[Purgatorio]

Thank you,LordKira,Hassat Hunter,and Julianw... nice avatar ,Julianw.

I will try to post some more soon if I can get this scanner to work.

Hello all - just popping by

I would stay more but I'm not doing much art recently I'm afraid - either busy with work, or writing instead

 

Great stuff Purgatorio, that's very impressive!

Bassy, I've already seen those, so you already know I like them

 

Thought I'd post all the relevent pics I've done in the last few months en mass for you to like, if you want.

Starting in order of least recent, first.

Sketch of Sarna, the female Sith Officer that invites you to a big piss-up on Taris. In the fan-fic I'm writing, Sarna will play a much, much larger role. I've also decided to merge some of the facts, and have called her Sarna Organa - part of the all-powerful, wealthy and corrupt Organa family that are mentioned during the game.

Another Taris one - this time based on the planet's destruction. People have already commented on the crappy lasers, so don't worry.

Almost Futrama - Juhani in the style how I usually draw Futurama.

Concept pic of Deralia - based on a car journey I had...

 

http://img124.imageshack.us/img124/6506/deadarm9pg.jpg

This one is of my Exile, with a twist. For some reason at the time, I thought it might be interesting to give her a unique feature - basically a whole arm that is dead, completely. Rotting away as such. Some nasty by-effect of Malachor. It was a bit obvious that this was not actually possible. If it was rotting, she would have had to amputate it within the 10 years till the start of TSL, otherwise she'd probably be dead already. So I'm toying with the idea of her not actually being fully alive anyway after Malachor. The explanation would take too long to go through here though...

 

http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/6143/swordplay3cv.jpg

Another "unique anatomy" idea - this time with Revan. Put simply, my Revan is not human - she's a near-human - a race descended from an ancient Jedi who are called "Stalkers". (More a homage to Arkady and Boris Strugatsky's "Roadside Picnic" (as well as Andrei Tarkovsky's film "Stalker" and the GSC Game World's "S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Shadows of Chernobyl"))

Anyway, part of a Stalker's (very long, and very drawn out) life is ritualls involving animals of Deralia - often Stalkers would duel beasts with sword like arms. The beast's "sword" stems at a ball joint and can swivle in almost any side or forward facing direction. Stalkers have mutated or adapted or something to be able to do the same-ish - though I'm not 100% how I can explain that way just yet.

-LARGE PIC. This was my entry for the May KOTORFanMedia dueling ring thingy challenge. The theme was Death, and here it's basically the death of poor old Trask...

 

http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/1065/malakspeach0ln.jpg

Sketch of a speech by Malak appealing to other Jedi and so forth before the wars started. It's supposed to mimic paintings of Lenin speaking. I've also include Revan on the steps, and the bloke standing above her is another character that is behind the whole "let's go to war" effort with them. He'll die at Malachor and eventually be reborn as Sion.

 

http://img439.imageshack.us/img439/7331/ju...ltaviiia7nn.jpg

Mind-wiped Revan as Bastila's Padawan on Tatooine - complete with braid, and shorter hair for reasons I won't go into here. I'm not all that please with it though - can't put my fingure on it however.

 

http://img54.imageshack.us/img54/7634/outcastgirl2sw.jpg

Concept of a girl from the Under-City - decided to give her pale skin and abnormally large eyes.

 

http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/2074/worldcupdoodad4xu.jpg

I know I'm posting this here late - but to commemorate the World Cup, I decided to finally draw a Futurama homage that I originally thought about drawing for Japan/Korea...

