Jeopardy

Sun, 16 Jun 2013 04:02:46 PDT

I drew this 2 years ago, and being in a small drawing rut the last couple of days the best I could do was to ink and colour something old. I haven't ended up too happy with this though =/ Feels a bit off.

Rift : Telamere

Mon, 10 Jun 2013 05:52:58 PDT

Rift is going free to play! I haven't seen my characters in over a year, so to celebrate I thought I'd draw my low level warrior Telamere. *giggles* She got married to Kritter's character on Valentines last year for a Guinness World Record (or something, I've forgotten now).

Lemon, Lime and Orange

Wed, 05 Jun 2013 04:29:35 PDT

For a second there I thought "Hey Gen, yet again you've failed to name your characters, you're getting lazy!" Then Kritter piped up and reminded me that they kind of did have names Lemon, Lime and Orange I suppose!

The Witchdoctor

Tue, 28 May 2013 04:17:17 PDT

One day I will think of a name for her, for now she is The Witchdoctor!

Swipe Ferret

Mon, 20 May 2013 00:21:09 PDT

Finally a boy character, about time I did up some sketches!

Corel

Corel, anime-style!

Gift : Play

Sat, 26 Jan 2013 02:12:40 PST

Having free reign of someones gallery can be massive fun! The lovely *EmoStarShine was kind enough to donate me a subscription at the beginning of this year, the least that can be done in return is to draw one of her OC's. Play is a crazy echidna, and I'd love her to meet my characters Hack and Killy. Also: BLOOD. I never get to draw it ;_;

Play is (C) *EmoStarShine

AVCon Christmas Flyer

Thu, 27 Dec 2012 22:09:42 PST

I was lucky enough to be offered the opportunity to do some work for AVCon last month, mascots Ayvee and Switch! The linework was included on the Christmas flyer, but I've since had the chance to colour it just for fun =}

Maia

What an improvement from 2004! That's the last time I drew Maia, and it's reminded me maybe I should go back and play Jak and Daxter again

It's officially summer in Australia. I hate summer. I hate heat, beaches and sunshine.

But I love to draw fun pictures! I drew Selby and Jasper together 10 years ago and wanted to re-do it from scratch. If you're interested here is the original [link] Wow times have changed, but they haven't aged a day. Enjoy!

Gen8s drawing process

Sat, 13 Oct 2012 03:19:17 PDT

First off, this is not a tutorial!

Rather, it's a step by step process of how I complete a piece of art. As many people will tell you, there is no one right way, this is just to show you how I work =} I haven't gone into depth with tools and techniques, I'll save that for a proper tutorial one day in the future.

Please enjoy!

*EDIT* - Re-uploaded with a larger file size, full view to see in better detail =}

Draw this again

Sat, 13 Oct 2012 03:11:00 PDT

Whoa! I've had this meme sitting around for a while now, blank, waiting for a chance to fill it in.

Gen to the rescue! I love going back to your roots and seeing just how far you've come. Nearly 10 years on and I feel more refined in my style. Oh, and now I know that BACKS DO NOT TWIST THAT WAY! *snap*

I'd love to do this meme again some time, don't be afraid to do it too! Every day you draw, you improve =}

If you'd like to see a rough step by step process of how I drew the 2012 picture, have a look [link] << here!

Chibi Maker - Preview

Fri, 20 Jul 2012 21:50:20 PDT

Excitement! Here is the second preview from my upcoming gen8s Chibi Maker, which is currently well into production

I can't say how far through I am or how long it will be until it's ready to be released, but I hope for now that this preview can wet some appetites for it.

So for now, please enjoy this sneak peak!

Disclaimer - This is a preview and not indicative of the final version, things are bound to change. Chibi Maker is (C) gen8!

Chibi Alphabet Two

Sat, 02 Jun 2012 00:18:51 PDT

Chibi Alphabet, take two!

Doing the alphabet once was fun, second time around I struggled to fill all the letters in. Queue artistic license, some previously unnamed characters now have names XD

W00t, please enjoy!

See the first Chibi Alphabet >> [link]

Deviant ID 2012

Sat, 12 May 2012 07:21:30 PDT

Time for a new Deviant ID, I can't believe the old one is, well, OLD!

Blackitha

Sun, 22 Apr 2012 03:39:08 PDT

Time for a new character!
Nicknamed Blackitha, the name has kind of stuck. Enjoy!

(And no I have no idea why those skulls are so small, pretend they belong to pygmies!)

Evil Zone : Erel

Fri, 23 Mar 2012 03:36:18 PDT

Erel from Evil Zone, an old Playstation fighting game that was a guilty pleasure of mine

Quils

Sat, 10 Mar 2012 05:57:49 PST

Once again, testing another colouring style, I think it turned out ok! Humanized Quils.

Vista

Sat, 25 Feb 2012 18:31:00 PST

It's Vista! She was first and last drawn in 1999 and I had almost forgot about her until now.

