I've seen various artists have their own art threads here, so I decided to create one, hoping I'd eventually become a worthy artist. :)

At the moment, I've drawn one particular pic, but I feel something is missing. Probably, it's due to a relatively empty background. Or something else?

Just in case, here Boggy C is trying hard to squeeze that darn "homing" pigeon into the launcher.

While it is well drawn, I do have to question what his left hand is grabbing...

Good! But what is the thing that the worm is grabbing with the left hand? :-/

Poor homing pigeon. Not only is his soul purpose to seek out a specific target and explode, but to add insult to injury, he's having his wang pulled off beforehand.

Nice job though. Especially on the launcher,

Oh Gee! Well, it's pigeon's legs. :D
Although otherwise he could be... ahem... arming it, just like any other projectile.:)

How do I make it clear that those are legs?

You can't really it's just a rather unfortunate pose :p

Well, how about this?

http://i1023.photobucket.com/albums/af358/Mr_Cb14/pigeon1.png

Now he's looking like a ballet dancer, though. :-/

Well, how about this?

Its fine....

Good Arts men!!!

Boggy C? lol

I don't know what's up with these guys, it was quite clear he's grabbing the pigeons feet... I wonder why everybody's so off with the worms' colours. I mean, everybody's using human skin colours instead of this high orange-red :-/

Boggy C? lol
Yeah, I thought that Boggy B is way too frequently drawn :)

I don't know what's up with these guys, it was quite clear he's grabbing the pigeons feet...
Actually, with all those details I paid attention to, it was strange not to draw pigeon's legs properly. But nevertheless, I couldn't even think of it being anything other than legs. Until they pointed this out, of course.;)

everybody's using human skin colours instead of this high orange-red :-/
You mean "this" as on your avatar?
If so - good point, but I think even Team17 sometimes use color resembling that of human skin. E.g., Worms 3D cover.

Yeah, I thought that Boggy B is way too frequently drawn :)

Team17 used the name "Boggy C" as a joke in a W4M vid which showed how the story of Worms 4 was produced (as if it was a movie). Boggy C was a stuntman stepped in for Boggy B in an action scene.

"this" as for the usual worm's colour.

I just checked the colours for the W3D colour and they are almost the same as T17 uses for paper drawings.
http://i22.tinypic.com/ak95q0.gif
Look at all that pink for some of the shadings, that's certainly not what a human's skin looks like ;)

Boggy C was a stuntman stepped in for Boggy B in an action scene.
Wow. Uh. Guess I wasn't the first one to use that character, then. Gotta consider Boggy D. :) Or even Doggy D.

Look at all that pink for some of the shadings, that's certainly not what a human's skin looks like ;)
Depends on a human's skin. :D
The highlights there are still "yellowish", and it is sunny weather on my pic. But whatever.

All right. But still the hand drawn stuff as well as the W3D sketches got the same colours as I use like in my avatar :)

Ok, two things I'd like to point out:
1. Everyone knew it was feet, they're just being silly.
2. Official art means sh*t in here. This is a fan art forum, meaning it doesn't matter how you draw your worms, that's your perspective as a fan, your style.
Actually, most of the older people in here dislike using official art, since it's somewhat considered unoriginal.

Okay, why not starting drawing blue worms then?

Joking, but I was talking about colours and not the layout considering official art :p

Okay, why not starting drawing blue worms then?

Joking, but I was talking about colours and not the layout considering official art :p

There are some blue worms, black worms, white worms
Even the official games had blue worms

There are some blue worms, black worms, white worms
Even the official games had blue worms

Hm, I've never seen blue worms here :p
Official art NEVER included blue worms
In-game worms could be set to blue but it was the player's decision. In the profile menu you could disable using different colours for the worms at all. I don't know what the colour thing was good for actually, but it made me and my friends stop having arguments about what team colour each of us wanted :D
- "I'm red"
- "Hey I wanted to be red!"

