Medusoid's attempts at art

[Medusoid]

NOTE: newest work is on the last page

I have been drawing my whole life(nothing out of the ordinary for this site), I haven't had the opportunity to share my work with a large group of like minded artists before so this is kind of a big deal for me.

I am hoping to eventually create concepts for video games and anything that fits into that kind of category, characters, plots, worlds, and that sort of thing. I can acknowledge that I am no pro now but I think that(or at least hope that) I can eventually get into the incredibly competitive world that is the game development industry.

So please feel free to critique my work and be as tough as you feel appropriate, and just remember these are all my original ideas unless I mention otherwise so please respect that thnx

to describe the situation...
The dead guy's arm was supposed to be big, that thing behind him is his sole which is what they use as their main weapon. The Estriel character is the guard of the Marcus kid behind him. The secret police or as I said "sole stripped" are trying to kill the kid.
This is from like early 2007 btw. So it's not my best

This is a character I just made up yesterday named Deuxe. As of right now he is going with a plot where is supposed to be excessively "badass". basically he only uses a sword while all of your enemies depend on guns. Because he is the type of character he is, he has no problem killing large amounts of enemies with weapons that wou;d other wise be impossible to overcome with things like blocking bullets and such.

Would love any feed back.

Here are two more. These are more recent than my first post. Still not any where near pro but I think I'm decent.

Oh my gosh! I just noticed I forgot to freaking say I traced the outlines of the kid from a photo of some kid posing in Japan. Most off it's my work, but the things like his height, coat and hat are from the photo. I redrew his head (and face obviously) and things like his under jacket and pants were mine and the guy next to him. If I find the photo again I'll link it but I found it by accident. It's just I don't trace anything but my own pics and it's so rare that I am lazy enough to trace unless it's for reference later, so I didn't think to accredit anyone

Hi! I'm new here too. Looks like you have a nice start. I especially like the calligraphy in the background of the last drawing.

[Medusoid]

Thanks thats my most recent one i've finished so far. I took for ever.

[Medusoid]

I am having some trouble with this guy for some reason. mostly his shoes and hair. But his clothes are supposed to be eccentric to say the least

[Medusoid]

This is an entry for a Bonne Mech contest for the upcoming
"Mega Man Legends 3" game. The two in the cock pit are obviously not mine but the robot is, it was supposed to look like a giant ice cream cone, and transform, unfortunately I was never given permission to be a member even though I requested for it almost 10 times. But oh well I can just use it for my portfolio I guess.

[Medusoid]

This is my latest work and it took me 4-E(FREAKING)-ER, and I still don't think it looks quite right.
This is my favorite character I've made so far, love to get onions concept wise.

[Medusoid]

Heres another one of the same guy from earlier, Im trying to establish his personality still so tell me what you think.

[Medusoid]

These are both fan art of Various Artists I like the work of for various reasons. I drew them but obviously the characters don't belong to me.

[Medusoid]

These are some sketchbook pages and I really think they turned out pretty well.
Would love any kind of feed back

[BadNeuroses]

Cool Stuff.

[Medusoid]

Thanks, did you like anything in particular or just the general idea? lol X)

[Medusoid]

Just some more pixel art
Thought I should mention I used the characters from Earthbound for the kid as a template even if if is just a simple thing like that

[Medusoid]

Here are two that I really liked just for style's sake.
And NO the kid is not clutching the tall figure's crotch! its his loin cloth to get his attention because the kid is nervous

[Medusoid]

My first tries w/ human figure study.

[Medusoid]

First run at a semi steam punk robot. He reminds me of a monkey or ape or something.

[Medusoid]

And here's the finished version. I like dis one betta

[Medusoid]

One of my newer characters. I've decided I'm going to base the plot around classic game ideas as puns. Such as people's blood turns to coins (As far as I know that's my own orig idea so please dont take it thanks).

I obviously still have allot of work...

[Medusoid]

I still cant figure out a hair color that works w/ this guy, would love help

[Medusoid]

I'm reposting my work becuase it was disorganized.

This is a character named Sergent General Kamen. he's draining all the blood out of one of the bosses for a game concept I am working on

[Medusoid]

This is Marcus and Estriel. Estriel is the one holding Marcus. Estriel is Marcus' guardian and Marcus is the youngest person to be a "kept", so he's supposed to be a bit traumatized.
This scene is in an old cathedral which is most of the planet's design.

[Medusoid]

This is a berserker form for the Estriel character

[Medusoid]

This is my 3rd attempt at pixel art.

[Medusoid]

This is Estriel. In all honesty I just drew over a picture of my head. I obviously changed allot but the majority of it was directly taken from the photo like the shading and over all size.

[Medusoid]

This is Marcus and Estriel in a dark alley way. I saw a piece of art for Bioshock and liked the style, so this is based on that but with my characters.

[Medusoid]

This is a contest entry I did for Game Informer Magazine.(I dont have much luck w/ those) But this of two characters from Okamiden with a more violent twist.

[Medusoid]

This is a character or army called the KEUREAN GUARD, created by another character named Clause Keure(pronounced cure) who basically messed up really bad and screwed everyone over so now he's trying to fix everything but is still kinda not helping the situation.
The air is now toxic so the troops wear gas masks and thats a burning city behind him.
Oh and this is from like 2009ish

[Medusoid]

This is a character which again I made up for a future game idea. He's a fox who was made a shogun by gods for his heroic actions but became greedy and too human and became a Demon. He wont let his people leave and kills any resistance to him like this poor fellow here.
