Re: Runouw Playing Cards - The Comeback

Postby Asterocrat » January 7th, 2017, 1:07 pm

After quite a bit of time spent brainstorming, choosing members and organizing them, I can finally say I have a table for the Playing Cards that is almost complete and pretty satisfactory! Hopefully, I managed to keep the number of currently active members and past members balanced.

The table is not 100% definitive at the moment, and changes can be made, so make sure to drop a reply if you have anything to say or to ask about the table, if you think someone should be moved up or down, if you think someone is missing. On that matter, you'll notice there are two remaning cards left unassigned, and I'm not sure who is should be added at this point. Two more people were considered but I have doubts about including them, so these cards will stay blank for now, in case replacements for these two members can be found.

But while the layout of the table is subject to change, which members are included the deck is pretty much fixed at this point. This means that THE DRAWING PROCESS CAN NOW OFFICIALLY BEGIN! Because of the way I envisioned some cards; especially face cards, which will feature two variations of the same member to reference standard face card designs; I have counted I will have to draw 67 characters - 2 characters on the Ace of Spades (the Runouw brothers) and every face card, 1 for every other card. If we are counting additional characters and mascots I decided to include in some cards (nin's Fire Kirby, YB's Yoshi Boo, a Bagz character for me, maybe more...), this takes the total to over 70 characters! Point is, there is work to do, so let's get going!

Check out the table in the first post!

I am aware, people in chat have helped me catch up on things that happened while I was gone. However, I could move AniLo, but I really want him to remain a face card - because face cards will have this dual personality design I came up with last time, and I really liked AniLo's - but for him to be a King or a Jack is a bit to high for AniLo, in m opinion. However don't worry, I will respect this choice and make AniLo's sufficiently ambiguous.
If that still bothers you or AniLo, please say it, I'll make sure to change the table, so everyone can be confortable with their respective card/placement.

Asterocrat here, bringing you good news!

I am a little over 1/11th of the way done! For those too lazy to do the math, that means I have so far drawn 5 of the 54 cards, and to celebrate that achievement, I'm sharing my designs with you. The first five members are, in chronological order:
  • Runouw!
  • NanTheDark!
  • level4!
  • WickedOreo!
  • and Demonik!

Quality of pictures is relatively low, they are taken from my phone.

Runouw: show
This was mostly a test. It might get remade in the future because a few things are in need of a change.

NanTheDark: show
The pose is directly taken from this artwork by Nan. I just really liked it
Image

level4: show
In my mind, our unsung SM63 god is apparently a steampunk time traveling level designer from the future.
Image

WickedOreo: show
Our local wicked scientist studies the properties of Oreo snacks.
Image

Demonik: show
Does Demonik, the tavern-owning ex-global-moderator, even have a beard? You bet he does in my mind

Make sure to leave a reply with any comment, question, criticism, joke; or leave a thumbs up; it really helps me stay motivated :>

Don't you mean level4'ing up


By the way, I have a request for my card, if you don't mind. I have a green jacket I wear like all the time, unless it's warm outside and I don't need it. It doesn't have any particular designs on it, it's just a zip-up jacket with a hood on it, but it's like my favorite jacket. If you could incorporate that into my card design, that'd be great. If you want to put a cool design on it, that's cool too.

You are like, extremely good. Simple as that. My only real criticism, as a stickler in anatomical accuracy, is Steven (in the runouw one) has one leg that is either abnormally fat or abnormally skinny. I'm leaning more towards abnormally fat.

Also, since you probably have no idea what to do for me, I don't really care how you go about it. Just know I'm going to school to be a vet, that should give you enough of an idea. (no lab coats, vets don't wear lab coats, they wear scrubs)

Karyete: I don't have anything to say to you, I've been deliberately trying to not offend you for years, actually, but apparently everything I say to you is wrong. You come across as so aggressive that you successfully intimidated me into not wanting to talk to you
Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.
Karyete: How pathetic
