Zea mays Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) Months ago, I had made a "stick figure" avvie of Kaladin a la Rich Burlew's Order of the Stick (based on the cover for WoR, 'course) Since I had a Kal figure I had to make this scene too (minor woR spoiler, I guess) Anyways, I looked at the little guy again, and though to myself, how hard could it be to transform it into a more realistically proportioned and detailed version?The problem with thoughts like that is that they lead to ridiculous time consuming projects. (please click to embiggen) I'm too lazy to bother with a real background. Maybe sometime in the future.

Kobold King he/him Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 These are all incredibly awesome. As an Order of the Stick fan, I'm particularly enamored of stick figure Kaladin. Really awesome work! Take my upvotes, don't spend them all in one place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talanic he/him Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Seeing that made me realize. If Syl ever had access to the modern world, Kaladin would never STOP being told that Obi-wan Kenobi was her only hope. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Odium will try to recruit Kal to the dark side by offering him cookies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king of nowhere Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 More realistic? How'd you say that? How can it be realistic with that odd bumpy thing between his eyes? (in case that's too obscure, go read the third page from here and then this strip) And hey, I just had a vision where the guy who paid 5000 dollars in the kickstarter to put his character into a cameo in oots is actually brandon sanderson, who will insert into oots one of his characters. As a guy who absolutely don't like that kind of fanfiction, I recoiled in horror... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mailliw73 he/him Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Woah. You just thought, I can make a stick figure into an awesome drawing, no biggy. That's crazy for me to even imagine trying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaellok he/him Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 What? Like it's hard? I still can't quite get my style right. I...I can't even make stick figures right. My friend's 6-year old daughter makes fun of my drawings because they are so bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend's 6-year old daughter makes fun of my drawings because they are so bad. Do you ever feel the need to re-draw and re work you stick figure again and again and again and again and yet again in a incessant, insane, time-eating obsession to get them just right? (6 year-old and fully grown critics be damned) Or is that just me? Edited November 1, 2014 by Zea mays 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaellok he/him Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 No, I usually only re-draw and re-work my stick figure again. So, I'll draw it, realize it's awful, and improve it just a little bit, in order to make it recognizably a stick person, rather than a blob of squigglies. And, yes, critics be damned and all that. I just find it amusing that I'm so bad that even children recognize how bad it is. It doesn't really hurt my feelings any...potentially because I just have the one (annoyed, if any were curious. Regardless, your pictures remain amazing, and I remain astounded at people gifted in areas that I absolutely am not and treat it as no big deal. I mean, I'm also pretty amazed at people who can eat 50 hotdogs in ten minutes, so that might not mean much ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
