DOOMGUY11: Why is this here? It belongs in a museum!

Rick2tails: yes the deep symbolism of the 6 peas on the plate speaks to us all!

Doprolol: I want my 2011!

Toryu-Mau: ... THIS ONE DOES NOT COMPREHEND. EXTRAPOLATE~! D^:<(

DOOMGUY11: Ha! This is like every child's imagination I like it

Toryu-Mau: ... Tribute to one of the best cartoon to grace us this decade, and to the artist I respect a great deal. Cheers, mr. McCracken. ( Raises tea cup respectfully ) >):^]

Toryu-Mau: ... Katia the Wanderable and Quill Dodger~! >):^D
Beware, ne'er do wells~ Justice cometh swiftly as the Nightingale~! D^:(<

Rick2tails: adorable

bluedraggy: Is that real sparkle-ink? Man I haven't seen anyone use media like that since... well, probably a Kaz stream actually.

DOOMGUY11: I bet it is sparkle ink, looks like it, sparkles like it. But I may be wrong

Toryu-Mau: @bluedraggy: ... One of the boons of being a traditionalist~ Metallic Markers~ ♪
Digital medium just don't have the same tactile feel to it, and turns out too sharp and clean for me to feel comfortable with. >):^/
I Need my daily dose of ART ASMR from holding actual physical paintings in my hands, eh?
It's like... Zen, except this is actually productive and results in something that can be shared with others. c^:(<

Jadezzar: This one are made by using photoshop. I'm working on this pic, with lots of alteration, when disaster struck. Also originally posted in DeviantArt.

Jadezzar: Critiques and advices would be nice, if someone wants to

DOOMGUY11: The bodies are good I wouldn't change a thing, the heads could use some nice,respectful,caring attention yes?But I am in no position to critique just wait for the real deals

DOOMGUY11: I like their armor, that's another thing it's good. The heads look better now that I analyzed it more (sorry)

Toryu-Mau: @Jadezzar: ... Here's your dose of art vaccine from me~ ( Wields a syringe menacingly ) >);^D
The fingers have been traced thinner then they should be, and the joint locations on the arm is off, due to straying too far from the original sketch. >):^/
And keep in mind that tails have skeletal structure inside that cannot bend at a sharp angle... Poor Jadezzar possibly got bone fracture from zigzagging his tail in this manner. >):^c Try evening out the angles by altering Katia's tail to match the curls, eh?
That's about it from me, M8. Hope it helps. c^:(<
I'm a traditionalist, so digital art is outside of my sphere of influence... Perhaps bluedraggy could point the way to digital coloring? But not about line art, BD specializes in coloring specifically.
Maybe Radian or Roninsmall could give some pointers on line art, but they are super busy so I wouldn't bug 'em, M8.

Jadezzar: @Toryu-Mau: Thanks. As far as I can remember, I did many alterations already. Problem is, now my laptop broke, so I can't access it. If it still there after being repaired, I'll finish it. If not, then I'll work again using this one.

Toryu-Mau: @Jadezzar: ... Don't be afraid to "Break a few eggs" M8.
A lot of times it is more productive to discontinue a piece that is derailing away from the original vision and start a brand new one. >):^]

DOOMGUY11: This pencil has served me for 1 year and still hasn't let me down, but katia makes things difficult for it

Toryu-Mau: ... The Power~ is in your hands~! ( Raises pencil like the Excalibur ) >):^D

PS: ... Try resizing the picture's height to under 777 pixels, so the picture can be seen in one screen, eh? it's kind of troublesome to scroll around on a huge picture, M8.
MS Paint can do resizes just fine, so no need to get a Photoshop just for this one thing either. >):^]

LuminosityXVII: @Toryu-Mau: The precise pixel height needed for that will vary from computer to computer, though

DOOMGUY11: Yeah I use a smartphone take a pic(sideways)and upload

Toryu-Mau: @LuminosityXVII: ... But... Lucky number~ ( Pouts ) >):^<

Rick2tails: doom guy there are plenty of programs that can let you edit pictures including their sizes. I use irfanview myself an old and free picture viewing program.

AMKitsune: @Toryu-Mau: Or, you can click the image a few times to fit it to your screen (or set the image size in the "Image Controls" panel on the left)

DOOMGUY11: In sorry guys hopefully I find a way to shrink images if need in the future

Toryu-Mau: @AMKitsune: ... Oh yeah... there's that, but I like to be the helpful helper and preset it so Booru M8's don't have to wrestle with the UI. c^:(<

Toryu-Mau: @DOOMGUY11: ... I sent ya a short tutorial on the subject, M8. It's pretty simple. >):^]

Toryu-Mau: … Be the functional one and stop fires before it begins, M8s! ( Strikes a PSA pose, pointing at the audience. ) >):^D

Shout out to Lumin for inspiring this little venture~ c^:(<

DOOMGUY11: Omg

Streetwind: But, but... the slaughterfish are already in a perfectly serviceable pot! Just light a fire under the well and dump a crate of wine into it, and voila.