If you're interested, here is her original: [link]

Rift : Reive

Sat, 18 Feb 2012 02:40:11 PST

Finally some more Rift fan art! I never did re-subscribe after the initial play, but have been getting my fix through Rift Lite the last week or so.

For some reason I decided to draw a random one I don't even play, this level 8 rogue Reive.

Background tribal tattoo graphic used from OpenGraphicDesign.com, many thanks!

Sketch Dump 2011

Thu, 29 Dec 2011 17:12:32 PST

Time for a massive dump! (haw haw)
Collected from the depths of my art folders, I thought I'd share this years scrawlings (and actually a good portion of last years that never saw the light of day).

I apologize these are actually pretty cruddy. I have the highest respect for people whose sketches are a work of art in their own right, and one day hope to be able to achieve the same

Thank you for looking, and sorry the image is so big!

Lupe the Wolf

Wed, 28 Dec 2011 05:20:54 PST

Drawing fan art to avoid working on Flash projects!

Can't believe I've never drawn Lupe though

Kitty Girl

Fri, 23 Dec 2011 16:21:05 PST

Last one for now, I swear!

Kitty Girl got booted out of the last chibi lineup in favour of other girls, but I felt bad and coloured her anyway.

Kitty Girl is copyright and for ~Kritter5x <3

Chibi Randoms

Mon, 19 Dec 2011 22:54:58 PST

W I P : Flash Chibi Maker

Fri, 07 Oct 2011 16:50:13 PDT

I know this isn't really a great preview, but I wanted to get something up on here showing the style of a work in progress Flash game that has been on and off for about 6 months.
So this is what I hope will be the Chibi Maker (name pending!). Taking the awesomeness of my chibi alphabet, and turning into one huge dress-up a lot like the Anime Face Maker, except this time you get a body =}
Pictured above is Gen in all her tinyness, using items already in the game.

Progress-wise, I have about TWO HUNDRED items of clothing working so far, so if this ever gets done I hope it will be huge!

So that's about it for now. Next time I hope to have a preview up with some more of the program in it, but for now I'll keep working on it and see what happens.

Honda

Sat, 17 Sep 2011 00:36:36 PDT

After watching so much sugary-sweet anime lately, I had the urge to draw a random girl I've for some reason named Honda.
Enjoy her apricot-hairness!

Mage the Cat

Sun, 14 Aug 2011 00:32:19 PDT

Time for a blast from the past! Mage the cat, one of 7 cat sisters created a whole 12 years ago. I haven't really drawn her since then, so it was about time to give her a new design.

If you're interested, here's what she looked like in 1999: [link]

One day I might get around to drawing the other 6

Dress Up Fairy

Mon, 11 Jul 2011 01:22:41 PDT

Finally a new Flash game! This one is rather small compared to some of the other makers you'd be use to, as it is simply a dress-up doll =}

However it still took me absolute months to push out, and while there are a few little things I'd like to improve, for now I'll say it's done, and about time I shared it.

Please enjoy as always, make a cute fairy!

Granite Island

Sat, 07 May 2011 00:09:00 PDT

Something a little different! Snapped this gorgeous panorama on the Easter weekend when Krit and I went to Victor Harbor. On the left is Granite Island, and on the right side is The Bluff (which we didn't get a chance to see).

Go easy on me, it's a holiday snap not claiming to have any skill in this art at all!

Rift : DefiantQuest

Fri, 06 May 2011 19:18:04 PDT

Time for a mash-up! Kritter and I have been playing Rift for about a month now, and at the same time, Dragon Quest IX. Naturally the styles merged and I got this, our level 35 Rift Defiants

On the right belonging to Kritter, is Aniera the Mage, and to the left is my Cleric named Neritic. Look out Telara >=}

Haitani

Sat, 16 Apr 2011 22:24:47 PDT

I drew this some weeks ago, and saved every step of the way for the intention of making it into a colouring tutorial. Then last night I decided I didn't like it enough anymore and finished it as plain ol' art

I promise this is the last picture in a row using purple pink and blue, oh gosh I'm on a streak of sorts.

Haitani, for your enjoyment

Blade Kitten

Sun, 03 Apr 2011 21:01:35 PDT

Stuck home with a darn nasty cold *sniffle* I thought it would be a good time to relax and get some art finished.

AVCon2011 T-shirt Design Entry

Sat, 29 Jan 2011 20:52:08 PST

If you can help, please read on, I need to get my hands on this T-shirt!

---
My very, VERY last minute submission for AVCons T-shirt contest, depicting their 2 mascots, Ayvee and Switch!

Finger's crossed eh! ^^

Characters are (C) to them!

**UPDATE**
Awesome! I've won the unofficial third place, and the design will be going on the Gold Pass T-shirts for AvCon I'll make sure to wear one while I'm there *big thumbs up*
**Update 1 year on**
Unfortunately I wasn't able to get my hands on one of the Gold Pass T-shirts D= If anyone has one they're willing to part with I'm looking for it desperately!!