Yes, Worms 4 had Blue Worms
They're "aliens worms", but still, that shows that there's no such thing as colour limitation
Plus, it changes on every edition. Worms 1 art had nothing to do with these new art. There's no logic in geting attached to so called "official style"

Hey, I just wanted to say that there's nothing technically wrong in drawing a worm which is human-style-colored, since, like Pyramid said, "official style" changes from game to game.
Humans just tend to make worms more "humane". Including skin color. :)

So, back on topic, isn't there anything to improve anymore? Other art threads seem to be literally flooded with suggestions. Of course, if one pic is just not enough, there will be more coming.

Keep'em coming
The shadow on behind the head should follow the tail form, instead, it's straight

To be back on topic, too: There's a shading missing on the worm's head, the one from the pigeon. In addition, to take your post about your details into consideration, you could add a few more details to the worm's hands... but I assume that counts to your "own style"-comments, so nvm.

http://i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt52/Thurbo1/Cb14spic.jpg?t=1270991832

Btw, I took the liberty of downloading your pic and changing the colours... Well I think with the real worms' colours it looks thousand times better, but still just my opinion.

http://i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt52/Thurbo1/Cb14spic.jpg?t=1270947137

but it gets boring :P

Btw, I took the liberty of downloading your pic and changing the colours... Well I think with the real worms' colours it looks thousand times better, but still just my opinion.hey, how about you shut the hell up?

colors are used dependant entirely upon the scenery and the overall mood of the piece of work being created by the artist. skin tones between humans vary widely from cool or warm variations of the same peach tone as well as dark to light. worms are based upon a human design and color scheme and so all of the various colors that could be found on a human can also work on a worm.

in fact, your version works less effectively because the warmer skin tone makes that worm stand out from the background much more than the muted tones that were used in the original. your version's worm is more the center focus while the original allows the eye to travel around more and view the entire image. heck, I find your version even makes the worm start to almost float off the image because of how much it sticks out from the other muted colors that were used in the background. now, had you used a darker version of a similarly-muted color then it might have remained effective artistically, but as it is, your version isn't as good.

now. in critique of the original, I think the worms color IS a little pale perhaps a slightly (emphasis on slightly) darker/redder version of the same color, but the choice is entirely yours as the original is quite well done. your worm simply looks like he hasn't seen the sun in a few years :p

and further: nice perspective work. you're off to a very nice start. if you want suggestions, I suggest keeping all your line-work a similar style. the worm's lines are very thick and clunky while the lines on the bazooka's details are all very fine. varying a line's width is an effective strategy if you know how to do it, but the overall width should remain similar.

That was just my opinion.

It looks like even I haven't been able to evade MtlAngelus's grasp. lol.

Regarding Thurbo's mod: now he sorta looks like he has a sunburn. :)

Pigeon-to-head shade: looks like it (although it's there, but apparently I didn't take surface curve into account)

Regarding lines, there's actually just 1 px difference in brush widths (3 for worm, 2 for launcher - regarding contours; launcher's details are 1 px), but wow, what a difference. Amazing.
So, the main purpose of varying brush widths is to emphasize distance to the POV?

Also, I had an opportunity to see my pic on a different display, and it looked somewhat more "yellowish". Along with everything else. Could such thing cause a color-conflict?

P.S. In the next pic I'll try to do more "tech" things. Maybe an arsenal.

Also, the hat looks kinda two-dimensional :-/

Really? I just can't see this :D Real Life Worms got that colours as well as T17 artists always used them, so...

Maybe I should really shut up, seems I've no idea how to let the colours having an "harmonized" effect :-/ (That's what you mean isn't it?)

No need to shut up. Maybe you don't have any idea about color management, but I don't either, honestly.
Oops. Looks like I've just noticeably dropped down in artists rating. :)

So, the main purpose of varying brush widths is to emphasize distance to the POV?distance and weight. thicker lines imply heavier weight, so mostly they should be used on the bottoms of things. they also imply closeness to the point of view. the thicker the lines the closer and object appears to the viewer, the thinner the lines, the farther away. that's why I said it should be uniform. sure, there may only be one pixel difference, but it's a large difference on this scale.

