VampireBohrok Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 These three are rough concept sketches of the Phantoka Makuta done in Gimp. Click the thumbnails for the complete images.They took about 1, 2 and 2,5 hours to make, respectively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantasia Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 These are amazing, VampireBohrok! I really like how parts of the pictures appear to be glowing.Chirox is my favorite one. The details in the mouths and eyes of these characters look awesome, and its really cool how you made smoke coming out of Antroz's mouth.All I can suggest is maybe add a few more solid lines to the masks of Antroz and Vamprah. Their masks seem to lack the definition that made Chirox look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickeens Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 amagzidgh incridbdlef kutgw brilliant 10/10 ps you should draw kopeka :) :lol: But anyway bro, these are glorious. I love Antroz's colors, and his breath. And Vamprah is my favorite, because the glow on his eyes and mouth is amazing. Great work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squishyfrog Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 amagzidgh incridbdlef kutgw brilliant 10/10 ps you should draw kopeka :) :lol: thsi!!!!!But seriously, these are amazing. I'm really at a loss for words, because nothing I could say would do these justice. So I'll just say incredible job on everything, and I couldn't pick a favorite because they're all so fantastic.

P~M Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 A-FREAKING-MAZINGChirox and Vamprah are great. However, Antroz looks a little too much like a jack-o-lantern to me.I'm totally going to print these out on glossy poster paper and hang them in my room. If that's okay with you.--CV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumiki Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 These are incredible pieces. Your artwork is captivating, especially with the glowing surrounding the eyes and heartlight of all three ... not to mention the smoke coming out of Antroz. You certainly know how to make these look evil. Doesn't Chirox have orange eyes, though?Any plans on expanding the series to the other Makuta? I'd like to see your take on Gorast and Krika in particular. Quote avatar by Lady Kopaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vezok's Friend Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 While not incredibly refined (hello Cpt. Obvious XD), the values and contrast work you've got going here is awesome!I really would suggest rendering these pieces out though, then they would turn from impressive to downright amazing.But that's just me. In any case, lovely work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paleo Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Amazing.The modifications you made to Chirox's mask make it much better, and Antroz's breath is cool, although I would prefer a cloud of breath rather and streams running by his cheeks. Vamprah is fantastic, and I like the way you removed the outer edge of the eye holes.Love to see more. Quote Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axilus Prime Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) I like these, especially since the fact that they seem starcraft-ish rushed a lot of epicness into my mind. Vamprah looks like a Protoss, Antroz like a Zerg, and Chirox like a (somewhat demented, of course) Terran. Great work!

MrSciFiGuy Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Wow, I love them all. You should do more portraits or "mug-shots" of characters. These are spectacular!

kalhiki Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 That's actually kinda scary. Especially Antroz with the fumes coming from his mouth.Kalhiki Quote You're Doomed, Rayman!Boy!

Eeko Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Wow. Those are sick.Chirox is probably my favorite, due to the harder and thinner lines, but they all fit the style really well.Do you think you could do a few that are more than just busts? I'd be interested to see how that style looks on a full figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvirick Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I'd say well done good sir. I love how you've managed to create a good representation of each makuta's sinister look. With just simple brush strokes and colors. Again, very good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VBBN Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I like these, A lot They have a very mechanical yet organic loo to them, and it captures the true evil that something with the name of a makuta should have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireBohrok Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 Thanks a lot for the feedback, folks. :>I'm totally going to print these out on glossy poster paper and hang them in my room. If that's okay with you.I am totally cool with that - it makes me feel kind of honoured that someone would want these hanging in their room, lol.Doesn't Chirox have orange eyes, though?Oh yeah, I think they all do, lol. I guess I thought it would be a bit boring for all of them to haveorange eyes though, so I changed both Antroz' and Chirox' eye colour.I really would suggest rendering these pieces out though, then they would turn from impressive to downright amazing.I've taken both your and Sumiki's advice and started drawing the Mistika Makuta in a slightly higherquality than these are. I guarantee they'll get their own topic once they're all done.why is antroz wearing a jacket? http://www.bzpower.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/tounge2.gifThey're all wearing jackets. I think you'll have to wait and see as to why they are, though.Do you think you could do a few that are more than just busts? I'd be interested to see how that style looks on a full figure.I could probably do that, although there's a chance that the style would be slightly altered.I work in different ways when I do different things, I guess. I'll definitely take that in consideration though.Thanks again, everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 These are awesome! The only thing that bothers me is that the pattern on Antroz's torso makes it look like he's wearing a business suit. The colors and lighting are fantastic, and the expressive style suits the pictures wonderfully!

00dude00 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 even though they are sketchy, I love the style! I want to see more finished works from you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katuko Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 The light effect here is stunning. Love how Antorz seems to "breathe", and Chirox actually looks like smooth (yet sharp) and cold metal. Great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simulacrum Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 ...All I'm gonna say is those are the best Chirox and Antroz art peices i've ever seen. Such a amazing glowing effect, and they simply look like the character, if that makes any sense. That is all.9/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protodite Karzahni Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Yikes, wasn't expecting that. Chirox surprised me a tad. Which is a darn good sign that you did a good job. Of the three, he's probably my favourite, just for the intimidating menace from his eyes. Antroz is pretty good, but that jacket just makes him hard to take seriously. Vamprah's alright, his face just seems a little too thin....Wait, hang on a tick. They're ALL wearing jackets?! Quote I wrote stories once. They were okay.

Mare Tranquillitatis Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Oh, boys. They look awesome! I'd like to get a copy of 'em and put it in my sig!

Soaring Strawberry Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Ooo, nice! I like how you added the glow to different areas, it adds oomph to the sketchy look. The one thing I would change is add some dimension to the black and white one, at the top of the mask (like how you added some gradation to the blue one at the top). Right now that area feels a little flat.GNG Quote New song parody: For the first time in forever (Bionicle is Back) Hi! I love drawing and animation!

Lewa Olda Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Very nice! Simple yet very stylized. It really works as a set of images, rather than 3 separate images. Very nice, I'll be looking for more of your work in the future.
