Player Portraits
I work as an artist but not an illustrator so not sure whether I'm the right person to do the player portraits on fumbbl. But if people like I would be happy to help the community by assisting in making the 2-d art work for the new client.
Anyhow I present these sketches of the Human team as an example of my work. I don't know enough about photoshop to colour them to a professional standard. If anyone fancies a go I'd be happy to email them the original scans to work with.

Nice, I love it!
Posted by Calthor on 2010-04-20 22:07:53
I say yes.

If you could create a complete set and get some help with colouring then these would be freeking awesome mate, definitely something worth looking into

Damn these are good.....
Posted by spubbbba on 2010-04-20 22:23:13
Those are awesome, i'd love a set of like this rather than being stuck with the cartoony style we've had so far.
Posted by WhatBall on 2010-04-20 22:44:24
Awesome!
I don't even think they need colour, but I might be able to help colour them if needed.

Very, very nice!
Posted by Nachtogen on 2010-04-20 22:50:11
Really nice, I like them in black and white though...
Posted by Gran on 2010-04-20 23:07:33
These are really nice in black and white. After resize however, there is a risk that they may appear a bit smudgy, and some of that great detail might be lost. I don't know if colour would help with that though.
That aside: Awesome!

Awesome ! I think it needed to be said once more :)

MORE!

21st to rate it a 6. The thrower is a 7 by the way
Posted by Gran on 2010-04-20 23:24:16
I just tried resizing the blitzer into 95x147 and it still looks really good. Some areas get quite small though, such as face and hands, and with the right colours I think this might be helped a bit.

I think they look gorgeous, perhaps even better, if someone coloured them in a professional way.
Asuming the picture format is still 169x114 in the new client:

hellah nice mate.
Posted by Shades_SteelFist on 2010-04-20 23:59:17
As much as I love the pic, I think the throwers hands need a bit of work
Posted by Nighteye on 2010-04-21 00:50:50
Holy handbag Batman, look at those illustrations.
Posted by Hogshine on 2010-04-21 01:21:40
So, I guess I was the 34th person to rate this a 6. That should tell you all you need to about how awesome the pictures are :D
The thrower is indeed brilliant, and if they could be resized/coloured it would be great to see them in the FFB client. :)

Maybe you should mail these to GW with a application :)
Very nice work.
Very nice work.

Coloring them in Shop isn't too hard. Just set the layer with the drawing to multiply and colour it on a second layer beneath. Or you can set the brush to multiply and just paint over it. Great illustrations btw :)
Posted by Jester_Spirit on 2010-04-21 08:33:48
Nah, ...k I make an example and post it here later.
Posted by Garion on 2010-04-21 09:00:05
Wow they are just amazing. Now if you could just do the same for every player in the game and let us use them for LRB5/6 ;) lol. Seriously though amazing pics, I don't even think they need colour, they are perfect as they are
Posted by neophyte on 2010-04-21 12:19:24
nice work !
Posted by maysrill on 2010-04-21 13:29:52
These remind me of that Aha video from the mid '80's, where the girls gets pulled into the comic book. That is to say, they look old-school professional. Great work!

These look great. I don't get who didn't vote this a six as it is someone offering to give up their time, for free, to help the site, with a very high standard of work. It just goes to show that someone giving away free cash still wouldn't manage a rated 6 blog.
