Kaleidoscope Tekulo Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) I call it...THE MUSTACHE MIRU!Gads... I'm such a genius! XP(This was just a quick sketch I did before bed. I did it originally in pencil and liked the general design, so I took a picture of it and colored it on my 3DS. I know, the shading is all over the place... Well, enjoy!)

FrozenFlash Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) This actually looks pretty funny although it might not excatly be the most creative thing around. I really like the shade of green that was used. Also, what's that at the bottom right corner?

Kaleidoscope Tekulo Posted September 3, 2012 Author Share Posted September 3, 2012 Haha, yeah I know. I was actually doodling a bit with masks for some characters I was making. I had a nice design for a Kualsi and then I realized I could adapt it to a Miru. Like I said, this was just a quick doodle, so I wasn't expecting any real praise for it. ^^'Also, in the bottom right corner is my signature. It's actually a sort of puzzle.

JPNML Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 someone did it. SOMEONE FINALLY DID IT. A. MUSTACHE. MIRU. GENIUS.by the way, I MUST-ACHE you a question. (failed pun)what are the green thing on the top of the mask? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumiki Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 It just looks so dignified ...I understand why you aligned the mustache as you did - so it could line up with the contours of the Miru - but it makes the 'stache a little wonky, if that's the right term. I wouldn't object if you took a little liberty with the Miru's contours so the mustache could look a little more normal. Right now, it looks like it has gravity-defying powers.Also, needs more handlebar. I'm just sayin'. Quote avatar by Lady Kopaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleidoscope Tekulo Posted September 3, 2012 Author Share Posted September 3, 2012 Oh my gosh, these are better replies than I could have hoped for. XDsomeone did it. SOMEONE FINALLY DID IT. A. MUSTACHE. MIRU. GENIUS.by the way, I MUST-ACHE you a question. (failed pun)what are the green thing on the top of the mask?I use that pun ALL the time. XD Ask Akano, he can vouch for that. XPAlso, those are just markings on the mask in a different color. I thought it would be neat to incorporate some teal.

I actually never intended, when I began drawing, to add a mustache to the mask. The way the lines work in that area (along with the different colors) made it look like a mustache in my opinion, so I decided to call it a "mustache miru" due to the design. Also, I must say that defying gravity only fits the mask more seeing as it's the mask of levitation. XP Though, now I am tempted to alter a Kualsi into a handlebar design... Or maybe I should browse the masks to see-wait... I just thought of the perfect one. XD Quote Executive Vice President of Tomato Throwing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuile the Paracosmic Tulpa Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) "Lewa? I haven't known-heard of any one named Lewa. But he sounds like a very ever-handsome, quick-thinking Toa-hero."Seriously now, I love the colors and the style, and I really do think it was a brilliant artistic addition to the mask, even if it wasn't entirely intentional. I can just see Le-Metru Matoran going out on the town with their little top hats and monocles. . . .EDIT: And I just realized the six eyebrows are an addition to the original miru. Actually, it reminds me of the 2008 Mirus. It's sort of like a conglomeration of the three.

iPenguin Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) I was just about to comment that the miru looked like it had a moustache until I realised the effect was intentional. It's pretty cute and awesome. Also funny. And awesome.Nothing really to complain about as it's just a sketch, however, I think the black outline seems a little too strong. Maybe an outline with a slightly darker green? It's not really a major issue though, so no worries.

Dwanny Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I like it! Its such a 'well DUH' idea i wish i'd beat you to it! A miru... A moustache... A perfect combination of wit and sass... You sir, are a creative genius.just saying.Experimenting with alternate mask designs is always fun, and you've shown it.Those colours, too, are awesome.Simple, but great.

Paleo Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 A Mirustache.I like it. However, because the mustache aligns with the mask, it looks as if it's crossing over two spiderman-sized eyes. Also, because of the appearance that the eyes are huge, that leaves the tiny circle to be the mouth, which looks just strange. However, I like the forehead. He looks surprised.

Taka Nuvia Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 GLORIOUS. *ahem*No really, it looks nice, and pretty symmetrical, which is an additional bonus. ^^Since it's not that huge I can't find much to comment on... the outline is a bit sketchy, especially at the bottom, but then again, I've never used a 3Ds so I have no idea whether it's possible to avoid that (oh, and the shading is perfectly fine ;D) Quote My art collection topic - updated!

Kaleidoscope Tekulo Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 Haha, thanks for the comments guys. I never thought this would get attention. O.o@ Summer: Anyway, as for the outline, I preferred a bold black one for this. I'm not too sure why, though if I wanted to change the style I would probably go with a lighter one. @ Taka: Also the sketchy outline is very much possible to avoid, I just left it as it is because I kinda liked it and I was tired and wanted to sleep after it was done. XD (I did this right before bed after all. XP). @ Spock: Hmm... I do see what you mean. By the Miru's standards, the eye holes are large. I might tweek it in the future if I decide to re-use this one... Quote Executive Vice President of Tomato Throwing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
