though, Megaman? You have anymore like your avatar? And I'm guessing that's like a non-pokemon related Terry, or am I mistaken? Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Picard on November 05, 2010, 08:57:02 pm I see you're very influenced by the Pokemon artstyle. Pretty good!
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Kenta..... on November 05, 2010, 09:39:32 pm You've got the most professional-looking art of anyone I've ever known personally (although admittedly, that's not saying much). I'd seriously consider hiring you to illustrate my books . . . if I had books. And money.
Would I be able to see these on Deviantart if I were to look? Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on November 05, 2010, 09:55:02 pm The guy in the banner is Mega Man X, Doru. Concerning your other question, no, I haven't made any more drawings in the style of my avatar. The kid featured in the avatar is just an 8-year-old version of Terak Thelias. Terak was also once the name of my pokemon trainer character, until I decided that it wasn't believable enough.
I currently don't have a DeviantART account, Kenta. I may start one up if my drawing activity picks up again. Thanks for your compliments, everyone. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: DarkToph on November 06, 2010, 02:23:58 am You make me wish I wasn't a lazy-ass and actually worked on some new stuff even though I have new stuff it's just not re-done digitally....You also make me wish I didn't think my art sucked. :(
But yeah, holy crap, not kidding, I thought these were actual screenshots from Pokemon. o.o Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Weirdo on November 06, 2010, 08:04:18 am I thought these were actual screenshots from Pokemon. o.o Same here. These are amazing Terak, you're really good. Wish I had your skill. Only critique I can give (seeing as you asked for them) is if you could make them slightly more rounded and 3D... If that makes sense. But still they are awesome. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on November 06, 2010, 10:50:08 am I agree with you about the slightly flat look, Weirdo. Depth is a bit tricky to pull off. Thank you for pointing that out!
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: BlueRam on November 11, 2010, 11:08:43 am If I didn't know any better, I would have assumed there was a new pokemon series that I was unaware of.
This is good stuff, man. I guess we're both toward the top tier to our respective arts. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Kageito on January 02, 2011, 07:59:35 pm Wow, fancy stuff, Terak. I'm impressed. Would've easily mistaken these for actual screenshots. Geez. I'd so stalk you if you had a dA account.
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on February 21, 2011, 01:56:09 pm This was meant to be a casual drawing, but turned out much better than I expected. I didn't want to risk a bad shading job, so I left the colouring basic.
I'm not sure why I keep drawing Terak as an eight-year-old child. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/YoungTerakThelias.png) Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Doru on February 21, 2011, 06:22:50 pm Terak has the magic power to transform into an 8 year old version of himself to conserve energy :P
I envy your skills Terak, it looks really good, the index and ring finger on the right hand look odd tho' Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: CM on February 22, 2011, 03:52:33 am +1 scarf of boyish charm
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Kenta..... on February 22, 2011, 03:45:41 pm For some reason, I'm strongly reminded of Link. I don't know why. But I agree with Doru about the child energy conservation thing. Terak's the male, slightly-less-sexy version of Natsume Maya.
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on February 22, 2011, 05:18:45 pm Maybe Terak is really the child of Link and Maya.
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Doru on February 22, 2011, 06:55:31 pm Maya was able to give birth before dying :)
I see how it reminds you of Link Kenta, I think it's the hair + scarf Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on October 14, 2011, 01:25:11 pm I joined Marriland's Oekaki board a little while back, and as a result a lot of my drawings have been of pokemon, which I have listed below. They're even alphabetized for your convenience!