Also, the hat looks kinda two-dimensional :-/


Magical. Hat.

Do I need to explain with apples and oranges here?

MtlAngelus is hereby asked to leave this thread and not return until his magical hat becomes compliant with Wormiverse's laws of physics.

Speaking of lines thickness: what if I want to draw a detail, but it becomes indistinguishable due to thick lines? A rough example would be pigeon's feathers.

P.S.
cb's coloring
It seems impossible for me to understand why absolutely everyone is truncating my nick to two letters. "14" is not really a number. :-/

colors are situational. no one color is perfect for every situation. even the green of a tree changes depending on the time of day and what it's placed next to. just because the team17 coloration works well in most situations doesn't mean it has to be forced on ALL situations. cb's coloring works pretty well here while the t17 colors don't work quite so well (too much saturation), but that's only with this image. it's a style thing.

I know that, for trees' leafes I'd use a dark blue-green or something like that. I think it has to do with the colour of the light encountering on the object.

However I could prove a real worm's colour at day (as in Cb14's pic) is almost the same as I used...

Speaking of lines thickness: what if I want to draw a detail, but it becomes indistinguishable due to thick lines? A rough example would be pigeon's feathers.

If your extra-thick lines are too thick then you should reconsider the thickness of the regular-thick lines. Lines should never be too thick that it interferes with detail, unless you are doing something extremely cartoony, in which case keep objects cartoonishly large and not too detailed. Also only make the outlines thick. In the example of the feather you can draw the whole thing with regular thick lines and then draw extra thickness around it so the line doesn't alter the inner details. If that makes sense to you.

Well, they are also glossy and segmented. And don't have any eyes and eyebrows. I totally suck at drawing worms. :)

I know that, for trees' leafes I'd use a dark blue-green or something like that. I think it has to do with the colour of the light encountering on the object.these (http://www.hisglory.com/photos2/Green%20Leaves.jpg) leaves run the gamut from warm yellow-green to cool blue-green. these (http://mayang.com/textures/Plants/images/Trees/trees_5081339.JPG) are all cool blue-greens. and these (http://depts.washington.edu/czone/images/trees_buselm.jpg) are all warm yellow-green.

now, explain to me again how you justify using only dark blue-green to represent leaves?

However I could prove a real worm's colour at day (as in Cb14's pic) is almost the same as I used...
http://www.daswissensblog.de/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/regenwurm.jpg (Ew, worm's sperm :p)here (http://treephort.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/earthworm1.jpg). that one's brown. this one (http://www.theallotmentgarden.co.uk/gardening-blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/earth-worm-300x238.jpg) is much more red than even your team17 example. and this one (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3635/3311356135_b7edf245fa.jpg) is very much grey.

and yet ALL of those worms are exactly the same colors. the only reason your example appears more red like the example from team17 is because of the surrounding colors. the green pops out the reddish tones much more than anything else, proving your point more effectively. however, if you actually look rather than talk, you can see on the right of even YOUR image are exactly the colors that cb14 used in his original drawing. and if you want, I'll recreate a drawing using only those colors on the right of that bottom worms' tail to show you exactly why and how those colors are equally effective for the skin tone of a worm, and I'll even do so in an environment where your generic team17 coloration WON'T work.

and yet ALL of those worms are exactly the same colors. the only reason your example appears more red like the example from team17 is because of the surrounding colors.

Yes, so why is my version wrong? no surrounding colours in Cb14's pic make Boggy C having a skin that seems to be human skin coloured... Or am I wrong again because I just don't know exactly how that stuff works?

now, explain to me again how you justify using only dark blue-green to represent leaves?

Whoops, I forgot to say dark blue-green colours would be a good option for leaves AT NIGHT. Of course you can vary it, too :)


Oh and you don't have to draw a pic where the colours won't work because I think I already know the perfect example: The Open Warfare 2 cover :p

I am deeply offend by this thread. You can not be drawing bird with a big tiddle in this forum there are two reason why:

1. bird have internal testincles and no tiddle
2. why is worm tugging on that bird tiddle?? It should remain internal on a bird.

