Why can't we just have a dark dwarf eating fried chicken? Why does it need to be sexual?

[Deon]

Do you want me to make her skin darker?

And seriosly, why not? Why can't a woman be sexual? It's art (more or less), and I don't think it's bad unless it's pornographic. If you have anything against it, please say so. I just thought that we are mostly grown-up people here (at least we should be, the game is too vigilant for kids) and those who commented a lot on my attempts to draw women were just kidding.

Goddamn, how many times have I started a new page on this forum? It seems like I do it at least once a day.

Congratulations . You win the "page starter" achievement .

everyone knows plump helmets are supposed to be purple.
But really, I could be more mature, I guess, but I think it needed saying. Your queen pic does look excessively sexual, what with the leather boots, the cleavage, the nipple-rings, and what appears to be jewel-encrusted panties.
I guess I just don't see female dwarves as dressing up like that. They should be a bit rougher around the edges, more manly. maybe I'm just narrow-minded, I don't know.

word.

Their HATS, not the stalks .

the nipple-rings

Damn it, it was way over, here you're right.

what with the leather boots

Common DF clothing for me . But yeah, you're probably right about overall picture, small details and shapes give it up . I don't know, I just like to draw this way, is it a good enough answer?

P.S. I must say you use too much "I do" and "I don't" in your arguments. Word. I prefer to think "for each his own".

[Fault]

"for each his own".

AGH I was gonna say that, but I couldn't remember the saying.

I tried not to sound too condescending, but it's hard to diffrentiate emotions on the internet, you know?

I meant no offense, I'm just trying to give constructive criticism. I shouldn't try to force my opinions on other artists.

Their HATS, not the stalks .

YOU ARE A MAD MAN

[Sensei]

Mad as a hatter, perhaps?

[Deon]

I was unable to read your mood thus I've posted that "for each his own". I just don't want to make a grudge because of some fat chick, you know .

And of course I meant cap (pileus), I am russian, you should forgive me such errors . The meaning of "a cap" and "a hat" in russian is quite close, so we can use both in such case .

P.S. Actually, no. If we're going to translate it right and this:



is a hat, then we call those "mushroom hats".

P.P.S. Hmmm... Now I wonder how would a female mad hatter look .

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Not specifically Dwarf Fortress related, but it seemed appropriate enough.
An original character I drew in my typical animesque style, that I haven't much used in this thread.

You may now commence with the elf jokes.

[JoshuaFH]

I always pictured elves as being very dark-skinned.

However, if they're that cute, then I'm sure more than one person will hesitate to kill them.

Hesitate.

But in all seriousness, I think it's really good. I hope I get to see more work from you Sindayven.

[Fault]

not too shabby, sindayven. We don't see a lot of anime-style art out here, it's a nice change. reminds me of Eva from the fantasy anime Wakfu.

you even got the eyes right! I tried drawing in an anime fashion once, and I could never get the eyes all shiny like that.

[Sindayven]

Glad you like it.

Also, by all means she should be darker skinned, as she's a wood elf (rather than a high elf), but I'm a sucker for pale skin.

[Deon]

Ah, ol'good manga style . Me like .

Btw I am a sucker for a tan skin so we could have a small "competition". I will try not to draw flesh colored plump helmets, promise, promise!

Here's a quick sketch in photoshop regarding the new ability to grab slashed out guts in the new version:

"Hey! Give me my guts back, you drunken bastard!"

[Deon]

Actually this  joke is a backwards drawn pic of a soldier who helps a civillian to get up I've seen on some poster .
P.S. Also, if you wonder, I used my old old old old Duke Nukem 3d cd cover as a reference .
