Hey jango.. nice to see another artist startin up here. I know how crutial my first sketch was

So why dont you take a shot at mine? I think you might have seen some art and work on it already, but i can always pm you the pics if need be

Good luck

hey alpha
i have already done yours before and ill scan it and post it as soon as i can

O.o ok thanks haha

here ya go alpha

pay no attention to the funny color of your boots

nice work Jango, just a little advice from artist to artist, the way i got the basic down for helmets, draw a lot of close ups while having something to look off of. Helps get the basic down really well

thanks alpha yeah the helmet was defiently the hardest to do thanks for the advice

I couldn't do helmets to save my life.... action poses? Forget about 'em. But here we have genius. Good goin' Jango

well i like doing action poses thank you very much Well more action scenes than poses

C'MON PEOPLE I WANT TO DO A SKETCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if u really want something to do, u can try your luck with Kal's and Fi's armor

kal can you pm me fi's armor
thanks

PM sent

Hey Jangy when you're done with Fi's would you do mine? I believe Kal has a reference picture, just do the white bits silver and add a cape and a syringe to the left arm, and a blood pack on the right leg.

Pacx

will do pax fi and kal are almost done!!

ok kal here is yours!!! I personally think its relly good

i just like to see what other artist can do so do me



just do it with out the holsters

not bad jango! good work!

Nice, thought Fi was supposed to be in there though

yeah that's true... we always work together!

Unless that ewok there is her.. i hope not

ok i didn't know if Fi was supposed to be in there but i'll add her. oh and kal what markers do you use?

Poor Ewok...

here is the plan
add Fi to Kal's sketch
Draw pacx's mando
sketch C1RCA's mando

I use Fibracolor Pro Series... they're $22 for a 100 count set at Michael's here in FL... hope they have 'em in Oklahoma cause I only have 1 and a half sets left... lol just bought a new set last friday.

I know theyre not here in Saskatchewan

yeah sorry Lev'ika I don't even know of any comparable brands either, mine are mid quality and low price range markers... they're better than crayola and a little more expensive, not nearly as nice as the Pro Mark or Artist Guild brands, but Fibracolor does fine for what I need, just wish I could get better at picking colors and backgrounds.

here ya go pacx

i modified the visor around a little hope you like it

Wow, I'm impressed vod!

You're really good at this lark!

hey bro, looks great gonna give you a tip about drawing weathered clotheing

When i do it i just let my hand go free. Just let your hand draw the rips freely if that makes sense. Maybe its just something im able to do but its worth giving it a try

tip #2: try ripping an old shirt, and see the different patterns on it - remember, not every slice will be neat

most tears won't be as big, and really try to limit the number of tears... remember sometimes less is more. Only thing I really see that you need to think about is the arms and legs... it's more a stylistic thing tho so... I think in your style it works great as is, but... just something to think about, for anime/fusion style comic art... the arms from wrist to elbow is the same length as from elbow to shoulder. The arms should be the same length as the legs (for proportionality's sake). The legs are the exact same length as the distance from the top of the head to the bottom of the groin. The leg measurement should start at the hip and does not include the boots, but does include the feet... I suggest drawing the figure first, then adding clothing/armor/weapons/boots/buy'ce OVER your figure... all in pencil BEFORE inking anything. Once that's done just erase the pencil lines and go forth with your colors and viola! A masterpiece... like I said tho with the proportions it's all stylistic, I like the style u're using... it's actually quite interesting

sorry, that turned into a not so quick tip! lol

TL;DR.


Srsly, listen to Kal'ibuir. He knows his art.

Ever doing a bio, I'm your mando.

hey everyone
thanks for all the advice
im almost done w/ C1RCA's mando and then i'll add in Fi
thanks

hey pacx would you mind doing a bio for meat the mercs i go as Ori'ramikad Veshokv so if you do do one for me will ya use that name? thanks
Jango

A bio for you? Of course ner'vod, you did a picture for me

Just PM me any information you want in the bio and I'll get right on it.

Ori'ramikad Veshokv – Prudii Publishing
Commissioned by Jango 425
Ori’ramikad Veshkov was born and raised into the Mandalorian ways on Mandalore. His father, one of Jaster Mereel’s lieutenants, taught the young Ori’ramikad about fighting and by age 12, he was well-practised in hand-to-hand combat, long range scoped warfare and short range fighting. Despite all his skill, he couldn’t defend his parents from Jedi marauders; they were slaughtered when he was just 13.
As the Mandalorian Civil War broke out, Veshkov joined the True Mandalorians, fighting alongside Jango Fett and Jaster Mereel themselves. Veshkov served with the Mandalorians right until the battle of Galidraan, where he escaped the destruction of the Mandalorians by diving down a foxhole. He then began a life as a mercenary, working with the Galactic Empire, Alliance to Restore the Republic and even the Black Sun.
After the end of the Galactic Civil War, Veshkov fought with the New Republic to defeat the Yhuzaan Vong. He scored over 400 kills in the war, acquiring countless Vongese pelts. He eventually teamed up with Galaak Vhi’tor and Kal Waco and managed to, as a squad, rack up over 6,000 kills. During the war, he was captured after being separated from Kal and Galaak. He was placed in a cell deep under the Vongese headquarters. He fought his way out, despite being stripped of all weapons and armour.
After the war, Veshkov retired and went back to Mandalore, but not after finding and slaughtering the Jedi who killed his parents. He was buried in full armour and had the dug double depth to keep his weapons with him.