Oh Gingerneck, you so crazy

and SHUT UP GODDAMN.

Yes, so why is my version wrong? no surrounding colours in Cb14's pic make Boggy C having a skin that seems to be human skin coloured... the blue of the sky is setting off the light orange tone on the worm. the color coordination doesn't seem to be intentional, and so it's not that strong a relationship, but that's why that color works. the t17 coloration is too red to work off the sky and not quite the same vibrance of the green.

my point with all of this is only that your touting the t17 colors as perfect is useless. they aren't the perfect answer, as NO color is a perfect answer in all situations. colors change with their surroundings. you keep saying things to try to sound like you know what you're talking about, but you don't here. just accept that your suggestion wasn't a valid one here and let's end the discussion. it's not that big a deal, no one knows everything, god knows.

lol, it's just that I got the expression the worm's colour is too bright. I could try colouring it with a high red-orange :D but alright I'll shut up now.

make new arts!

Working on it, don't worry.

OK, here we go. This one is pretty much infinished, as I need some suggestions for the scenery, but that's why there's "W.I.P." line in the theme. Anyone?

Oh, and here Boggy D bought himself a jetpack, but forgot to purchase the steering thrusters option.

Nice work on the gestures; Boggy D doesn't just look as if he was of panic though... his left hand seems to cover the important part of the mouth :D
Or maybe his mouth corners are too much up

Boggy D doesn't just look as if he was of panic though...
Uh. Well, considering how much he has flown by this moment, he might actually start to like it. :)

I like the angle
That thing on the back is a worm without head, right? maybe putting him a lil' more down. A somewhat heavy shading on the opposite side of the flames, for effect

That is actually an intact worm lying on his side. He's just knocked out.
And I'm not doing any reasonable shading right now, because I still have to decide on the scenery and, therefore, sun position. Then there will be shadows and lighting.

I've decided to add some red to worms' colors.

nice but

-The Jetpack worm tail looks a bit strange
-The other worms are too big
:p

I don't think the tail is wierd, neither that the worms are too big, since he doesn't seem to be flying up, but forward, and close to them

I don't think the tail is wierd, neither that the worms are too big, since he doesn't seem to be flying up, but forward, and close to them

you broke my heart :(

-The Jetpack worm tail looks a bit strange



Tail is fine, because you need to consider his flight path, and also the air resistance would pull his tail in that way.

Again the flight paths seems to be horizontal, with minimal lift. This is the case because he has already hit another worm. Although in my opinion, the worm on the ground should be on the other side of the smoke trail(or flipped), because he is shown to be hit on the back of the head, and it is unlikely that he would fall forwards after being hit in the back of the head by the jetpack worm.

On downed worm's position - it's hard to tell, really, because you would need to know the worm's position before the impact, Boggy D's speed and spin and some other things. He could even roll a bit after being hit. There's not much to figure these out from.

the middle worm that's standing on the ground is far too small or far too low. the perspective is all sort of odd, so I'm not sure if I'm even latching on to the right cause of it, but I'm strongly inclined to believe that the middle worm should overlap the far worm that's lying unconscious.

nicely drawn, though. I just don't understand the perspective.

Oh come on! There's no setting at all, you can't say for sure. I thought the farthest worm would be on the high ground. Maybe the smoke trail doesn't indicate that very clearly.
I still need the scenery suggestions. Really. This is still unfinished.

Oh come on! There's no setting at all, you can't say for sure. I thought the farthest worm would be on the high ground. Maybe the smoke trail doesn't indicate that very clearly.
I still need the scenery suggestions. Really. This is still unfinished.lol. when you set your first line you set a requirement for the scale of every subsequent line. similarly, when you draw a single figure, you set up the perspective of every subsequent figure.

it's the way the worms are standing. they are angled on a specific plane. I guess the worm in the background could be on a hill or something reasonably, but something in there still just looks a bit off. I can't put a finger on what.

could be the smoke trail? the worm seems to be flying in horizontally, but the trail would have to be coming from up in the air, judging on perspective.

