I hate conservative characters

[Tyler_Legrand]

These are conservative and "rational":

"That's excellent airbrushed shading"

"I love their expressions, I can tell exactly what they're thinking"

"What a wide variety of characters!"

"Again, what an array of vastly different people"

These aren't:

"The chin looks too big make it smaller"

"There's something wrong with his eyes make them smaller"

"Goddamn it's just plain ugly I hate it"

Guess which ones I find way more exciting.

What I'm trying to say is, don't be afraid to ignore conventions when character designing, if that wasn't obvious.

If you're going to follow this advice, please remember that there's a difference between unconventional and plain old shitty looking.

Tyler, if you're trying to dig at the comments people are giving to artwork remember that a lot of those comments are given to conventional drawing attempts anyway.

Ren is the best character ever; look, personality, expressions, voice, everything.

Am I doing it right? :fmita:

Am I doing it right? :fmita:
It doesn't look right to me. The head, maybe. But screwdriver arms and rockets don't make something unconventional. They just make it look stupid.

Oh and if that's blood coming out of the eyes, it's even worse than I thought.

[Spastic]

There can be exceptions, but for the most part I agree with you. Ren and Stimpy are the first exception that come to mind.

I didn't get this thread for ages because Fairly Odd Parents is pretty irrational when you look at what you're grouping it with.

+I'm more interested in what characters are like than how they're drawn, unless they're style is IMPETUOUS.

I don't see why this thread is in the sc :fmita:
