- Mindblown, yet again*
I must say, out of all of them, I am most impressed with Thingguy. Â Then thedude. Then Lu- Oh nevermind, they'll all impressive!!! :P You have a very interesting take on everyone. It just occured to me that thedude's head is massive. Like in all the Star Wars posters ever, the bad guy has a giant Ego-Head. He is certainly villainous-looking. Can't wait to have it colored in. Who was easiest to draw? I'd assume Talmid, since he's closer, and you've drawn him before. I also notice Stirling is clean-shaven. Do you mind if I use your Stirling head for my short story of him? It's absolutely perfect. . . *continues to jabber, due to having his mind blown*
The big ego-head was part of the base, and it seemed appropriate. :P
The easiest to draw...? Talmid was ok, but he wasn't the easiest. His face went through a couple of different iterations. I think Iamos was the easiest to draw, because I had more of a picture of what he looked like, and I was more motivated because he's my own character. TheDude was fine, the only issue was how slow progress was because I had to keep drawing the stuff around him first. Thingguy wasn't actually that hard to draw - I had a bit of fun drawing a beard for the first time. The hardest to draw was Luke. I tried to draw him, gave up, left it for two weeks, and then came back yesterday and just ploughed through it. :P
Yes, you can use the Stirling head. He's clean-shaven because otherwise Iamos and TheDude would have been the only males on the cover to NOT have facial hair, and it would have been a bit wierd to look at. :P
Well, Vladek doesn't have any facial hair (and before any one of you comes and says he could have some facial hair below the helm, he doesn't have any that we know of).
