@Aguila, oh my gosh, your hand drawn art looks a tad bit better than the flashed version.
But Flash gives life to everything.
The TomaHawk(which I want to call a scythe) looks awesome.
P.S. Dont mind if the hand drawn versions are better.
Your designs are more material, though less detailed, but nothing complex, simple, cool art.
@Tybira, no problemo.

@coolboypai: Love the design but the eye is just weird, it should be different.
@Shinobi Shadowmaster: Looks pretty nice, love the robe. Maybe could use more shading.
@Arthur Dragonlord: Weapons could use more details, Hybrid looks cool, i like the style of it. Helm on Arthur Dragonlord looks little weird. But still, everything could use more detail. Nice work anyway.
@sands of blood: Sky Punk looks awesome! Yes, you are better on armors now :D
@Turquoise: Cool! Colors you chose are great. Shoulder could be better. Keep it up!
@Aguila: The first one is just awesome! Well flashed! Tomahawk is also cool, but i like the first one more.

And my new armor: Demise Warlock

a slightly better weapon this time...
gunblade

@Soulhunter Lee
a good armor! though it doesnt seem to quite fit together :/

@Aguila
your shading style just keeps getting better and better :D

@Turquoise
a nice concept. but it needs shading, and details

@sands of blood
a great design. just needs to be smoothened out

@soulhunter lee: I like the armor, but it needs color. Very nice design though.
@coolboypai: Your weapon design is epic! It should look great if it gets flashed.
Here is a new weapon I made. http://tinypic.com/r/4grei1/7
And another: http://tinypic.com/r/kai7iw/7
For weapons created on MS Paint, I think they turned out okay, but if anyone has thoughts on how to improve them, that would be very helpful.

@Sage: For Paint, that's fairly good. o: Likin' the designs and the general colors you set for them.
I think all I have for you right now is get a bit more shading in, for depth. If you do put in just the right amount at the right places, I have a feeling that they both would look rather formidable.
Good jobs overall though!


@Pai: I did comment briefly via Twitter, but I'll extend a bit here: Interesting design along with decorations. It has a nice look to it in its sketch form right now, and...well, honestly, I don't really have much to criticize on it right now, especially since I don't know much about guns at this present time. ^^;
Are you going to color this one though?


@Lee: Though some parts don't quite look in the right in the proportions department, the idea seems good enough. :] I would suggest looking at some sort of long cloth to get a good idea of how to add a few more ripples in the lower part of the armor though, and maybe work on how your boots look from a slight front view. The boot closer to the viewer looks okay right now, but perhaps you want to consider getting a bit more shape to it--bulk in some parts, skinnier in others, for example.
Otherwise, I think I would like to see it in a colored version!

@soulsyth: No offense, but your art, while it does have great potential, needs to be improved. I'm not saying it is bad, but it would look much better if it were computer generated, or if the coloring was more neat. I have to say that you have some great concepts, but because your designs lack proper shading and coloring, they don't look as great as they should. I'm not disrespecting your artistic ability, I'm simply trying to help you improve it.

Well, I recently suggested these weapons to AQW, and I was hoping to get some feedback on them.
CC Weapons I call Lightning Cutlass: http://tinypic.com/r/34h9xl3/7
Hive's Revenge: http://tinypic.com/r/2ur2ed4/7
Valor Impact: http://tinypic.com/r/2418cb9/7
It seems the weakest part of my art is the shading, but I think I'm improving a little bit. What does everyone think?

@Demonic Sage 23 i really like your art and your right about the shading, however that ms paints fault not yours. i have been using paint for a while (as i think you have) i know that it is week in areas like that, if i may try setting brush to its second lowest setting and lowering the color on the edit color template by a pixel or do and darkening a smear right about the glowing rim part of your blade shadows are not symmetrical so dont worry about that. another thing you could do is just make half of the blade darker then the other. i really like the swords though (i wish they where in game)

also i just got gimp on sunday, so i made these

my personal sword, Flashed! :D

@SNAKE THE RED
try not to abuse the blur so much. but play around with GIMP to find various features, its a great program

@Demonic Sage 23
really like valor impact and its design. keep the effort up :)

@soul syth
a nice mix, but i find that its leaning too much towards drakon's armor. try adding some more original stuff into it.

@coolboypai: Thanks I really like your weapon. It has a good design. It's simple, but elegant as well. The only thing that seems off is the size of the handle. It seems too small the way it looks now. You might wanna lengthen it. Also, the red design on the handle could use a bit more shading because when compared to the rest of the sword, the look a bit flat. Also the diamond on the top should have a similar shading to that on the hilt. This is just my view on it, but it's really up to you to decide if you want to make those changes or not.

@snake the red: Thanks! It's great that you are using GIMP, but as coolboypai said, don't just use the blur effect only. While it does make a cool effect, using it too many times can make your designs look monotonous and unappealing. That being said, your designs have potential, but they still need some work. Your artistic style seems to be different from most others. Do you sketch things first or just draw on the program from the start? The one piece of advice I want to give you at this point is to sketch what you wanna draw first and then upload it to your computer and then outline and color and shade. This might sound like a tedious task, but it will give you the best result. If you already do that, then ignore the advice.

Here is something new: http://tinypic.com/r/qxlb93/7 Not sure what it is. Any thoughts?

yah as of now i am done with the smug tool,
my frist gimp armor
http://i51.tinypic.com/adchh2.png

@coolboypai simple but it works, i really like the red gems the flashed look makes them really cool, and the shading on the blade is perfected

@Demonic Sage 23 i love the robotic/magi/medival feel you gave it the tiny details are astounding you clearly spend some time on this, i am going to start thinking about your advice and draw my stuff out first then gimp it, with i had a scanner, btw are they ninja stairs or something else

@Snake the Red: That's a very good armor Snake the Red, the design is absolutely great. I think to make the armor seem more AQW like, you should start adding black lines to parts of it.
Also the part around the knee looks a little chunky and it could be a bit smaller. The color scheme is good; simple gold :D.