That's how witch hunters would think about it!

Kazerad: @Streetwind: A witchhunter would note that there's already a fire under the well. It's just too far under.

DOOMGUY11: I need your dkills

bluedraggy: The mind that conceived this is a mind I really like, bizzare as it is. That you could also draw it is awesome. Best of all, it made me laugh.

Rick2tails: " a runabout! I`ll steal it! NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW!"

Jadezzar: Nice pic. Wish I could do as well as yours.

DOOMGUY11: I just hear spongebob saying "imagination" when I see this pic,y?

Toryu-Mau: @bluedraggy: ... Yes, YES! My nefarious and entirely selfish schemes to make everyone smile is starting to take effect~ ♪ ( Laughs maniacally )
>):^}

LuminosityXVII: @DOOMGUY11: I suddenly feel fairly certain that this butterfly is going to indirectly cause the entire town to burn.

Toryu-Mau: @LuminosityXVII: ... The prismatic creatures hold power~! There's a reason some cultures venerate them as Deities, M8. >):^D
Or they are just pretty, either of those two reasons are good enough to fan chase after. c^:(<

DOOMGUY11: @LuminosityXVII: how come? Because there is no town left, I saw an imp and...yeah I went into a blind rage I don't remember

DOOMGUY11: @LuminosityXVII: but this butterfly was scaring the folks and made them destroy their own town so I assumed it was an imp

angrybacteria:

Armored-Struggle-Wagon: Katia's had enough of your shit.

Vidiotdragon: I now want to see a Katia in the form of those doomguy collectibles from the game.

Toryu-Mau: Let me guess.
She chugged a whole pint of three century old Dwemery gutrot.
Hell won't know what hit'em.

Kewot_Rokar: For a second, thought it was Fem Shep Katia.
Let the Mass Effect jokes ensue.

ErrorLink: [S]Katia: Rip and Tear.

DOOMGUY11: YEAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!

DOOMGUY11: THIS IS A FUCKING NICE PIC YO!(sorry I'll stop now)

DOOMGUY11: I wonder how the bartender and rajiira would sound like due to Pyrals(check him out on yt) helping give katia a voice already

DOOMGUY11: Best one I made so far thanks Toryu-Mau!

Rick2tails: love triangles are always interesting. Theres always someone liking someone else who doesnt like them back. this is cute

DOOMGUY11: Just by the way this whole image is up for your guys interpretation

Krozbott: my interpretation of the pic: Katia is uninterested in both of them, Bartender is interested in Rajirra, and Rajirra doesn't like bartender. That's just my interpretation

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: @Krozbott: The most correct interpretation.

DOOMGUY11: Shipping in a nutshell

DOOMGUY11: Umm is anyone here? If you are reading this say/type hi or I RIP and TEAR you apart

Rick2tails: chill doomguy

DOOMGUY11: @Rick2tails: ok I'm sorry I just get worked up

Doprolol: Я ХУДОЖНИК

DOOMGUY11: Да. Искусство красиво
"Yes. The art is beautiful"
Also why u do dis?

DOOMGUY11: Это просто слишком смешно

Doprolol: @DOOMGUY11:

Toryu-Mau: ... What Even... . >):^?

Sashimi: @Toryu-Mau: I second that.

Doprolol: Подумаешь руки из жопы

Queenish: I come back after a few days of not checking Prequel and this is the first thing I see in the fanart page. I'm so happy and mad that this exists.

DOOMGUY11: @Queenish: ik that's what I thought seeing this

AMKitsune: @Toxic: Ok, I get it now.
In that case, I'd vote for the realistic style with a caveat. Desaturated Katia still looks like she only in partial light. Perhaps see how she looks with a little desaturation, but significantly less darkening? The darkening doesn't make her look any more realistically lit to me, just darker.

Then again, this all depends on how much colour variety the environment is going to have. If areas are going to be pretty monotone, the original style might be better. If there's going to be a good amount of variety though, the more subdued, detailed look could work better.

Style wise, would I be right in saying that this is kind of like comparing the bright, cartoony style of the excelsior update to the more subdued, painterly style of the infiltrate update?

DOOMGUY11: DOOM SPRITES?!

Toxic: @AMKitsune: That comparison was exactly what I had in mind. And yes, I do plan to add a lot of variety and interaction.

Following your advice, realistic V2 has been created and will be used rather than the "realistic" shown above.

Sashimi: Awesome! So does this mean the big game project is back on track?

DOOMGUY11: If I could do a prequel mod for doom.. imagine katia going 90mph(feline agiltiy) and gunning down everything,clawing,and burning sick af!

Toxic: @Sashimi: It's back and it's gonna be better. I spent some time learning new things and have since assembled a small group to help me make this game.

Sashimi: @Toxic: That is supurb news!

DOOMGUY11: *e1m1*

Toryu-Mau: ... Looks like a nice compromise has been made between dark and gritty with pop and pretty. >):^]
The former was a bit too dark to be comfortable on the eye, so this is good to see. c^:(<

DOOMGUY11: I swear these are the coolest