Arbok (http://oekaki.marriland.com/doodle/pictures/MO_D_107498.png) Breloom (http://oekaki.marriland.com/pokemon/pictures/MO_PK_37.png) Cubone and Marowak (http://oekaki.marriland.com/doodle/pictures/MO_D_107494.png) Gallade (http://oekaki.marriland.com/doodle/pictures/MO_D_107430.png) Shroomish (http://oekaki.marriland.com/pokemon/pictures/MO_PK_33.png) Totodile (http://oekaki.marriland.com/pokemon/pictures/MO_PK_16.png) Zigzagoon (http://oekaki.marriland.com/pokemon/pictures/MO_PK_8.png) Other new works include: PKMN Trainer Terry (http://oekaki.marriland.com/doodle/pictures/MO_D_107592.png) . . . whose design I'm still getting the hang of. ~*~ Taiyou Torimaki (http://oekaki.marriland.com/doodle/pictures/MO_D_107603.png) My submission for a Yu-Gi-Oh! GX contest featuring this rather obscure side character. I know nothing about this branch of Yu-Gi-Oh!, but I do enjoy the series's art style. ~*~ Obligatory Background (http://oekaki.marriland.com/doodle/pictures/MO_D_107506.jpg) Because you've gotta practice backgrounds at some point. ~*~ Artblock (http://oekaki.marriland.com/doodle/pictures/MO_D_107454.png) It happens to all of us. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Weirdo on October 14, 2011, 04:13:01 pm ...o.0
:O :O :O What... Sooooo gooooooooooooooood............ Didn't think it possible, but this is even better than your older stuff. AWESOME. And your depth is much better, especially in the artblock picture :D Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Doru on October 14, 2011, 05:44:47 pm Epic Shroomish Expression lol
Damn Terak, y u bring me so much envy? Your art is always awesome. ;D There's a little part on Terry's shirt that kinda looks like it implies Terry has breasts, is that intentional? Not sure if it's just the shading though or if I'm looking at it wrong. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on October 14, 2011, 07:17:33 pm Epic Shroomish Expression lol |:<There's a little part on Terry's shirt that kinda looks like it implies Terry has breasts, is that intentional? Not sure if it's just the shading though or if I'm looking at it wrong. O-of course! That's my character, PKMN Trainer Theresa! 8/(Erp. I was hoping the fold across the front of his vest would be enough to counter that impression. I guess this is his, erm, female look-alike! >______________>;) Thanks, guys! Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Doru on October 16, 2011, 11:44:14 am I just noticed but you drew a computer speaker? It looks very well done, I thought it was like an old radio at first nice job.
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: DarkToph on October 19, 2011, 11:57:22 am Gah, everytime you post new stuff I always wanna punch myself in the head for letting myself get so far behind in drawing. :(
In other words, awesome work :0 I actually thought that speaker picture was real for a second. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Kenji on October 22, 2011, 08:18:43 pm PKMN Trainer Terry I should get you to draw stuff for me. That is, if you'd be up for it.(http://www.marriland.com/oekakidoodle/pictures/MO_D_107592.png) . . . whose design I'm still getting the hang of. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on October 22, 2011, 08:25:19 pm As long as you don't mind waiting, I'd be glad to take a request, Tyren. I could use something new to draw.
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Kenji on October 22, 2011, 08:35:12 pm Alright, then. Did you have any particular format I should adhere to?
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on October 22, 2011, 09:48:34 pm Well, I have no standing format due to how infrequently I do requests. >o>;
I really just need the essentials, like: - Hair (Style, colour, etc.) - Face (Eye colour, expression, markings, etc.) - Skin tone - Desired costume (Simpler is safer) - Desired pose (Safer is simpler) - Desired style (A cell-shaded anime "screenshot", an airbrushed "stand-alone" picture, etc.) Also, any references you provide will make life a whole lot easier for me. All right then, hit me with it. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Picard on October 22, 2011, 11:29:00 pm - Afro, Rainbow
- Glittering gold, stupid grin, hipster tattoos - Dark - Glittering Elvis golden shirt, black long pants. - One finger in the air, the other hand on the hips. SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER. - You decide. There. That's Tyren's character. Now do it. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on October 23, 2011, 12:29:23 am Consider it done.
