i wonder what you guys would think of this few "artist's impression" of probable screenshots in a Realtime/RPG Worms Game.

This is actually hand-drawn by a 12-year-old using A4 paper and a mechanical pencil. Maybe the drawings need a heavy lot of improvements on the worm detail esp. the random-shaped eyes, the mouth and the legs! (heck, not to mention the body shapes) :o or maybe this shouldn't go here.

That's quite good for your first released Worms art. The explosions are good. The worm shapes are good, although you may wish to work on the tail from some angles, especially where it "joins" the rest of the body.

Although your own hands are a good reference for drawing hands, you'll find they look much nicer if they have only 3 fingers + a thumb instead of our 4 fingers + thumb. Then you can thicken them to make the look more cartoony.

And big chunky eyebrow "blobs" wouldn't go amiss either.

Keep it up, and welcome to Fan Art. You don't have to be mad, but ..... actually scratch that, you do.

The explosions are very nice. But the hands really do need lots of improvement, look at your own hand and watch at other artists work as: Splapp or Slick or those other guys. :P

Just as Melon said. Worms usualy have 4 fingered (3 fingers and a thumb) hands instead of the traditional 5 fingered (4 fingers and thumb) hand like a human's hand.

If you have trouble drawing a hand in a certain movement or angle: try looking at your own hand (protending your little finger isn't there)

PS: YAY! It apears i am not the youngest forum member any more! (I am 13 now)
Welcome aboard, Mr. Yahui! What nationality are you by the way?

I agree with everyone -- good work, great explosions (seriosuly, I can never draw the bloody things), hands need work but will probably come. Oft's advice is good. The right hand worm shape in the last frame looks wrong, too, but again, that's an awkward angle. (The "head" bit should stay vertical.) There's real potential there. I know adults who'd be damn proud of that.

Very nice.

Though I am seriously wondering how the heck the worm in the first panel is holding that gun.
Telekinesis, perhaps?

I know it looks like he has his hands by his sides and the gun out in front of him but I'm pretty sure that's

(a) a badly drawn hand holding the gun, or,
(b) a cutting satire of Half Life and Deus Ex style games where held items just hover in front of the player.

You choose.

Nice stuff. The hands are a bit weird, but it's not a bad start.

Ahh i dont know but i think it goes under option (b).

and Oft99, i dont seem to understand just WHY everyone either pronounces or spells my name as "Yahui", not "Yau Hui" (esp in school) and that's my nick name (i cant figure out any other usernames)

i'm fr Malaysia - malaysian chinese that is.

btw nice to meet you guys. ^.^

just for u guy's info, i used to (and still am) draw(ing) comic books (i luv to draw car races involving fictional stuff like nuclear bombs or heat-seeking missiles affixed to the cars like James Bond's car in the movie "Goldfinger")

thx for ur advices, i'll improve on those stuff and try to post a new drawing.. real thx for d head-start boost support...

p.s why am i actually mumbling about myself, me, me and me here?! :p