@Coolboypai: Your personal sword is coming out very nicely. The handle is a little short for my liking but the colors on the hilt go very well together. The shading is good as well. The gunblade is awesome IMO. Can't wait until it's flashed. I usually just do my designs in flash instead of drawing them out first.

@DemonicSage23: Wow. I'm surprised you made such great designs with MSPaint. Shading, like cooboypai said, probably comes from the fact you're using MS Paint.
You're shading is definitely improving, so I recommend you move on to something like Adobe Flash as shading is much easier there.

Anyway, I'm a guy who used to do stuff in Paint.Net a long time ago, but in the last week I've been doing stuff in flash and found it much more fulfilling. This is what I've created:

MedicMecha + Pulsing Aura Fists
Shining Golden Dragon Set
WaveSlice

@snake the red: To be honest, I haven't got a clue what that weapon that I made is. It probably isn't a ninja star because it seems too big. To me it looks like a propeller from a plane. I might even add some more things to it later. And actually I only spent about a half hour doing that design. I'm glad I could give you some good advice and hopefully your artwork will get better from this point on. I can't wait to see what you can come up with. As for your armor, it isn't too bad, considering it's the first you made with GIMP. The edges need to be more smooth, but overall it's a nice idea.

@royce924: Thanks for the positive feedback. I probably should use it, but unfortunately for me, I don't have Adobe Flash, nor do I plan to buy it anytime in the near future. I probably will get it some day, but that won't be for quite a while. Your armors look amazing. I think they could use some more details and a bit more shading, but overall they are good. The weapon looks nice as well.

I now present my newest weapon design and a concept for a weapon I am going to make. I would like to know what color to make the second weapon because I have no clue. It will be an easter type weapon that I might also write a quest suggestion for. Anyway, here are my two weapons.
Cybernetic Doom Trident: http://tinypic.com/r/jgqgp3/7
Weapon Concept: http://tinypic.com/r/2n8zw9e/7 Any name suggestions for this weapon?

@sands of blood: Those are some of the best drawn weapons I have seen. Well done. Also thanks for the name suggestion, but I have decided to make the weapon into a non easter themed one after all. I will add more things to it and change it, so I wont be needing more suggestions for names. When I'm done ,hopefuly it will be a great weapon, but I'll just have to wait and see. Also, the sketch of the dude is cool. You must put a lot of effort into your drawings. This is quite evident. Hope to see your newer weapon designs in game someday.

@Shinobi Shadowmaster: Sweet concept I"m glad to see I inspired you with my DRK, rainbows are always win

@Sands of Blood: pretty original idea regarding the armor, I would suggest maybe darkening the lines a bit? it seems kinda fuzzy in areas, keep it up!!

So what do you guys think? Laken

@Snake The Red - Love the gradients, and shading, but concepting could've been better.
@Laken - As expected, your character design, and art as a whole is amazing. Thanks for the concept too. ^^
@Razen - Proportions are correct, but angles are kind of messed. The shoulder spikey plate thingies are centered, but overall it's awesome
@SoB - Awesome concept! Reminds me of a mummy. And the winged character lewk ossum.
@DemonicSage23 - Concepts are purty awesome! ^^
@Royce - Awesome work, but waveslice really caught my eye.

@Aguila: I really love Vengeance and Glory! Especially the colours on Glory. Simple, yet attractive.
@Laken: Whaddo I say? Your art is always awesome.
@Snake the red: The only thing out of place seems to be the helm, which looks pixelated, while the gradients look vector-ish.

Creative!


@ soulsyth:
Direction
When you color your mash up armors, try coloring in one direction. (Vertical, horizontal, diagonal, curves, etc) I can tell you’re a speed demon, so use your thumb and your index finger to distance the area you want to fill color with. Also keep a constant pressure if a solid color is what you want.
Layering
A layer of white pencil crayon on top can be used to blend; this can be done with other colors to create a lighter shade or fuse two different colors together at the seams. Experiment with this.
Finishing up
Use a permanent marker/sharpie or a fine point pen with pure liquid ink over the black lines.

And yarrr… that’s it until next time.

Here's a few drawings I've worked on throughout the past week, or so.
If you like any, feel free to comment on them! If not, please give pointers/examples on where I went wrong.
If exceptional feedback is given on any of the basic designs, I will look into flashing that said-drawing.
Thanks!

(Scythe Concept): Subtle Accusation
(Sword Concept): Zukai's Opposition
(Sword Concept): Zukai's Defiance
(Sword/Dagger Concept): Zukai's Immortality

@Roni Excellent, vivid illustrations! I'm definitely looking forward to seeing more of your drawings!
@Aguli Very nice! Vengeance is looking good!
@Laken I'm impressed as always.. Haha.
@SnakeTheRed Good starting armor.. basic concept, but very nice.

@sands of blood: Like the armor. It has a good form, design, and it looks cool.
@shinobi: Nice concept!
@Laken: Best armor design I've seen! Like the coloring of it a lot.
@snake: It's good, but the shading and coloring still needs work.
@aguila: those designs seem simple, but they are great nonetheless.
@ronin: very good weapons. And the armor is looking good as well.
@exodus: fantastic drawing. My favorite part of it is the weapon. Ever consider making a separate pic with just the weapon only?
@Zuk: of those weapons, my favorite would have to be the second one. It has a good form and I think it would look great if it were flashed.
Here's a few weapons that I created.
Dagger: http://tinypic.com/r/2ry3ww7/7
