Changed around with the head, made the boobs a tiny bit bigger (hope its okay) and worked a bit on the feet. Some more stuff as well but nothing that is worth mention.

Katsu: you forgot to give her an eyebrow and i kinda liked the more pointy nose look. I do like the boob and feet adjustments though.

Mal: all i can say is feel free to take creative liberties. There weren't really sharpclaw elites in the game, so why not make the normal's look like the elites and do something else to make the elites look more important, like gold armor or something along those lines. Honestly though, if you just shrink the normal's head down a little that might fix the issues, I think i could handle them being stocky if the head isn't so huge.

love them all but my favorite is the lizard woman

[Malcanthet]

lright I like most of the body edits. However, the shoulder attached honestly look bad becase it seems too scrunched forward.

Next...what the hell did you do to her head and face? All sense of emotion is gone no present eyebrow her eye is too low without the eyelid.. make sure the tiara line is stiffened up too. I think her nose looks silly ad well.

[SexyFoxTime]

Too sketchy, must agree with Malcanthet, Most of what i dislike is the no expression the hands the tail posture, other then that ok, i know its a rough draft or something close to it, good job-

[Malcanthet]

I'll probably end up drawing a full range of facial expressions for her, since we're going to see the most of Krystal if it's necessary.

Holy christ is that going to be the new fuckable krystal? That looks hawt as fuck if it is the new krystal

[SexyFoxTime]

so i was wondering, how will the shadow be? i made a litle art concept in paint, (had to use the modle malcanthet made ) So tell me what you think

[KaTsuO_O]

Ok, fine my edit isnt as good as i think, so i did some changes:

If it is still bad then ill do a complete trace of everything.

what the hell did you do to her head and face

Just had to close her mouth but then i also changed stuff that i at least think was necessary.

[SexyFoxTime]

Still i think needs improvement think you should trace it >.>

[Malcanthet]

I did a bunch of heads last night will post soon. Katsu pay close attention to the line weight I placed on her eyelashes and eyebrows.. the small cheek line by her eye along conveys emotional content and completes the art.

[Malcanthet]

Okay here's those heads...they're rather rough, barely edited at all cuz I dont want to put tons of work into heads I wont be finishing and refining. But they took a little time, and eeehh Ive been slightly distracted lately, but I have a bunch of sketches Im playing with for the other required items. Oh, sharpclaw edit soonish..likely later tonight (for me) or tomorrow.

EDIT: What the hell i forgot an eyebrow

[SexyFoxTime]

Ok from what i see let me tell you what i think needs improvment (again with a.. PICTURE)

[Malcanthet]

I was just playin' around with different heads and faces. I was playing with the muzzle length, eye shape and position, and hair. That circled spot on her nose? I didn't edit out the sketchies =p

the bottom 3 are the best ones for sure. The first two feel a bit like warm up drawings while the others have more of the eyes and nose shapes we've come to expect. One and two have very simular expressions, sort of a tired/defeated look to them, while three is an great dead pan glare followed by her angry snarling expression, and 5 is a good look for being tired and yawning. (....ok fine or when she's giving head...pervs.)

All kidding aside, these are good concept drawings, and you are right, don't refine them anymore, they don't need to be traced, we don't need a full set of heads to show expressions. All we need is one good solid head, which is your first one, to be fully prepared in flash for animation. From there all the little parts like the jaw, the eyebrow, and the eyes will gain their own symbols and be able to move. There are parts from these we could use though, like 3's eye, or the teeth in 4 and 5 allowing for a more detailed mouth. Otherwise these latest drawings will be expressions to try and animate the original face into doing.

In short one head was enough, now it's up to the animators to bring the face to life and this set of drawings will be a good range of expressions to shoot for in testing.

[Malcanthet]

Cool. The only thing I did with these was I actually changed some of the eye shapes, head shapes, muzzle length/dip as well as the position of the mouth and where the tiara sits, as well as the cheek ruff.

TBH tho I really like the third one Especially when I put the eyebrow on it on the original. I also like how her hair looks.

#1 - Longer, pointier muzzle, different eye shape, different eye height ruffle and mouth, different (forward facing, thinner) ears.

#2 - Slight variance on the first, thicker muzzle , more defeated/ruffled expression

#3 - Completely different head (sans eyebrow) Nose, mouth, hair and tiara position.. I mostly like how the hair looks.

#4 - Grrr. Nuff said. But her muzzle is more plump (though naturally, that will happen when the lips draw back and the muzzle scrunches up)

#5 - Moan, yawn, head. This one is most similar to the original.

I'm withholding the urge to draw dynamic poses >:3 . Its not easy to do. I've had to redo the Twilight wolf girl several times now thanks to my desire to do that. Same with Twilight wolf.

i love it all pictures

Technical difficulties are now over, managed to get all the posts I wanted back in order. This thread is now for discussing Malcanthet's artwork, and for giving him feedback. Please stay on topic and no more whining about progress being halted as there is now a new programmer and artist, so the project is once again underway.

[Malcanthet]

Her.

Mal told me to trace it so she can change it herself "I know, if you just trace it exactly, I'll fix it from there." but she loved the body edits so i did only trace the head. I would like to see a head like the fifth one, but i know that if i trace it and close her mouth it will turn out wrong so if you could make a basic head like the fifth one it would be great.
