The Forkheads Cast!
Straight to the shit: I want character reference sheets for everyone. "I want something I can hand to any artist on Earth and have them draw the same, recognizable thing." Keep the secret of character design in mind: "The secret of designing cartoon characters—and I’m giving away this secret now to all of you out there—is: you make a character that you can tell who it is in silhouette." I have an idea that may prove useful. Stay tuned for more. Tools that may help/hurt: http://www.kongregate.com/games/xdanond ... er-maker-2 For inspiration, I like hitting random. http://foervraengd.deviantart.com/art/U ... -220251993 Mostly helpful for making an adult male. http://foervraengd.deviantart.com/art/P ... -244424893 For people that want to make anything other than an adult male.

Re: The Forkheads Cast!
there ya' go it's about as good as a character based on me could get without finding/paying someone to draw me and there's not many artists where i live (not good ones anyways around here people only like that "modern art" shit)

Re: The Forkheads Cast!
So what are we doing? I got confused, does fluffy want us to design a random character or an instantly artistically recognizable/reproducible anime copy of ourselves?
Also I have no paper or pencil or freeworld time, I am observed by shoulder watchers nigh every hour if not every minute, and have no hiding paces for the drawing, and I'd have to scan the work publicly.
tell me how I can proceed. Teh GIMP?

Re: The Forkheads Cast!
As we went over the other night, I have the following to present. - Spoiler: show
However, I thought I could do more. So I went ahead and caught up with my one guilty pleasure of a site to give some better ideas on colour. In terms of proportions I already did the modifications to the body in the above to make myself slightly emaciated (as I am in real life), but feel free to mess around with the height as you see fit. That said, I'm not super picky. If some of the minor details are missing, I probably won't care. However, consider the below images as extra notes for creating my character. The clothing depicted is the following. FH Trucker HatNew Albert Johnson JacketVar sex= true; T-ShirtAs for the pants and shoes, just keep the pants as either dark grey or black slacks and the shoes as brown w/black. Although I figure such will rarely be seen, it would be nice to have such info. - Spoiler: show
So one thing to keep in mind is that I always like to have my hair brushed/combed nicely. I'd stay more true to the hair portrayed in the first image, but this one was just used due to a lack of actual parts that I wanted. Also, the jacket should fit down to my wrists. One thing to note that I like about the simulator is that my character should have "sharp" eyes to a degree, but not so sharp that it's a squint. These eyes are pretty accurate in depicting what I mean. - Spoiler: show
This is the same image as the second but with the hat. Since it's the FH Trucker Hat, you'd want a mesh instead for the back... And for it to be an actual trucker hat. Again, it's for the sake of showing colour scheme. - Spoiler: show
This is another one with hair a tad too long to match my own. However, again, mainly consider the very first image. The main thing I wanted to point out in this one is the eyes. If anyone knows me, they'll know that I have bags/dark circles under my eyes. I think this one does a good job in creating such. Consider incorporating it. If I get free time I'll continue to redevelop my skill and hopefully get some actual stuff out.

Re: The Forkheads Cast!
To fluffy. I honestly haven't figured that out for myself yet. Quote: I don't care if you smear your own feces on the side of a building and take a picture, as long as it's how you want to be depicted in upcoming shit I do. (What I did there.) not sure how I want the avatar of me to be represented. I've got multiple characters based around me that I have never drawn out. this is a huge question of me. I'll figure out something though. I'll use what you supplied as the goal and draw a basis in teh Gimp, or amybe I'll just make a 8-bit or 16-bit sprite like in teh good old days. yeah, that's much more agreeable and easier. Can it be animated?

Can it be animated? I'm glad to see serious effort coming from so many Forkheads. Animate away, use Steam/Hammer/Blender/Maya/3DS Max, whatever you have available to you. I intend to mangle it, anyway. The basics you should focus on are things like recognizable aspects similar to if you would make a gijinka of yourself, what would it be? For example, mine would need wild blue spiky hair and my signature eyebrow.