 

http://img334.imageshack.us/img334/1016/ju...cholimaiib2.jpg

My entry for June's KOTORFanMedia challenge thingy. This one was based on "supporting characters" - basically anyone who doesn't appear on the Ebon Hawk crewlist. This one I did of Saul - and took several liberties with. Firstly his appearance, of course, but also his story. In my storyline, Saul is not as evil as he is in the game - he still has a concious, but is determined to destroy the Jedi. The pic takes place as the Hawk is captured on the Leviathan, and Saul takes Carth aside once more and tries to reason to his old protege, and convince him to see the situation that Saul sees (without going as far to say "Don't you know you're traveling with Revan?" but the seed of doubt is sown) - but Carth of course tells him to go to hell. He still has "Blood on his hands".

 

There we go - that's it so far.

Hope you all likes...

 

Hopefully see you soon.

[DeathScepter]

beautiful

 

btw I am partial to the Lady Revan's face that you chosen for your pics.

[Enha_Dyone]

Jeez you worked hard Zulu

Some sketches are really really awesome :D

Good Job as ever

 

ED

[Xard]

Awesomeness Zulu

 

Have you drawn any pictures about male Revan?

 

Trask

[Xard]

Or, do you have pictures pictures about Revan in his/her cool armor? (w00t)

[Purgatorio]

Thank you Zulu 86 and like wise.

I like the concept of the rotting arm of the Exile,it's like the tomb stones of the Black Death era suggesting mortality.

Malak giving a speech I like.Your eye is drawn to Revan and you consider why she is not up there instead.

If I might offer a suggestion as to what is bothering you about 'Mind-wiped Revan as Bastilla's Padawan on Tattooine'could it be the bridge of the nose.

Personally I have trouble drawing three-quarter profiles especially those of female faces as they don't have brow-ridges....

Thank you and I hope to see more.

Edited July 12, 2006 by Purgatorio

[CoM_Solaufein]

Those pictures look very good Zulu.

[Bastilla_Skywalker]

Yay our dear 'ol Zulu has returned. :D

[Zulu 86]

Hey all, glad you liked them

Cheers very much :D

 

@DeathScepter:

Yeah...

Played TSL first, so figured out that the PC in the original was Revan. She was the female face that just smaked "Revan" to me.

 

@Xard: To be honest I haven't really looked into doing a male Revan, because I'm so wound up in Revan being female

But I have done female Revan in the original armour, if that's what armour you mean

@Purgatorio:

Malak speech - Revan is effectively in the position that Trotsky takes in the very original picture - this is partionally symbolic, as I always saw Revan as being, just as a lucky coincidence, quite reclusive. She would make lots of speeches herself, but not be the main centre of attention. Even when she was effectively leading the Republic forces, then the Sith, her image wouldn't be plastered over every wall. Unlike Malak, who I see as someone who would rule by a cult of personality. After Revan left the Republic, I imagine her image would have been purged - likewise, after Malak disposed of her, her image inside the Sith would have been purged - airbrushed out as it were.

Might go to explain how after being one of the most famous people in the Galaxy, she is not recognised as she wanders around.

As for the Tatooine pic, yeah, I see what you mean about the bridge, definitely. Certainly looks a little flat to say the least. Unfortunately I fear it goes beyond that - every-so-often I produce art that I just never like.

 

Anyway - one new pic. A Deralian concept picture - basically part of my take on the story is that Revan's battle armour is actually traditional battle armour of her people. So this pic is a concept people of some of her compatriots in similar armour before a battle.

Hope you likes

 

[DeathScepter]

that is cool.

[Xard]

That's cool, though if I remember right, Revan's robes came from the Star Forge, minus the mask.

 

but meh, who cares. Awesomeness

[DeathScepter]

Dantioone Vision Shows us that Revan's Robes weren't made from the Star Forge because they were looking for the Star Forge.

 

 

 

Star Forge can used to create items of a newer design.

[Xard]

Oh, you are right, I forgot that.