I dunno, I'm grasping at straws at this point, I just know SOMETHING is funny.

It's a W.I.P., there has to be something funny. :)

Well I just can't figure out where the perspective is off. But I don't even see "something funny" :p

I think I had to look a very long time at the pic to see what Aku means

I don't know if this applies here, but there's like a little rule that says that the best way to make various people in different distances
Using a line to make the eyes of all of them in the same height, only making one smaller or bigger than the other

http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/8666/wormssample1.png

Since the plane here could not be linear, then I don't think that's the case. Just thought it was worth mentioning

Lol I didn't know that rule... but you can't use it often I bet since a lot of environments are not as flat as in your pic. Plus, persons' sizes differ from each other (for worms it works though :))

Lol I didn't know that rule... but you can't use it often I bet since a lot of environments are not as flat as in your pic. Plus, persons' sizes differ from each other (for worms it works though :))worms are proportioned exactly the same as people. if most worms appear the same height and build its due to uncreativity on the part of the artist. for the game it HAS to be standardized, but if the fan art is that's just a shame.

and 90% of all environments are flat or change height slowly. that rule works for everything unless you're making a random mesa, as are decently common among worms landscapes.

unless you're making a random mesa
Good Heavens! Finally, a scenery suggestion! Thank you, oh great Akuryou! :)

worms are proportioned exactly the same as people. if most worms appear the same height and build its due to uncreativity on the part of the artist. for the game it HAS to be standardized, but if the fan art is that's just a shame.

Oh I actually draw them always the same sizes unless it should be pointed out (Like a very small worm representing weakness or something like that)

However I've neither ever seen you differing your worms' sizes (in one pic of course) nor I can remember anyone else did.

Did you look at his paint competition post?

edit: You're talking about actual physical size differences aren't you? Threw me off, since the discussion was all about perspective. Aku meant it poor choice by the artist, if every worm is the same size, do to perspective, as if every character were standing next to each other, in every scene.

(Pictures one and two are slightly invalid because the size differences are caused by the perspective)of COURSE they're different sizes based on perspective. that's what started this conversation.

I also tossed in the character sheet of those groups of sigworms to further expand my argument on THIS portion of the discusion. each worm present is a different size, build and body type. some are angular, some smooth, some stocky, etc.

no matter what you were looking for I provided a link, now quit your pedantic complaining.

edit: and hell. even the first two. the white-robed worm has a heavier brow and more-defined upper lip than the purple-clad worm in the other image. his head is also larger and he's obviously shorter.

I stand partially corrected.

lol, and actually I started talking about worms' physical sizes when Pyramid posted his pic with the red horizone line :)

lol, and actually I started talking about worms' physical sizes when Pyramid posted his pic with the red horizone line :)

It makes no difference the size, it'll still work on a flat plane, simply cause the ground is the same for everyone involved in the pic

I see a difference. It differs due to the perspective but not due to varying physical sizes.

Here's another one. This time I decided to put a little more effort into the background.

http://i1023.photobucket.com/albums/af358/Mr_Cb14/banana_shading.png

Very Nice, is that an airport?

Of course not, it's a sea port. See that water over there?

Very Nice, is that an airport?On the sea?

Looks more like a docking area.

I should point out that the ground behind the worm is unleveled on both his sides
Is very high on the left side and low on right, even though it's plain where he is

I should point out that the ground behind the worm is unleveled on both his sides
Is very high on the left side and low on right, even though it's plain where he isit's at an angle, behind him is the edge of the pier. even then the angles wouldn't actually meet up, but it's not so far off.

I think the angle of the right crate to be a bit strange... well I guess it's possible but still... Anyway, I like the thousands of clouds in the background :)

Btw, what everybody makes thinking it's an airport probably is the worm waving the red flags and looking up (do they have that on docks, too? However I didn't ever see that :p)