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Crimson Curse on October 23, 2011, 01:13:16 pm Terak, this is really great stuff. Especially your Pokemon Trainer pic. I'll join the bandwagon and state that it is as fricking good as a real Pokemon anime screenshot. And it should actually be that. *Thumbs Up*
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Kenji on October 23, 2011, 05:05:13 pm - Afro, Rainbow Hah. Very funny. Smartass.- Glittering gold, stupid grin, hipster tattoos - Dark - Glittering Elvis golden shirt, black long pants. - One finger in the air, the other hand on the hips. SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER. - You decide. There. That's Tyren's character. Now do it. Then again, so am I. As for my real request... - Hair: Black. Short in the front, little longer in the back. Mostly kempt, a little shaggier in the front. - Face: Blue eyes. No special markings. He's confident, but positive, so drawing inspiration from Zack Fair (http://www.bishibooru.com/_images/81875f12eb8b215da960867e5409eff2/41814%20-%20black_hair%20blue_eyes%20final_fantasy%20final_fantasy_vii%20zack_fair.jpg) would work well. - Skin Tone: Fair, slight tan. - Desired Costume: In the image below, with the addition of black finger-padded gloves. Alternatively, or if it's not as simple as you'd like, strip down to naught but pants, boots, and gloves. - Desired Pose: A 3/4 perspective if you know what that is, or basically, slightly turned to the side. Looking at the viewer, and resting a hand on the pommel of his weapon. No, I don't expect you to draw an intricate sword design, but a katana sheathed at his waist would be good, and relatively simple. Alternatively, facing the viewer with his thumbs hooked into his pants pockets. - Desired Style: I'll leave that to you. As for reference, here you go. (http://i.imgur.com/B5dSZ.jpg) Enjoy, and thanks in advance. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on October 23, 2011, 09:02:49 pm - Afro, Rainbow (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/TyrensCharacter.png)- Glittering gold, stupid grin, hipster tattoos - Dark - Glittering Elvis golden shirt, black long pants. - One finger in the air, the other hand on the hips. SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER. - You decide. There. That's Tyren's character. Now do it. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on October 23, 2011, 09:04:58 pm Don't worry, Tyren, Kenji is next.
[Edit:] And thank you very much, DT and Crimson! I really appreciate the positive feedback. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Kenji on October 23, 2011, 09:17:55 pm - Afro, Rainbow (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/Darktotodile/TyrensCharacter.png)- Glittering gold, stupid grin, hipster tattoos - Dark - Glittering Elvis golden shirt, black long pants. - One finger in the air, the other hand on the hips.

I'll look forward to him.Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Picard on October 23, 2011, 10:20:44 pm I still want to see my Elvis rendition of Tyren's character.
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on October 23, 2011, 10:28:26 pm But- but what's wrong with the one I already made? o _O
Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Picard on October 23, 2011, 10:36:38 pm Oops. I didn't click Next Page.
...IT'S FAAAAAABULOUS. Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Terak on November 10, 2011, 10:45:32 pm Here's my rendition of Kenji, Tyren. It's somewhat simplified, and I took artistic liberty with the colours since the reference was in gray scale, but I hope it looks at least a little bit like him!
(http://oekaki.marriland.com/doodle/pictures/MO_D_112194.png) Title: Re: Terak's Tablet Tableau Post by: Kenji on November 12, 2011, 05:27:49 pm Here's my rendition of Kenji, Tyren. It's somewhat simplified, and I took artistic liberty with the colours since the reference was in gray scale, but I hope it looks at least a little bit like him! It does look like Kenji for certain. I might point out a couple errors that are probably my fault for not clarifying, though, with the exception of the first.- It could be your style, or it could've just been a bad day, but the fingers look a bit awkward. Not a big hand fan? - His hair's a little long in the back. Looks good, but for once, not quite what this character is meant to rock. If you wanted to redraw him, I wouldn't complain, but I do like the end result. You did good, Terak. Thanks.
