KAIZA attempts Fanart! (w/ a tablet, too!)

[KAIZA]

A quickie I made; couldn't get the idea out of my head:


To whoever gets the reference, kudos.
I might even give out a sketch for it...

[The Geek]

The arm-thing looks familiar but I don't have a name that I can attribute to it.

[KAIZA]

To be honest, I didn't expect anybody to get the reference.

It's Kotomine cosplaying as Great Professor Bias, the main villain from Liveman. Why? Because he was played by Jouji Nakata, that's why. (And Gil's cosplaying as Bias' bodyguard Gash, who coincidentally also loses an arm in a sword-fight with the hero in the finale).

So, today started a new semester, with a new career this time! (after a lengthy and painful registration process) Now I'm studying audiovisual design, and I hope I can survive this time, since the whole thing cost me a lot of trouble to do. =_=;
Anyhow, take a guess which show I started watching.

No really, guess. I started watching out of curiosity, and frankly? I don't even know how to describe it. It's awesome, it's hilarious; it's the type of show that's so over the top and action-packed, plus the animation...yeah.
I know what I'll be watching this season. (along with the BB anime, since I'm contractually obligated to watch anime based on games I've played)

Anyhow, just the lineart this time, I'll color it once I have the time.
I really need to stop being lazy with the coloring and practice shading and such. I haven't reached that Levia-san level of coloring again...

[KAIZA]

Might as well post these old ones too while I'm at it.
These are character sketches for a planned Danganronpa CYOA RP I wanted to make around the time the anime aired, but eventually dropped and moved on. I was reading the DR1 LP while making this, though for DR2 I had only spoilered myself (haven't read the LP yet, wanted to do so after finishing the first one), so the story is probably not 100% accurate.

Possible Spoilers for DR1 and DR2, Plus Horrible Idea

It was to revolve around a copycat scenario, based on the one from DR1, created by a surviving member of SHSL Despair (a SHSL Hacker) with 16 students trapped in a facility and such and such. There was a crocodile plushie acting as the game's Monobear, a computer avatar of the mastermind giving orders to the plushie, and stuff.

What a twist, the protag's best friend during the game (a hacker who helped him solve each case) turns out to be the mastermind, what a surprise. And he dies near the endgame. What a shock. And yet, is still running the game. It's confusing, it was to involve "splitting his mind" into three different personas (the plushie, the mastermind, the friend) and all part of the plan. Keikaku doori desu and such.

Oh, and Monobear and Junko would have made an appearance by the end, taking over the game. It all involved a virtual reality. And the mastermind's plan was to use the simulation and a copy AI to "re-create Junko", of which the Protag was to be a clone/host/something, never planned that far ahead. The guy was supposed to be obsessed or something, and the protag was supposed to show hints of Junko's personality or something. Yeah, I don't know what I was smoking either.

Triple post!
So, college has been killing my free time, and what little is left is taken by Pokemon Y.
Anyhow, since I don't want to leave the thread barren, since I still need to color that Kill-la-Kill drawing, I'll just post the doodles I make in class. Since, even in the best of classes, I can still find myself distracted. That's probably not a good thing, but anyhow, low-quality random doodle dump go!

Many images. Maybe a bit NSFW, I dunno what I draw.

This is what boredom does to me, people.

[The Geek]

Looks like my doodles, just in higher quality.

[Renko]

They are all..."mediocre" at best.

[KAIZA]

Precisely.

[KAIZA]

Man, when was the last time I updated this.
*timestamp*
Oh.

RWBY Fanart

Can't believe I finally got this one done. Kinda. It looked better on my sketchbook, but, alas, I suck at using scanners and cleaning lineart.
But hey, I did it in the middle of a cold, so that's gotta be worth something, right?

[Lycodrake]

Saw it on dA before here and I think it turned out really well, Kaiza! I like it. ^^

[Blue]

Looks pretty damn awesome to me Always happy to see more RWBY.

[KAIZA]

Well, I'm finally done with college for now. Now I just need to actually focus on doing something productive (like a fic or that FE comic, or maybe just actual drawings)
For now, I only have small sketches. I'll try doing them daily or so, and posting them as soon as I remember to do so. If I'm lucky, I could even finish drawing something instead of just doing sketches.

Spoiler:

These are just sketches of characters for an old game idea I had from last year. And a drawing/concept of the final boss fight. I think that's the word for it.



This one...I dunno, I just started sketching and ended up with this. I call him "The Doctor", because I got nothing else at the moment. Originality? Creativity? Realistic arm posing? What's that?

Kill la Kill Spoilers

And this one is a WIP I started last week. I need to get back to it at some point and finish it.
I also need to be a bit less lazy about coloring. I need to get my coloring groove back. ( -_-)

[Lycodrake]

Arthur and co. seem like the basis for quite the neat game, Kaiza!
"The Doctor" reminds me of the Vash the Stampede and Hellsing's Alucard. >.>

[Artee]

I see Honedge, Spearow, Torterra, Magnezone, Octillery and Cacturne

[Five_X]

Good work finishing college! It's nice that you've got more time for drawing, now, as well.

[KAIZA]

Kill la Kill Spoilers

Finally, finally finished this one. Two weeks too late, but at least it's done. I need to find a way to make coloring...a bit less tedious (CORNERS...).
Now, what to do, what to do...?

EDIT: imgur compression...

[Frostyvale]

Foreshortened hands are justice. The arm holding the scissor blade looks a bit wonky, though.

[Lycodrake]

Very neat, Kaiza!

[KAIZA]

Trying to experiment a little with an artstyle that's very different than mine. Also, appropriate, given the Part 3 anime started recently.
After I finish this one (needs Star Platinum), I'll move on to stuff I owe people.

I need to improve on the hand-drawn lineart->digital coloring process. Mostly on getting a clean lineart, which I keep failing constantly.

[Lycodrake]

Not bad at all, Kaiza!
