Art of DarkWaltz *10-17-12* New Robot Master

[Blackhook]

Here we go, introducing the HRT Series of repliroids.

The blue haired one is 'Mente' meaning 'mind', created before the Elf Wars began. Within her hard drive is the Old World's Data Bank. Something that is lost by Neo Arcadia's time supposedly.

The green haired one is 'Lichaam' meaning 'body', created as a protection system for Mente as her firewalls are all she has to really protect herself. As such the two are pretty much inseparable.

The one in the middle? We all know her well as 'Shinobu' the name Phantom had given her. But before her reset, she went under a different name, 'Anima' meaning 'soul'. Created as a back-up server for both Menta and Lichaam. She is both of her elder sisters combined into one form. While Shinobu follows under the basics of programming before developing her own carefree personality, the knowledge of her past is kept hidden between mass amounts of firewalls and passcodes until certain situations trigger it to come forth. What happened to her and her sisters will remain unknown for now, until Schilt gets a hold of her. 

Hello ladies Interesting backstory

What happened to her and her sisters will remain unknown for now, until Schilt gets a hold of her

That lucky british batard

HRT... doesn't HRT mean something else?

[Black Mage J]

Dohohohoho.
Wonderful as always, DW.

[Protoman Blues]

I always have loved your coloring.

[Krystal]

D'aww, they're pretty ='D I like blue hair I love their names and the slight variations of their costumes
And also the way you coloured in their shoes

[borockman]

This is so great! Really really like Lichaam pose.

[Dr. Wily II]

Great to see them now.
And very interesting backstory indeed.

[DarkWaltz]

Wow... last update was February. ^^; My apologies, DBZ was taking my interest although I'm starting to get back in Mega Man again. (Fandom hops, I do them at random...)

Spoiler tag:

Jam Badel: A DBZ character in my storyline.





An attempt at an .EXE Shinobu. Looks too much like her normal self so I have to redo it.



And this is Delphinidae.exe, aka Miana. Miana was an Ecco the Dolphin character but I liked her so much she'll be in the Mega Man series, possibly the Classic series, since I'm thinking of a few things already, possibly involving the Stardroids. X3

Delphinidae is named from the Dolphin constellation, while 'Miana' came about after her Operator's daughter, as well as dolphin theme. As you can see, her eyes are often closed, using echolocation and sound to tell where objects are. Her powers derive from music/sound.

Eh... still working on her and all.

Nice to see you posting your art here, DW!

[Quickman]

The coloring on the top image is really interesting.  What mediums did you use for it?

[DarkWaltz]

Thanks PB. ^^ I think I've been away for too long, now I gotta get back into the swing of things.

Thanks. I used Prismacolor markers on it.

[DarkWaltz]

Originally I was going to save it until I was done but... I need some advice and I know it still needs a ton of work.

And yes... more canonxoc *hides*

I'm still pleased with how it's turning out but I never worked in pixels before, and I know a lot o you guys do spriting and such and have a much better idea.

I did a lot of changing to the original base. The person who made it saved it as a jpeg and the pixels became screwy. The top character had white/grey skin tone and the bottom was caucasion, also I do believe both were males. The top I had to change the skin tone closer to Elecman.exe skin tone, the bottom I had to change the skin tone and add in the... feminine touches. Delphinadae (Her Classic counterpart is called Miana. I know... confusing )has her outfit and such but I saw the blues and felt I needed some more advice. And anything else that needs fixing.

And all this before I even get to Elec himself. *headdesk*

[Acid]

Pixelated softcore!

[DarkWaltz]

I guess since I haven't given Elecman his outfit yet so... 

[Blackhook]

..I never wanted to see Baby (DBGT) softcore porn.

[KoiDrake]

There doesn't seem to be a defined lightsource yet and the lighter parts are really bright right now. I would remove most of the lighter tones to make the neutral color the dominant one. And maybe it's just me, but I think it'll look better with lesser colors.
And the dark tones should be purple, purple always look good

Just my two cents

O_O I bet that made a disturbing image...

When I started I merely wanted to get the colors down for the skin tones. The base creator had used five hues that I could tell. (She uploaded it as a jpeg.) I wasn't thinking light source at the time, and more then likely I'm going to redo all the colors instead of following what the creator had to the skin.

So instead of the five, possibly three, and just use a dithering technique to tie the three tone in?

But as you said, purple to black would look better then grey to black. Even dark blue to black looks nicer.

Thanks.

Jam Badel: A DBZ character in my storyline.

Hmm, that sultry eyes, that pose, that sexy! lovely.

Ugh, that base does looks painful to edit.

and Elecman, looks like someone from DBZ now.

[DarkWaltz]

Some more art. Yay.



Concept art for Copy X in my comic. The one in the middle would be his formal wear when he chooses not to wear the helmet. Unlike the real X, his hair is more trimmed and less fluffy. Not pictured would be his Armed Phenomenon, which would get its own page.



It's been a little while since I drew these two. So you get Chibi Phantom and Shinobu. 

And something I forgot. WIP of yet another Leviathan/Shinobu picture. (Referenced) 
[spoiler][/spoiler]

[Blackhook]

Hmm while the coat does look nice..it doen't fit Copy X too much...it might be just me though.
..WHy does Phantom look badass and still able to slauther you with little effort, even in Chibi form?
Third pic is...really...well drwn and...screw this, can't hide that I'm a man *wipes nose*

[DarkWaltz]

I had the hardest time coming up with that coat design and I think it shows. Although so far he only wears that outfit once in the comic, otherwise he's in his normal armor. 

Phantom is awesome like that? It's especially impressive with Shinobu there being adorable.

*pets* I need to ink and color it. Eventually.

[Protoman Blues]

So happy you're back DW.

[Krystal]

I think Copy X's 'Formal' coats needs to look less Asian, cover more up front (It's not very manly to show your bellybutton) and have more badass things.

Like belts and buttons!

It's good to be back. ^^

I went through a few designs before it but the front just didn't look right with the way I drew it. (Or it looked too feminine.) Originally I wanted it to look more like a military jacket but the design wasn't working. It's one of those, I can see it in my head but I can't get it to look right on paper. If that made any sense. =/ But I may try some more sketches of it.

... *swipes Chibi Shinobu away*

Again Wily? You already swiped her on dA!
