Title: Draw Fortress
Post by: SigurnFonShnaps on December 01, 2013, 09:59:28 am
This cool game gives a lot of interesting ideas. Letters ascii hide graphics that represent characters in different ways.
All painted personally. Did not understand how to load originals here.
Excuse my English skills.

Those are great! I especially love the lighting on the ruins in the second one.

Very cool art style!
The way the text is drawn in the third picture seems out of place though, but otherwise, great job!

I especially like the first and second pics.

Would you mind translating the text on the third picture? I can read the letters but I don't know what the words mean. : )

Well, basically it says "Here will be our fortress!" However, "fortress" is in a very strange and comical diminutive form.

Thanks! Russian is similar to Czech, but different enough that I usually can't figure out the meaning without some help. I can transliterate though! : D
"Toot budjet nasha krepostitsa!" if I remember anything from those Russian lessons all those years ago... I should really refresh my introductory Russian... Now that I see the translation, it's very similar to the Czech after all. (Tady bude naše pevnostička, if I use the diminutive as well.)

This one is somehow evocative of Hayao Miyazaki's work. Maybe it's the goggles? I don't know. I can easily imagine him aboard a dieselpunk airship.
Title: Re: Draw Fortress
Post by: Comrade P. on January 14, 2014, 10:48:25 am
I guess the kind of clothes on this one (it resembles a kind of army uniform mixed to fantasy suit) made you think so. Myazaki loves that. And the goggles are the favorite attribute of pilots, which are also present in his works.

I have to say, the attention to, and the sheer amount of details make every piece an adventure that you can keep coming back to, and discover something new every time.

This combined with the truly unique and recognizable style makes for some kickass and inspiring art.

Keep on being amazing dude!

Now these look tough (and awesome)!

Are they priests though? I think it's the tatoos that give me that vibe :P

Also some of your earlier images don't show up... or it might be just me?

This is a masterful engraving of Sigurn Fon Shnaps and two dwarves by Sigurn Fon Shnaps. The dwarves are admiring Sigurn Fon Shnaps. Sigurn Fon Shnaps is striking a majestic pose.

I do not know if you draw and design in a professional capacity or as a hobby, but I can certainly say that you jolly well could do it as a profession. This is simply fantastic! I very much like visiting this thread, and looking at the gallery.

The sketches are clear, lively and have a personality to them. They engage, and there is a lot of suggestive depth to the little details in them. Everyone pictured is a true character. Extraordinary work!

I quite like the literal land-ships. They are fantastic, and there is something very dwarven about putting a battleship on wheels and using them on land. I also like how you attempt different styles and methods, and your use of muted colours. Xorosho!

I wanted to draw  armor of dwarves as the middle between a qualitative armor and an exoskeleton (these two central characters of the future comics in which, after the apocalypse, some people mutated (elves and so on) some went underground, too, having changed (dwarves), retaining part of the scientific and production potential that humanity had before apocalypse in many fortress in mountains).

So, some advices (I am not a professional ; that is just my opinion) :

• Limit the talk to a minimum. Use pictures to convey the story. Dialogs should (ideally) be totally skippable
• Use body language to set the tone for the talk ; I think you do it very well
• It is better to do two versions (one in english and one in russian) than doing a bilingual comic

Again it is just my opinion