There ya go vod. If there's anything you want added I'll do it.

THAT IS SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT

I SEE YOU'RE EXCITED!

hey Jango no prob take ur time ner vod

thanks kal
here is adonian's custom, im relly pleased how this came out



and I wanted to put zuka's on here too

Nice ner'vod!!!!!!!11one!!

Lucas would be proud xD

not bad jango, only thing i would say is work on the arms, they don't curve, at the elbow, they angle. Remember that the upper and forearm are two seperate straight lines. keep practicing because I see improvement each time.

Thank ya for putting the sketch on here because where it was last (my first post) IS DYING because no one will comment on it
EDIT, Jango You can do a group shot of all the customs in a leisure stance with our Blasters at our side and one with me and prudii looking Downward as if looking at a mandalorian who is down

Jango

Oooh! I can't wait for that one.

Alright I restarted the the group sketch, it didn't look right so just got to hold on a while, and I'm going to do Zuka's sketch w/ Pacx and then I can spend time on the group sketch and then I'll do our squad.

thx

I'll post it up shortly Jang'ika. Need a few min to get it sorted.

that's awesome! your wings kind of look like buzz lightyears!!

k guys couldn't resist sketching myself here it is

Looks good Jango.
By the way, how's the real armor coming along, I'd love to see some pics.

adonian i haven't done anything w/ it im going to cut out the knee armor soon I hope

looks good jang'ika

nice.. you should really get yourself a sketch pad tho, can tell its on the back of armor templates just havin fun with ya. But seriously, a sketch pad really comes in handy

he he actually... lol believe it or not, partial inspiration was buzz lightyear's flightpack! lmao It's more based on the Clone Jet Pack used by the Airborne clones of the 212th. I added the retractable pannels so that when it's folded it doesn't drag the ground or get in the way of rapid movement/sitting on benches in dropships (i.e. getting in the way during trooping). The outer wing retracts into the inner wing, the inner wing folds into the body of the jetpack. The jetpack is a hybrid of the Clone Jet Pack, Buzz's jet pack and a jetpack I saw in the Flashpoint issue of the KOTOR comics.

ok guys here is a sketch I did for a boy that has relly influenced me. I was IMing him and asked him if he wnated me to do a sketch for him and he said sure. HE just had surgery so please keep him in your prayers. Here is his mando

Praying!

Cool set! Those crosses on the plates? Kinda reminds memof the three crosses on the hill were the Crucifixion happened, ya know?

Totally! Nice job jango

yeah ord'ika that's what I was trying to capture

ok here is what i've done with the big overall whatever zuka asked for i've got Alpha, and Pacx completly done and mine has been inked in it still needs to be colored so I've got 4 people left to do should be done today

awesome work Jang'ika... looks good. Can't wait to see the big project!

Jango, i think I have been Seeing your posts so much that I'm thinking of opening up my bible and starting too read on a daily amount
edit
Also Im waiting on the group sketch
EDIT
put me at the corner with My ripper out and Checking my medical computer

hey zuka umm I might shoot ya a pm about reading your bible and I've already inked you in on there sorry but I just got a new sketch book and I'm going to copy my sketches into it and I'll edit it in there.
Jango

hey Zuka if u're ever interested in knowing what we believe and why... let me know, I'll give u all the verses in the Bible u need to know what the Christian faith is based on... it's called the Roman Road.

BTW... I AM NOT TRYING TO INDOCTRINATE ANYONE! I just want to offer the option, ppl should be able to make their own choices, but they should always be informed choices (IMO). I also want to give u an idea of how it works for us.

ok I've got 3 people done and one almost done w/ another

cool! Oya vod, just keep drawing! lol

I was an Avid christian Before i hit age 13 then I thought "Why is there murder and poverty if there is a god that watches over us and cares for us" and then that dug into my christian roots and uprooted the Tree that is Christianity.
In comparison of the Old and New Testaments I was preferential of the old testament.
The sky that was Above Israel during Jesus' birth, is actually the sky that is above Lunenburg during Christmas, so there is food for thought

What operation did this dude have Jang'ika?

*cough* can we keep out the Religious stuff? It's fairly *cough* umm.... y'know.

hey sorry pacx just thinking 'bout etirnity here

he he yeah Pacx I've had my say I'm done... just something that's very important to me... like I said earlier tho, NOT TRYING TO INDOCTRINATE ANYONE! As for the artwork... still waiting ner vod!

ok Kal it's almost done better hurry or adonians going to come after me!

and me. I'm here. In the shadows... so you'll never see me. Always waiting. You'll only ever see where I've been - dead corpses strewn about the place.

um Pacx i'll always known when you're here the "ON" sighn is on right now and im impossible to kill
