Character Contest #H08 “Atlantis Revealed” Winner

There were a lot of great entries this week. Seeing what other people think about a subject like Atlantis is very cool. Everyone looks through a different window in life, it is hard to picture what others see, until you you are able to see the picture they have in their minds. And I believe that HM allows us to do just that. I narrowed it down to the top six this week. Here they are in no particular order.

Kellkin- Is becoming one of the fast rising stars here in HM. This is a wonderful design. Great colors for the character, they make her standout. Very nicely designed background.

Jr19759-This is a very strong character. A very well put together design.

Djuby- What can I say, your character made me hungry for some crab legs. lol  Great job with the legs and the transition from the legs to the body.

Headlessgeneral- Characters like this make me wonder about the designs you could come up with if you had a head. Great work. He looks like he is ready to take on anything that would come his way.

Scatman- Wow, she is great, one of the better tail designs I've seen on HM.

Scatman- You are making a habit of having more than one of your characters hit the top list. Great colors and design.

 

 

The winner for this week is Scatman. Great work.

I would like to thank my wife for helping me judge these contest. Everyone's characters were great. I would love to have the time to set down and do a write up on each character, but at this time I do not have the time. Just because your character was not included in the top list doesn't mean that I did not like it.

    SCATMAN: It’s about time you posted a recipe for that “Shiny” effect you’ve so obviously mastered!

  3. Scatman says:

    Thanx!! so many awesome characters ,feels good even to be in with that list!!
    @ Nick,it’s testing colors and good ol’ fashion “Zypping”but most of all I just test colors and how they bounce of of things and make sure that the Items in the backround or foreground are darker than the colors iIuse for the shine.I hope that helps.By the way I have hardly mastered it and I can tell you they’re are so many shading styles that I envy on HM, I am honored you say that.

    I started experimenting with one of my other drawings: limited success, at first. 😛