Jezz Weasel

Fri, 28 Jan 2011 16:45:30 PST

Very old character of mine, Jezz the Weasel! Her old design wasn't appealing at all anymore, so think it was about due time to get her up-to-date.
Here's her old design if anyone's interested > [link]

Oh and here's some trivia, I named her after one of my favourite 90's Windows games, JEZZ BALL! =3

Character Sheet : Gen8

Tue, 18 Jan 2011 01:39:56 PST

I was working on this over New Years and it was intended to be my first upload for 2011, but that obviously didn't happen!

It's here now anyway, the very first character sheet for Gen (hedgehog version, of course!) because she has always deserved one. It made me think about her as a character a bit anyways, and it's nice to get these things down on paper.

Hope you find it cool/informative/ohmygoshshe'snaked.

Oh and it goes without saying but Gen8 Hedgehog is (C) to me forever and always <3

MLP - Gusty

Thu, 06 Jan 2011 19:57:59 PST

I saw the new My Little Pony series on Youtube the other day, and instantly fell in love with their new designs. Can't say I enjoyed the show much though, and the toys look pretty ugly... But the art is adorable and that's what made me want to do some fan art, using my favourite MLP character of old.

Done in Flash CS4/CS5 (yay I upgraded today!)

Chameleon

Sat, 18 Dec 2010 16:14:19 PST

Got in the mood to draw an old character who WAS NOT a female XD He still doesn't have a name, so I'll try think of one later.

Incase you're interested, here's the original from 2005 [link] =}

Lady Lovely Locks

Homage to one of my favourite 80's cartoons, Lady Lovely Locks!

Warcraft : Mirth

Wed, 17 Nov 2010 00:36:10 PST

My. Goodness.

Not often I spend a long time on a piece of art, they're probably the most satisfying to finish though! This pic has been on the go for nearly a year on and off.

Still practicing digital painting, I'd love to get better at it oneday. Undead warlock named Mirth, artistically beefed up in a better outfit

Sonee

Mon, 01 Nov 2010 22:50:44 PDT

At the moment I'm playing around with styles for kicks, unfortunately I reverted back to my old ways with this one D=

BUT, I did draw and colour this entirely in GIMP for fun, I suppose that counts as an experiment? Still, it took twice as long as normal and isn't as polished =/

Kitty Girl

Fri, 22 Oct 2010 21:34:29 PDT

Some gift art for Kritter of one of his oldest characters, known only as Kitty Girl! D'awwww =^.^=

Anime Face Maker 2

Sat, 16 Oct 2010 02:14:17 PDT

It's taken the better part of this year to finish, but it's finally done and I couldn't be happier!

Introducing the Anime Face Maker 2, the successor to the Anime Face Maker on my old account. Updated, expanded, re-drawn and even more awesome than before

So I hope you enjoy playing with it, I'm sure there is a bug or two hiding in there but I'll try and fix it up as they are found.

How to save your avatar: On your keyboard, press the PRT SCR (Print Screen) button. Go into any paint program, open a new file, and then select PASTE. Crop the picture as desired, then save!

Trouble playing?: If you're having trouble playing this, try using the "Download File" option on the right of the screen. Make sure you have the latest version of Flash installed on your computer, too!
You may also have issues if you are using Internet Explorer as your browser, in which case try the above or right click and select "play" to progress to the maker.

Glitches: Thank you everyone who has brought to my attention a few glitches, I'm lazy and probably should fix them.

It sure has been a while, but finally got around to finishing something new! Humanized Chancey, yet another one of my oldest characters but one I never drew very well haha.

Unintentionally anime-ized, gosh it's hard to get away from D=

Here's a [link] to her old, old form.

Work in Progress - May 2010

Fri, 28 May 2010 19:29:52 PDT

Time for a scrappy-dappy art dump!!

Lately I've been starting a lot of art, but not getting very far before I give up and start something else ={ Thus the result is what you see here, lots of unfinished pictures!

Here's a break-down;

Bayonetta Sprite - (Probably complete already but no where else to dump it)
Fairy Dress-Up - (80% complete, I SWEAR I worked solid on this for weeks ... must ... complete ... )
Violin Girl - (Might name her Viollina hur hur)
Mirth - (Another undead picture =} Trying to paint so bad!)
Asobi - (Got so far and gave up, NOT HAPPY >={ )
Anime Face Maker v2 - (Gawsh this is never getting done)
Charmaine - (Humanized old character!)

As always, I am going to complete some of these D= One day!

Finch

Sun, 02 May 2010 03:49:00 PDT

Another character becomes humanoid, this time it's Finch!
I drew this nearly a year ago when my computer died, and all I had was a crud laptop and Open Canvas haha. Finally got around to re-doing it =}
