Sebastian

[NeoTifa]

This is for Project: N00b. Tell me what you think please. He's one of the main characters btw.

[Depression Moon]

The drawings' ok.

[NeoTifa]

Well they were rough sketches. I wasn't expecting some great artist crap to come out of a sketch XD For a generic sketch of him as a character, what do you think?

[Depression Moon]

Well I can't make much of an opinion unless you tell me more of the character.

[CONCEPT] Character: Sebastian (http://projectn00b.forumotion.net/what-we-have-so-far-f5/concept-character-sebastian-t6.htm)

I guess you'd kinda had to have been there for the ride.

[NeoTifa]

Ok. Thanks. I was hoping for it to be the line drawing used for dialogue popups and such.

It'd be better if he wasn't Laguna. It's not bad, but he's certainly Sir Genericism at the moment.

[NeoTifa]

Why against Laguna?

[scrumpleberry]

Nothing against Laguna, but the fact that Sebastian is a Laguna carbon copy makes him boring.

[NeoTifa]

He is? How so?

[scrumpleberry]

Look at Laguna's character portrait, and look at Sebastian again. If you're going to argue that he doesn't look like Laguna, I guess you can leave him like that, but I really think he does and he'd be much better off looking more original.

Not here to try and force you to make a character look good if you're going to be stubborn about it: it's your game, if the characters are dull I won't care.

[NeoTifa]

I was just asking for specifics so I can fix it. I will work on one after my exam tomorrow. Thanks for your input?

>>> Well said, because thats exactly what it is. Just a generic sketch..
dont worry too much if it looks like laguna, in the world of "gaming character designs" there are carbon copies of everything everywhere..:D
even pro-artists hired by big companies come up with unoriginal Anime/Tetsuya Nomura like characters.

The important thing here is that you are drawing and enjoying it..
So, have fun..:)

The face is well done. I agree he looks very much like Laguna, but there's only so much variation in anime so whatever. Needs more hair on the back of his head; give it more body.

I believe her exact wish was for a combination of Laguna and Vayne. Personally, I don't think they're really all that special. The picture is good, but I'm really getting tired of this typical pretty-boy superhero stuff. I'm not sure he actually looks like a fighter.

[NeoTifa]

He's not really. I don't think I told Beej this yet, but I kinda had it in my mind that ... I forgot what I was gonna say... mmmm heath bar...*munches candy*... oh yea! He was being tricked into the military, but since the storyline kinda changed, I dunno... *munches candy*
