Dragon Warrior Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Booyah! 'Tis Captain Jack Sparrow's portrait I drew. That movie has to be the best ever made (putting LOTR and Count of Monte Christo aside) so I had to draw a character from it. Jack seemed to be the most reasonable one to do so. And here he is... C&C are appreciated :) Meh. [center][IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?postid=547726[/IMG][/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 25, 2004 Author Share Posted January 25, 2004 [color=teal]Mod-approved double post. Threads merged. -Syk3[/color] And yet another POTC sketch I made. This character is William Turner (played by Orlando Bloom) in his "muskateer-like" outfit you'll see him wear in the film. Silly Orlando. I don't think it turned out to look like Orlando's character (unless you stand back from it and look at it from a distance), but everyone tells me it's the spitting image so meh. I like my Jack Sparrow sketch better XD C&C, please. [center][IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?postid=547732[/IMG][/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShinje Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 [size=1][color=darkblue]It's really cool DW, I'll check out your Jack Sparrow Sketch too. He looks the character, I too think it's a spittign image of Orlando's character Will Turner. It's shading has turned out really good. Funny, I don't remember the outfit, but still, 8/10 it's awesome [/size][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 25, 2004 Author Share Posted January 25, 2004 Aye. He wears this type of outfit. [spoiler]It's at the end of the film where he tries to save Jack from being hanged.[/spoiler] Exciting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 [color=blue][size=1]That hat... I've always hated that hat.... It's... HYPNOTIZING ME!!! Woah.. I didn't know I could spell that!! Anyway, back to your sketch. Not bad. The eyes are a little funky, though. The clothes are pretty good, or at least by MY standards. The face is drawn well, and so is the hair. The hat... *stares menacingly at the hat*.. What can I say? It's drawn well!! All in all... ah hell. Let's rate this thing!! William Turner sketch: 9/10 Like I said, the eyes are drawn funky. There are FEW improvements needed for this, but I can't give it a full 10/10. ~Kitty~[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Rugh Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Hey, not bad! You've captured his look pretty well with the droopy eyes. Your drawing has quite a bit of detail in there and I think you handled it nicely. :) Oh, the hand on his waist looks like he's doing a deformed "west coast" sign. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 [color=blue][size=1]The hands and eyes... again. They need the most 'fixing up'. The hat, clothes, extra garments... and that thing his left hand's on. They're drawn QUITE well. Shall I rate it? Yesh I shall!! Jack Sparrow Sketch: 9/10 Must I repeat my ideas? Fine... *sigh* The hands and eyes are kinda funky. Other than that, good. VERY good... FREAKISHLY good. ~Kitty~[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 25, 2004 Author Share Posted January 25, 2004 Thank ya kitty. And yes, he has big eyes, doesn't he? That's bothered me and I believe that is why he doesn't look like Orlando Bloom :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 25, 2004 Author Share Posted January 25, 2004 [color=teal]Mod-approved double post. Threads merged. -Syk3[/color] Really? I like the eyes. In fact, I believe that's how Jack's are. Droopy, as Dan put it, and eye-linered XD His hand is not doing silly signs, Danny, my boy, just simply two fingers tucked under. He does that in the movie. And the thing his hand is on is a crow's nest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadSeraphim Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Okay DW, better put my thoughts in writing. This is the bomb. Awesomeness. But the right hand... it's good but the pinky seems a bit odd. Uber detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zidane Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 I like how u did the whole fading thing and making it dark, Especially around the eyes like they should be. Very nice, Savvy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 25, 2004 Author Share Posted January 25, 2004 Yes, I find that hand was my downfall in this piece. It wouldn've been perfect or something of that caliber, but Noooo! I had to go and draw the hand goofy :< Life is silly, aye? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eleanor Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 [size=1] That's beautiful. No, really. And you don't get that stuff out of me that easily either. The drawing itself it very, very wonderful *praise praise* and I like you incorporated cel-shading with realistic drawing. I am hoping that you will post more stuff like this...it's just plain awesome![/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 25, 2004 Author Share Posted January 25, 2004 Well, there is my William Turner sketch in another thread here on OB. That one was actually the first one I drew, then I drew this Jack Sparrow sketch. I thank you for your comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrophobic Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Excellent use of tone and acute detail on the attire, which I should imagine with Jack Sparrow is quite hard to get exactly right - it's picture perfect! It's also a suitably bold image, so it fits well with the character ^_^ - the firm outline works to brilliant effect here. Yeah, I'd agree about the hand, but since it's tucked into the folds of his clothing, I understand how hard it is to be precise about how much in visible. Overall, amazing - well done!

Dragon Warrior Posted January 25, 2004 Author Share Posted January 25, 2004 Thank you, Pyro. The hand was difficult and I didn't really notice it was "crap" until I put it on the web and someone mentioned it. I was like "Nooooo!!!!" so you savvy, right?

Deedlit Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 [color=009966]Awesome picture, Gavin. The only thing that seems a bit off is his eyes. They look too sad. In the movie it seemed that he had a cunning and crazy glint in his eyes, but it looks good nonetheless. :)[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 26, 2004 Author Share Posted January 26, 2004 By using the same style as I did with Jack Sparrow and Will Turner, I've created another goofy thingy like so! It's Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee from LOTR. This is the scene where they are sitting at a table in the Prancing Pony worried about Gandalf. The picture is meant to be very dark since the inn is dim inside. I think I did well on Sam (the one on the left), but then Frodo (the right one) doesn't seem all together my best. He doesn't look too much like Frodo and I sighed at that fact when I finished. It's those danged eyes. Eyes are my enemies lately :< Anyways, C&C, please. Thanks.

AnonymousSource Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 You know I was just going to say... I loved the other three and thought they looked SO much like the actual characters... but this one doesn't so much. Don't get me wrong... it's a great sketch, and I'm not a good art critique so I can't tell you what exactly it is that doesn't look alike, but this one doesn't look like the actual character like the Jack Sparrow and Frodo & Sam pictures did... But it was still quite good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 27, 2004 Author Share Posted January 27, 2004 No offense taken. Like I said before, I don't believe it looks like him. I do know what makes it that way too and it's his eyes. It's always my character's eyes that mess it up. The problem with his is they're too white. :< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKC Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 [color=teal]Mod-approved double post. Threads merged. -Syk3[/color] My Edit: Syk your really confussing me here @_@ [size=1] Hurry up and Show the Pippin! I agree that sam looks better than Frodo in this sketch. Frodo... just doesn't look like frodo for some reason... and the shading on his clothes arn't as good as your other sketches. Sam on the other hand looks pretty good. His face and head seems to be a bit narrow to me, but you did the shading and body (fat hobbit) alot better. The only thing that really bothers me about it is their hair... The hair on both sam and Frodo is too... Fro-ish. There hair is more curley then poofy. [b]Rating: 7/10 [/b] [/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 27, 2004 Author Share Posted January 27, 2004 For your information, Ms. K.K.C., I did not forget the hat. :P From the angle I drew it, his feather wouldn't show up. I even tested this by watching the movie. It's true. One scene where the Commedor is holding the sword to him, that feather does not show. So meh on you XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted January 27, 2004 Author Share Posted January 27, 2004 [color=teal]Mod-approved double post. Threads merged. -Syk3[/color] Yes, but curly hair is so hard to do :< And you can't really do curly hair the way I made my sketches. I wanted them to kind of have that [b]bold[/b] outline. Meh...