[Zulu 86]

Cheers for the comments

 

Thought I'd share the piece that was SUPPOSED to be my entry for the latest KFM contest, only I left it last minute. And also misread which US time zone they wanted it done by, so I was two hours out. I am convinced that for the last few months it has been Pacific Time that the deadline has been by (which I thought appropriate, because it makes it a deadline of 12pm GMT) But no, instead it was always Eastern time - which results in a bloody nonsence 10pm GMT deadline - what the hell is all that about? I am convinced it was Pacific time before hand. Must be a conspiracy. I'm sure of it. Bastards.

 

 

Anyway, enough of that "

 

Hope you likes.

 

It's the Exile BTW, during the Mandie wars.

 

[julianw]

Glad to see that you are trying some new styles. Nice work.

[jaguars4ever]

Tell your sister...good stuff

 

I've been waiting for another art topic actually - I need opinion on these two, none of them actually turned out how I wanted - you could say that a picture that meets them all half-way there is actually what I imagined. But I'd like to know what other people think

 

 

And the "second attempt"

 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

That first one's mighty excellent, Shaka Zulu.

 

But like my gang-banging homies Jules & Kor put it, the second pic's contrast ain't legit, dawg!

 

Anyway, keep up the good work! Lest you face the consequences of our wrath and go the way of Aimo & Eisu...

[Dark Moth]

Wow...it's been a long time since I even laid eyes on this thread. Just want to say great job, Purgatorio and Zulu. Those Exile and Revan pics are really well done, Zulu.

[Draken]

Holy. Blast from the muthaf*ckin' past right here.

 

Zulu, I remember your pics. Still pimpalicious.

[Enha_Dyone]

Where are artists around here? Zulu, kotorfanatic, Kor Quel Droma...post something this thread is dying!

[Hassat Hunter]

Seconded

[Zulu 86]

That'll be me then.

 

Sorry I'm not here more often - I'm much less productive than I was last year I guess

 

But I do have some for you.

 

First of all - my entry for the most recent KFM challenge (very nearly took 3rd place) - split into four parts:

 

Panel 1 Panel 2 Panel 3 Panel 4

 

Also on KFM, there is a thread debating the does and don't and the points in between concerning basically everything in writing about Star Wars - including various Force Powers and it basically inspired me into this one:

Force Wave!

 

I've also got some Futurama pics done:

 

The first two are concepts of two original characters a good friend of mine has created for his own Futurama fanfics.

 

Angela

Lucy

 

Then we have two of Leela

 

Leela with a lightsaber! (Again!)

 

Leela in Revan's robes -Amibka, a KFM member asked me whether the previous picture was effectively Leela in Revan's armour - I said no, explained that I had done one of Leela as Revan before - but I decided to do this as well.

 

And one of Fry

 

Don't ask...

A strange idea came into my head while watching an advert the other day, and I strangely decided to act upon the impluse. But yeah, like I say, don't ask...

 

Finally moving mostly back towards KOTOR - here's one of "Juhani" - or humanised Juhani. It's got some blood in it, so I thought best I warn you.

Some red on you (probably a really imappropriate title - sorry)

 

Hope you all likes and thanks for the comments everyone.

Can't say for sure how soon I can come back with some more, but we'll see. I am admittedly also concerned about the lack of the other artists here.

[MasterJediConsular]

That Revan and Malak strip....

HILARIOUS.

[Purgatorio]

Lovely Frock. You know already how much I like your work Zulu ,and thank you Dark Moth.

The thread was not dead ,just resting.

Besides I had a reason for not posting ,I was attempting to contract some romantic illness like consumption to add to my suffering. But I was too lazy to fly to some disease ridden cesspit. (sigh) So the usual melancholia had to suffice ,but thank you for caring. (whimper) :'( (sniff)

The following is dedicated to Zulu for steering me in the direction of the GIMP. But for this I used Photoshop.

I've wanted to er redo Canderous's tattoo for a while ,and could not find any image on the innarnet ,however Ralf_snake had a link to one ,so thank you Ralf_snake I will shut up now as my niceties are starting to disturb me.

Of course criticisms are always welcome in fact I thrive on them and not in some weird way either....
