Containment Fan Art Thread

They remind me a little of the mumblers from the original Silent Hill game:

Here I made it better.

I think this works here...

These are some concepts for a fruitless idea I've been autistically stewing over. With all the tappable 'lore', if you will, that is CWC, I thought, "God, a Binding of Isaac/Persona-like hybrid featuring Chris would be amazing."

I liked the idea of 'Charb' and 'Borb' as being bosses.

The fact someone else drew parallels between the unhealthy mother/son Binding of Isaac relationship and Charb made me cream my pants a little. You've done a nice job on those concepts too - very creepy!

Last year I got bored during school and decided to draw Sonee's and Rosey's, I also decided to make them more of a combination of Pokémon and Chao than they originally were. Punchy's a red Riolu because Chao eggs come in different colors, and the ones that hatch from them are just a specific color that never change, unlike the other ones. Silvana is a shiny Zorua, Zorua because of the whole transforming thing and shiny because shiny Zoroark are purple. Angelica's a Ducklett because it turns into Swanna and is a white flying Pokémon, and because I didn't really want to use Altaria. I have put a bit of time into figuring all this out, much more than I should have. This is only my second time using photoshop so I did what I could.

I got bored and decided to do a quick sketch of the big C himself. Its nothing especially good or unique, but I thought I might share it. Any kind of critique is appreciated. One hand is in his pocket while the other is presumably scratching his ass because I cannot draw hands at allllll.

Did you do this with a tablet?
 
Yes. Why do you ask?

Just curious. If you have access to a program with layers, I'd highly recommend blocking out your art with basic shapes, otherwise your art will look misshapen and amorphous. If you really want to look into improving, I'd definitely look into reading some beginner tutorials. Loomis books are pretty old-timey, but they're free, and the principles of art are still very good.

I did that.

Huh... Looks like you just need more practice planning the shapes and using them to guide your drawing. You've got a good start it looks like, but the shapes to need a rhyme and reason. The circle for his upper torso, for instance, is much larger than the bottom one and bulges out a lot in the back, his right forearm appears to be longer than his upper arm.

Perhaps a better understanding of basic anatomy would help. I know it doesn't seem like it would be helpful for someone drawing a stylized cartoon, but it does improve your art. A lot.

EDIT: I'll do a quick mockup for you after I finish the RS page.

Thanks. Ill try making the back straighter and improve the bulging next time.

This makes me very nostalgic for Classic Chris.

Okay! Here we go...

Keep in mind, this is more or less just the way I do things, just to illustrate, feel free to practice other methods or techniques on your own.

I was thinking, perhaps instead of just basic shapes, you should start out with something a little more structured. I don't know how much it'll help, but getting practice with it might help balance your figures out more.

This is simply an example of how I tend to start drawing human figures, especially if the poses are complicated. A lot of people like to do theirs differently, but this is what mine tend to look like.

Now, since in this image of him, we're going for something of a grumpy mood, our figure is going to be slouched forward. I've pointed an arrow to where the "spine" is blocked out in this picture.

Another handy thing to do, by the way, if you're having trouble figuring out how far the elbows go down, they're usually just a tad bit lower than the bottom of the rib cage, assuming the arm is at rest at your side.

To find out how far his stomach should stick out and where, I'm going to show you something I do sometimes when I'm having trouble getting a 3D object to look right at an angle. Sometimes if you draw a profile of the object you're trying to draw, like I did with my blue lines, you can use it as a center line (just make sure you take perspective into account and make it slightly thinner than it is in the little side-sketch)

Finally, you can use half circles to block out the volume like I did in green, and then you can use the edges of those circles to find out where the outline of the body should be like I did in purple.

A similar technique was done with the head, mostly the same principle.

And then the finished sketch. I made the head a little too big in the first sketch, so I shrunk it down to make it look slightly more normal (at least, more normal for me, my heads tend to be huge...).

I hope this helps. :)
