just a reminder, you don't have to follow all my comments. They're merely suggestions, you know...Developing your own style is always encouraged. ^^ do keep posting, I think you'll improve greatly in your character designs...

im considering changing the eys slightly. it just doesnt flow very well now that i look at it

thats awsome !

I like them, the eyes are a lot more defining, and the new hair design is very cool.

thnks guys.. yeah i thought the eyes were a bit more defining myself. but really thank michirut

Nah...you're the one who's working very hard. That looks very nice, the hair and eyes are giving him more life, IMO Can't wait to see the rest of the body..

lol i just stink at drawing whoel bodies take me forever

Hah me too... the only difference is after it takes you forever, it looks good!

Cool eyes dude, they add a lot more -- emotion to his face, I think.

The eyes looks really good

okay here's the Shao brothers! (hehe reminds me of the blues brothers....) I hope they are proportioned right. at anyrate they look good to me

nice pictures, Ruroken!

Hey, it didn't take you forever to draw bodies!

I think it looks good enough for me. Are you planning to make it look inked? Coz you can darken the lines...Body proportions look reasonable to me, nice shoulders too...hehe.

BTW, Happy Birthday Ruroken! I can't believe you guys are that young! I'm trying to remember how my drawing style was at your age....

lol im pretty ahead for my age... and well how can you darken the lines? photo shop? er.... im not planning on ink... i kinda want it shaded like volume one of the kenshion manga (I dont know how later volumes look)

I use Photoshop to darken and clean up my pencil scans. At the moment, I rely mostly on my faithful mechanical pencils where the strokes are easier to control at the moment, unless someone wants to give me a recommendation of a good pen and paper. ^^

I can't recall how Kenshin 's Volume 1 shading looks like. Do you have any examples? My earlier books are back home in Malaysia. His style changes a lot from Book 1 to Book 20 onwards.

The pics are awesome!

i dedicate this to cobalt angel

*teary-eyed* awww! Your such a sweetheart Rach! *glompglompglomp* You're just too good to me, ya know that?

That she is.

aww shucks, well im glad you like him angel

Cool!

i was just goofing around with these really nice pencils i got yesturday for my b day. after i finished i realized that i cant stand the color of his pants... im not very good with color as some of you might think. And the sanning also does a lil changing but not much.
BUT i finally figured out proportions!!! ignore the previous pics! YAY!!!! I got him perfectly!

You're soo good with colored pencils, Ruroken! O.O And ya gotta love the hair. (Cobalt's favorite thing about Haiku: his hair)

oooh very nice....^^

question: (potentially silly, pls forgive me)

Why is the skin blue?

Hehe... they not only have blue skin, ubt Haiku has red eyes. ^_^ They sure are a kawaii blue-skinned bunch!

if you notice their eyes and hair kinda cooridinate together. the reason why they're blue is the resuslt of a science experimite from about 600 yeears ago. IT altered they're DNA completely.

So in 2004 communist government took over America, and the Christains were forced out of their homes, murdered or sold off as slaves ect.
So for a bit of a sci-fi twist, about 6 months later this crazy german scientist who basicly worships Himmler, comes to America. He gets permission for experimenting on humans. He uses the imprisoned Christains as guinea pigs. He comes up with a syrum that is injected into more than 15,000 people-all the prisoners in San Fransisco. The german creats these alien blue skinned humanoids. Because of their advanced physical abillities, and decreased mental abilities he sold them off to the wealthy all over America. But the humanoids minds didn't stay dumb for long. They fought against their owners and escaped.

Awesome pic, the clothing design I must say is really unique, gives me a pseudo traditional Japanese impression. Great work, and great background on your story.

mas cranzy plotting Ruroken, it rocks and the drawings are awesome!
