[Manji]

Welcome to week number two of the weekly sketch thread. Thanks again for a great turnout in the last sketch thread.
The topic for this week is Winged Humanoid Robots. Have Fun!

[Juan2.0]

Don't you mean "humanoid" ? Never heard of a humunoid before. :p

[Manji]

[Juan2.0]

Nice literacysuks1 I really like your idea for the feet, and what a great way to get us started this week.

[Juan2.0]

Nice literacysuks1 I really like your idea for the feet, and what a great way to get us started this week.Be a leader, not a follower. He who creates these threads should already have a sketch to go in that first post to motivate people to participate. Lead by example, Mr. Manji. ;)

Here's mine:

Oh dear...I did not read the robot part. I just saw Juan draw a chickie. http://i162.photobucket.com/albums/t253/everdri/wingedhumanoid.jpg

And he who participates should draw a winged humanoid robot and not a chick in armor with wings :p

[Juan2.0]

And he who participates should draw a winged humanoid robot and not a chick in armor with wings :pIf you read the book...you'd know that she is a robot, Mr. Smartass. ;) :D

[Manji]

Now now everybody chill out. I will be posting mine later tonight after work, and yes I do try and lead by example that's why I posted twice in the challenge last week.

Anyway getting off topic here, great stuff so far guys and Greendri don't sweat it your post sketch looks great, this week's topic is pretty open ended.

[antquinonez]

I never knew I was attacted to robot butts, until i drew one.

I don't know who's riled up? Juan made a fair comment and we are expecting a good response from you, Manji. I think this is a brilliant idea and is similar to the draw offs except without the polls. You get props for the idea.


Literacy, I thought it was Archangel at first and I dig the concept design.

Juan, I suspected the character Eve was a robot. Never read the book though. She's so purdy. Kind of like a Michael Turner face but proportionate.

Cool design and a nice quick sketch although we can't see the front. If you can do a front view too, that'll be good.

The term humanoid I've always considered half robot or artificial, so that's why I made my character organic but with exposed circuitry and cable-like tech protruding from her artificial body. So I aint sweating it, Manji.:) Just thought I'd note Juan is a bit of a trendsetter and his sketch triggered my response to the topic.

[Juan2.0]

I'm not a trendsetter...truth be told, I'm just another wannabe who dreams of making it. That's why I'm really trying to buckle down this year and get some stuff done by the time Wizard World Chicago rolls around. I still have a long ways to go (artwise), but anything that helps get the creative juices flowing every day is always a blessing. When I saw Manji post this last night, it gave me inspiration to get up this morning and get going on the artwork. I hope he continues these weekly sketch threads for many many months to come. :)

[Manji]

Bah...it's all good everyone is just playing around Greendri, and Juan glad this got you juices going. I really am because that is what I was hoping this thread would accomplish. And yes I hope we keep Weekly sketch group going for a long time. I'll post mine later tonight...I'm stuck here at work until 11.

some more of my bird thingy

[Spidey]

Seems like a very limiting theme, but I'll try to get one in tonight. Try keeping the subject a bit less restrictive Manji. Not so many adjectives, haha. You should have people pm you suggestions.

[tboardman]

I took some inspiration from literacysuks1's feet from his first drawing.

Props to Manji for giving me an excuse to draw.

[Manji]

Ok here is mine. I will probably post a couple of others later in the week.

Lol yeah I'm a control freak spidey. Cool concept boardman. Glad to see you doing some other shots literacysuks1.

[Juan2.0]

Interesting character design. Some really good sketches coming out of everyone this week. :)

[tboardman]

Manji, nice job making the wings look mechanical, and yet birdlike at the same time. I tried to do something like that and failed, so I just went with the normal wings. :)

[antquinonez]

That's the beauty of it all...it doesn't matter! Just as long as everyone start pushing their pencil.

[LymanFunk]

A quick sketch with a little blending tool.

A little cartoony, though.


I've been reading too much Powers.

[LymanFunk]

I wasnt feeling 'Powers'. I was feeling animated movie type of cartoony....not a bad thing at all!

[fatmancomics]

Looks like a SCUD to me. Are there SCUDs in Powers?

[Manji]

Some really cool ideas and designs guys thanks for the participating. Also remember if you have any ideas for the weekly sketch group PM me and I will use it in the order it was received.
